My wife doesn't give a hoot about the stock market. She doesn't even want to know what I'm doing every day. Basically, I never tell her anything.
Her dad was a stock broker. She's probably learned more than any of us just by sitting around the dinner table growing up. I took about 10 minutes the other day to explain our situation. She listened very patiently, not saying a word until I was finished. By the way, I was very proud of myself enlightening her on the current day market affairs in 15 minutes or less. I thought I was telling her something she didn't know.
Her reply was startling to me. It put me into silence. Her response was:
SO WHAT, THAT'S THE SHORTS BUSINESS, THAT'S WHAT THEY DO
THE MARKET GOES UP AND THE MARKET GOES DOWN
SO........................................, JUST WAIT
I was incensed. She showed no emotion at all. It was too abrupt, too a matter of fact.
I've had plenty of time to think about what's happened. Lets take a bird's eye view of our situation.
Facts:
1. I did the proper DD to know I made a wise investment. Did I buy too soon? No, not at all. Unico needed the money for mill renovations and that's why I'm here.
2. I bought long because I believe in Ray Brown and what he has fought for over the last 40 years. Folks, the hard work is done.
3. I believe in the management of Unico. They will succeed.
4. I'm proud of Mark Lopez and his Team for all their hard work and dedication.
5. If it were not for Lopez and Brown this dream would of never come to reality.
6. I'm very happy and thankful, I didn't have to put up with all the headaches, permit issues, politics, etc. and dealing with management decisions on a day to day basis to get the mill up and running.
7. IMO, they have not let me down, and don't believe for a minute they will.
8. These are their dreams, much more than mine.
9. I'm proud and thankful to have been financially able to become an investor, to share in their dreams.
10. I will continue giving my support through these final weeks as they tidy up all the loose ends prior to the mill's opening. I feel like all longs, and the company, are in a very good place considering all the hard work that has been done over the last 3 years to get us to here. The timing is perfect.
I'd like to make a toast to Unico. Out with 2006 and in with 2007!
If I'm lucky enough to go the the next shareholders meeting, I'd like to shake your hand Mr. Brown and Mr. Lopez for a job well done. Congratulations.
My wife's advise and her last comment sums it all up:
JUST LET ME KNOW WHEN I CAN GO SHOPPING!!!
