<<< But, do you really think that a $15k investment now, will be worth a million bucks in 7 years>>>> No problem. Starting now is critical,tho. If you read the first 300 Dell posts of 1996 the arguments for Dell overvalued, hi P/E, prices wars,dropping PC sales, and political uncertainties were all being used then and still are today.And Dell has not in recent years, been a low-priced stock, running maybe $50 to $170/share. The next two years will be monsters for Dell, after which there are some uncertainties which can arise. If you wait 6 months to begin investing it will very likely take twice the 15K amount to make it to $1 mil. IMO you would do well to use $5k of that amount to buy Leaps. Pay attention to Don Martinis and other advice/ideas which can expedite your operation.I will repeat that $20k was turned into $2.1 mil in one year by buying calls and selling puts on Dell. That requires a major brokerage account with cash,trading authority, experience and confidence. It has taken me over a year to use calls with confidence, I am not set up to sell puts, etc, so I cannot use that route, and don't need it to reach the $1mil mark. But it would be well to learn the route since sometime, somewhere, everything you learn is useful. Sig
