Well, you really made up a good story. You bought the share for your dad at $173 while he was on a cruise, and laugh at the first week right after, and sold for him at $162 with a blue face , hope your house is not a history either !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1) First , your dad is not a kid and will not need you to make a decision for him to buy or sell, even he was on a cruise at that time, he can still get the stock information with international long distance call or through internet , that is what I did when I traveled. Two weeks later , after Microsoft dropping over 10%, you made decision for your father again and sell . So, you are set to lose money. This is a good story, but I do not believe it. Well, I will help you to get your house back by buying 30 contracts of Microsoft year 2001 $200 at Monday's open. If you hold them till the expiration, you will make a profit of $1.1 million , not bad in two years , and I think you can still hold your house!!!!!!!!!!!!
