Leo,

What a great idea! To share our DGIV experiences. I bet each of us has a very interesting story!

I first heard about DGIV when it was at 43 cents. Did I buy it? No. I bought something else. Next thing I knew...DGIV was at 60 cents. Did I buy it? No....I held onto the something else. FINALLY when DGIV was at $1.25, I said...this is ridiculous....and I bought in. Had to sell most of the other one at a loss to do it....but I took a deep breath and just plunged in and did it. I really felt that DGIV would go higher....I just didn't realize HOW MUCH higher.

I sold some of the DGIV when it was at $3.75 for a triple in order to diversify and get into other things. The other things fizzled, and so I had to rebuy as many DGIV shares as I could at $6.00. Then I bought more the other day when it dropped so suddenly to $5.75. Felt like I was receiving a gift. Of course, I bought at $5.75 the very day AFTER my cousin bought at $7.25.

Of course, my wudda cudda shudda is IF ONLY I had bought in when I was first told about it by Shark when it was at 43 cents and then HELD ON, but I didn't and so I'm happy with what I do have.

One thing that hampered me was the pressure that I had knowing that I would have to withdraw money a couple of weeks ago in order to pay off a debt and get money to live on for the summer, as I had promised my daughter that I would take the summer off and be with her more. I finally took a deep breath and sold some of my DGIV shares...reluctantly, I might add, when it was at $7.50....only to be happily able to buy back some at $5.75 (couldn't resist) and still have enough money to pay off the debt and live on through July. So, since I still have August to cover, I decided to put some of that "living money" on a some of the other stocks I like....ICVI, INFE, TSIS, and JAWZ. I will tell you all right now that I will be trading all of those stocks at one point or the other this summer...but the remaining DGIV shares are ones that I have promised myself and my daughter (since she owns some of them in a custodial account) to HOLD through infinity and I backed up that promise to myself by ordering the certificates. Still haven't received them yet though, so I don't guess I could sell them now even if I wanted to....but I don't want to. The ones I have left are still enough to make me a millionaire.

Anyway, thought I'd tell my story to show that even if somebody really truly believes in a stock, such as I do with DGIV, that sometimes external circumstances....such as paying back a debt...and having enough money to live on....will sometimes still force a sale, even though the person doesn't want to sell.

Thanks for listening!
Juanita

I will be happy to follow on this one Leonardo.
I started at aprox. the same time as you, did the reading on the thread and the digitcom site.

At the begining I was also more miserly than you (vis a vis the share aquisition process), always chasing the stock price from behind, until...I called Mr. Chin on the phone and was able to speak with him for some 20 minutes, then I broke my piggy bank.

It took me a long time to understand the mentality and role of the thread leaders (my problem, not theirs).

It took me even longer to try to grasp the MM -Mondo Mondongo- antics, still having trouble with this.

I feel very well about this investment. My only worry has to do with the great Kahuna announcements, who should get my cardiologist's bill: Byron Glenn or Macker.

Well, I guess it's somebody else's turn
