The Cold Swimming Pool Phobia

Have you ever hovered over a cold swimming pool, dipping your toes into the water, fearing the acute shock your brains will endure once enveloped by the water? In many respects, I had this same problem, but with stocks. Of course it was dramatically erratic of me to swap out of VXX and cash in exchange for stocks that have already gone up. But if not now, then when?

Plus anyway, I still have 25% of my assets in cash, an oversized amount by any standard. The point is, I am in the water now, swimming around, doing handstands and shit, enjoying the chlorine flavoured taste.

The stocks I bought are, in many respects, Costanza trades– “awesome and amazing” by any standard within the field of high level speculation.

In the event the market should top out here, I will accept my improper timing with a grain of salt and move on. But, you must understand, to be paralyzed in the face of perpetual melt ups renders my talents as a stock picker useless, effectively categorizing my person as dead in the eyes of those who follow my winship closely.

Zombie Fly has returned from the grave and he is closing in on you with great expediency, in an effort to take a nibble from your brains.

    Please don’t pee in the pool, pal. I’ve been gargeling and squirting the water out like a Roman statue while doing double breast strokes and shit.

    Every time I dive in my pool, it’s hard to be humble. When I do the breast stroke through an underground tunnel and come up on the other side in a jacuzzi being greeted by two naked models with suds on their booties.
