I didn’t buy at $100 a share. I didn’t buy at $250 a share. I didn’t buy at $500 a share. $1000 a share I finally learned my lesson. Glad I did.

I don’t see it stopping anytime soon. They might take over the world.

Only question is how long will it take them to get there.

Yes, of course it will. Only reason it wouldn’t is if it splits.

I kept watching it. And watching it.... Finally got in at 1210 and felt like an idiot. It's only stock that was positive for me today. Now I am kicking myself for not buying more.

I feel like I should just dump $35k into Amazon stock and it would literally be as safe as a money market account and earn a whole lot more. Am I wrong?

depends on what percentage of your portfolio that would be. It's definitely great to own, but nothing is a sure bet.

Yes, at least in your saying that AMZN is as safe as a money market account. We could find out tomorrow that Amazon Corporate keeps a child sex slave dungeon under its board room. shite happens. Chasing returns at the expense of diversification is a dangerous game to play.

How would you feel about buying it now? I know of people who could have gotten it at sub-$1,000, but didn't and kick themselves for it. I know others who DID buy at that point thinking it was a stretch and now they're not complaining, of course. It's really intriguing if they do, in fact, split this year.

I figured going to extremes would be more fun than giving more realistic examples

Someone could #metoo Jeff Bezos tomorrow, which creates just enough instability to allow some well placed potential competitor just enough room to maneuver in and steal market share. Is it likely to happen? No, not really. But at the end of the day, it's not like Amazon has anything approaching de jure market rigidity. They have name recognition and a metric frickton of logistics infrastructure. Amazon could take over the world, or it could not exist in twenty years. Again, shite happens

No one today regrets buying Apple at $100 instead of getting in at $60, same can be said of many companies.

Amazon and FB understand consumer behavior far too much to ever go anywhere (minus a child sex slave) in my lifetime. I have loaded up on FB since ~$150.
