BLUE PLACIDOLA
Your compete MICRO*scope for today
You are the type of person who wonders why golf is played at such a hectic pace. Family and friends occasionally check to see if you have a pulse. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time driving to a factory outlet trying to buy either a birthday greeting card for your grandmother or a coffee cup commemorating yesterday. Be on the lookout for letters from the Internal Revenue Service. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter K, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 709639. Your preferred shopping venue is department stores. Your special symbol is the at sign (@).
Is this You?
As a Blue Placidola, you are easy-going and even-tempered, calm and composed. For you, the hectic pace of a crowded shopping mall during the holiday rush is nothing, it's little more than a tranquil stroll in the park. Life is good. Life goes on. Why worry. You are a happy shopper and you seldom fret over trivial details of a market exchange, in part because you are astute enough to get moderately low prices and relatively good deals.
This isn't me! What am I?

Playing The STOCK MARKETThe hazards of being a pedestrian are many. Of course we have a good chance of crossing paths with a rabid bengal tiger that has highjacked a street cleaner and intends to whitewash every pair of jogging shoes encountered. Or a throng of overzealous religious fanatics might try to slip fresh flowers into our hands and literature into our pockets. And especially when we amble through the financial district, we might be crushed by falling stock market investors who have mistakenly BOUGHT HIGH and SOLD LOW. While the actions of the bengal tiger and overzealous religious fanatics might be understandable, what's so almighty important about the stock market that would make investors place the well-being of innocent pedestrians in jeopardy?
