All I did was take some money that otherwise might have been spent in Vegas and placed it on this after reading a compelling argument for WaMu. The more I read, the more I think WaMu is going to come away with a settlement. Just my opinion.
Disclaimer: For anyone reading this, despite my beliefs this stock should still be treated as a hero or zero. Meaning you have to understand if a settlement is not reached your money will be gone. The risk is very very high for any bankrupt companies stock. Due your DD and decide for yourselves. But I strongly recommend you do not invest a large portion of your assets into this stock. Mine is less than 1% of my portfolio....and I am very very positive on the stock.... I will not put more in... that should tell you how risky it is.
Do you go to Vegas a lot? My friends want me to go down in November. I haven't been there in years. I'm not a big gambler, but I've always had good luck when I do go to casinos, which is rarely. I won in AC this weekend. I paid for our trip, including expenses, and came home with a couple hundred extra. I just am really lucky, it's weird. I did not care for the Taj Mahal though. Very overrated. I spent most of my time down the boardwalk at Caeser's, which had a much more Vegas-y feel, and a great beach bar. I went back to the Taj to meet up with everyone at dinner time, and they did have a fabulous Italian place - Il Mulino- which did an incredible wild mushroom risotto.
But I'm in no rush to go back. I'm not sure about Vegas in the fall either. My bf came with me because I had to go to a wedding, but he is sooo not vegas or ac, it's not even funny. He stayed in the room and read during the days. It was pretty funny, but that's why we get a long so well - we each do our own thing and then meet up at night.
Do you lose a lot of money in Vegas? I bet they see you coming, am I right?
