Edited on Sat Dec-22-07 11:57 PM by Stuart G
I'm 61. Heard about Democratic Underground through a friend.. But I just read this book........
..Interesting story, about this war hero. Bill comes home from war, WWI, and invests in stocks and makes a bundle. Great investor and researcher. The rise of a great fortune. But he hits upon bad times. .. After blowing it all in the grain market, Barley and Corn, he then gets most of it back, and loses again. He goes down the tubes, and is just about homeless. His wife, Lois, who was living the good life with him, has to go work in a department store. Bill drifts.. Finally, he meets this Doctor, Bob. and the Doc helps him out with with his new business. They become very successful and hit it big. Great ending...Makes you feel great... .....I wonder if anyone has read this one?
