I own some RIOT that I bought at $5.63 a share not long ago. It closed at $9.93 today. Not too shabby for about a month. But RIOT can break your heart. Most of 2020 it was in the $2 to $3 range and then shot up to over $70 in February of 2021. I had bought several hundred shares at below $3 but didn't get out until they were back down in the $40 and $30s. A heck of a nice gain but about half of what it could have been. Some poor souls bought in at $70 and bless their hearts saw it go to a little over $4.

With the central banks looking at crypto as enemy #1 I wouldn't go whole hog on it.

To the original inquiry, I would sure want to only take advice from someone with a long track record of success. That wouldn't be me. I've lucked into some really good stocks and done the best with rural land increasing in value. But I've sure picked some dogs too. My trouble is reluctance to sell when things get overvalued (such as RIOT).


Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.
