I made money on Bear Stearns, but lost $300,000 in 2008. Like you say jag-eun agma
you just have to move on!

Thanks for your kind words.


The big difference between your story and mine is that the $ 70, 000 inheritance was the most money I have ever owned. I am now back to saving about $ 3, 500 a year - if I am lucky with no unexpected expenses.

It actually took me about a year to accumulate 53, 000 shares of CTS at a market price of approx .07.
The woes of being a long - term holder type of investor include having 7 consecutive years of Capital Loses. I am still awaiting my lucky 1 year of a Capital Gain - LOL.


The conversations and fun in reading and researching Dockets have made it all worthwhile.
