[quote=Anonymous]Everyone has made mistakes and that includes Templeton, Graham, and Buffett. I'm sorry you lost money in the tech bubble; so did I. It was supposed to be a whole new paradigm :-) Thankfully, I had a diversified portfolio. The 5% that was highly speculative was lost completely. Another 10% that were inflated to high risk levels like Microsoft and Cisco were crushed and have never returned to their peak bubble levels. Nevertheless, my remaining 80% which suffered did not collapse and eventually recovered doubling and tripling their peak bubble levels. Actually, my portfolio value increased as a result of the past two bubbles because while share prices decreased my dividends remained constant or increased allowing me to purchase even more shares of stock. Stop telling people what they can't do and start telling people what they can do. It's not rocket science!!![/quote]
