Hey! Don't go shouting my name out everywhere, I like to keep a low profile. You don't see my image in the glossy magazines like some kind of cheap hooker do you? Mind you I made the cheap hooker too, you know. What do you think? Not bad for a diversion once in a while, eh?

Well, my child, as you know from the principle of universalitatione creationis, I am in all stocks and bonds except the pink sheets. Yeah, verily I say unto you, the pinks sheets are the handiwork of the prince of darkness. He maketh them trade and the prices to be vexing to the people who have not seen the light. Yeah, any man of goodness and virtue who could support his stock and wanted not to do evil, would not trade thereon the sheets of pink. For if the company issuance were upright and their intentions pure as the snow in winter, they would have their securities tradeth where the price would support. It is said by some that the good hide amongst thieves when they are scorned by other men, but when a man is well, he travels about in the sunlight and is seen by all men. If you live among lepers you will be known as a leper.

Of stocks and man's values and his greed for gold I say little. Gold I made for his pleasure as I made Champagne and silk shirts.

I say unto you, that while the clouds are not in the sky the sun shines but only briefly and if you wisheth to know of things well of places far away, then go there and travel about the land and thus know the men of far off places as you would know your family close at hand. For placing bets on games you know not well is the wisdom of fools.
