Apple Feels 'Max Pain'

Its fun to listen to people who first started "investing" in the markets in the late 90's whine when their stocks don't shoot upwards everyday. You better learn to "play the game", as you say, because blindly dropping money into the latest thing and expecting to double your money every month doesn't work anymore. A solid portfolio combined with strategies hedging your investments against a slide are needed. If you can't do this then hand it off to a Mutual fund or somebody else who can.

Very interesting post Zach.
