Hoatzin: and that's how I took it and it made me snort coffee out my nose -- didn't expect any PG-related replies to my mindless post, but humor is a good thing and I pity the fools who don't have a sense of humor and laugh really hard every day about something.

No problem. I thought it was a good one, and well deserved. Either way, water off a ducks back.

I have a cousin that has refused to sell. 759 shares from $16.77, now worth a total of $53.13.
I think he is the original, cut your winners and let your losers run.
Sold half his ENPH at a double, before it doubled again. Called him on the phone on the 22nd trying
to get him to buy some back at $9.16. No dice. Seven days later it was over $13. No, I had no idea it would
jump like that. I've put him on autopilot. He'll have to call me regarding stocks, he is just too frustrating.

Hindsight being 2020, which I am sure TIS management can see now, greed can work in different ways.
They could have easily sold $25/$30 shares back in 2016, maybe enough to fully fund their expansion with
zero debt, but I am guessing that the thought of "watering down" their holdings, kept them from it.
