Hey there Mel, 26k shares is a good amount of shares; however a million would make you a millionaire with HISC shares. The chances of this stock reaching a buck or two is pretty decent. Then you can enjoy the money and hopefully invest it in a fixed income mutual fund or even a CD for that matter.
If you take 1 million dollars and if your earning lets say 6% APY of the principal, then you are earning $60,000.00 a year for doing nothing really. Not a bad plan. Just a hint of advice.
I own several millions of shares. But, if you want to invest in to 26k shares that is fine too:)
