When I worked at DL, I got into the employee stock purchase program. By the time I quit in 1998, I had amassed three and some change shares of stock. Then it did a three for one split, and all of a sudden I had more than 10 shares! Then the bottom fell out of the stock, and it's been in the red ever since. I forget off hand how much I paid for the stuff, but the eleven + shares I currently own aren't worth what I paid for 3 back in '98! Now the real bummer part about this: My wife got me one share of Pixar in 2004 for our anniversary. And then it split! The two shares of Pixar were way outperforming my Disney, and I was all happy. And now that Disney has bought Pixar, I'm just gonna have more crappy, underperforming Disney stock! I hate Disney. Except the Tiki Room. That still rocks. And so do Dole Whips.
