The advice he's referring to was to sell, stay with me here. He sold at .045 Lets play some more ok? If Earl had 10000 shares he sold at .045 thats ? Yes class $450 Take out say $16 commissions in and out leaves him $434, good Stocky $434 / .0037 = 117,297 Thats an 11.7 X multiple ( I wouldn't buy though ) If it does go back to your magic number of .02 (Won't be tomorrow IMHO) Thats $2345.94 - $450 = $1895.94 (I'll accept a certified check or money order)
