Hi Tim: I am sorry about the margin call. Sorry my Friend. But, look at it this way.... lesson learned. There is no substitute for experience and it's hard to really learn this market stuff unless you have suffered through some bad.

A lot of our friends have done a much better job it appears in staying off margin or managing it better than earlier in the year. That's great. It seems to me in reading a lot of the agonizing personal posts the past few days, however, that better asset management must be practiced.

Market is so dangerous, yet be so rewarding.

Take care. Hang in there. Stay smart.

Rick

Margin calls are horrible.
Good luck to you: afraid it's a vicious circle, margin calls beget lower prices beget more margin calls.
