··Most fun screen name at ΩFYeah, I remember in 2003 it was $17 a share. This was just when the first iPod and iTunes was introduced.
I had a spare $5000 and I thought about it but spent the money on something else instead. I don't remember what. I refuse to do the math on what if.

Actually not even close. As cool as I thought iTunes and the iPods were I thought the iPhone - mainly it being an AT&T exclusive at first - was daft. AT&T's network really SUCKED big ones at the time. If I had bought at $17 I would have sold at $165. Still not a bad 2 year return...

Now it is trading at $100 AND there has been a 3:1 stock split, so effectively at $300 per share I purchased back in 1994..... 🙁

·I did something similar. Bought a company here called CSL at ~$3.24 a share in 1994. Sold it a few years later around $12. Pretty happy!

Yeah, they don't come up often, if at all. Neither does that sweet black dialed pink gold Roger Dubuis that Mel over on TZ owns.

·If I had saved up my money from my part-time job back in the mid 2000s and used it for a house deposit in Sydney - well, guess I'm stuck collecting watches and paying rent.
