The Viacom thing is interesting, but it sounds like it\'s purely rumors based on Howard saying he\'ll work for them again one day.  We\'ll see.  I wish I had more money.

I\'d rather just stick my cash in a mutual fund and be done with it.  I have poor spidey sense when it comes to money.

I do too, but if you deversify well and/or only play with spending cash you really can\'t get hurt in the long run.

Woohoo!!!

Man, I like good days.  Problem is this isn\'t a stock that I will be selling any time soon so it\'s really no big deal when you have nice two day swings.

BTW, someone mentioned a couple months ago on what do do with 1,000 bucks.  If they had bought sirius, they would now have about 1700 bucks.

This stock should be over 8 bucks easy by the time next year comes around.

Also there are rumours that Sirius may buy out Stern\'s contract.  That would be interesting.

I have a successful stock story, I suppose. At least in the context I intended for it.

Bought 80 shares of nVidia at $12.10, now $18.40. Plan to sell sometime after it hits $20.

That\'s great. Nice job.  How long have you had it?

It\'s always good to buy stocks you take part in.  That\'s why I have sirius now.  Plus the fact that it freaking rocks.

Stern is going to be on Letterman Thursday.  Lots of rumours running around that he may announce something on Thursday that may be as big as a buyout.  Although I doubt it, it\'s still great for Sirius.  Friday will hopefully be an interesting day.

I wish I didn\'t quit my job.  I\'d like to throw some more money at it.  I have 5 grand in the bank doing nothing for me right now.

Fizuck diversification.  Siri is blowing freaking up!!!

3 days straight.  I\'ll be sad if it drops like a rock Friday.

I tried stock for a while. My portfolio never moved. I tried with Nintendo before Gamecube came out and it went down.

I suppose I was about even when I pulled my money out and put it in the bank.

This talk on Sirius makes me wish I was still in it. That\'s a hell of a success story nearly doubling your money twice.  Too bad it wasn\'t a large sum. :-/

I say that all the time, but I don\'t see Sirius fallin gany time soon.  They are going to hit their goal by the first of the year with a million subscribers and that will cause another spike.  Then when Stern comes on the air it will cause another spike.  There is no reason why this stock shouldn\'t be at 10 bucks in another year holding steady.  That would be a healthy profit considering all I am doing is sitting on my ass and watching it grow.

I\'m too much of a puss to throw big money on the market.
