re: Amazon just crushed earnings

I don't know, but I probably need to add GOOG at some point as a long term hold. I just can't make myself buy Amazon becuase I'm old fashioned, and I believe a company has to eventually make money. It's been a while since I looked, but I think their debt concerned me as well. Facebook and Netflix I'd consider prone to new technology risk.. e.g. Radio Shack and Polaroid.

But I need to look. But I'm guessing Google, or whatever they're called now, is probably what I'd settle on as a buy (after some sort of correction), hold and forget.

Or as much as a guy like me can forget, which is to say, it would be streaming at least Level 2 almost every day, all day long.

But I don't directly own any of these. I might have traded them at some point. But whatever run up there was, I was left outside looking in.
