I also enjoyed the Russian proverb. Glad you brought it to this board's attention.

Many decades ago, Exxon had me attend a training course called Games People Play. I don't know if it is the same one now used as part of teaching game theory. But a few things stuck with me.

One was a slide that showed an attractive women in a bathing suit inside a large, clear, plastic bag. The caption read: "We all have our bags, and everyone can see right through them." So true.

Another was that one common game is "I'm OK, you're not OK."
Unfortunately we still see that in some posts.

Jim seems to do just fine by explaining why "He's OK" with some investments - and why "He's Not OK" with others while avoiding the "You're not OK" part. Wish we all did.
