im kinda of the same way, except recent i havent had enough money to spare to really play the market with. Couple of years ago when i use to be in school for networking and building computers i was at the top of my knowledge on new computer products. I remember a big new video game was coming out and AMD was also making a new dual core chip that was suppose to be the cat's meow of processors. I was watching the annual high's and lows of the stock for the past year and looked for the seaonsally lowest average time to buy the stock. Long story short i bought it month before christmas at like 12 dollars a share and sold it just after january at about 19 a share, same thing too if i woulda waited it coulda sold it at a ripe 22-24ish. Reguardless i made a little bit of cash and that was coupla years ago when i was only like 18 so it was really cool then. And congradulations on your gain steve
