I think I was trying to say the same thing--only with the usual Lewin humor. I just finished my Nevada chip transfer to a spread sheet and happily discovered that some of my little beauties actually made significant gains. But lost in my message was the fact that this has been a fun hobby for me--limited only by my meager luxury income. But just as I've long given up owning a new Lamborgini (however spelled) I have also realized that there are whole passle of chips I'll never be able to own.
