Liberalgeek’s Revenge
I was listening to some news this morning and someone commented that the banking stocks are back up to almost pre-crash prices. I immediately remembered that I had been lambasted by Jason330 about my investment advice to him to buy Bank of America stock. that was on February 20th when BofA was trading at $3.79.
If Jason had followed my advice (which even I did not follow) and he had invested $10,000 in the stock, today he would have almost $47,000. Just sayin…

That’d be a dirty 370% return!!! BofA is the biggest m-effer of the big heads.
Did you take that advice as well?
Actually, Smitty, it is 700% on an annualized basis… 🙂
I never said that it wasn’t dirty money, I just said that it was a money-maker.
Hey, LG. Considering a relative of yours just got hired there. I’d say it’s time to sell sell sell.
Munson: wisest advice I heard yet. 😉
Ford did pretty well, too..from $1 to $7 in 8 months. Of course, when a market loses roughly 50% of its value, there will be money to be made in the subsequent rebound.

Yeah. It’s kind of funny how the Dow stopped being The Ticking Heartbeat of Our Economy as soon as the news stopped being bad.
Sorry–I still can’t get over it’s cyber/paper money. Not one more dime…besides what my employer wants to do for me.

I don’t get your point. If you bought 50,000 shares of Ford at $1.00 per share (it hit .96 last Dec.), and sold that 50,000 shares at $7.00 a share (it’s around $7.50 today), you could request that your broker send you a check for $350,000, less commissions.
That money is real.
