Obviously, none of you have attempted any significant small-business entrepreneurial undertaking in the past decade or so - otherwise you would not be denigrating me.

Been there, makes you see the way things are real fast.

BTW, I hope don't own any stocks, the markets are getting ready to drop over the next month to the October lows or lower IMHO. I wish you luck.

... I hope (you) don't own any stocks...

Nah. I'm currently BROKE, see?

I'm more interested in gold and extremely remote, rural land at the moment - and, you know, paying the rent and buying food and stuff...
