   A lot of people go broke trying to guess the system,
   imagining they will Get Rich Quick.

   Solid stolid boring STOCKS are probably yer best
   long-term investment. They often pay semi-decent
   interest and their value adjusts for inflation -
   'Paper Gold', so to speak. If they go down, they
   usually come right back up and more within a year.
