Self Control - Laura Branigan

(GOVERN your emotions lest ye be governed by them)

For those that want the original version by RAF:

It is amazing to me the number of people here who still have money yet I have proven time and again they are emotional weaklings quick to give in to my pressing of their buttons. My colleagues that study behavioral finance tell me to thank god for such creatures - otherwise the rest of us couldn't profit from their feelings ;)

I don't think I am dumb, my IQ tests prove otherwise, I know I am not greedy, and certainly since I know who my daddy was I am no bastard. A prick maybe - but don't be hard on Zeus - we need people like that - their rash actions will gives us Spock types the edge each and every time. Lets see I have broken el mat and easily pressed his emotional button, max90, zues, ork - god the list goes on and on - these emotional weaklings have run to SI BOB begging to ban me from SI and IHUB they are so lacking in self control.

emotional creaturers will fail - Chen I have gotten under his skin a little I think sometimes - but he is definitely a world class investor able to govern his emotions unlike some of the lesser creatures here (snicker) What is it he often says - fear, panic, and greed are your friends. Those emotions will sink your competition if you can govern them in yourself.
