Tax selling is not as wise as it first may seem.

Say for example BNEZ gave you a $10,000 paper loss (about where I am given that the spinoffs are still worthless).

Take ~40% (max) to reduce your taxes. Thats $4000.

By taking it now vs. for 2000 you are saving the interest on $4000 for a year. Thats about $250.

I've got 75,000 shares. For every penny that BNEZ can move up my value changes by $750.

You see why selling this year is just not that important?

I've promised myself I'll just let this thing run its whole course. Maybe next year a miracle will occur and we'll get 5 cents a share in a buyout!
