Quote of the Day
“People right now are doing everything based on superficial feelings, and everybody in financial services wants you to believe that making money is a lot easier than it is, and that you can make money by doing what feels good..It’s not supposed to be easy, and it isn’t easy right now.”
(David Trainer)
