"The Kiss of Death Mistake"

You replay the conversation at 2 a.m. She texted back fast yesterday. Today, nothing. Was that smile friendly or flirty? What did the shoulder touch mean?

Every hour you spend decoding her signals drains your confidence and hands her the controls. Women can sense that insecurity from across the room — and it repels them.

One of the "22 Rules" kills the obsession on the spot: assume she likes you, and act accordingly. Sounds too simple. Works anyway.

Her interest tends to rise to meet your expectations. Psychologists call it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I've been day trading some penny stocks lately with play money. I'm still a green horn with them but getting better all the time. I've learned some similarities about stocks and women. Kind of funny actually.

- Penny Stocks in this market are bottom of the barrel but you can still benefit from them on a short term temporary basis; as are most women in this market. Go short term don't expect much long term.

- If you enter a position in a penny stock, get what you can out of it and cut losses quickly. Don't plan on holding it for too long because its will likely go downhill and drain your resources if you keep it too long; same goes for women.

- The more penny stock you trade, the better you get at it; same goes for gaming women.

- There are long term keeper stocks out there but they are hard to nail down; as are long term keeper women.

- If you keep a stock too long and it goes down, that's called "holding the bag". If you keep a women too long you will be "holding her baggAGE".

- In stocks protect your cash; with women protect your heart.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

A penny stock is a non-exchange listed security. When a company is listed on an exchange like nasdaq or nyse, they have a lot more reporting and disclosure requirements. If they get caught lying, they get kicked off the exchange.

So penny stocks are a sea of lies. It's all smoke and mirrors. They go back on their word and don't live up to their promises. Your interest can be diluted without your knowledge or consent at any time. And don't contact the authorities when you get screwed - no one is going to help you.
