Photonics? One word for the greatest opportunity in the market today.

John Doerr, Kleiner, Perkins, Caufield & Buyers, and James Barksdale, who put up the startup money for Amazon & Netscape, were featured in a CNNfn story yesterday, about highly successful venture capitalists.

John Doerr and James Barksdale are kingmakers. Mr. Doerr was shown at the head of a boardroom table, speaking to Mr. Barksdale and the rest of the buyers in his firm, as he said, "Remember the movie, 'The Graduate,' when Dustin Hoffman, as a young man with his future ahead of him, turned to listen to his Uncle's advice for fortune?" Mr. Doerr was interrupted briefly as Mr. Barksdale, who also has his own venture capital firm, inserted, "Plastics." "Right," said Mr. Doerr, who took a deep breath, and then he continued, by similarly offering only one word as advice for fortune, in today's marketplace...

"Photonics," he said with a knowing nod. "Fiber," he continued, "We are still continuing to invest heavily in the whole re-wiring of the planet's central nervous system?.. This thing has got a long, long way to run. It's like we're'just in, a few milliseconds after the big bang, and a whole universe has to be created."

In my opinion, LightPath offers an unusual opportunity for individuals to invest now, much like startup venture capitalist groups, at very low relative cost. I believe that the example from, "The Graduate," is very applicable here.

Psst!? Ya got your future to plan for?? One word? Photonics. And, here's a bonus to help you get started?

LightPath.
