So by my calculations, umaineball's portfolio is worth... well, you can do the math yourself. But if I were you, umaineball, I wouldn't advertise that number on the Internet!

Did very well.
I sold 100 shares of Microsoft at a gain of about $400.00, used the proceeds to buy 1300 chares of Gateway Computer.
My other holdings didn't move much at all.
My main funds probably gained $500.00.
That's more than I earn working in one full week.
The new concept is to have investments working so you don't need to rely totaly on the job for your livelihood.
I've had better days, and I've had losing days, but the long term is all what matters.
Should Microsoft go back to around $24.00, I will buy back.

Don't get too excited.
Its the last week of the quarter.
Funds are usually up on the last week of the quarter. Its called window dressing.
Personally, some of my stuff was up, some went down.
