Shameless beg part 2:
Details: I am a fulltime licensed dispensing optician, since 1978, going into my 18th year at my present job. Am 51, have hit the pay ceiling while living costs have crept up. My wife, who is legally blind, has been a telephone operator/ information specialist at the same employer for 16 years full time. We live frugally but are still able to put back only $50 to $100 a month for investing and still have about 2 years at this rate 'til we can begin investing.
I have been in the school of hard knocks investing dribs and drabs and occasional small windfalls since the early '90s and have pissed away about $30,000 in the process. We need a chance to do it the right way- no margin (except for the necessity of having a margin account to enable me to short stocks when opportunities arise, but still no transactions over my cash limit), and short-term trades (intraday to 1-2 weeks max) only, taking small gains as I can.
Please help. I can email you back a signed promissory note for you to sign and mail with your investment in my future for those of you interested.
Thanks again from the bottom of my heart!
