What? We haven’t tacked on another Dell yet?
Give ’em a few hours…
WooHoo just hit $500,000 worth….
“Only” about $225,000 here. Getting on par with the equity in my home. Boy wish I had invested a bit more and retired today.
Nice work, guys. I think we all feel the same way about investing a bit more a few years back!
Nice thing was I bought some of it when it was $22 before the split..
Same Here! 500 Shares at $22 pre split!
Cool Beans ….. I wasn’t as smart as you guys early on ……
but I did take out a mortgage on my paid for house and I now own outright 1,000 shares …. And I have paid off $100k of the mortgage so I now owe under $200K for a net gain of over $400K, loving it baby, lovin it ….
Thank you Steve …. RIP my brother, RIP ……
Awesome! I just hit $270,000. For some people that is chump change, but for me and my family that is pretty huge.
Looking forward to when I hit 1/2 MIL like @whatever. 😀
Doing just as good with Google! This said this is a big nothing unless you crystallize the gains. 🙂
I hung on to Nortel too long hence keeping an eye on both my Apple and Google stocks for sure and I own a lot of Silver Wheaton as well.
Some good friends of ours in tech had their sons follow them whom we’ve known since they were kids. One of them went to work for Google BEFORE their stock offerings and in his twenties became a milliionaire overnight. Life just isn’t fair is it? 🙂
Regardless of relative worth, you and the others here are to be congratulated. Few on the planet have grown their investment in the manner that you have.
Congrats, I’m $6 short of $2M. I mean, I’m waiting for Apple to hit $686 for my 2915 shares to be worth $2M.
Good God Almighty Ken, smart man! We could have easily done the same but… didn’t.
Nice work ……
Where is Samsung??
Headline: Correct
Intraday: Correct
Closing: Missed it by a scooch. Should be $680.44 / $4.17 gain
Still: Priceless!
And where on this list is the company we had to save or it would be the end of the world, GM? Anywhere near the top ten?
150k for me. Major part of my 401k now. Wasn’t planned that way but when a stock is up 850% what can you do.
