more power to you. if i were young and have the knowlege i have now, i have
no doubt that i could accumulate a fortune. but, when i was young and had
time to use the magic of compounding wealth, i knew little and lost more
money trying to invest than i can ever gain now. so i have had to accept
this with the comfort of knowing that if they will accept it i can pass on
to my children the knowlege of how to do it. something my dad could not do
for me. now, the question is will the kids accept the knowledge i can give
them? sorry to say, probably not. oh well.
