The child is allowed to play on the floor in the patients room and also in the waiting area, and where do those sweet little hands go first? Straight in the mouth, with all those lovely germs - emesis, blood, urine, feces. Is it lack of education or just being lazy? I guess I must have done pretty well, none of my children or grandchildren have tubes!!! I don't believe in the 5 second rule.

I will forward the information on S salivarius K12 to them; hopefully those who have not had tubes put in their eardrums may benefit.

Yes, I am a big fan of Buffett's 10 rules to wealth. Basically, I don't play in anything I don't personally know or use. As to knowing when the bottom occurred? Only God knows that answer. I used a formula from that idiot Jim Cramer that calculated the value of the DOW, and if I recall, that number was somewhere around 4500 as the lowest it could go before a total collapse. Moving from 14000 to 6700 was too extreme. I figured that was my event to trade; if the market went lower than I might lose a few bucks, but if it didn't go higher, the economy would be in serious trouble and what value would the money have anyway? So I just guessed that this was a good point to enter. I also learned a very important lesson (back before I discovered Buffett) a few decades ago, and I Farkled $20k. That taught me more about investing than any cash I've made since -- don't dabble in things you don't personally play with. Hi John,

Actually aapl bottomed out in Nov. 2008 while the Dow did not bottom out until March 2009. I definitely agree with you that disasters can be an opportunity for investors; I just don't want to Farkle my 401k. Lee:

OMG! by John Lawlar http://www.thingstheydontteachyou.com/archives/24/comment-page-1#comment-137 John Lawlar Mon, 21 Dec 2009 05:59:58 +0000 http://www.thingstheydontteachyou.com/?p=24#comment-137 Lee: I am glad to see that you were able to cash in on aapl. My one observation is: How did you know Dow 6700 was the bottom; certainly not in August 2008; and for every aapl you choose correctly there are many more that would lose. However, if your main point is to buy when everyone else is fearful, then you would be exercising one of Buffet's theorems: Be greedy when people are fearful and fearful when people are greedy. I look forward to sharing ideas with you. Lee:
