Oh my, sorry, this is funny. But it works.

Sometimes you have to look ahead and know when to "park things in cash." You don't always have to be in the market; you're going to get burned if you're always putting yourself out there, thinking everything will work out on its own.

It's not about getting the payoff time and time again. Sometimes you have to know when to keep your dignity and your desires, rather than lose them to unseen forces.

See? It works. I like it.
