Yes!
I got shafted! I'm just laughing, though! I knew it was too good to be true!

I thought I had just become a multi-billionaire
Oh well...back to the grinding game

To be honest I was more worried about warren buffet he is 93 years old, imagine his reaction seeing his stock worth 185$ instead of 600k. He could get heart attack!

Warren's heart is better than ours! Besides, he barely uses the money. He doesn't care! He'd give up all that money just to have Charlie back for one day.

I'm DEAD serious! Serious like a heart attack! I keep a large stack of cash for these "FIRE SALES." What else can I do?

PS. I've mastered the art of buying low...what I have NOT mastered is...when to sell
I have NOT sold a single share of any shares since the 80s. Not one single share!

PSS. I have "died" with all the DigiCash, e-Gold, Liberty Reserve, and other "currencies" I had cumulated/acquired.

PSSS. I'm getting better at NOT buying stupid sh1t, though! Thanks to OCT!

Agree 100%
Buy and hold is best strategy
No need to sell high and buy low
Long term vision.

I want to take credit for this, but frankly, I am too obtuse to have known when to sell. If I had known when to sell at the top, I would have done it in a second! By the time I realized what was happening, the "drop" was more than half of my gains, so I froze and hoped for it to climb back...then got busy with life & work!
Rinse & repeat!

Yeah...I'm NO Warren or Charlie by ANY stretch of anyone's imagination!
I laugh at myself and my stupidity daily!
