STOP LIVING IN THE PAST !!!!!!!!!

1) What I lost on SYSF was the profits that I made the year before !!!!!!!! After all was said and done, it was approximately a wash...probably a small loss....

2) I've since made many times that amount on other stocks while you have sat on your hands and watched CPQ go down the toilet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think my SYSF experience (both gains and losses) made me a much better trader/investor....The past few years I've made trading profits far exceeded anything I'd done in past years....It almost seems too easy now....I have been extremely fortunate, and being in the middle of the biggest bull market in the history of the world and the Internet explosion hasn't hurt matters any.

I know it is unlikely it will continue to be this easy to make money in the stock market, but I really feel for you and others who have missed the HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE opportunities the past 2 years by being in CPQ.

Jimbo.
