You bet I would. I'd love to be able to sit on the beach all day and drink marguritas. Sign me up!

Maybe because it's a rigged game and the "people" at the top are in control??
Keep "telling" yourself that. Buffett started on the bottom founding his own investment "firm" and putting "everything" he owned on the line. Go "back" to your 9 to 5 drudgery??

"the game is rigged"? you sound like a bitter liberal who wants everything for free. It dosn't work like that, at least not yet. Buffet worked his ass off to make the company what it is.

I plan on buying some "penny stocks" right now, leaving them alone for five or 10 years, and just seeing what happens. Not a huge risk, but there could be a nice gain. I personally think it's a great time to buy stocks if you've got a little money you can afford to lose.
