I work in Tech. Many years in Advertising. Lots of Apple computers. When Apple was dying in the 90s due to John Sculley, I was waiting for them to go out of business. I purchased some shares on a whim and figured it was not that much too lose but I could always say that "I owned Apple". Should have bought more shares because I would be retired now.
No point in looking back. Continue to look forward as you are. Learn more about personal investing. And get a great accountant; worth every penny you pay them.

Back when I got my first real job, I blew $12k on two bikes. Just to think how much that'd have become now had I invested in some BRKB shares... |
