nesnman, you asked us if we wanted to know what its worth now and then you told us..... what it was worth in 1999...... when tech stocks were at their peak. As for blaming Obama, Videotime, if you know anyone on wall street who is taking massive losses selling at a time when prices are falling through the floor because there are no buyers just to avoid paying an additional 3% of taxes...... they probably need to find a new line of work.

Well that person is an idiot, you can't place sole blame for economic crisis on one person. It started long before Obama.

Do you know anyone that work on Wall St? I do. They do blame Obama for the market downfall. Many investors are selling off before the tax increases.

I do understand that the Market is long term. I just don't see myself investing at this time, considering the uncertainty of which businesses may or may not exist at the end of this economic crisis. How in the name of all that is holy or unholy can one man be the entire reason that the market has tanked. Your statement that Obama is the reason the market has tanked, is unwarranted and without proof and dare I say Retarded. So please fornicate yourself with a rusty pipe

The stock market works for everyone. It's long term. If you don't understand that then you shouldn't be invested. I am and I have also done very well. Obama is the reason the market has tanked.

That is great that your investments have worked out for you, but like you state in another post in 1999 when the Technology Stocks were at their highest was 2.7 million. But what about now after the 9/11 stock crash and the current economic crisis. If you were take out your money (which i don't think you want to at this point) how much taxes would you have to pay on it.

Well, Good luck with Social Security. My Broker purchased Microsoft Stock for me in 1986. . He invested $10,000 in Microsoft stock in 1986 and in 1999 it was worth around 2.7 million.

I am talking about the lamest and the market, for the average person the market just looks bad, for people that knows how deal with it and come up on top then it is their perogative to take care of their future that way, but for JOE SIXPACK that only cares about something when their time comes then a simple savings account does just fine.
nesnman (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
You look at the market short term. Don't invest in it then. By the way . I purchased stock starting in 1986 including shares of Microsoft. Would you like to know what it's up to now? |
