Proposal Rally

Last night I proposed to my future wife, yes I know it was on April Fools, but it had to be done. Obviously the market approves of my decision, so expect stock prices to move even higher today.

As you know I went into cash right before the melt-up. Yesterday I bought [[FXP]] [[SMN]] and a bunch of [[BIDU]] calls.

I will be back to my regular scheduled program tomorrow.

The ring was complements of [[LEH]] shorts

    first off, CONGRATS!

    secondly, what were you thinking on April Fools? You want to have a reason to back out later? “Sorry, honey, that was just a joke.”

    What makes you think she didn’t appreciate the opportunity to back out later as well.

    “Sorry Ragin’ Cajun, honey, but that “YES”…well…how should I put this…but, April Fools!”

    What does you first wife (iBC/MadStocks) think about all this? Any jealousy?

    Congratulations!

    Awesome Cajun!

    A successful marriage is not easy to maintain, but it is worth all the hard work.

    Let me give you one bit of serious advice: Keep her on that pedestal, worship her, and never stop, no matter what.

    Secondly, go ahead and show her your porno mag collection so that you can get that fight out of the way.

    CONGRATS CAJUN! like I tell all the newly to be weds: why should you have it better than me?
    Well, its not really that bad, matter of fact, its pretty good most of the time, like dating. And, kids are a blast! Plus, if u loose $ in the market, you can just take some of hers! All the best, trust you both will have a long, healthy and prosperous life together.

    Hey man, congrats. I second what Woody says except I’ll add that he shows his age by talking of “porno mags.” Dude, you write for a blog… the Internet was built on the back of porn… get with it. If you need to know where the good sites are, talk to Danny.

    I don’t have any advice as far as marriage goes. Just be good to her.

    Don’t forget to sign a prenup. If she turns out to be a bitch, she’ll try to keep the LEH shorts and leave you with the BSC longs.

    Congrats, though.

    Just like the market has many sayings that ring with elements of timeless wisdom, so there are sayings regarding marriage. Enjoy learning about them and creating a few as well!
