I wonder if that was a bug in the VSE setup???? the history all shows MO stocks in the 20 to 24.5 range

Looks like I took the biggest hit with that. Top 10 to last place... But this has to be an error of some kind...

Well I went from #2 to #8 when all was said and done. We still have 3 who have yet to invest which is one way not to lose your money.

Tomorrow is another day. RAID & Steve Jobs (Holding Microsoft) are the ones to catch.

Well I read that Altria (MO) split and has a Phillip Morris spinoff now. They started trading separate today. That is why. But those of us with MO, should have either got our equal shares of Philip Morris or they should have increased our shares to equal our total dollar amount that we had previously with MO.

PO, hitman took the biggest hit... he was down like 45% and $4500 but he cancelled the username he had with those stocks and started fresh...

By the time it was said and done, I was completely broke. I would never have recovered from that.

once they prorated the split, you would have been only down a few pennies instead of several thousand... watch Prolific_ones account and see if they make the needed changes...

I wasn't going to make a big thing of it, but screwballl took it upon himself to point out my great misfortune today. Well at least I know if my life ever goes to shit I can just tell screwballl about it and he will make sure the whole world knows.
