Awesome

Yesterday was a good day.

TEXG made a 825+% increase in the past few days. I bought a few thousand shares months ago at $0.30. Sold yesterday.

Now I'm dreading the taxes I have to pay next year.

CMGI, AMHD, BZTG, NWACQ as far as penny stocks go

SIRI, AIRN, ALVR, TRBM for others

I also have a few more.

I have most of my money spread between several mutual funds and IRAs. I use my tax-free money I get over here for stocks b/c it's basically free, I probably won't do it once I get back home.

Things to do in Iraq: burn money on the stock market and enjoy the sandstorms.

This damn stock is skyrocketing. Bought in on it again yesterday and sold within the hour for a few hundred bucks. Insane. I don't think this rally will last long though.

If i'm not mistaken since he only bought the stock a few months ago and sold it he will be paying short term capitol gains, once it is sold after a year of ownership then it is long term taxed at 15% and that is only the feds cut.

There's some awesome books out there to read. I read a few and managed to find a few more reads online. I learned at a young age to invest early, too many friends of mine barely have savings accounts.
