I need to trust my long term investment instincts.
Stocks I wanted to purchase between 2000-2002 but did not for one reason or another:
Sears
Amazon.com
Stocks I wanted to buy in 1991 but was talked out out of doing by a so-called "professional" who wanted to sell her company's loser of a mutual fund instead:
Apple (bought later at $20/share)
Alcoa
