All right, all right, ya so-called Libertariats! Take it easy! Here’s all we need to know about markets of all kinds, and the proper attitude with which to participate in them:

Scrub on over to the 50:50 mark and listen out to the end. No quick-fire schemes, no delusions of omnipotence, no orange-colored hair-weaves. Nope. The market is vast and uncaring, similar to Mother Nature. We know what happens when we think we are bigger than the Laws of Mother Nature, right? Yup. The big dirt nap, or at least serious injury! A similar logic can be applied to those instances in which we pretend to be bigger than the market (stock, real-estate, pari-mutuel, etc.). Breathe-in the awe, and know your role!

Thank you. Best wishes. Goodbye. So long now.
Selfishness, self centeredness – That we think is the root of our problemz. So my book tellz me. Character Building the key. Come along way and a long way to go. Racehorse betting has helped me a whole lot in understanding and accepting this. Just like the audio tape!! I like that one.
