Elmer - Re: "This guy has lost money in nearly every month for the past 2 1/2 years on worthless MAD call options !
Just think where he'd be if he sold them instead of buying them. I am a firm believer that unless you have some very good insight it's a losing proposition to buy options. The sellers are the ones who make money."

He would have made a fortune selling calls, as you note.

SoryGuy has the uncanny ability to BUY the most worthless MAD call options month in and month-out over an extended period of time.

As you said, he's probably down at the blood bank selling another pint so he can buy up some more worthless MAD call options !

Elmer-

Ah, but Niceguy does have some very good insight. A couple months ago he opined that the market could no longer support the then $15 share price differential between AMD and intel. To date, he has been absolutely right.
