Hey talk leader....I see that you are at it again. Funny how you now tout yourself as a short and yet you were the one going long on all the "dot com" bargains a while back. I don't ever remember seeing a post where you declared yourself as going short a stock at a certain price. Only useless rhetoric about where the stock was going and how you would think about buying in at lower levels. I just wish I had all your trading expertise so that I could quit this job cooking burgers and be a Wall Street guru like yourself. I lost $100,000 on GNET ? Hell, I wish I had that kind of money to lose, but alas, I am merely a low class proletariat in your world of lavish cars and women. Keep counting beans and surfing porn sites you illiterate baffoon. I can't wait to hear your childish, uneducated response to my post. All Hail Talk Leader...or "Stalk" Leader as the ladies like to call him.

the company has to make an assessment of whether an investment has suffered a "permanent" decline in value. if an investment, say, fell 90% then that would most likely be cause for a writedown. I sure trust that kind of assessing to a company that still maintains it'll be the first trillion-dollar company. hehe And that still has a "book value" in excess of a billion, according to QCharts. Speaking of trillion-dollar market caps, it would seem $1000 invested in it right now will be worth over $2,000,000 when/if that happens. $2,183,406 is what I'm coming up with. Or to put it another way, it'd only take $458 here to make you a millionaire. We'd better hurry. Only a couple of days ago, that million would've only cost us about $380.
