just slightly off topic for a minute, in the time i've been a member of the forum i've seen alot of names moving in and out of the spoltlight, getting lucky on a penny stock here or there, living the dream, but then getting carried away with similar speculative punts and eventually going back to the bottom of the food chain.

i can only actually remember one poster, typically one who most wouldn't even know, who successfully went from a penny trader to a genuine bona fide millionaire, and their strategy left an indelible impression on me.

i'm not recommending other people do what i do, because most people would consider it too risky. but i think that at the same time, alot of the people who think that a heavy strategic investment is fraught with danger are also the ones who throw away most of their profits recklessly by overtrading and chasing too many pipe dreams, or getting carried away with believing in their own publicity.

i just want to go on the record as saying that i don't take myself (and especially my heart) seriously, and i certainly don't consider myself a serious trader or investor, so i would highly recommend that people keep this in mind when reading any of my posts.
