Wow! Sounds like your picks are as good as ever. I've still got NXTL from the high 20s and a lot of the other networking companies with very low costs relative to today's prices in my long account. My trading account is half filled with dogs that I am embarrassed to say, and half cash. I have also been playing with a few cheap stocks where I am getting 25% monthly returns - but they are slow 'turtle' trading stocks, and they don't add up to very much money since I limit my exposure to up to 4000 shares each. But it's a niche that seems to work for me - given the amount of time I like to spend away from the screen. The only problem is the low overall dollar value. If I were to buy more shares, I think I would get clobbered if I needed to get rid of them all at once. I think I mentioned when we first started conversing that I did not think I would like sitting in front of a PC all day long.... it's too much like work - and with the kind of return I was expecting to make it 'worth' while, - I'm just not savvy enough, I guess. But I have learned to how to fill the trading account back up, and I'm working on that. As for the rest... I just want to have fun. I think I'll start another business that is all about having serious fun... There are a lot of things out there to do, that a lot of people would participate in (to have fun) if they were just given a little guidance.... and I am thinking along those lines.... I won't have time to check out the cove, but I've heard there are really large forests of sea kelp around there. I'm going to try to stop by Brenda's place on Monday the 18th, if I have time. Then I'm headed to Bonaire via Atlanta.
