Tony- I think a huge congrats. goes to you and your PALM call from the IPO day.. You called it a turd/gadget maker when it was bidding to insane levels, and it never looked back. It still amazes me as I sit here, and the changes that finally took place thats bringing this market to its knees.. selloff after relentless selloff.. Kinda reminds me of the days when we sat on your private site watching them bid stocks like STMPS, ETYS, ZIXI.. I recall one day looking at the cnbc most actives, and it was littered with all money buring trash, up 30, up 50, up 60.. insane moves.. Funny thing tho- 2-3 years ago, when I was honest and told people I was getting killed trading stocks they all were ready to accept that, and tell me how the broker THEY use blah blah blah.. Now, those same people have lost all that profit and ALOT more, and they refuse to believe IM making money- but more important/sad, they refuse to listen to me when I talk about managing your money, and allocation etc etc.. When I ran into you here on S/I a few years ago it didnt take too long to start listening.. I think thats the oddest part of this entire game is people dont know shi* about money, yet they are reluctant to admitt/change that..The best move I ever made in the last 7 years was addmitting I was gambling/uneducted with the markets and I started listening. ... problem is, making the money back I lost takes time if you do it right.. Losing it was almost over night :)
