    Default Re: Stocks/Mutal Funds

    Well hello Mr. New Assistant Moderator.

    I own several thousand shares of a (now defunct) mining company that my father bought for me when I was about seven. I'm holding on to them just in case time flows backwards and I can make a buck. Or maybe one day they'll kick back in a strike gold. Who knows?

    Other than that, I buy lottery tickets like all the other shmoos.

    *Oh yeah, about ten (fifteen?) years ago I got ripped off for $5K US buying some Ben & Jerry's stocks. I threw in my cash with two other guys to buy a block of 1500 shares and one of the guys and my 5k went "Poof!"
