Diana, You're one the reason why I became a member of this board. The post are not only about money but also about people... I became an addict about 2 months ago. I was trading on Nasdaq and TSX for about 5 years when I finally looked at penny stock. That was it. I lost about 5 pounds since last week only. Not because of a nervous breakdown but because I forgot to eat :-) And even more since QBID came to my attention. I had breakfast early this evening...that would not be so bad if it would have been Today's breakfast....nop...cause I didn't eat yesterdays....:-)) Anyway, I'm a freelancer in multimedia production and I had enough so, I will be putting all my eggs in the micro pennies stocks and be more and more involved here and there as I finish all my contracts and put my company on the ice for a few months. I feed on stress. I've been having a full 7 course serve meal recently. Glad to meet you and many others here. Salut! Malloy IP: Logged |

Okay, I finally had to register! Diana, you've been cracking me up 4 weeks now! I love this whole damn board. Today, I got home starving, but I had to check the boards BEFORE eating. And you went on and on about this great food you'd been cooking!!! That was torture. No point really, just wanted to join the party. I first tried Raging Bull, but that was mean and ugly! This board feels like home. Thanks for keepin it real...and funny! I bought Ibzt and Qbid with you guys. ------------------ IP: Logged |

Diana, Since you are in a confessing mood, here's the truth aobut me. I am Trini and I am total day trading addict. I was hooked since January due to job loss. Because of Qbid I forgot to wake up my son for school. Because of qbid I did not do his lunch. My son came back crying "mommy don't you care about me anymore?" I wake up at 4:00 a.m. getting all my screens ready to go. I do not eat breakfast and some days I also forget to drink my milk and coffee. I stare at the computer so much I am getting a neck pain and my eyes feel like it is crossed. I wear a pair of bifocal glasses but I think my vision is slowly fading away. Not from age mind you because I am only 52 years young. I am trying to make this my livelihood and so extend my unemployment check. This is better than dealing with a boss that does not know what you are doing and yet is getting paid more than you do and get to tell you what to do. The worst part of this is my son (12 yrs old) is now starting to pay attention to dow jones. Please help me, I do not want him to get this affliction. IP: Logged |

realityinc21 : I took my last drink in 1978 and attended AA meetings for 7 ro 8 years afterwards. I was addicted to chat rooms on this box of wires. I traded options back in 1982, and it was like an all day horse race. I made some, lost it all back + more, but it was fun. I owned thourobreds and lost money on those too, but it was fun. Then I saw Lucent falling to under a $1.00 and wanted to buy all I could, but didn't have a broker, so when it hit $5 I couldn't stand myself anymore, and trotted down to Scottrade. Now, I find myself here, and ya know what? I'm a penny stock crackhead after one hit off the penny pipe. Addictive personalities are always looking for that next big deal that is just around the corner, no matter the addiction. I mostly only know people that are inflicted with addictive personalities, and find them much better company than NORMAL folks. After all they are addicted to something, and still manage a regular life, that takes real talent. Normal people work hard at a regular life, addicted people do regular as a side job. And besides, I just might catch a ride on one of these .0001 rockets! (in a pig's ass) LOL IP: Logged |

I haven't seen anyone confess of being married to an addict; I AM!! Probably started 3 months ago, I think I remember it being a Wednesday. But prior to that night, approximately 1 1/2 years ago, a brother in law came home from work (he's a telephone serviceman), all exited. Now this man is quiet, mild mannered, he monitors everything, you don't even know he is around for that fact. Anyway, when he walks in, it's "Hey all, got something you all might be interested in!" We were racing to the front door rug just to see what his ranting was all about. "Worldcom, we all need to put our monies together and buy Worldcom. It's going to be hot!" Computer was turned on and the search began for the ticker symbol. To make a long story short, we all bought and we all became losers. Not very long later, a close friend stopped by. And that is where it began. He talked, taught, drew, answered questions left and right, asked questions left and right until it was pounded into every inch of my husband's head. Our daily and nightly talks weren't "How was your day" anymore. I was bombarded with, "guess what penny stock I found today?" to "guess what we bought today?" That was 3 months ago. I use to kick him in the night while he slept because of the way he moaned. Now I laugh my butt off when I hear a ticker symbol being mumbled while he is turning from is left side to his back or vice versa. Not knowing if he is awake or asleep, I ask a question. If he answers back with some off the wall response or grits his teeth and starts snoring again, I leave him alone. If I get other words, I get up and write down what the symbol was what I think I heard. I got a notebook started. I have moved the couch closer to the computer desk with blanket and pillow ready, just in case he can't take the 20 steps to the bedroom door, all he has to do is get up off the chair and flop. Tooth paste and tooth brush is within arm's reach. Hell, I have even seen him checking prices on urinals!! Suppertime was all of us sitting at the kitchen table together and eating. Now I fix his plate and bring it to him at the computer desk. I love you's are no longer. It has been replaced with "I love this stock!" But as each day comes to a close, I bend down, kiss his cheek, tossil his hair and if it doesn't fluff like hair should, I do ask him when the last time he took a shower was. I use to hate Sundays because they were a boring days; football games, baseball games, etc. Not only do I hate them, I despise them. They are spent looking at the left side of his face because he's doing DD on the computer. If I am lucky, I will have him for maybe 3 hours on Saturday. I have to go to the gas station for gas by myself, I take the trash out, I change leaky faucets, fix the broken chain on my son's bicycle and even getting good at diagnosing and fixing the vehicles. But you know what. I am really starting to like all this. Because everyday, I see I won't be working much longer. Another couple of moves on certain stocks and it will be "take this job and shove it". I come home from work these last few weeks and tell him "move out of the chair, I gotta read Allstocks." Ut oh!! I think I see another addict starting. GLTA...I love all you guys!!! I said in the beginning and even posted it, that one of these days it would be sooo awesome if we could all meet in one place to shake hands, give high 5's and even hugs. I JUST CAN'T WAIT!!

