congrats -- you're a good person insofar as you don't look at your 15x return as validation of your brilliance or as a pedestal upon which to hoist your ego and intellect for all to see -- enjoy your good earnings and taking profits is probably a damn good idea

Jach, you don't know Yahoo's financial history. Softbank is primarily a venture investor in Yahoo. Most of the Yahoo stock Softbank owns they paid around $5 per share when Yahoo was still private. Softbank recently bought another stake in the $90's, as a move to concentrate holdings in strong hands so a hostile takeover would be impossible.
