Last week, I recommended to my parents that they purchase shares of Apple since, as I've mentioned, their value has been rising and probably will continue to do so for some time. Plus Apple's gonna showcase Leopard and new products next week. So they bought 200 shares. The price has since went up $8 a share, which means they've made $1600 in a week by doing nothing. It's cool to own stock. *knock on wood*

Just a week before I go back. I miss it here already.
