We invested in MSFT when it went public in 1987 and I caught hell for investing $4600. One of the best buys I made at the time. 200 shares and I let it sit there. It helped us with improving the home we had and made some decent $$$'s in the process. I still have some shares of MSFT but not what I could have had if I didn't touch it.
If I left it alone, it would have been worth $250 million as of Fridays price.
It's in the mid $500 dollar range now. I could have had 250k shares instead of 500 but I'm not bitching either. We did savings bonds as well. Broad spectrum of investments over the last 40 years. I just wish she was here to enjoy the fruits of out labor.
