Joanie, You are so kind, I guess I had a few lucky calls, finding GNET, NETA, NSOL, my TEN INTERNETS lists, ETC. Boy that ETC. is really something. One can never have enough of that ETC. I've made a few bonehead moves also but I try to look at them as the price of an education.
It is funny now but when I started investing in internets was a while ago and back then 90% of the people on the old board thought I was nuts for investing in internets. It was an education when you could get away with mistakes without getting BILLY JACKED to badly for it.
Remember the GNET 24 rule? Damn if I just stuck to that rule and invested in nothing else, I'd be buying the fifty four percent stake in GNET not Paul Allen.
Speaking of Allen, here is the beauty of holding GNET now. If it drops much lower I'll bet anyone that another MAJOR comes in and offers GNET shareholders a sweeter deal. In stocks loyalty is about as long as a dollar.
I mean let's face we all left AOL PF boards for a reason. We use GNET's SI for a reason. I've always said B. Gates or M. Dell should buy GNET, then boom, along comes Paul Allen. If the market gets wacked GNET should hold up fine. I know if it drops much I'll buy more shares.
With the right methods with interenets if you do your own home work, have some good friends making you think and don't get too greedy, one can really make a killing on internet stocks. Enough money to buy a cement pond. Why should one be happy with a 15% return on a YEAR as some tell you that you should be, when you can double your money, over and over if you try.
You just have to know you can do it, make it a goal and then do the work. Next thing ya know, you're sitting around the cement pond sipping on some of Granny's orange cream soda. Yeeeeeeeee doggies.
Thanks Joan for the homework stocks. I think the market has a good chance to get wacked good next week and I have plenty of powder thanks to that Yellow Dog Pup. They keep me one step ahead of the market, they do what no expert on Wall does when it comes to market calls. I mean for how long have I been posting their calls? Amazing, dogs, they must have some sort of sixth or seventh sense. Look at what just happened. Everybody on Wall Street it seems is saying a close above 10,000 is a "slam dunk"and the Yellow Dog Pup said no, take the money and run.
Speaking of amazing today it just jumped into my head why Susan got a 909 double post on Techride the other day. Her stocks (DCLK,ETC) are about to do what? I think it was an omen from Techride to Susan. There ya go, plain and simple, the 909 magic that happens on this board. The last great gold rush in this country there were the "49ers", today in an era of internet gold we have, the "909ers". LMFAO. 909s to all, BLUE
