My pleasure Peach. For me having some "conservative" long term tech holds and on fire internets for actives, works well. Each time the market corrects (not a pullback) I add one or two more to the long term holds.
Holding stocks like IBM, INTC, MSFT, etc for years pays off. Not as fast as a GNET but you don't have to worry that much. Buying a good one in paper makes sure I don't freak (Rule one of investing "Tho shall not freak").
If you look back at the corrections we had during the time I've held these, the return is not bad for buying and forgetting. The important part has been what to buy and when.
