Hi John, its me again.

This article represents part of my feelings for investments.
tempoitaliano.net
Here was the situation at Lucent and T in Feb 2001. If we think employees and investors were unhappy then, consider what its like today....
A $200,000 investment in LU is now worth $24,300
A $120,000 investment in T is now worth $19,000

And those original dollars were what was left after this happened before Feb 2001....

<<<What's more, workers ? past and present ? have seen their retirement dreams crash along with their companies' stocks. AT&T and Lucent , two of the most widely held U.S. stocks, have lost enough market value in less than a year to wipe out Coca-Cola's $142.4 billion market value nearly 21/2 times over.>>>

Those who were planning to retire on millions in stock savings cannot even afford to buy a good car.

And also makes Dell look like shining star...
