Why do people play slot machines or do any other kind of gambling? We have delusions of huge returns.

RSHN was a gamble for me - all or nothing. Unfortunately I got nothing.

Hi Ninja

Good thread on this subject so far, Id like to add another 2 cents (as thats all I have left here anyways:)! I went into RSHN as a lottery ticket and am certainly not complaining about my loss. Another interesting scenario is, even at this point where the company is worth all but nothing I find myself wondering what to do with my holdings. I could try to cash out and go somewhere else with the proceeds I would have left, or, do I just sit tight and wait for a resurgence to come, in whatever form - another run by the company; or maybe new management buys the shell in the future? In the last year Ive had 4 'dead' companies come back to life, one of which has ended up making me a small fortune. So as you see, even at these dim times for RSHN there are always decisions to be make. I think the most appropriate comment made through this whole discussion was - Its just human nature.
