http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/europe/05/14/austria.family/index.html Bad News seem to be hitting TV stations & "the google" as often as we hear about more write downs. Anyway, i hope the article reminds most here about what happens when people take things to the extreme - take a step back once in a while, appreciate what you already have (as in capital preservation is key in trading) while focused on your goals. âIf money is your only hope for independence, you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience & abilityâ â Henry Ford Regards, Metals Trader
