I did say his book is still on my shelf; he was obviously a tough kid (I

If he kept his fund customers out of the market crash of a few years
ago, even just partly, then he's one fund manager in thousands; most of them
have "hiked" blithely on, ignoring all the billions of lost $, ruined

regarding books, investment advisors, and heavy packs; as Ground Pounder says, "Be
prepared.".
