 Phil, when your job causes pressure because the wrong decision might mean your company loses half a BILLION, I'd say it's the sort of pressure few of us can understand. I'd want A LOT of money to bear that pressure day in and day out.

 No, surely not! Whole tens of thousands!? Merely for making their company several tens of millions?

 America is coverd by about 5 big insurance companies (much like The Uk is insured by Lloyds)
 All 5 of these companies had insured not just the producers but the services that suround this business.
 It is not just against accidents that insurance is for it is for hundreds of different things
 They also insure the rest of america.
 All of the sudden they have to payout billions of $. The shareholders take note and start selling their shares at anything so not to lose out on their stock values. The rest of america then starts either cancelling payments or demanding their money 400,000,000 want their money that doesn't exist you are in big do do
 This all happens in the markets in a matter of minuets. You don't have time to research the history and
 Now do you sell your clients shares and cut your losses or do you have the balls to tell them hold on to the shares and start buying them like mad?THE SHABBY SHABBY FOUNDER0
