<<<<<<<<<<<<That investor profile is very interesting Gerry. I wonder if you would mind answering a question for me. I don't know how to classify myself but I know I am not following conventional guidelines. I have a limited potfolio (accident damages settlement) and not a lot of experience. I have tended to go heavily into one stock as part of a broader portfolio. I was hurt by HIH and didn't read the signs with TLS and ERG though I made some money. Now I am almost wholly in biomed because I think professional integrity adds a little more to the reliability of conjecture. I am heavily into a few favourites though spread accross 15 bio stocks.I have a healthy distrust of brokers and have nothing to do with them these days.Where do I fit on the profile>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

 

My honest opinion, depending on your age you should invest the money in your own  higher education so that with a higher income potential your return on investment of this unfortunate windfall grubstake (accident damages settlement)  will far outweigh over the coming years, the  gambling  method you appear to be using.
