shut the hell up. :-P I took the plunge and bought some Apple stock today. I heard about the split that's set to happen this month and I thought, "gee... I've wanted to buy this stock for some time now. Maybe I should get off my ass and buy it."
When I first started looking at buying Apple stock, it was because of Adam's stock simulator on the ancient DingoStick site. It was about 23$/share back then. I bought at 83.31$/share today.
So now I'm feeling quite a bit more poor, but hopefully it pays off in the end.
Whoa, there. Let me point out that DingoStick, while a fairly old site with a newer design, isn't quite ancient. I also still have my stock simulator online and it's functional -- it just may not be kept up like some of my other software. (</shamelessplug>)
Well slow down there cowpoke! I was speaking of the ancient DingoStick, not this new fangled doohicky site! ;-)
But that was a good shameless plug nonetheless. :-)
Wahoo, I made 46.20$ today.
