freeus...FORGET THE TAX THING!

Remember this tax issue blinded us during QCOM's drop. Do you really want to hold another stock that could take a 50% haircut to save 10% in taxes? I don't.

Even if you are talking about hanging around for the long term capital gains rate...
Forget that too.

California is still 9.8% no matter the term.
Fed would then be 20%...which is proably 10-12% less than your income tax level...not significant in my books.

This was a hard lesson to learn for me, making fun of Mike all the way down. Best to remember and profit from our errors in judgement.
