Yes, & several of the posters here are old enough (& lucky enough) to have first "Seen The Light" in the early 90's,(~14%/yr to date).
We have also been handcuffed by Washington, & in my case Sacramento, to Hold The G..D... Stock!
This has no doubt been a blessing in disguise (for me) however, I also wonder what the returns would have been if taxes were not an overriding consideration.
I ask myself, If I was as "savvy" as Mungo & taxes were not a concern, what would the account look like today?

Only Jim can make an estimate & I would love to know his answer!
