Didn't Livermore die broke, from a self inflicted wound?

"Tough to outperform with frenetic trading. Livermore was right. "

OK, I admit it. There is a curve where I make less money by overtrading. But at the other end of the curve I make less money by undertrading. Go figure.

Gary, As the mutual fund manager who still holds the record (set 14 years ago) for the highest turnover in one year, I have a problem with Jesse's comment. Especially as he died a bankrupt. Of course, I plan to do the same thing. I would love to max out debt right before I die. Of course, not so much that I die at the hands of Pasquale the Loan Shark. <g>
