Amir,

My broker called me this week and thought I should add some stocks since they are so cheap right now.

I asked him what he thought was cheap and two ideas he came up with was Xcel and Quest. Interesting both of these are my utility providers. My comment to him was how are these companies going to pay off their debt with out going through bankruptcy and then we had a discussion of how much debt was on the books. This guy was surprised and ended up thinking cash was not all that bad. These young brokers are going to get an excellent education but they probably are not going to be around to graduate or use the education to help people. <g>
