Good strategy! That's honour and I would do the same! For me I'm bored and awhile back hit midlife crises, being competitive I've achieved all I wanted and by 35 retired. Wrong move, can't retire early! Tried everything and got bored, so went back to work, got bored again, so I tried the share market, and this is exciting! I'm the type that if I want something I'd go as far as work in that industry, if I build a house I'd want to design it, build parts of it and even sell houses part-time to understand all about it. So for me now it's not even about the money just the excitement of seeing if I can beat the market and my winnings are used to bet against friends in our share trading group. Of course whoever makes the most profits pays for a yearly business class flight to where ever we want to holiday. But that's the fun we have. Our group only has 3 guys so it's not that expensive! Point is, I can sleep bcos it's just a game, not to show off I have $$ or whatever, but be warned by the hype you see on forums because some ppl here ramp for their own benefit, I got burnt in the early days and lost 100k. Although I've made it back and then some, it's still a big lesson. We are all here for diff reasons but always have a plan IMO. Anyhow shot Melb weather and alcohol making me ramble on abit too much, apologies. DYOR NN

Hey NN, if you think Melb weather is shot, come on over. Had a bright sunny day and the high was minus 15C. Currently minus22C at 8:00p.m. Waiting for one of my stocks to rise tomorrow and I am coming to Qld for a month. Although my daughter says close to 40 in Cairns.
