Sr. Associate

I am not going to say I am sorry for adding AFN to my portfolio back in 07. She has stopped dividend payment and fallen into the penny pit so I am selling half my position for a tax write off in 08 and holding the other half for 09. I said AFN was a hi risk with great dividend at the time. Movin on.
