also along the lines of facebook, I did something really stupid. I got shares at the IPO, and as it fell, bought more 3X to get my cost even lower. Well you all know how it went, it bottomed at around $19, and is over $120 today. I sold at $41, and was so happy I made almost around a 25% gain. hmmmmmm.......no pain no gain, this is probably the worst case of missed money ever
The above is not atypical, however. I suppose one has to make a decision and stick with it....
I did go back in at $100 and sold at $105...big whoop lol but I like to "pay" for small luxury things with these plays...(talking $1k or less)
