I can't imagine the stress this must've caused you! It really pisses me off when I don't save my post and then it disappears and I have to start all over again. It has become much easier since I acquired this Dragon speaking program that allows me to speak the words instead of having to type them! It makes it much easier for an old fark like me. As others have said, welcome back. Rich

Where is the BP Store?2/6/2012 2:24 PM

I need to buy some new BP threads

Preferably a black hoody sweater. A fitted hat would be schweet as well. No way I'm showing up in March without proper winter attire. You know us Arizonans only own shorts and short sleeve tshirts.

I can't find it, link please Steve Babiak

I've got to tell you . . . I'm so happy that I don't have to spend as much time as I've been spending on Facebook anymore. It was very useful, but I'm glad to be back connecting with everyone back here on BP!

Growing into HUGE deals2/6/2012 2:13 PM

Now the question...How does an investor grow himself from the level I am to that level? How do I grow to where I can think that big?

Now you know Greg, that Ross's daddy made a billion dollars for the family even before they started on Alliance. But even when he was running EDS, Ross Sr. had a keen sense of real estate. He bought way more land than the company needed, way far north in Plano, which was the boonies for a big tech company in the 1970's.

When it came time to build a new building on campus they would sell off a piece of land and then build for cash. His view was to buy in the way of growth, which he did masterfully along the Dallas North Tollway, or where it would be in the future. All this before Alliance.

Hey Josh,

Next time you want to take a break and watch the Superbowl, just leave the website on auto-pilot :)

Glad you were able to get the site back up.

Jim

Good to see it back up and running. This could all be a good subject for the investors here. It's a reminder of the need for a contingency plan, in case we go offline for a little bit.
