Heres whzt its like to own a boat. Stand naked in a cold shower, and tear up hundred dollar bills.

You don’t want to be the boat owner. You want to be a friend of the boat owner. Cost: 6 pack of beer for a few hours on the water.

—”Stand naked in a cold shower, and tear up hundred dollar bills.”

Years ago a friend had a seat on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE).

He said the test was to crumble a one-hundred-dollar bill in your hand, walk down the street, and drop the C-note into the first trash can you pass. (About $600 today)
If you so much as turn your head back, you FAIL the test to be a trader.
