Good day dash!
Well, I can understand this view about the old bones and the newbies with such an investment.
I am now in for about 12 month, still a newbie. But I can see a good tendency:

1. The longer you are in with this rollercoster, the more "robust" your stomache became, so now noone can shake you out of this investment. With newbies, this can limit the result of their investment.

2. The long time investors - like you, and even more our old friends here - had plenty of opportunities to collect further shares at low price. I will make some difference if you could build your portfolo since years - lowering your average price step by step. Well, I did...

But finally, yes, I feel that we are one family and will soon be bloody rich old fellas meeting in Vegas for a drink and a ride... for me a MK of 5B would be fine, as the tickets for all the family - from Europe - plus some weeks in the south west have to be funded...

Cheers TF
