=head1 NAME
IPO::Shareable - Perl extension to get rich quick
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use IPO::Shareable qw(:NYSE);
my $ipo = IPO::Shareable->new($company);
$ipo->is_internet();
hype $ipo; # dangerous indirect syntax!
my $shares = $ipo->invest($LITTLE);
$ipo->inflate($HUGE); # Note that HUGE is not really a constant
$ipo->sell($shares); # may need to use Time::HiRes to be fast enough
while ($on_way_to_bank) {
laugh();
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The implementation is trivial, and is left as an excercise for the reader.
(Forgive me, this was too good to pass up.)
