very good -- this is so true >>There was simply no way to monetize all that paper, although at the margin, many sharp folks did turn that paper into real wealth. << Something else that interests me in the "psychology dept" is why folks don't act to preserve gains that have been cut in half or reduce by larger percentages -- do you know people like this? I have them in my own family -- they don't even think about the possibility of something "not coming back" and lock the gains that remain -- it is weird.
