For the last 9 months I have been urging everyone I know, practically every day, to buy Q. Some bought, some didn't. The ones who didn't usually said something along the lines of "It's too expensive, I'll wait for it to come down" , or "I'll wait for it to split." The ones who didn't buy, all now realize they've lost a fortune. The ones who bought, thank me every time I see them. In any case, my sister has stocks like Wcom, and Disney etc. (you know, big cap stocks with famous names). When I told her they were dogs, her answer always was, "I'm in it for the long haul, they won't be in 3 years." (And I always answered, "Good, I'll buy them in three years.") Anyway, she did buy Q, and I finally gave her the manual for Christmas.
The interesting point to all this came when the Q recently broke "700." Her husband's response was to say they'd sell when it breaks "$1,000.00." To which she replied "No, it's a Gorilla!" So I guess we've made one convert.
