jweiner, you said >>I have great respect for the level of thought on the thread! This immeasurably enriches the mundane task of accumulating our fortunes by becoming marginal owners of the tools of production.<<

I wanted to say something to that effect, but you said it better.
It also strikes me that all the considerable brain power here
has so far failed to make anyone rich. Just guessing there.<vbG>
Since getting rich is the objective, what personal attributes
does it take to achieve that goal?

JW,

Hey, if we become successful investors, maybe we can become philosopher-kings and speculate in really important ideas and not merely in shares. <g> Back to the day job in a minute!

It surely ought to be ample psychic reward, but these "miracles" are often the result of years of R&D expense down the drain and failure. They argue that we need to make 'em rich enough to tackle the next "miracle"!
