F&E CPAs. There's about a month until taxes are due. I like our new business doing the tax returns for athletes. The tennis player is over the net income target he set. Capitol gains were earned by the Washington Nationals baseball player. What about the hockey player who only scores goals on deflections? Let's call it "tip income"! And the speed eater who consumes dozens of hot dogs in minutes? Well, that's "really gross income." |

Football is like investing. It's good to have a diversified portfolio. A team should use a balanced mix of run plays and pass plays. And sometimes the quarterback is smart to accept a sack rather than trying something too risky. Right. Take the small loss and move on. A defensive player getting a finger on a pass can have a big impact. In both football and investing a tip can be a real game changer. But some things are different. Football has nothing like a T-Bill. There are no guaranteed returns in football! |

Stock Exchange. I don't worry about whether or not stocks are going to fall. I worry about whether they're going to bounce or go "splat" when they do fall. |

Jack's mom is angry that all he got for their cow was a sack of magic beans. Some "stock trades" take a little bit of time to show a profit. |

Tax Preparer. I'm working on my client's tax returns. Mars, being the "red planet," is claiming a business operating loss. Jupiter, with all those moons, takes deductions for almost 70 dependents. And earth has no new nations this year ... so no "capitol gains" to declare. Did Mercury lower his taxes? Yeah, he's eligible for a huge solar energy tax credit! |

Value!! Super stack pancakes $1.99. 12 Ultra tacos $3.50. Big deal burger 2 for $1.25 with fries. M.D. Big slice Pizza. 3 slices $2.00. I'm always looking for a bargain to make my food budget go further, but my doctor says eating the cheapest things is causing me to gain weight. You're penny wise and pound foolish! |

My buddy Frank has been struggling to control his weight. Frank, you're eating doughnuts! I have to --- in these tough economic times doughnuts are the one investment that provide a guaranteed rate of growth. You also ate a big dinner last night! It's hard to watch what you eat when it's dark out! Okay, I admit it --- I just don't have the willpower to stick to a diet. It's a case of the weak inheriting the girth! |

Take this exit, Frank! Exit 18. View. Life if pointless. Everybody is out to cheat you. Altruism is just a means to gain some selfish benefit later. Let's go, Ernie. You need to read the map more carefully --- That was a "cynic view," not a "scenic view." |
