Also, as I just got home and see we had good news and yet went down. (like that has never happened before!!) After some exercising, I will read all your messages and try to figure out the story. Some of you would make good detectives.

Then my advice, be all that you can be!! ( took this from the Army commercial ) to your students. No doubt you can still remember a Teacher, hopefully it is Good Memories, remember that...

I have taught many, not as a teacher, but computer concepts and they all remember me, I made it REAL for them.

Also, teens and ignoring you, hello, what do teens want from Daddio, but cha ching... that is typical, the wife, yelling at you?, sorry cannot give advice, I am divorced :-)

Lloyd I have enjoyed many of your posts and have been through quite a learning curve myself. I have 5 accounts that I invest with. One is down 50% (mostly from MDFY and CESV...a very stupid China move) I would like to recommend a Book on investing to you....I have the version on tape...burned to 3 CD's. I have a local library account and can download up to 10 books and than either burn them to CD or my Creative Ipod device. Please take a minute and look into this book...I think it will take you to a new level. Also do you have any stock analysis software loaded on your PC that will help you read a data sheet and compare the company you are researching to the market?
Here are my two suggestions:
1. Trading for a Living... by Professional trader & practicing psychiatrist Dr. Alexander Elder
2. Look into http://www.investools.com/
I can tell you when I first got into investools...I was making money really easy. I bought some great stocks like STKL, GROW, AVII, and NVDA(also if I would have done what DOC suggested today and NOT sold all of the stocks at once that I just mentioned..I would have made a fortune (I bought GROW at around $9.00(30k worth) and sold at $14-15(it has gone has high as $33) ...I made real decent money on stocks that I ran through Investools software and researched. Than I thought I was smart and started to gamble with OTC crap. That is when I cut my retirement account in half. Now I am playing with the penny stuff to try and make a quick buck...I have mostly solid stuff in the other 4 accounts. I think you will really learn from the first 60 minutes of the Trading for a Living book...I hope you get a few minutes to look into the material. I am strictly a retail investor and am just a subscriber to Investools....it used to be NBCI investments...They get a real big buck for joining but I went to a local seminar and got in very reasonable. If you cannot find the "Trading for a Living" at a local library you can buy the CD Audio version for $12 from Amazon.
