I wanted to take the time to thank everyone that has sent their support over the past week through this blog and through e-mail. It means a great deal to me to have my extended “web family” support me at such a low point in life.
My father was great at everything he did, especially running his restaurants. He loved the market and traded them in since the 1970’s. He lost interest as the late 1990’s approached as the “technology stocks” never really meshed well with his strategy. I was first introduced to the market by my father and even helped him do some basic research when I was a teenager. I remember researching companies such as HP, MSFT, Intel and Oracle before going off to college. He taught me to buy as a stock was basing or catching support above the 200-d m.a. It was a simple strategy but one that works to this day. My father was also the first one to teach me about options although I have never really hit my stride (yet).
He will be missed as he always had a smile on his face and was one of the sharpest men I ever met. He could tell a joke or respond to anything faster than most but I’ll never forget how he could solve a math problem in his head with lightning speed and accuracy. He was the life of the party and that may have cut his life short but I can definitely say that he lived a fun and full 58 years. He would also ask me what is taking me so long to get back to doing what I do best. So with that, I will try to catch up with my newspapers and possibly start writing to the blog tomorrow.
Thank You Again!
