From AOL to QCOM,EGRP,IBM, T (and a Cadillac) About 18 months ago, I invested a big portion of a small inheritance in AOL. After the stock increased over 1,000 per cent, I had difficulty sleeping. I slowly starting selling off shares for smaller positions in QCOM (purchased at $50), EGRP ($50), IBM ($165 the day before earnings), and T ($50 last week). I also bought my wife an almost new Cadillac, which we'll drive tomorrow to a Mother's Day dinner. I still have twice as many AOL shares as I initially purchased but now have no problems sleeping thru the night. PoorRich ps: I wish the other AOL-longs all the best but didn't have the nerves not to take profits.
