bought glaxo at right time last time
bought more hsbc this year at 550 Mark Howitt so when u take divis into account it’s ok- i believe they’ll go up in future”
On a more official note I would like to say A BIG THANK YOU to around 100,000 people who’ve read my writing on this site. I will write a bit more about this on my blog. Quite a few people have been asking me if I’ll write for ShareProphets again… well that’s up to Tom really. I would like to in future but know that I have a lot to learn- including ‘listening to my elders and betters’. I remain a long term buy and hold share investor with a six figure share portfolio and every day is a learning and goal day.

100,000? er…not quite. Never say never but as I have made clear this site will be moving in a different direction in 2016 as folks will see. Merry Christmas to you anyway, I hope you have fun up in the Grim North

Lol I guess it might not quite be 100,000 but wouldn’t be too far off!
I’ll probably be playing poker on goal day- every day is goal day.
Just finished reading Chris Oil part 2 which was quite fun… I’m sure whatever happens I’ll read some more of ShareProphets in 2016 :)
