Wow Sports, really? That is the point I have been trying to make without stating it so bluntly. Perhaps I should have. I felt that if I were too blunt I would get kicked off the board or something. That has been my whole point, move on to something else, make some money and then get back in once Afrezza has proven itself. If anyone knows a better strategy I'm all ears. I get you. My point was not to pull out, but to focus on making money in other places. It can start to drive you crazy if you don't. In the end though, if you can't imagine Afrezza's success then you will never be able to hold your position. It's like if you can't imagine running a 5k you will never try. I get wanting to wait until it's safe. A sure bet. But will it ever be? There will always be bumps in the road. It takes a lot of patience to make money. I'm more concerned down the road with when to get out:-) |

If the new sales force has an impact and script counts improve then I'll get back in. Right now I'm content with being out. |

I see more up side because of all the shorts that need to cover. Some day when everyone else knows what we know then I'll take some profits.

I guess we can agree to disagree. IMO Throwing good money after bad is not dead money its not living in reality. Dead money is not 3-4 years of losses its a bad investment the investor has not come to terms with. Hope is not reality.  Bears have won, and anyone invested at this point is invested in that changing. |

Perfect example of not living in reality You are judging people wrongly... just because some people have decided to invest in a possibility doesn't mean that they aren't based in reality.. they have simply chose to take the risk... no one here knows for sure what is going to happen including you... they aren't pumping so why do you care?? |

Perfect example of not living in reality Actually playing both hopium and reality at the same time has worked out well for me. HOPIUM) I have kept a core position, large enough to where if something unexpected did arise like a buyout for example, I wouldn't feel like I missed out on anything. REALITY) And from day 1, I have traded 5000 shares around this core, not to the point that I'm making great money, but definitely enough to soften the blow to my core position. I can say this, having these 5000 shares that I trade every chance I get has added a little excitement from time to time, to an otherwise very boring investment, (lately anyways), it gives me little victories, something I can feel good about while I wait for my core position to catch up. As always Good Luck Everybody ! |

"Bill Gates won. Steve Jobs lost. Apple is history." That's what my boss and mentor advised me when I told him that I had just bought stock in Apple Computer right after Apple's BoD hired Jobs back. He thought that Apple had a great niche product. I knew that what I was investing in was more than a "niche" company and I put my daughters through college with the profit I made from AAPL. That's my reality. Good fortune all. |

That's my reality. Good fortune all. I hope your luck holds. If the sales team can turn this around, I'll buy all of you a drink or 12 and we'll share it on my new yacht! In reality, I'll probably have to toast you all from the poor house after I see my investment account fade into oblivion. But hey, there will be a drink either way. |

Probably still could have put her through college if you went w microsoft.
I saw a piece on Ron Wayne a couple years back. Lives near Vegas in a modest home. Has lead an ordinary life.
He designed the original apple logo which i think was Newton sitting under a tree (if anyone cares to find it and post it)
It should be noted he could have bought back in too
Now back to Mannkind...those of us hoping for a second home or more comfortable retirement with our investment can stop hoping.
