Well-that's kinda the point. Buffett didn't become a billionaire by saying "Somebody please lead me and my portfolio around by the nose". Your &#147&#133quick killing,&#148 indeed. <g>

Still, if that's the strategy one wishes to persue&#133<sigh>&#133you might as well put it all on Red, double and go on Evens.

Or study, research, become experienced, learn from mistakes, get some accounting background, learn some TA, learn some business fundamentals, read some books, make some effort, do some work. Make good decisions, but make some bad ones, too. They help.

Or follow the PennyPinheads like a sheep, follow the FAMH, Dog House, and WACC threads, watch your money go down the toilet, then start over and do all of the above-except with less money than what you started with. "Investing" is a bit different from "Craps", believe it or not&#151really&#151honest&#151have I ever lied to ya'? <gg>

You must be quite desperate if you are asking me for help.
