So David...what was your profit in IOM? Lance.. Long time NPEC'r Big enough to change my life and allow me to retire at a very early age ....kinda like winning the lottery. I made a very large investment in IOM in 1995 and will never forget the day it closed at $54.00 on, I believe, May 21, 1996 after essentially a 6 for 1 split....couldn't believe my eyes. I sold enough to ensure my retirement but know of a another guy who, on that day, had $5 million worth of IOM, was very heavily margined, didn't sell and eventually lost it all...including his home. Owning IOM can be a very humbling experience. Who knows, with the number of NPEC shares I own, I just may be able to retire all over again. g Dave
