In reading postings today from Markox and Kevin Walsh in particular, the feeling I have is FAMH was more of an investment than a gamble. Investing is not gambling.... some stocks are more of a gamble than others.. but if we were here to blindly gamble, I'd go to Vegas and bet $20,000 on a toin coss, heads I win, tails I lose. THATS a GAMBLE. The way you state it, everything in the market is pure chance. Forget research, forget DD. Its all a gamble?? A gamble is throwing a dart at a newspaper page full of stocks and investing in the 1 it hits. I also got the feeling from some of the sellers of FAMH stock on this thread today that FAMH disappointed the sellers so much that they broke off their love affairs with the stock. A "Golden Rule" of stock investing is NOT to fall in love with a stock. So why dont you stick to your own rules babe? You have stated many times on DGIV "Oh I dont care about the rules, I am in love with DGIV" Dont come and preach to this thread, the opposite of what you do on a different thread. A bit hypocritical ...... Like the old saying goes...."If you cant stand the heat, get out of the kitchen, Barney!" Once again..pleease......... You dont need the money in YOUR FAMH investment because you have plenty of it through all your hard years of work. So you can let it sit and ride out the "GAMBLE". If you lose it all, no skin off your nose right? There is more where it came from. Your playing by a different set of rules.. dont preach here. If daddy gave us all the $$$$ we could throw $20,000 in FAMH and "stay in the kitchen"--because we have tons of money to throw at all our other plays. But thats not reality for most of us. Sheesh such bravado...lose 10K on FAMH and what does it mean to you? Nothing. For others that is 3-4 years of savings from work. Try to get some perspective Mark(ox5)

Hi Jane-About Mark,Kevin etc,lets be honest here those guys as much as I can determine work full time with jobs outside of their market activities.They trade to better themselves financially however for the moment it is not how they earn a living.You on the hand,have being doing this full time for awhile instead of going to college you trade for a living and by your own admission do it exceptionally well.This is what I gather by reading your posts,etc.Do correct me if I am wrong on any account here.The point is that comparisons are never justified,everyone has a different situation and different objectives and investment goals here.Jane,I really admire you but please have compassion,comments like standing the heat in the kitchen do not empower people at all.Respectfully,MiriamsSon
