this is really the key issue glenn hj and william. i am not telling any of you anything that is not already obvious. but from the sidelines, this indicates that a guy who really believed a dream and gave a gallant effort, is scraping at the bottom of the barrel for what would have seemed pittance..... ps. he had the sense to buy his place during the mania just like i did. lol

Why not? This is a unmoderated thread. I can ask all kind of questions I want without the fear of getting the 'hook'! James, You have the right to ask any question you like. I did not say you could not ask. I said: "This requires no answer. " I thought that phrase was clear but I don't want anyone to have an incorrect opinion or a misleading comment from me. I lost a lot of money on high risk tech stocks. I bought them because I chose to buy them. I bought them knowing that if I lost the money, I would likely still have the same lifestyle. Some happen to be stocks that William bought too and that Mark has bought. I at times looked at those stocks due to the fact the above mentioned names may have mentioned. I did my DD, I chose to buy and I chose when and if I would cut losses. I appreciate at all times any input from someone when they are expressing an opinion in which they believe. I have no reason to believe that the stock we had in common did not have potential at the time of purchase. I have yet to see anyone pick every stock perfectly. Since I post what I bought and often when I sold them (I have not sold them all), I would think looking at the cost versus the proceeds one can make a conclusion without an answer from me. It seemed we started a basic concept of not mentioning the number of shares used in a trade. I like that idea. Some buy 100 or even 50 shares while others by thousands. I am not one to blame any financial error I have on anyone else. Laura is not suffering financially and has no lack of respect for my financial abilities as far as I know. I have confidence in myself. I try hard and it is clear to me I have far from mastered the stock market. I intend to one day understand the market better through continued efforts and will make my own decisions in doing so. Is that clear? Glenn
