Have you ever noticed....

[Ducy]

When it rains....it POURS!

[Browser]

Metaphorically or literally?
I'd say "yes" to both.

Of course. It Rains, Pours, and there are droughts.

The key is to captialize on the extremes............
Monetarily speaking of course...Hedge your bets in other
words. That is a cruel lesson in life as well as business...
what's bad for some is bounty for others. Nice weather
report though Sera. LOL

[sera300]

I don't bet...monetarily speaking. Only go in for the hot shot!

Weather? Nice! Life? Always ups & downs...ALWAYS HAVE TO SMILE! Then life is much easier since you roll with the changes!

Risks are for those who lack talent, insight, or have true knowledge. Solid planning and then capturing/riding the ebbs & tides. Risk it all? Never. Know what you are capable of and make it work; therefore, capturing a market in prime investments are keys to gaining. There is also solid income which must be preserved. Risk is good if one knows what they stand to gain or loose; solid income is the preservation of wealth. Never NEED to sell since markets fluctuate and are risky; long term investments ensure you never loose it all. Ride the waves... It rains, pours and, droughts just have to forecast the economy well. Need to know how to gain and what can be lost if forced to sell at a "poor economic". Knowing how to is essential and diversification! Gold remain the standard. Know how to build and have such talents? Capture the market...but be able to hold assets without having to force selling!

I think the intent was lost in the translation. I think we are talking about
different aspects. But nonetheless good for you.

Perhaps...the one pitfall to IT---intent can be lost in communication!
