Hi Chris, Glad to see that you were not upset about the joke. I was thinking about that later "I hope they don't take me seriously" <GG>.
Yes, knowing the possibilities of what can be done in the markets with the right knowledge, tools and timing can be a curse. I also take the quick profit when I can because I know that I cannot keep a close eye on what is going on, especially BBs.
Yes, Dabbling has cost me some money. I still have not given up on trading BBs but the lack of having stop loss orders has cost me some coin.
I don't think that you have ever told me about 1998. Did I ever tell you about losing 10k in 1987 while I was at work? I was also taken out of the markets in 1988 by a four day fishing trip, Ouch. It took me a while to get back into the markets but this time I am being more persistent in trying to learn as much as I can. Still learning the hard way with the BBs.
Thanks for the post Chris! I hope that I was able to tickle your funny bone rather than raise an eyebrow. :^)
