<Caricaturana>: (24) Cabs as stocks: It's not going well, my horse is failing, expenses consume me, I'm dying of hunger. — My poor Bertrand, how stupid you are! Exchange your turkey-hen for a thoroughbred, your old 1200 quid carriage for a tilbury, your livery misery of a jockey's silk, go to it... Capital thrrrrrree hundred thousand francs! Doughty deeds, random tricks, will increase your out-goings, lessen your gains, you'll recoup your losses in abundance!! — In abundance of what? — In abundance of shares, fool!!
