Strudwick Quote #8

Quote from Strudwick in This Little Dick Went to Market

Strudwick: Solomon, what are you doing?
Dick: Vincent, Judith. Oh, gosh, I hope you didn't hear what I just said. I'm trying not to give you two a hot stock tip.
Tommy: Yeah, so are you interested, or aren't you?
Judith: Oh, please. If I haven't seen a detailed description of a company's financials, I don't want to own it.
Dick: I'm not asking you to own it, you thick-head. I just need you to buy some stock.
Strudwick: That's what happens when you buy stock, you thick-head. You own a piece of the company.
Dick: You're kidding.
Strudwick: Duh!

Dick: No, let me explain. Let's say that these eggs represent all our money.
Tommy: Uh-huh.
Dick: And these containers represent stocks.
Tommy: I'm with you.
Dick: Now, if one of these stocks is doing better than all the others, then we should put all our money in that stock.
Tommy: Oh, I see what you're saying. So we should put all of our eggs in one basket.

Quote from Tommy

Dick: All right, Tommy. We were lucky enough to land on earth in the middle of the biggest bull market in history, so it's time that we took advantage of it.
Tommy: And you expect to make enough money in the stock market to take Albright to Cancun.
Dick: Yeah. But if we'd found out about the stock market when we first landed here, we would own freakin' Cancun.
Tommy: Excuse me. I read all about it right after we landed.
Dick: Well, why didn't you say anything?
Tommy: Dick, I was thirteen-years-old, I wasn't obsessed with money. I was obsessed with boobs.
Dick: Well, why haven't you said anything since?
Tommy: Again, boobs.
