Hi Chris,

Nice report. Thanks. FWIW, I chatted a few times with the instructor of the SA II class since I took his class last fall. Around December, I believe, we were chatting about NAIC principles and other items, and I asked him if he was buying anything then. Yes, he said. Men's Wearhouse.

He's the president of a local club, and he knows his stuff.

Other good news: I know Lincare. Used to own Lincare. And was even a customer for a short while. (Don't ask!) Anyway, I quizzed the rep quite hard, saw their spartan operation in person, came away impressed with their lean model, market dominance, and professionalism. And then sold the stock at $29 for a 55% gain.

It was the time of tech mania and uncertain healthcare futures and I was greedy.

Regretted it ever since.
