The Day I Bought 100 Shares of Facebook

[JTH]

Well here it is, getting up there in price....

$57+ a share as I post.

Wow!

Should have DCA'd this puppy all the way up...........

What an awesome trade, very few people can make 185% on a single trade!

Buy more of FB while you still have an opportunity - DCAing is easy when you have a good gain as a wind at your back.

Sorry to change the subject, but along the same investment lines, I'm digging the action in Twitter (TWTR).

And here we are at $67......

[Frixxxx]

Wow, $80 a share.....Wish all my investments had this performance rate.

Homerun! Do you have an exit plan?

Homerun! Do you have an exit plan?

I actually got these in the hopes of leaving them in a trust to my kids. I might exit though as I am not ready to form the trust and may switch to gold for a spell.

I thought it would be fun to see that I invested in their future with something they know and used. Funny, my daughter rarely used her account (deleted for three years until she came back.)

But we'll see....maybe I'll wait for a split or two.....:cheesy:

Homerun! Do you have an exit plan?

I'd call this one a grand slam. Congrats Frixxx!

Catching up on e-mails and notifications, I got my Ameritrade account password reset..... Wish I would have bought this all the way up today!

So here I am reviewing my portfolio for the first time in a couple of years.

Need to structure my investments to a more friendly tax footprint.

Nice to see my Facebook shares are at $120.

Kind of weird buying these and them doing so well, so fast.....

Anyway....I didn't hit the Powerball for $400M this weekend, but one Tennessean did!

I'll take this!

Happy investing all!

Well, Had to happen.

I sold @ $169.50.

Why?

Snapchat’s youth appeal puts pressure on Facebook

Guess what I bought? SNAP @14.50

But missed all 7% growth today....DAMMIT!

Great job on Facebook!

Looks like SNAP has a lot of upside room with some open gaps to fill.

But wow... that bull flag on FB looks very appealing too.

As for the fundies... :dunno:
