It's why I didn't hesitate to tell the cop I'd kill him if I'd have shot him. I'd have made sure he was a goner...


One of his 20 plus year clients was a friend -- a retired doctor - ultra conservative people -- the kind of people that saved all their lives and stayed in the same house -- and drove simple cars... Henry was 70 when he got the call telling him he had NOTHING....

Think about that -- 70 years old -- happily retired enjoying life one day - the next day you're wondering if you can eat. Rhodes went to their kids college graduation -- and his wedding. He KNEW he was wiping him out.

THUS --- NEVER put your eggs in one basket -- which is why I'm not all in one brokerage even though it would be easier and cheaper. And why I invest in different stuff... real estate etc. Not just the stock market.
