Money

My money is once again on Audible.com (ADBL). I bought this stock back when it was on OTC-BB and selling for $1.19 or so. Since then, Audible did a reverse split to get on NSADAQ and its price has gone up quite considerably. I sold it (probably shouldn't have) for double and a half of what I bought it for and paid off some old student loans.

If you can get a piece at around $16, I would suggest buying in - but who am I? Well, I'm an Audible member and someone who has already profited from them once.
