Re: Your Best Investment Ever
Best investment ever - Panera Bread at $7. Sold out at $50. Regretted it ever since.
Worst investment never made - Had $1000 in 1980 and wanted to buy something. Since I wasn't 18 yet, told my dad to ask his broker about it. Said it was too risky, I should invest in this Canadian gold mining stock, which today is worth all of $4. The "too risky" stock - Genentech. That's when I learned that brokers know crap.
Worst sell - 1992, bought a quality high tech stock at 13 5/8. Come 1995 and I want to buy a new Celica, so I can sell one of two stocks. I pick this one, which is at 32. Unfortunately its name was Sun Microsystems and I wound up driving the world's only $500,000 Celica.
