I kind of stumbled across GTAT. I saw it mentioned early last year in a boating magazine article about displays. Made a note and forgot about it. Found my note last fall and decided to buy it.
I’m watching Silver Wheaton (SLW) right now. I’ve traded this many times over the past 3 years. But I Haven’t done anything with it for 6 months. Lately it’s been flat. I have gotten 10% to 30% holding it for only a few months.
I’ve discovered it’s better for me to only own one stock at a time in my trading account. So I usually have all my eggs in one basket. A big win or a big lost.
We’re getting ready to buy a new boat and live full time on it. Going to go cruising.
There's a couple that live near by me and the guy was telling me how he did that and loved it. Go anywhere, fuel was free, living expenses minimal. Reason they moved to land was one time they harbored and got boarded by Colombian pirates that couldn't believe they didn't have or need money. They shot him & his wife and left 'em but he got medical help called in at a Colombian harbor police station --which had been only a hundred feet away at the time!
They still miss the life at sea --except for that...
That would be so neat. Until I get seasick. What kind of license do you need? What communication devices are on board (I need internet at ALL times)? Any problems going overseas? I specifically love Hawaii. I have a core in SLW.
