Fortunately I put all my retirement in the Snapchat IPO, so I should be set.

I'm deep into Beanie Babies at the moment.
As soon as the price comes back up I'll sell. |

Could Joe Sixpack investor have even been able to get a piece of their IPO back then or was it institutional investors only?

and if a frog had wing he wouldn't bump his ass he hopped.
for every Apple/facebook/amazon millionaire there's got to be hundreds of guys that took a hit, large or small, on World Com, Ernon, and the like. Broad based market funds. otherwise you're just guessing and gambling. |

No one was going to let a 17 year old in on that sweet, sweet dot com IPO action back in the day.
And I didn't have $1k handy. I was 17. It was all I had to keep gas in the tank. |

I bought at 12 and sold at 25 and it was a roller coaster ride then. I was Happy. No use worrying about what could have been.

My dad bought me $50 worth in his account using my money. About a year or two later I sold it and broke even. Not really sure why my dad let me or what he wanted me to learn, but I did learn it wasn't a sure fire get rich quick method which is probably what I was expecting. |

Not hardly, LOL.
AMZN IPO'ed at $18 = 55.56 shares. After splits, you would hold 666.72 shares. At today's close of $957.97 = $638,697.76. And that, my friends, is how you get rich. |
