The first gentleman that I worked for after college, my mentor I guess you could say, made the statement to a successful businessman that we were doing tax work for-"never invest more money in the stock market than you are willing to lose". In other words your investments should be diverse, with only the amount you are willing to lose be invested in the market. The market is volatile, subject to sudden and unexpected change.

I think the same could be said about the money we put in double guns. Don't invest more in American doubles than you are willing to lose. The market is volatile, subject to sudden and unexpected change. Buy what you like. Like what you buy. But don't put more in than you are willing to lose.
