>I think putting money in Cisco and hoping for a 5x return and getting a 20x return should cause someone to take half of the money and tuck it where it ain't going away, take half of the remainder and put it in the next Cisco and leave half of the remainder where it is.

Fwiw, if after a large gain one is reluctant to sell the stock, a decent tactic may be to start lowering the cost basis as much as possible. If the stock gets called out in the process, so be it.

This approach has worked great for me in the "post-bubble" years.
