My statement had nothing to do about investing for others etc. I'm a former Morgan Stanley broker btw.

No problem, I'm glad I was wrong. You have nothing to be sorry about. As you know the written word can be interpreted in so many different ways. I made an assumption that was waaaaaaaaaaaay off base.

Perhaps just a matter of semantics.
