This week is the 4th of August and I have to spend money the rent tomorrow. I am just sliding by each month because all of my money is sunk into stocks right now and will have to stay there because it is way way down. I’ve never seen the market tank like this for so long and it has me wondering if it will ever recover. My stock was at $21 when I bought it, which miraculously was the highest it ever was to hit so far, and now I am kneeling on shares worth a mere 24 cents. Fireplace cleaning and repairs is where I made all of my money over the years and on a whim I dumped it all into this Heating and A/C company thinking it was going to make me a millionaire, which wasn’t the case sadly. So now I have 20K shares, which is worth about $5K, a mere shadow of the $400K it was worth when I bought it. My radiant boiler service tech told me not to sell no matter what or I could lose all of my Heating and A/C tech savings and be regretting selling it in a few years. I will heed his advice and not sell and just hope that he is right and the thing recovers one afternoon because losing almost half a million bucks is not kneeling with me certainly well as you could imagine. There are a ton of new Heating and A/C boilers out there now on the market that I would care about to buy, but with all of my cooling tech money wrapped up I will just have to wait a bit.
