sir - you have bested yourself ! i couldnt have said it better myself he should preach to us ? roflmao I agree with you that money is not the most important thing. As soon as I amass even 50% of your net worth (and it won't be from trading, that's for sure) I too shall join you in preaching the virtues of not overestimating the importance of the mere filthy dollars. BTW, I noticed that Bill Gates gave away some 3.5 billion dollars to charity recently. I was staggered by his generosity and I cried in gratitude that he's such a generous fellow (I think of him frequently when my Windows PC crashes in the middle of a critical trade). Thank God he still has 97 billion left to buy groceries. btw - i'm glad to see Datek's top management is actually ditching their own failed party line and are now ADMITTING what we've known for many a moon - there are execution problems ! who'd have thunk that ????
