Hi Maurice, <<primarily interested in investing in people who create things which other people want to buy at a highly profitable price>>

We are having the sharpest decline in profit since 1930, because we, in the aggregate, bet and lost on people, just like in 1930.

<<I don't think I'd be a very good speculator>>
And yet you try, with the Q?!

<<I like things easier and suitable for somebody who isn't endowed with great ability, lots of luck and desire for zero-sum games of winners and losers [with the house taking a cut]>>

Sounds like Q bet, Mq:0)

<<So, it's quite different from other things in life>>

And so you are right, gold is different after all.

Chugs, Jay

Imagine yourself and the People Roman I type at your stand and other People, type Roman II, JUST DO NOT APPEAR. It's not the product, nothing personal, it's just that other people do not feel like buying anything anymore. They prefer to stick to something more precious slash more valuable slash less perishable than your XQY product... keep on imagining.
