Nice returns. My worst returns have come from trading illiquid stocks. My worst loss was pretty close to 100%, but I was young and stupid.

That's awesome. I don't know if I have the gut to invest like that. My way is slow and steady using low expense ETFs & Mutual Funds, Asset Allocation, and yearly reallocation. A bit boring, but it allowed me to beat the S&P500 for the past 6, almost 7 years.

Yeah it took me some time to finally get up the courage to just put my money out there, but just starting was probably the hardest part.
6/7 is pretty good, I can only hope I will have run like that.

Congrats! I bought AAPL last August at 68. Sold it this September when it dropped down to 113 early in the day while the Dow was down 300 (wound up closing just slightly down on the day). This was my best and worst investment, because if I would have held on, I would have tripled my initial investment in just a few more weeks.

Congratulations. I'm up around 18% for the year, unfortunately took a hit last Friday of about 4%. I hope you sold all those stocks before the recent sell off because it seems like you were really heavy in the Tech sector.
