My two cents: I have some stock in BB stocks. I at least hope that they will do well. But that is another story. I am a new investor and quit frankly I don't have the money to buy the Yahoo's and the Dell's. But I can take a small amount of my "PLAY" money and buy several thousand shares of a BB stock. If I am lucky I will make a small profit all the while I am learning about the stock market. Heck when I bought my first shares of stock I did not even know what or whom a market maker was. I am still learning everyday. I also find out the more I learn the more I realize that I don't know. But the only way, (for me at least) is to actively trade in the market. With all this said I think we should all respect the right of Tim not to advertise a BB stock on this thread that he has started. There are many other places on SI to talk about them. By the way. I would like to publicly thank Tim for his efforts in helping me learn about the market. A very quick story and it is true. I had very hot tip on a stock. I was all up in arms and crazy to buy this stock. I also have had a very bad year in the market and I was going to spend the last of my savings in this stock. Well I Private messaged Tim with this stock which at the time he had never heard of and didn't know any thing about. He got back with me in a short amount of time and advised me not to get in this stock that it was to risky. Well if hindsight is a good teacher then Tim is a professor. He saved me what amounted to the last of my savings. Thanks Tim and to all of you that I learn from Lamar
