Looks like about 91% of Rinkies agree with you so far. I'm one of the few who answered "frequently". I tend to mainly visit the tables that comp you drinks (dividends) for playing long enough.

I don't think the stock market is as sure to clean you out as Lost Wages, but you need to know what you're doing before you commit serious money. I think of it more like a poker table, where you can win big or lose big based on unpredictable events but there are lots of strategic ways to improve your odds and limit your exposure when you have less chance of winning.

If I make enough trading stocks, I'll donate some of it to your scooter fund. Deal?
