I agree in part with you Suby. I do a lot of bragging about the winners I have picked over the years too but if you go back over my history on the RB site you will find several posts I have made about investments I have lost on also. Two examples of the worst mistakes I have made are New Visual and Engage (NVEI & ENGA if they are still trading).I really got taken for a ride on the NVEI because they had what I thought and still do think is a billion $$$$$ idea, a way of transmitting up 54 megs/sec of data up to 5 miles over copper telephone wire.After investing a couple thousand in NVEI and watching broken promises one after another I gave up on it. I still have the 47 shares I paid over $2,000 for though. Mainly because to sell them I would have to pay money from my pocket for the commission. It will make a great tax write off someday though. ENGA is a great example of a stock tip I got from an old High School buddy. I shoulda known better. This was the same guy I bought a motorcycle from that had a broken frame. So much for High School friendships! Five years from now I hope I am bragging about my investment in CPTC that turned thousand$$ into Million$$$. Whichever way it shakes out I will keep CPTC in my folder.
