RE: Remembering the DotCom Boom : Part 2 – Here Come The Wolves
Cheaper than a degree, and you probably learn't more.
I remember at that time a kid at school bought a Lambourghini. He invested in some computer graphics companies. I was jealous.
This specific investment instance, yes. Not sure about the whole 6 years of my life though....maybe :)
I guess that Lambos have stood the test of time. I don't remember people talking about Lambo Stocks back in the DotCom Boom, but as I was on the coalface I just may not have seen it.
Maybe you should have bought Lambo stocks back then. You might be mega rich now! Although there was 2008.
Yes, I think that is my point about being on the coalface for the DotCom Boom. I understood how the sharemarket worked, but I didn't understand finance, how the business cycle worked, nor the psychology behind it so I was unable to really capitalise on the vision. I was too focused on the Labor and not Capital side of the revolution.
Lesson learnt ;)
Same. I like to think I'm better prepared for the next one.
