SUNW announced 2:1 split.

I've owned four years now as part of my fundamental LTB&H portfolio.

I differ in great degree from Voltaire in his approach to wealth in this way:

I think there are many young people here ... late 20s thru 40, let's say.

Who seem to want to make it big NOW ... not in even five years.

Tom -- I believe you would agree that there's a huge difference in someone your age -- or mine, for that matter -- gearing their entire investing strategies on turning $30K into $2 million inside of two years ... it's that RISK thing.

AGE makes a great big difference. People 30 years old need to invest in something besides the mo-mo's. Something they won't touch for 30 years, let's say.

I know there are other boards on SI that address such matters.

V's Porch welcomes all (thanks!) but ... some here, including me, are NOT in your shoes, V. I'm sure they realize, as do I, your success and recos must be analyzed per the particular investor.
