i met a nice woman yesterday. a niece of a friend. we talked for a while and the subject came around to investing. she told me she met a young guy on a flight and got to talking. turns out he was making a killing in internet stocks. claimed to have turned $40k into $1m in no time. now he just trades. he offered to help her do the same. she accepted. whenever she trades, she calls and checks with him first. she does what he says to do. she is up 25% this year doing this. she says that she is just using "play money" money she knows she could lose. HE remains fully invested, trying to turn $1m of "paper wealth" into $2m.
