ParticipantAecetia: So the Earth has reversed it’s polarity? Is that why my toilet is flushing in the other direction now?
Just curious.

ParticipantSDR: It’s interesting that you mention Rivera’s strategy during that Steeler’s drive. Look back at the Colts – Bears Super Bowl (Rivera was the Bear’s defensive coordinator) and see if spot any similarities. He failed to pressure Manning during that game and Peyton chewed that defense up.
The coaches that prevail are the ones that not only meticulously game plan, but also take risks as well.
It’s like the old joke about the “Prevent” Defense: It only prevents you from winning! Football is not a game for the cautious or faint of heart.
Conrad Dobler. Man, that is a blast from the past. What a nasty SOB he was.
I think we just hijacked this thread.

ParticipantDaCounselor: I agree that trading and gambling are a helluva lot more fun than investing. Investing takes work!
When I handled that corporate portfolio, approx. 10% was for speculative investments, including CBOT-type stuff (futures, derivatives, etc). The point you make about having a hot streak (and/or a cold one) is very true. I went on a run trading futures (with Florida orange futures, of all things) that was amazing. I was up somewhere around 300% and started thinking I was some kind of financial genius when, as you say, the House asserted itself and promptly kicked my ass earthward again. Great lesson and one I refer to constantly when making financial decisions.
It’s amusing to listen to some self-described “expert” go on and on about gaming the system. The system will eventually eat your lunch, especially if you’re nothing more than a glorified dilettante day trader. And you’re absolutely right about that “entertainment expense”. It can often cost more than your entire portfolio.
