    Tyco (TYC) is up 3x over the last 3 years. Enron and WorldCom are still around but their stocks are worthless. People got greedy in the late 90s and bought anything that goes up. The faster the rise, the greater the interest. Course when the party ends, there were many bagholders!!!

    Those who invested in the broad market such as the SP500 or Wilshire 5000 fared much better. Diversification is the key to success in this game. Buy more when the market is down. Reduce your equity exposure when there is excessive interest in the stock market. Pure common sense 101.

    Ask yourself why those unfortunate people put all their savings in Enron? Do they know about the possibility of bankruptcy? Is it because they believed that the stock couldn't go down, and will make them a lot of $ in the near term? Fidelity Investment has an 800 number, and their staffs will be glad to answer all your investment questions for FREE. Knowledge is power. It's your $ to lose.

    We hear these selective sad stories in the evening news because they make interesting headlines.

    Those who don't live below their means will always have financial issues because they don't have the reserve to weather the unexpected.

    Rarely have I said to anyone that I pity them.....however, you are in need of my pity.............consider counseling NOD.....your failure in life is showing.....and your illusions are controling you
    Did you think that wilders members are all losers....there is a good chance many here could buy you like a box of stale popcorn.........look at yourself NOD...you re-act like a puppet to the remarks of some posters.....you are extremely weak....able to be perdicted.....an thus controled.......many of the "drops of wisdom" you posted were made by other individuals.....not your wisdom at all......personally I chose to ignor you because to me you have no value.......I see a person in misery...in need of pity.
    The world and wilders have survived without you a very long time...an will continue to survive.....an although you obviously consider the good people here in desperate need of you......truely thats not the case.
    Nod.....I'll continue to ignor you for the reasons afore stated......be sure to post a flame or two directed at me....thats your perdictable behavior.

    Like I said nod32_9 your attitude is only a characteristic of your youth (it is painfully obvious). Someday, God willing, you will grow out of your "pride" and become willing to be humble and know what it truly is to be man. Only then will you have passed the test of "life 101"

    Underachievers will continue to blame their problems on fate, society, or other people. If you cannot obtain basic food and shelter in the greatest country in the world, then it's time to go on welfare.

    Yet another fine example of youth, surpassed by ignorance. :D yes, I see the redundancy. TheSnowGuy was wise to check out. It's pointless to try to instill value in those who are not yet ready or capable of recognizing.

    OK gents that's about enough. Answering the poll and supplying the reasoning behind your answers is sufficient without the personal conflicts.

    Hey Detox. You know we could make a sub-forum just for arguing and flaming. Then the rest of us, who aren't interested, wouldn't have to find this stuff scattered all over the forum. What do you think? o_O

    How about a smiley with a flamethrower? Or maybe something like this.

    Being a very new member here, and a real newbie, I probably don't have any business commenting on this thread, however....having read all of the posts I would have to say, this quote is the only one that really has any value. Well said, beetlejuice!

    Hi Sweetie,

    It is your business and you have every right to post your views, guest or member. Objective opinions are always welcomed.

    Given the way some of the registered members are acting in this thread, the theory that guests tend to misbehaviour more is in serious trouble I think.

    Kudos from me too, bj. :) I'm active with a number of other groups, and a mod at one of my medical-support ones, and every so often some idiot will raise the "free speech" issue. I have to patiently remind them that just about every one of the millions (billions?) of websites is owned and operated by someone, and that anyone visiting that site is literally visiting, in the same way that you'd visit someone else's home.

    You sure wouldn't claim a right to "free speech" in someone else's house, would you? Terms of Service may or may not be clearly spelled out, but in the majority of cases when you register somewhere you explicitly consent to abide by the "house rules". And such agreement/consent is generally implicit anyway even if you don't have to register -- the site's owner-operator is, after all, the "boss" and has the final word on what's acceptable.

    I agree with Yes. I think anyone who is a member here and thinks they have some kind of special privilege just because you signed up here should get off their high horse. Just because you signed up here doesn't make this your personal territory. I don't understand why people feel just because they signed up here that makes them special.

    It's funny really the way people act who hang out here all day long acting like this site belongs to them just because they answer a few posts and then belittle others because they haven't signed up. This isn't your personal territory any more than it is any other guest who is posting here. Not everyone can spend their whole day just hanging around websites all day long, some folks have to work for a living.

    So my opinion is realize that just because you have 2,456,720 posts here doesn't mean you have more say than anyone else who is just visiting here unless Paul Wilders says so because he runs the site not you.

    As long as anonymous posts are allowed here i will continue to post here because i have the right to do so according to PW and no one can say a thing about it to the contrary. ;)
