thas funny........did you check out his other offerings? i'm almost tempted to bid on the Morgan with that hole....so i can make a cool necklace for my son's mother, or my boy....but i dont think so.
why are people SO LAZY when it comes to trading? i never understand that! Trading MUST be precise! i'm serious, trading is one of the oldest business's in history and it feels like some people just dont take it seriously. I thank God my first boss, at 21, just out of the Navy i was....he was a very straight up, taciturn man, who dealt in frozen and fresh pork, large lots....and he instilled in me, the discipline to realize, we're working in an enviroment where the profit margin is measured in pennies......albeit pennies on a quarter of a million pounds of warehoused primal cuts of pork, hams, bellies, butts, shoulders, etc.
and he would use futures to hedge warehouse holdings, as well as our ONLY clients, who traded cash meat as well, but also maintained high net individual speculative accounts. All these older men were mentors, who taught me how to spread trade....ie.....short selling bellies against live hogs, or vice versa...then i progressed to grains, wheat and corn, as well as crude oil.
These men, my first (and only) boss, and his colleagues were all good men, they were straight up. there was no financial tomfoolery going on, which i always appreciated, as a youth, being raised on the trading floor, where playing fast and loose with the rules, was the norm.
May i boast a second, share this with you men, many of you fathers? My son, for the second time, told his mother, that the most moral and ethical man he knows, is me, his father.This was an unsolicited statement he made, that was told to me, by that dear woman, and really rouched my heart, greatly. Though i am, like us all, flawed in some of my ways, i can be a light to my dear boy, an example in the midst of all the current dishonesty we see today, in the financial world, political world....the world.
THAT, i am proud of, and pray that this young man, embraces honor and honesty, in all dealings. Thanks for letting me share that, and forgive me any undue boasting. Have a good day guys, neil
