MaoXian Means Take a Risk
Wednesday, March 20

Wet, Wild, Wall Street

NYSE, 2002.03.20.

I visited the Forbes gallery today. It was a lot of fun because Malcolm Forbes collected a lot of neat stuff: early versions of the Monopoly game, thousands of toy soldiers from all different eras, and his collection of toy boats is most impressive of all. Kids would go nuts in that place.

Afterwards I went down to 100 Wall Street to visit a day trading firm and was not at all surprised to see the place filled with intense, prematurely balding young men. However, I was surprised to see that they trade listed stocks exclusively, taking advantage of the SuperDot execution system. "Trading is the toughest way to make an easy buck."
