Yep, profit is profit. And I remember when the PPS was $0.01 and I had no money to buy it because I bought it at $0.06 and my money was sitting in it.
I've learned many valuable lessons holding this and watching the markets in the years between now and then and would never let that happen again. The people who incessantly cheerlead for this do young investors a severe disservice by persuading them to hold their baby bux in something that is not going to move for years.
Things could have turned out a lot worse, I'm not complaining per se. But the way some people act like every single person is in their twilight years with fat stacks of cash sitting in this is silly. If people were more realistic the world would be a better place.
