zetazeta,

You might consider this......

In Las Vegas, many of the "off the Strip" clubs advetise a 98% payout on their slot machines. What you are suggesting is that on Wall Street one can go long or short. Wouldn't that payout average out to be only 50%, minus the vigorish?

I stand by what I say, Las Vegas is an honest swindle compared to the Wall Street racket.
