    I'm an independent investor. I make my living from the returns on my investments. I work at home, in the northern part of the San Francisco Bay area. I spent most of my career as an executive in high-tech, although I also spent time in banking. Down to one kid in university now!

From today’s “Ask Fleck” (reader emails on Bill Fleckenstein’s site): “Fleck……..My B/D is going under after our clearing firm NFS (owned by Fidelity) made a margin call upon repricing CMO’s held by my firm. This seems like the real thing because if Fidelity is repricing, everyone else is going to follow.

I’ve spent over a year preparing for trouble and its still going to be damn painful. However, at least my clients and I will be survivors in part thanks to information provided by you.”
