Question to this thread.. I have never bought and IPO stock on its second, but neither was I impressed with an IPO stock like I am with ASKJ.. The concept is simple but oh so helpful for a computer research nerd like myself who spends 18 hours a day on the computer.. I have done shopping and even found everything.. ASKJ is now my 'genie in a bottle'.. and by the way I was in those stocks at close to those prices.. for all of a month or two. Came back to GNET at 35 for a few months but otherwise there is absolutely no one I know and I've conversed with hundreds that's held any of these stock from those prices until now.. unless they went into a deep sleep like Rip Van Winkle.

Actually what is funny is that my cleaning woman who had been with me for three years, I told her about YHOO in September of 1998. Knowing she knew little English I helped her buy 300 hundred shares I think it was in the 30's (calling the broker and arranging a trading account for her which was her savings from the Dominican Republic).. She is the only one on this planet I know who has held those 300 shares. She held it because she didn't know enough to trade it or sell it, until she quit about 6 months ago and is now going back to school and learning how to trade.. she could give us pointers.
