Very good phrase. I agree with that philosophy wholeheartedly. Like I said, we will all see how this plays out, only time will tell. Just because you are successful at one thing does not mean that will carry over to penny stock speculation. Anybody who thought they understood the value of Amarantus two years ago was off by a factor of 150 right now, and would love to have that money back, if only to be able to invest it now. The heavier investors here I'm sure did not accumulate their level of wealth from being stupid, but I also don't think that most of them accumulated it by investing in penny stocks. It is always good advice to invest in yourself whenever possible, and the amount of knowledge I have personally gained and continue to gain from this experience has become the only thing I am counting on taking away from this.

And at the end of the day anybody who has the money to invest in any stock is probably easily within the top 5% globally of financial wealth. Nobody here is worried about where their next meal will come from, or fearing for their life and the lives of their children in the midst of a civil war. It's easy to get wrapped up in how much we're making or losing, but I hope everybody here is able to look around sometimes and be appreciative for what they have.
