Before you use your bicycle check to see if: brakes require adjusting, tires are properly inflated or require replacement, screws. are tightened, chain guard is ef- fective, lights (front and rear) work, spokes are tight and none are missing.

Remember children may be confused between '"'left" and "right" particularly in emergency situations, they may make the wrong choice.

Investor, B, on the other hand, may not be interested in the income of his own behalf so registers the stock in a spouse or son or daughters' name for income purposes and trades for the capital gain on his or her own behalf. For the person who trades solely for capital gain, the best advice I have ever heard is this; work on percentage gain rather than dollar and cents gain, nobody ever went broke taking a profit.
