No, I mean in this case the risk side of the equation was disproportionately high for the potential return--the risk here was getting caught and going to prison... <G> >> But, UF, considering the "risk/reward" aspect, 250K IS small potatoes here. Not so. While we have some well heeled senior investors on this board, they represent a small portion of the tribe. The largest demographic groups are 30 to 45 year olds who are just entering their most productive investing years, and incredibly bright Gen Xers who have grasped the merit in ltb&h at an early age. From the private conversations I've had, the portfolio sizes range from low 5 figures up to 8 figures. I think $250K is well above the median portfolio size for this board.
