    It was a Lost Decade of investing, only if you bought at the beginning - did nothing else - and then sold at the end. Of course, that is really not how people should be investing their money.

    It is such a simple thing that people seem to always mess it up by complicating it. Buy low - sell high! Or …if need be, sell high - buy low. Few things in life are this simple.

    I purchased $10,000 worth of Apple stock for $4.00 a share back in the day and have mostly sat on it since.

    I believe it is around $200.00 a share presently.

    Get out there and buy new ipods and laptops for Xmas. I want to retire soon!
