I hear a lot of people bitching about Worldcom lately. Personally I am kicking myself for not having the money to take advantage of such an opportunity. On Monday I casually mentioned to someone I'd like to invest a few thousand dollars in Worldcom, because their stock had just plummeted to 6 cents a share. The guy thought I was crazy. "Fucking crazy" were his exact words. Had I purchased $5000 worth of Worldcom stock on Monday and sold it at today's closing price of 25 cents, I would have made over $15,000. Actually selling it at Wednesday's close of 29 cents would have made almost $20,000. If only I had had the cash to act on that hunch.
