No experienced person does; because he has experience.

TucaramaNaique, Ok, let me give this one last try. A few years ago, I noticed that an old man liked to sit next to the loudspeakers at the investment centre that I go to. So if I happened to be sitting near a loudspeaker, I would get up and offer him my seat. After a while the slightly deaf old chap started to befriend me. One day he said, "You seem like a bright young fellow, can you check for me if ABC co is a good firm to invest in?" I told him I would do so and gave him my opinion the following day.This continued for a few weeks. After three months it struck me. I figured out who the deaf guy was. The old man was actually pointing to me the good companies to buy but that advice was falling on deaf ears. I had not yet figured out that the old man had an excellent stock broker and was sharing his knowledge and experience with me, and anyone else willing to hear. Someone had sent me an angel. An angel in disguise! Despite all the signs and assurances, I nearly missed recognizing the deaf man. Mervyn1429Lobo
