Sounds like your Dad is a wise man. Cherish your time together.
Wonder what he's gonna think about MMX. I'm one of those old guys (just turned 60)...posted on the other board the day that I opened a position with 4mil shares, "Geez, I spent years yelling at my sons, "Turn that noise down!"...and yet, here I am."
By the time you hit my age your realize that it's foolish to sweat the little stuff and/or the things that you have no control over.
I retired at age 52 and trade as a hobby.
As you young guys say, "It's all good."
Looking forward to PTEL in the future.
p.s. Found myself enjoying those iBox vids. :-)
