Samantha: Hi Tony, how was your day at work?
Tony: No complaints. The paperwork is really piling up on my desk, but I’ll catch up this week. That smells wonderful Sam.
Samantha: Thanks Tony. Hey, did you see the swing in the dollar today?
Tony: Yes, it was really crazy, wasn’t it? The stock market was all over the place.
Samantha: Yes, it really was. I thought about buying some stocks, but then I chickened out.
Tony: I’m glad you did Sam. It’s really tough to read the market these days. A lot of the stocks are so tempting, but they are so unpredictable.
Samantha: I know Tony. You know me though; I am not one to take any big chances.
Tony: Yes, you do tend to play it safe. That’s a good thing though. It’s better to be safe than sorry, right?
Samantha: Definitely! The Sampsons are in a really tough situation right now. They invested in a lot of high-risk stocks.
Tony: Yes, I met David last week. They had to remortgage their house. They are in a tough spot right now, but they will pull through.
Samantha: Yes, I think so too. Connie is so resilient and determined. She doesn’t give up easily. There’s no doubt about that.
Ouch! I cut myself.
