2021 BRN Discussion, page-22575

@Zacsydney, @preetmel, I can feel your pain, my average price is a hair's under 0.50 so now I'm also in the red by quite a substantial amount.

But with the benefit of having held stocks for more than 20 years, it doesn't faze me much anymore, especially for BRN. What's for certain is the intrinsic value that the company has (patents, >3 year lead, low power, one-shot learning, etc) which has yet to be unlocked. The moat is so wide that you can practically not look at the share price for a year and not worry too much.

You can think of it as buying a gold coin for your child. You know that gold has intrinsic value, though the gold prices may fluctuate. The reason why people who buy gold (coins, bars, jewellery, etc) don't stress themselves out checking the price of gold daily after their purchase is because they know that although they may be out of the money for 2 weeks, 6 months or a year, eventually, just by leaving it alone, it's price WILL appreciate over the long term. I see BRN the same way in that I see commodities with value like that.
