Absolutely not! <<Who doesn't?>> Real investors don't. That's it. Gamblers do, suckers do. Because they want to get rich quick - never do, though. Investors don't. They are not going to close the Street in two months, or you plan to die in two months? -g- Investments come along often enough that an investor does not have to gamble. Perhaps you personally were not "in the market" before 1995, but I can assure you that market was there, people bot and sold, suckers bot because they couldn't miss stocks going up, gamblers bot and sold because they like to gamble, and investors were patiently waiting for right opportunities to present themselves. No rush to waste your money to buy something for more than it's worth. Why? What for? Go and read Buffett's annual reports, you have absolutely no idea how he invests, nor what he would do. You just make irresponsible and uninformed statements regarding what you think he would do. "Gorilla" is an invention of an ignoramus, who never made any real money in investments, just wrote some books for suckers who don't know any better. Read a book written by a successful investor, like Ben Graham. Don't read books written by financial journalists or financial planners or former brokers, who have no idea how to invest.
