Well I just have to join the cheering chorus for VRIO. I dont have the $ (yet 8^> ) to afford the number of shares some others here do, but I am thrilled to be holding 220 shares. Loving it.
Also holding DCLK,AMZN,INKT,TSQD,TGLO. I am pleased to see so many others had great days as well!

It is funny to see how many people are talking about day-trading for a living. It is exactly what I am hoping to do at some point in the not too distant future. My dream is to be able to travel whenever and wherever I want to with the ability trade stocks. Whether it is my apt in NYC or a beach in the south of France. I have the usual doubts and anxieties but as I get better at this and more successful it is encouraging. Last year, overall I was up 100%, which is great but it could have been much better. It will have to be for me to do this for a living. Last year included some very valuable learning experiences though. I learned not to fall in love with a stock (TAVA). I learned to think more critically and be wary of hype (DGIV). I learned that there are crooks out there who will steal your money in a heartbeat with things that seem unbelievable (MTEI, which essentially was never really company that issued completely false press releases and directly lied to people over the phone and in person). It is a brutal world out there if you are learning the ropes. I paid half a college educations worth of dough to find that out. Although the stocks above (primarily the latter two) cost me I feel I am much more experienced and 'seasoned' now. I know there is alot I dont know but I am learning. In the meantime I have learned enough so far to become quite successful at trading. So far so good. Plenty of battle scars but I am winning the war.
I'll bet alot of people out there have had and are having similar experiences.
Anyway, I do love this thread which I really only started visiting regularly 6 weeks or so ago. Great people here.
