This is a great screening technique for employing finance guys. Just ask "Can I lose money in this?". If they say "No", then don't hire them. The guy who lays out *all* the risks is the guy to hire. Smae ditto for network security employees.

Just the other day Nostradumbass pointed out to me that:
"Sollog on Wikipedia"
