Nah. Your teaching method is probably best. You had just inspired a memory. 

Someone once said to me that the stock markets were like gambling at any Atlantic City casino (not an uncommon perspective in my old neighborhood). And I replied. Ah No. There are real companies who receive financing for real products manufactured throughout the world. I told him true, many people use the markets like gambling, but in reality, its how we can finance a modern world with smartphones, HD tvs, and now large 3D printers capable of constructing bridges.

Being from metro NJYC, I always enjoyed the markets. I believe they gifted me with a way at looking at the news. Here is an example:https://steemit.com/life/@machnbirdsparo/cryptotrends-general-public-vs-bitcoin-ethereum-steemit-and-bitshares-march-2-2018-newsywire

I began as a teenager comparing the Wall Street Journal and New York Time stories to better understand the truth. I don't always go so deep as to analyze the way one might in a collegiate paper. There is still value for me in the cursory reading of many related stories over numerous sources. :) Hope you enjoy.

Alas, I feel alone in perceiving information in this way. I have been calling it a NewsWirey- well since before this happened.

Even had a couple of online "NewsyWire" projects/websites but only found a couple of people who enjoyed them.

BTW I am a conservative and hold partnerships and long term investors in the highest regard. I love the dividend structure.
