Be honest now. I know you would not have spent that $600 you miserable miser <g> That's no good. Uncle knows what he is doing.

You should focus on making money and not worry about receiving a measly $600 from the government. You think small and you're a pessimist. That's why you read Trillion Dollar Bowel Movement and buy Swiss Francs.

The world is not coming to end. Think big and be positive. A winning trade starts from within.
