Hmmmmm....

Interesting concept, Don.

I'm not 100% sure exactly what you had in mind with your remark.  Were you 
saying that we tend to be a resourceful group who can successfully do some 
stock speculation???  Or were you saying that maybe we should stick to 
tuning pianos and let stock trading to the experts???

I don't know if I might be stepping on hallowed ground here, but not all who 
profess stock speculation 'know-how' know as much as we may think they do.  
(Actually, that translates to many career fields.)

Normally, when there is something we are unfamiliar with, we tend to think 
that those who are knowledgeable about that subject are somehow special, 
that they know something that we can't possibly know or understand.  
Hogwash!!

I believe that many of this world's population are far more capable than 
they ever give themselves credit for.  It's more a matter of study and 
application of those things you learn.  To take this "stock thing" a little 
farther, I believe that there are quite a few among us that could easily 
outperform many of the financial indexes if we simply studied and learned 
and applied those things to the real world.

Other people don't necessarily know what you think they know.

Keep learning.  Use what you learn.  And if it happens to be making good 
stock trades, so be it.

Just my opinion.
