The problem with being a cheapskate, i mean value investor, is that growth stocks are never cheap while they are growing. The bank that I was working for in 1987 was one of the test licensees of Microsoft products at the time. I didnt have any money at the time but looked at the stock and it seemed very expensive at the time although i liked the products a lot. Similarly wife bought a dell computer in 1990 for $4,000. had she bought the stock instead i think it would have turned into several hundred thousand. I think the best we can hope for as value investors is to buy a good company when they stumble and then hold our noses and hold on when it starts appreciating like crazy. I did 1 and not 2 when it came to Disney and Apple. I hope I will have one more chance at this.
