6. I'm sure there are many people shorting....and I'm not sure why everyone wasn't on Friday right
when the earthquake happened. We knew it would get progressively worse.

I would have but I don't know how to :) I stick with the basic basics.

4. Step 1: Stop gambling.
There is no step 2.

Admit to the problem, and stop doing it.
