A little rant from the king of the daysleepers: 30k to 100k, sweet...but I wonder how the hot hands this past year will do in a bear market? Will they correctly identify the start of a correction and bail, or will they trade all the way down and take them- selves out of the game? I too was able to triple my money last year, but I have come to beleive that trading, yes trading is a fool's game. How can this be? Well I posted the answer on the e*group thread awhile back...in a nutshell it is commissions. Trading is folly--there is always a good chance that the fella on the other end of the trade is even more clever...and we already know that the company collecting the commission has the best plan of all. Go back and look at the things that made you the most money, maybe yours were solid smart trades always in good investments. One of mine was MINE, that is something I never should have touched, that it made me money was just dumb luck. Another: GMGC--If Microsoft had not thrown 5M at the company, it might never have been discovered. NEOTW...an Alzheimer's pump and dump. Crazy. I have a message for all the gen-xers, and I'm one too, who have put together a nice grubsteak playing the markets this past year. Take your gains and go back to school. There are only a few really good reasons why we were put on this earth...for sure one was to get laid raise families and be good consumers, but the other more important reason is to learn and contribute to the body of knowledge created by humanity. Most of us are probably too dimwitted to every say anything original...but we might as well try. Well, I got off track for a second, however here is my prediction. History repeats itself--we are getting every day closer to a cliff, and it looks just like the 1920s from my viewpoint. Convert those trading gains to some investments--value stocks or as I said, going back to shcool (the ultimate investment). Buy stocks that will weather the plunge, or get into cash. That is what I have done, and it is my free advice for the night. --Mike
