OUCH on DELL

You could have bought 4000 shares at .25...

You would have had 192,000 shares w/ splits,
which would be worth around $17 million today, eh?
Pretty crazy. I can kick myself, how I didn't see MSPG at $4
a year ago, it went from $4 to around $150, then split 3-1

A $1000 investment in that would've shown $75k+ today.

I don't even wanna figure what $1000 in IBM or MSFT would have done over a couple of years, anyone want to figure it out?

Well, that's the thing, when it was at .25, nobody knew where it would go, same with MSFT. Only the rich people have the ability to TRULY buy and hold, the rest of us don't have the means or the discipline
to do that.

pps Someone please tell me a stock under $5 that is going to split SEVEN times in the next eight years.

If you find it, let me know LOL
