I guess if I ever want to move to a lower risk style I'll have to try to give up YouPorndotCom.
Another possibility is to look at pictures of nuns each morning before the market opens.
Ah the hell with it, my luck has always been good.

Does this mean that an investor with a high risk tolerance is getting all his jollies from investing, rather than from sex? Maybe someone with low risk tolerance would be more interested in following various physical pursuits with his partner.

Is there a correlation between penile length and portfolio alpha?
Sounds like good material for a PhD thesis......

I think the study would conclude that size doesn't matter-- it's what you do with it that counts.
Don't get me started on safe withdrawal rates or portfolio churning...

I'm just pleased that I changed the original sentence in the OP from "Its coming clear now".

Diversification across asset classes, as well as some international...
Not sure about bondage allocation, though...

Your sex drive should match you risk tolerance, or is it the other way around?
