I am willing to overlook all that if you really are a wealthy woman. You do realize this is something of a red flag, I hope. And not funny since you brought up the wealth angle first! Silly you.

However, considering we are about the same age, I am willing to overlook all that if you really are a wealthy woman. Dude, sometimes things that appear expensive in the market are that way for a good reason, an above market rate of growth for example. But I try to always suspect hidden liabilities and/or a marked slowing in the growth rate around the corner and then attempt to look for something that would still hold value in the worst case, while being prepared to cut losses quickly if it goes the wrong way. I was a turnaround play breaking out of a well formed base, my husband was a slow consistent grower that had a long history of paying an ever rising dividend. He got the better deal, but he's a better shopper than I am. But he employed a very tight stop which I came within a teenie of triggering. I have to admit, he was a positive change from my previous buys which were all grossly over valued mo-mo plays that were impossible to get out of fast enough to preserve capital.
