Phone Call

My dad called yesterday. Here's how the first part of the conversation went:

Dad: You'll miss me when I'm gone.
Me: Oh yeah? Why is that?
Dad: Because I'm making you lots of money.
Me: Really? How?
Dad: Bidu went up 87 points in the market today, and I just bought you lots of shares. Wooh!

My dad is my go-to person for all things financial. Especially my 401(k) account. He's basically my financial advisor. Actually, he's more than that. What do you call a person who decides what stocks you should invest in and then does it for you? Oh yeah, dad.
