MG, Re: Going Naked thru the Jungle

Keep in mind my favorite quote: The Jungle awards the cunning a bounty of the foolish unaware. Doesn't require that you be stupid or a squirrel, just the wrong place at the wrong time. But it is an interesting question: Puts or Calls. Think I'll watch!

I could see what you were attracted to. I just wanted to provide some fabulous TB FA on the issue. It really does amaze me how Mr. Market has decided to put the credit card companies on sale; but, I really do believe it is a derivitive related issue. These folks wrap these "obligations" up and sell them on the secondary market; it's a great trick normally. But then, the term "derivitive" has received a really black eye. Think I'll watch!

Then I have no choice, until the ability to play cc's is in place.

That's All Folks!

It really is a great feeling to be sitting in cash! I actually got to debate with a friend yesterday about noon, and all I could really say is that is that I made this decision a month ago. Of course, at the time, all the indicators said that life is good! Squirrels need not apply!

Then again, life may prove me to be a squirrel. I'll just put away some nuts for winter. The more I think about it, I'm happy to be compared to one of these little critters.
