PLAYING
The Other Man's Game
When lie makes the rules and specifies
' the conditions and becomes a contestant
with you, you haven't much chance of win
ning.
■ This is pretty much the way it is with
fluctuating stocks and bonds.
The big man: makes the rules and speci- :
lies the conditions, and wins because , the ; -
small man loses. If some one wins, some
;^u one is sure to lose; and you know the man ■ -
who knows his own game is bound to win.
\" Sum up your 'gains and losses on fluctuating'
P stocks and bonds and you will be surprised at what
your actual earnings are—if any. ,
Guaranteed, first- mortgage loans don't fluctuate.
They can't be manipulated. There is a specific ; ;
:".■"''!'. security back of them, and this security is con- . .
r , ,•' trolled entirely by the s person who owns it—there *
:"' ; " is no big man to cause fluctuations in value. , -
