I have a feeling that once the rally in equities and credit (no matter how long it plays out) ends, we will realize that the patient has only been shot up with adrenaline as opposed to good old-fashioned bed rest.

I'm sticking to my $30k Mustang... would keep up with Rich's Viper if it were stock ;) Sideways at 70 mph on the highway is a bit of an adrenaline rush let me tell ya!

You can't see the property and don't have much time to run your numbers so it's definitely an adrenaline rush, but it's also not necessary to put yourself through that to get good deals right now.

Any shot of someone driving a car with the camera on the dash is a 1D.For $10-15K you could be set up with one of these cameras, lenses, a mac and Final Cut Pro and produce videos like the one Robert found.

The adrenaline part was enjoyable, but something about that process destroys parts of your conventional worldview.  

If you're born with a physical disability, a mental handicap, if you're born a minority, if you're born into poverty, etc, you are less likely to succeed than those who don't have these challenges.I'm not saying these people can't succeed (clearly they can), but it is much more difficult and much less likely.Just like if you and I were running a 50-yard dash against each other.

Splash and dash.

Hello Dash F.,1) I wouldn't choose a different name than the ones I've used.

On the other hand, you're in a well-worn Toyota RAV4 and have your permit on the dash when they roll up, you get treated like a king.
