My family thinks it's a waste of time. However, as long as I'm trading quality stocks and making money, they don't care what I do to stay busy.
Since I don't flip stocks, I don't need to be on penny stock boards trying to convince naive people to buy the junk I'm dumping.
Hard to influence people enough to pump Coca Cola.
And yes, I am very ugly, but found a spousal_unit nonetheless. Go figure.
Just my opinion, of course.
