I told an uncle of mine to do the same with IBM in the mid-80s, but he just kept everything the same. Since he's single and doesn't spend much money, he just watched it evaporate. He's sure happy with it now, and maybe I'll inherit some of it eventually. <g> It's very tough to give advice to relatives, even when it's a no-brainer such as your uncle's situation.
