I did great last year 600%. I don't expect to do that anytime soon. I'm happy with 10 to 15% a year to tell you the truth, anything over that is gravy, in my book. As long as I beat the market I'm winning. If you can't beat the market then your money should be in an index fund. Anyone walking around thinking what we just went through is the norm last few years is in denial, is having delusion or has failed as a student of the market.

Back in 97 I bought 140 MSFT puts on a DOJ news release. I thought MSFT would plunge on the bearish news. Instead MSFT went up. I lost 10k in a couple of days. I always thought that I had been burned by crooked traders....The recent tech wreck began with MSFT news, I have made back that 10k and then some. I guess what goes around comes around....scotty
