Re: If I am wrong, and get crushed like last year, I will take up my former work as a computer consultant. And what is your current work? Joe

Astarte, let me give you a 'little' experience of mine, I have been burned twice because I believed the stocks I bought would eventually return me to the promised land, and I believed to hold it (well, actually, my wife told me so...), and I was very unhappy, I gained not money but gray hair, bad mood, this went on for 3-4 years, I was an unhappy person inside. In late 1996, I finally decided that enough was enough, if I wasn't made to be rich then so be it, I took big loss (really big!) and walked out the bad stock and I started looking other opportunities and stayed more alert because what I have left is not enough for another burning, I must not perform the same mistake. In 1997, I started recovering by choosing leaders; In 1998, I am fully recovered and into black the first time in my 9 years investment life but most important, I am a happy person again. And now, I am not only happy, I am dreaming again. What I want to say to you is life is short, there are times in life you have to cut unhappiness and sadness so you can look forward and be happy again , of course, if you enjoy where you are, I have to rest my case here... Regards.
