Wow, CREE has FINALLY got my attention!

This is the oddest coincidence. I was just telling my husband the other night about a commercial that just starting airing on television. It was a take off on those diamond "show her how much you love her" DeBeers ads. Anyway, the tag line of the commercial was something like "instead of showing her you love her, just tell her and instead of giving her the 10K ring, give her 60K for her retirement.." or something to that effect. Now that may not go over well with some stepford wives out there, but I could totally relate. What I found so funny about it was I've been looking at new rings lately and I just can't bring myself to spend 10 or 20K on a ring right now, because I see it as 30 or 60K several years from now. I can just see myself looking at the ring and saying "if only I had bought 10 or 20K of CREE when it corrected in the spring of 2000.....oh well."

So now it looks like I can "self reward" with a dazzling Moissanite and pick up the shares too.....Such a deal.
