Last night I was thinking to myself "I have a hell of a capital gains problem if I sell" I'm looking forward to the merger because I also have APHA and those shares will convert to TLRY at something like .8 per share. Should be fun to watch it all play out. At the speed congress works we could possibly see federal decriminalization in our lifetime. 
Even without the US the euro deal is enough to ensure growth.
Cheers

you’ll be waiting months...likely years before we see these numbers again. The gains outweighs the tax implications for me.

I've had 80+% of my stocks for over 20 years. I bought TLRY after a golf buddy (retired US Marshall) told me about it over a year ago. In my opinion, the whole "get rich quick" stock dream is just that.... A dream that requires a TON of luck for the average investor and the odds are against winning with that mindset. Build a nice portfolio of solid stocks. The dividends alone can be quite rewarding.

MACGX was 125% over the index according to Morningstar. I must be really lucky, because I know I’m not that good. But using a method one of my customers showed me who was a money manager has worked exceptionally well for me. But you have to pay attention to everything. So far I’m at 538% for the last year.
