>>Open season on those less fortunate. What a country!<< Good observation and recap of the trauma, August. In observing the irrational behavior of the net stocks it is good to remember that there is a lot of human tragedy out there, both up and down. I am from the school of thought that holds everyone accountable for their own actions. However, the online trading brokerages, CNBC, Blodgett, Mary Meeker etc. should at least feel slightly guilty about the mania they fed, at the expense of those who did not understand the risk. I lost a lot but would never put my family at risk (except at risk of not getting the island). My sense is that the people on this board are similarly rational, I hope so.

August, you should have been born in Sept. Yours is the longest post I've ever read here, that really said nothing. A case in point >>Then, there was the story of the globe-trotting thread-billionair, James. Who, after transfering his billions(actually it was under 100k, and then it turned into a >300k profit) to prophet Williams by shorting AMZN last year. August, your full of shit!! Your reading skills need to be improved on. William has done great, and so have most of the other investors here. This is a game of being to handle both up and downs. Why can't you? I don't recall you ever discussing your real position here, so if you need a hand out? Then, please just stick your your hand out! Ps How I had to come out of my retirement?? My biggest concern was trying to figure out, If I could live off my Amzn gains, or try to avoid a talker like you, while I'd prefer to communicate with a good listener. Here's some advice, you talk the talk. Now, you need how to walk the walk, before you grow up. Regards The guy that Amzn, amazon'd.-;))
