People behave irrationally during panics. Through a little bit of cleverness on my part and alot of luck I found myself sitting on cash when Lehman collapsed.

So faced with the prospect of fiscal apocalypse or (I had friends pulling money out of banks) the buying opportunity of the century, I bought a bunch of equities that were punished by the collapse, and made a bunch of money.
