This guy is insane...most people at that age should be on a beach or with their grand kids..$20M in margin? Question is, would he still be holding if he was a NEW investor at $43 ? Imagine the margin call...when we hit $26

My favorite quote from WB Michaels in that story: "You don't look at price/earnings multiples," he says. "You look at what the future income stream is going to be. Then you take everything you've got, leverage it up your you-know-what, mortgage your dog, your wife, your house, put it all in Dell stock and sit down and relax." Oh yeah - my previous message was wrong, he had $49 million in Dell stock, not $42 million... (at the time of the interview anyway...)
