Bet you can get over with the stock market things.
Uncles Anties will always be persuaded to part their money in various ways. A little here and there and soon there will be nothing left.

When I first started investing, I read a lot. I chanced upon a book named
"A Random Walk Down Wall Street" by Prof Burton G. Malkiel and I was impressed then (and still are). Well, how to you name a guy walking down on the wall street?

But when I read more, his theory does not seem to apply 100% in emerging market. Nonetheless, the nick name stays.

**Savant** · 22nd Oct 2008, 23:22

I have that book... didnt quite agree with the theories.... At the end of the day, it really depends on what point in time you are looking at... a random walker some months ago would see great profit... as would a random walker see large losses now and possibly some profit in one to two years time again...

Like meerkats so that's how my nick came about

**shenzhenluohan** · 23rd Oct 2008, 17:35

Shen Zhen is the city where i live, and have lived for many years, also in Chinese it means "deep ditch". Luo Han is the Chinese name for Flowerhorn fish, my favorite fish.

Listen closely mate, if I wanted your opinion in a hybrids debate I would have posted in a related thread, this thread is "what does your nickname mean?".

**Cacatuoides** · 24th Oct 2008, 04:07

Ap Cacatuoides was the first breed of apisto I kept and have been going back to it no matter what other species of apisto I tried.....I still like Ap Cacatuoides till now

Apologies to HWCHOY and anyone offended. I didn't realize how hostile my reply sounded until i had a fresh look this morning. I should have chosen my wording differently. But my point still stands.
