Back in 2003 when Apple stock was around $10 a share I did look at it but decided that Apple had less then 10% of the computer market so I bought Gateway computer stock instead and after several years lost about $30,000....

If I had bought Apple stock (5,000 shares) with the money I had at that time I would have made at it’s peak about $3.5 million!

I now own Ford stock and tripled my money but passed up TRW when it was at the same price. I could have made 5 times more..... they make car parts among other things.

So if you guys want to know what stock to buy I suggest picking my rejects. You will become rich!

LOL.

I thought about buying Microsoft when Windows was introduced, running more than one DOS program was the future baby! Never got around to it.

I thought about picking up Apple shares when Microsoft bailed them out just because it was obvious that Microsoft had an interest in keeping them afloat, never got around to it.

When Bitcoin came out I thought about buying a couple hundred because is was the going to be the way you paid for small stuff on the internet. Never got around to it.

We ought to form a joint venture.
