  1. tampa,

    What do you think you will do with the $37.50 you made this week?

    Well things are a little better around here this weekend. I agreed to clean the bathrooms, and take a job as a crossing guard until I get the Jack Hershey stuff down. In return she gave back my cable modem.

    At first I felt bad about having to make these concessions, but after reading a lot of the posts on Elite Trader, I guess I’m not the only one who has to clean the toilets to keep the wife quiet.

    There is one additional thing I had to agree to – she is going to deduct the cost of the Hershey Kisses from my trading profits. That’s a potential problem as so far I’m eating about 3 ¼ points worth of the damn things a week.

    tampa,

    I read your thread after a long time. I have a question.
    How have you been doing on this method overall from the point you started this until now?
    Do you post your profit curve anywhere? Should be very interesting.

    Well, I've made about a grand so far - not a lot of money - to this point the biggest benefit has been that I've stopped losing. The down side is that I've put on 41 pounds so far eating all the Hershey Kisses.

    Being to scared of the obvious early "short rocket", I passed and waited, and waited, and waited some more for a sure thing kind of trade.

    Finally one came along at 2:40. I grabbed two points - hey, it's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

    Or having your wife feed you cat food:D

    Tampa, sometimes the only thing I think that will make her happy is a divorce:D

    Actually, she was pretty happy with the job I did cleaning the bathrooms - though she did make me clean one of them twice.
