Robert, I didn't call you stupid, and I surely don't care if you make money on stocks in a bull market. All any of us can do is try to profit by the experience of others and learn a bit from our own experiences. In the summer of 1965, I invested my entire life savings (less than $ 5,000) in call options on Polaroid, IBM, Texas Instruments and Xerox. I made 12x my money in 3 months and thought I was the cat's meow, a real hotshot investor. So I continued to leverage my investment in additional options and speculations - and lost it all when the l966 bear market arrived. You sound like a smart, young guy. You also are arrogant and, I would expect, a bit too confident as a result of your option success. Maybe you'll be the first hotshot in history to continually make money in call options time after time after time. If you are, I'll buy your book. Just don't get convinced that everyone on the other side of the ledger with you is STUPID (your caps).
