I lost that opportunity too (to buy Amazon stock early on). At the time, I thought it was a foolish investment as Amazon was losing money for years and years. Many thought they would never turn a profit and eventually go the way of CMGI or Pets.com.

Oh well.

Yes, and I was telling everyone to buy Apple at $12 a share in the weeks leading up to their jump to $72 in three days. There was a years long 'tradition' of the San Jose Mercury News talking down Apple, just before the stock jumped. In mid 1996 (?) they were at it again.

I didn't have the guts to follow my own advice.
