I bought a lot when it was about $90 per share. Mid five figures worth.

I tried to convince my brother to do the same. I said (at the time), Apple has $233 billion in cash. It could buy: Uber, Tesla, Twitter, Airbnb, Netflix, Yahoo ...and still have $18 billion left. It is massively undervalued.

He said he didn't like apple products, android is better.

Years later, he now has an IPhone.
