Bob,
Thanks for your comments. Very interesting stuff. I'm a PowerBuilder consultant, billing by the hour (but some days I can only bill very little because I'm fooling around on SI so much).

I'm so hooked on the market that I have a goal to take a month out of my life this July and play the market as a daytrader (my current contract ends in June). If I start with $30,000 and can earn 33% for the month, that's $10,000 bucks--more than what I make for a month of programming work. If it's a bust and I lose $x then, hey, I simply get on the internet and look for the next consulting job. Because I'm willing to travel, the whole country is my market place.

Probably more detail in this post than anyone cared to hear, but this is my life I'm talking about here <g>

Good luck and best regards,
Chris
