Once again I love Mesa, after they made me a ton of money last week I sold their stock, however I bought 30,000 shares again at .10, today they are up 35 percent as of now, I am thinking I am going to sell today.

Thank you JO, whatever you are doing keep doing it!
 
Good for you. Keep riding the roller coaster. I did it with NWA stock during the bankruptcy when the stock became a pink sheet. You can make money if you are watching it and paying attention to it daily.
 
Man I wish I had some free money right now...oh wait...when's my unemployment check getting here again?
 
Yeah, overall my stocks are up, Mesa came back down, but I managed to sell them at .15 then bought the 30,000 shares back at .13. I am addicted. Buying and selling stock is like a socially acceptable form of gambling.

I thought if you had it less then a year you got taxed majorly? 1500 and getting taxed isnt that great of a deal I dont think?

the tax rate drops to 15% if you hold it for a year. The tax is higher, but it's not always a good idea to hold a stock for the tax break

Yeah, if you hold it for more than a year you get taxed at 15 percent. Less then a year you get taxed at whatever your tax bracket. And there is no way in hel! I am holding Mesa for a few days. I pay the tax and take the profits, either way I am ahead.
 
Yes, although they suck less when their stock is making you a lot of money. Total for the last three weeks has me up a few thousand dollars.
 
general investing make wise investments first and worry about the taxes later...at least that used to be the rule, wh knows once Princess Peloci and reid get done with the budget.
 
Good for you man. A lot of money to be made right now while everyone is freaking out.

Yeah, who wants free money if you only get to keep most of it?
