But then a loss pencils better tax-wise than a charitable deduction anyway…right?

If they really wanted to make $$$$, they would be investing in real commodity opportunities like the spark spread between the price of retail electricity and natural gas….not racing each other for the title of the Bigge$t Lo$er with the utility rever$e auction proce$$.

Does that sound unkind? It is not.

Unkind is following thru with good money after bad when you should cut your losses and look for other more straightforward investment opportunities.

My 2 cents/kwh.
