Joey, At least you can afford Pop-Tarts and Budweiser. I'm living in a cardboard box under I-95, and every day I see this old lady open up about ten cans of cat food for the stray cats in the neighborhood. When she walks off, I go and fight off the cats for one or two cans. Hey, tuna is tuna, right? I don't get to enjoy much alcohol, but every once in a while, I save up enough money from washing car windows at the intersection to buy a can of Sterno. There are supposedly options on currency futures, but when I typed in the symbols appearing in the CBOE guide, no quotes come up. Do you know anything about those options, or have an interest in them? I don't understand futures well, but it sounds as though you can lose more in them than you invest? At least with options, that's not a problem, and it might not be bad to buy puts on the yen, if they are available. Of course, the question is if the dollar will be any stronger, or which currencies will do the best.
