Heck, you could even pledge your shares for a loan and buy the house. Then, when IDCC moves up to higher levels, sell the shares and pay off your loan.

Damn Fish, guess I never thought of that. Great idea....now if I can just persuade the little bride. She's tired of hearing me say $100 this....$100 that for the last 10+ years, LOL.

On the other hand, I indirectly know of two people who committed
suicide due to their "strong feelings" about their great stock
investment. Unfortunately, those "strong feelings" ruined them
financially and they took their own lives.

I think they should never have done that (take their lives), but
I'm just saying what happened.

P.S.

It's not that their investment thesis was wrong - it was the timing
that was way off and one had too many LEAP calls - they thought a couple
of years was a long time, but it turned out that it wasn't nearly
long enough.
