What's this?

Had a uncle (VT trained engineer) that loved Apple, so he...


...bought a lot of Apple stock during their "tough" times. That was a very good investment.

I lived in San Diego during the mid-90s, and remember seeing Qualcom stadium. Didn't give it a second thought at the time. Years later I realized that if I had taken every dollar I had invested and bought Qualcom stock back then, I would have been a millionaire many times over. I forgot how many times that stock doubled in value, but it was in the double digits.
