Quote from oldtime:

goddamnit what do I have to do with you kids? 1% of my money owned amazon, and that was just because they didn't want to end the year admitting they had missed out.

how many shares of amazon did you finally own indirectly. i will bet it comes to less than a 100 shares.

don't lose sleep over it. just enjoy the weed and the weekend

probably less than .000001. I was very poor back then.

I did happen to pick up 100 shares through e trade at 8 and some change which I sold for 320. But everybody did that kind of crap back then.

That's why I don't think any amateur should trade stocks unless they can devote at least 16 hours a day studying them.

I never buy a stock anymore until I have paid somebody to do due diligence on it.

I'm not a stock trader, if you are, more power to you. I don't mind giving up a few pennies the rare times I buy or sell.
