I was reading a financial blog yesterday and this guy was lamenting the fact that he had lost his ass on this bank stock by using margin and he kept buying more as it continued to fall. To make matters worse, on Friday the dreaded margin phone call came from his broker and the worst part was that his wife answered the phone, and then demanded to know what it was all about. He told her and he said she spent "a half hour slamming doors around the house, then she packed her bags and left." He thought she might not be coming back.
One guy replied: "Dude, that wasn't your wife, that was some hooker wearing your ring."
