Buffetguy, Patience, vision and risk taking is the way to ones wildest dreams.


Yes I am a dreamer but I also happen to be a realist and one of the working stiffs in this country who invests 21% of my income into my 401K. Have been doing it for the last 8 years. At almost 46 I started late and my financial planner says I will not get to being a millionaire when I reach 60. My guy is on the consevative side in projecting future earnings on my portfolio. I will come in at 75% which isnt too bad for a regular guy like me.


He does not believe that I should hold on to my shares in Wave. Wave is not even considered in my portfolio. That is where the dream part comes in for me.


You say one needs the 3 attributes in becoming a millionaire; patience, vision and risk taking and Wave Systems is that company. So allow me to ask you (as a millionaire) if holding on to 10K shares of Wave will fulfill any "DREAMS" of becoming financially secure? Or as you so eloquently say "FILTHY RICH"

I will say that ALL THINGS SECURE is the business of today and tomorrow and it will touch all aspects of our daily lives.


Good luck to all us longs. If I never make it to the ranks of Buffettguy and other millionaires on this board, I do possess a spirit and belief that one can not measure by dollars.


Thanks for reading and responding in advance.


Peace,
