Hey, at least you came around, Jim! Can you imagine being like some of these financial advisors who positively refuse to see what's in front of them? I find it amazing. With the volatility involved, I can halfway understand people being leery about inet investing if they can't watch their investments very regularly. But IMO there's no excuse for a financial advisor to continue advising someone to this day that they should not invest a dime in ANY internet stock. That advisor should be watching out for the volatility.

With this particular friend, a couple of weeks ago I laid out a case as to why I thought EGRP was such a strong buy around 20. He finally asked the AntiInternet broker about it and was predictably told that investing in EGRP in the low 20s would be a mistake. Much to my surprise, my friend took a position over the objection of the broker. He's up about 5 points, 20-25%, as of right now.
