The Gods Must Be Crazy

How do I explain all of this money? When Mrs. Fly takes a gander at the statement, she might report me to the proper authorities, fearing I’ve gone over to the dark side and partaken in some Wall St. shenanigans. Mrs. Fly is not one to skirt the law and will certainly not be an accomplice to one, husband for 17 years or not.

Truth is, I’ve been blessed, following numerous offerings to the Gods (the old and the new). They’ve answered my prayers and slain my enemies, turning them into meat to be cooked and eaten (no cannibalism).

I know you look at YELP, IMMR and CXO and wonder “how could this be? How could one man, apparently mortal, be so right over a short period of time?” The answer to that question, my friends, as well as many others, is none of your concern.

As I write this, the market is coming in a bit and IMMR is a whole point off its highs. I do not fear the unknown because, quite frankly, I am in possession of a time machine. I zip through time with reckless abandon, making bets along the way.

As for Mrs. Fly, she will remain in the dark. I will hide the monthly statements and whenever the subject of ‘our accounts’ arises, I shall change the subject and distract her with things that appeal to her gender, such as gossip, vampire movies and/or the prospect of going to the Short Hills shopping mall for ‘fun.’

            Nope, I am actually in a rush – leaving for Winthrop, Mass. in half hour to see my 80-year-old mom and to enjoy a long weekend on the beach! I guess I just have a lot of natural energy.

    my wife (married last year) saw the statements for the first time on a really bad month….about had a panic. the amount i had lost was more than she even thought i was worth. I shred all statements now. Agreed, never let the wife see the statement, and don’t pitch the bitch.

    IMMR broke through to new highs. Short swings will take some profits but it’s definitely not done here.

    Right on schedule here comes the hubris. Time for a Fly asskicking. I predict a 10%+ drawdown in your accounts within weeks.
