Hansix, you misinterpreted my post as negative when in reality I was being realistic. TDC is a speculative play at this time. I believe that at some point it will flip over to being an investment for "someone". Yes someone. We have time and a few other hurdles in between. Unbridled optimism is okay but the wealth pyramid needs a solid foundation first. Obviously you are at that point in your financial life that you can have hopes and dreams about TDC that others can or should not. Maybe your scenario will play out and you will be handsomely rewarded. I wish you and others only the best. It is all about risk management.........The next shoe is about to drop in the debt crisis. Kicking the can down the road only works so long. When confidence is lost we encounter the musical chair scenario except there may be only one chair for many persons............One scenario that should be considered is that we, the present TDC shareholders, may not be in the driver's seat when this all plays out. I have thought through the many possibilities. I have looked at the positive and the negative. I do not have a crystal ball, only common sense and a grasp of history. I do have skin in the game as my fun money is likely greater than most players total capital. In other words, if TDC plays out as well as portrayed by the overly optimistic......I can only dream about what I would do with the windfall. On the other hand, my lifestyle would not change with the other possibility.
