    perhaps incontinence underwear are covered.
    it might be useful for some traders whose positions are too leveraged.

    now address the issue of free in a serious way.

    Since were discussing the cosmos, I'm sitting here with the intraday holy grail. Now that I have this machine cranking out money, what do I do with the money.

    So I thought I would support my community and open a restaurant giving free food and creating a few jobs. Turns out that it destroyed jobs, sucked the life outta wallstreet, etc, etc.

    I can dream, can't I? Sorry man, gonna have to charge for the underwear.

  7. Priced in silver it would be even higher. 1 oz of silver in 1935 was about $1, so .49 would be about half an ounce. At todays price of $29 per oz, underwear would cost $14.21

    If you feel that the price of underwear is prohibitively expensive, then you may wish to consider a time sharing arrangement with some like-minded people. I'm sure they'll be able to find a spot for you.