I am the original adrenaline junky! Back in 1988 I jumped with both feet into a company peddling an UGLY mono chrome UNIX box known as Sun Microsystems. And yes I kept it until early part of 2000. After that run I have spent every spare minute looking for the Big Kahuna to hit again. I spent a lot of time in the tech industry building and repairing companies, which have been ripped in half by the technology industry crash. After 15 years of running around the crazed technology world I called it quits and began Oil and Gas exploration, which has been very good as of late. But I am bored and now I want to ride that emotional wave again....... Day 1: in at .0022 << nice Day 2: .015 << cool Day 3: .22 << happy man Day 4: MM moves in .0011 << gets on airplane to wallstreet and kicks MM's arshe << depressed but smiling in the end!!!!

Woah, so many mirrors, this is freaky! My name is Den, and I'm hooked on copper. After stumbling onto PRVH over a year ago and riding it up, I knew I must be missing out on other penny stocks. Surfed a little and ended up here. First chat room type experience I've ever had. Never used a computer or typed at all until summer of 2000. Owned lots of EXDS at the time and road most of it down to the penny level.I now read charts and artcles until after midnight, and usually one of the last at night to post here. get up before 7:AM every morning to be ready for opening bell. First thing I do is turn on the computer then let the dog out and hit the head.I've got the eating thing handled, but find it very difficult to pull myself away to go to work, many times I don't leave until the closing bell.I have projects backed up and really would rather trade.Weekends are sooo long! My girlfriend is tired of hearing about stocks even though she is up over 100% in her account just from tips. Truth is I'ld rather trade. I'm hooked! Instead of opening up a bank account for my 8 year old son, I introduced him to $100. worth of GRIC on Ameritrade. He's already aware that profits don't always last. Austin Texas 1974 Concert for Love found out while peaking that the 2 1/2 hits of Yellow Sunshine I absorbed were actually 4way tabs. I saw God and Satan that night. Will, well said, I've always felt I do regular as a side job. I ve definately got the addicted personality. dz/Den IP: Logged |

Well, since we are confessing here. My name is Bet, and I have been addicted since January. I started trading slowly last year, but then I got heavy into it this year. I start my ameritrade comand center before I go to bed at night. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night just to see if the GamezNFlix website is up yet. One time I drove 3 hours one way just to see what a competitor stock distribution center looked like. Oh, the best part....I am putting in my two week notice at my job tommorow. IP: Logged |

hi everyone, here is my story: i was a full time college student. i dressed well and my hair was always perfect. i excercised regularly and was in very good shape. i had friends. ...then i found the stock market. fast forward 6 months: dropped out of college. i dont bother getting dressed anymore and its been 6 months since my last hair cut. i shave on the weekends. i forget to eat. the only excersize i get is when i have to go downstairs for something (the laptop comes with me). i am a social outcast. ...i am a daytrader.

This is too funny....I too only shave on the weekends. I also am a college student, but my wife said there is no way I can drop out (I asked her) You see, I am four years into a six year degree. But we came to an agreement and she let me quit my job. Its so hard to concentrate in class. I have my wireless pocket PC and I use a software program called tiny stocks to constantly check my stock prices why I am in class. Thank God my school finally got wirelees internet access. Before they did, you could find me in a computer lab constantly refreshing my real time bullet quote because the school network blocked Java. That really sucked. Now I bring my laptop into a cornor desk in the library and get my fix.

Diana, You are one serious women, with (sounds like) a good sensible head on your shoulders. I liked reading your rules of trading - I added a few of yours to my list, especially about laughing every day. Sure makes ME a lot more tolerable. At least that's what the wife says....
