Comment of the Week:
This comment: by @DickFuld" in the post "Ask DickFuld November 2015".
@DickFuld any thoughts on writing a book? Also, can you revive the "Bleed Lehman Green" shirts? Or maybe create ''F*ck Paulson" shirts?
any thoughts on this hater's questions for you?I saw part of that video you posted and it upset me. I had a horse-toothed, know nothing man who knows nothing, NOTHING, about how the real world works question my intentions and integrity at my absolute weakest point to score political points with his room-temperature IQ constituents. I threw an SB to almost every post in this thread, but now I have to fling my first poo at you. After watching my responses again in the video, I think I was composed and thoughtful. Unfortunately, there is a rule that should never be forgotten: Never get into a argument with an idiot, because most people will not be able to tell the difference between the people arguing.
I'm not writing a book anytime soon. I'm still the most hated man in America. I've enjoyed a small Renaissance on WSO, but it is a small audience.
I'll see if I have anymore 'Bleed Lehman Green' shirts. Unless I can get at least 30 SBs on this post or 30 confirmed orders here, I'm pretty sure I won't find them.
