What are We Missing?

[Palm]

We all make our own decisions Puts. I could have quintupled it on TSLR, or when I bought APPL at $20 years ago and sold it at $80 I could have held it until $480 and multiplied it 24 times. But I didn't. And I didn't blame Steve Jobs for that or threaten to sue him because of my decisions. But instead I was happy I did well with APPL and now have a diversified portfolio which includes IOC that I've done well on without using options or margins; ever. I maybe could have done better if I did, but I've chosen not to. And if IOC tanks from here, I'll be pissed at myself for not selling at 90, 95, 100 or 106. But I had the chance to pull the trigger then and didn't. I can pull the trigger here if I think I should, but I haven't done it so far. Plenty of chances to make and lose lots on IOC. I have targets both high and low where i have and will pull the trigger; and live with what I do. That's what investing is all about; living with the choices you make and not following the herd mentality; in fact doing the opposite many times. But maybe that's just me.
