Nope only post on here and am a novice PI. Have been lurking around the forums for a few months, probably since just after Christmas. I've made a few quid and lost a few quid - especially on Carillion - I wok in a construction related industry and thought that there was no way they would be allowed to go under, but I have only used funds from my savings that, although I don't want to lose, feel i may be able to get a better return from here - that being said I am now up on my original investment. Decided to start posting purely on the basis that no one else seems to be and to see if anyone had any insight I may find useful. I can obviously sense a lot of bitterness and suspicion which is fair enough but if people have lost out big then I really can't help but think why would they put all there eggs in one basket, especially on an AIM stock? I've said it before but I've been invested in Wolseley by way of certificates for over 10 years and have a fair chunk but want to sell some to invest elsewhere as I remember on the last consolidation I got screwed a bit. It didn't matter in the long run but the special dividend issued - which I have set to automatically re invest in the firm - didn't cover the decrease in share value which I felt was a con so not keen to have that happen again. So there we go, hopfully this may alleviate any suspicion but if not then feel free to ask away. Cheers.
