My favorite memory of T. Boone Pickens went like this...

As an investor in the markets I was watching CNBC one morning because the price of oil had plummeted to $70 per barrel with no end in site.

They asked T. if he felt the price of oil would hit $30 soon as many experts were predicting.

He sat up in his chair and said, "You will see $100 oil before you see $69 oil!!!"

I thought, wait a minute, oil is plummeting and $69 is only a buck lower but $100 is a mile away!"

I bought with both hands and oil dipped a few pennies before it went to $102 per barrel!

The man knew his stuff.

Thanks T. thumbsup
