Having invested in a number of speculative shares (aka penny dreadfuls) over the last 30 years, and never once hitting a winner (although I didn't always lose money, or much, I didn't make any either), plus losing a heap on other less risky investments (or they should have been, but this is Australia and it's full of shonky operators, and don't rely on ASIC/ACCC for help), plus throw in the GFC 1 & 2, this result is particularly gratifying for me. If things go really well, I could just about get it all back in one hit.
