Take it easy Carmine, you’ll blow a gasket. In the beginning, Dyson the tinkerer knew less than many vacuum repair men, but it was his belief system (faith) that made him a billionaire. Nice guys do finish first... he remains a nice, giving fellow too. Jealous? DIB
Lord, please make us all billionaires so we can be nice too.
Amen, Venson

I was merely exercising my faith too. It is written, "Ask and you shall receive. Knock and the door shall be opened."

DIB: It doesn't take genius to parlay $7.5 MILLION in legal winnings into $1.6 Billion in 7 years. I could have done just as well, if not better, right at my computer with an investment in Berkshire Hathaway. Jealous? Of money? Me? You're the one that always brings it up. Not me. Money is never a measure of human success. At my age, I measure my success by the number of people who I want to love me; if they actually do. Not to worry. You are not on the list. Carmine D.

Why didn't you do it . You definitely are not a genious. May not take a genious but apparently it takes more sense than you have.

HS: How do you know I didn't? Maybe I did. Maybe it was McDonalds. 100 shares in 1965 for $2200 were worth 18,000 shares and $500,000 in 1987. Or maybe it was Genentech in the 1980's? Or was it Valero in 1990's? Or maybe it is Celgene in the 2000's and still? Maybe it was commodities: Like gold? In 2002, it was $250 an ounce, and today it's over $800. Maybe it was gold mining stocks too? Or maybe, just maybe it was all of the above AND Berkshire Hathaway too! You don't know for sure, do you? It only takes one of the above and the right market timing. Let me reiterate for you HS: At my age, you don't measure success in money. You measure by the number of people that you want to love you; if they actually do. Not to worry. You're not on the list either. Carmine D.

HS: It's genius! And........you don't know that for sure, either. I may not be a member of MENSA, but that doesn't mean that I don't meet their requirements. It just means I choose not to join.  Carmine D.

Carmine, This is the second time you claim to have what it takes to become a billionaire (or at minimum, a multi-millionaire). Stop. Please. Google - billionaire + "James Dyson". Lots and lots of people like a good come from behind story... see for yourself. DIB
