On this day in history in 1986, Microsoft began trading stock on the NASDAQ stock exchange. The initial public offering was set at $28 dollars a share. Bill Gates and his genius were already well known by then so Microsoft raised almost 61 million dollars on that first day.

$1000 Now Worth $1.6 Million

CNBC did the calculations and announced that if you had invested $1,000 in Microsoft’s IPO, today it would be worth more than $1.6 million today with the inclusion of price appreciation and dividends. That’s no small hunk of change in 35 years.

Of Course We Are Not Bill Gates And Microsoft

But as online affiliate marketers we have dreams, knowledge and experience too. So let’s just keep dreaming, learning, working hard and achieving results.

Happy Online Business Building Today.

That " if you had invested" is the past and are most people's regrets friend. Lol! But just like Microsoft, there are still opportunities like that today. Just take a look at Bitcoin back in April of 2011 when it jump from $1 to $32 in June of that same year.
Today, that same Bitcoin would have equaled to over $113,000,000 U.S. dollars, says a company called Morningstar. That's only about 10 years ago!
There are more companies out there that will jump high in value. We just have to do our studies on them and have patience when investing.
But if we can't invest, being an affiliate marketer as you've noted, can be our path to success. We have to personally work for it. I think that is the best investment in our selves. Thanks for an engaging post. All the best!

Thanks for your thoughts. Great content to ponder. Investing is an interesting activity and takes patience.

We are glad that WA members can invest in their future here.

All the best to you too.

Nice tidbit George. Thanks for sharing

You are welcome. Interesting things in history.

That is amazing, George, make that investment and watch it grow.

It certainly is amazing.

Always glad to hear something positive.So many people don't see what we are doing as something meaningful, they believe in the 9-5 routine .Thanks

You are right about that.
We wish you much success as you continue on.

Thank you so much for this great
and useful information.

The key is to have an open mind
about the offering that is available
at hand.

I'm just so grateful to be able to
do just that and I do know that
when the IPO of my own investment
starts, I would be having more than
that in the future.

I do not know if I am allowed to do
this if not I cannot say anything else
to even share it with anybody who
is interested.

Other than that, your posts should
be a huge lesson to all of us.

Thank you ever so much for sharing
and really do appreciate you.

God bless you!

Elizabeth
