...patience for prima donnas. Mondays are usually for travel to the next tournament; Tuesdays and Wednesdays are dedicated to practice, mostly with the short irons. (Without the heft to wallop man-sized drives off the tee, the girls have to nibble at par by polishing their approach shots. Their chip shots are deadly, and a delight to watch.)

And as an investment, most collectors have found art to be right on a par with the bluest chip stocks. Vermeer's Portrait of a Young Girl, recently on loan to Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum, cost $350,000; judged as real estate, it is worth $1,252 per sq. in. (v. $2.10 per sq. in. for the House of Morgan's Wall Street terrain). A Cezanne that...
