I am just trying to prove that investing is like a 2nd part time job. We are small spuds. But we can grow big. I have52 of 10 shares of rock solid companies and I hope one will hit it big like co-cola. All you need is one like that. I really never buy but more that 10 shares of anything. If a company goes broke, ok I meet you good by. little loss. I can't play black jack,it really breaks my heart to see $300 thrown across the table.That could buy 10 shares of some company. I buy in a bank. Two years ago that gang of stock doubled in price. The defined benifet pension is my ace in the hole. I told the nurses about that, but I don;t think they paid any attion to me. For a nurse, It would be like marrying a doctor. I get more now than when I was working,and the fellows after me will get double what I Get. culater
