68, BS is Soc. Sci. from Porltand State in 72. 4 kids, 2 grandkids. 1st NOK phone in 1997 and bought a 710 last spring after a few blackberries motorolla's, etc. Had forgotten the quality of a Nokia phone and began watching the stock price and reading of their fall and recovery. Very lucky - bought 1600 shares @ 1.83 and bought another 4000 @ 3.50 and expect these 5600 shares to pay a dividend and appreciate 4 - 600% in the next 2-4 yrs.
I'm self employed owner/mgr of real estate, sail, ski, tinker with old English cars, and raising a 4 yr. old son. I bought JWN @ 13.50 and sold @ 54. Have bought PGN since 1975 and lost it all in ENRON and still curious at the controlled destruction of WTC7 and the end of the ...More ENRON prosecutions.
