James, I know this sounds harsh, but let it be so and learn your lesson...what the heck were you doing with that kind of cash in one stock? Use the harsh reality of this loss to learn you lessons, take your thumps, punish yourself but then don't make the mistake again. You just learned the hard way, the bitter reality and cut throat place that Wall Steet truly is.

Sure Frankis coming from a warm and comfortable place, but then he has safeguarded his families' monies properly. You didnt. I don't mean this in a confrontational sense,but that you can not not make this mistake again. You will have to work hard to make the cash back and you WILL do better next time. But learn you lesson, now, today.

Good luck,
steve

If somebody invested a large portion of their life savings in a single high-risk tech stock then they must be very irresponsible. I would never invest more than I could easily afford to lose in one of these babies. To do otherwise reveals a get rich quick mentality that has no place in a good investment strategy. Anyway, if you have really lost a significant portion of you life saving I am sorry for you.
