It started off as an attempt to help the relief efforts in Japan while helping our bottom line. It turned into an investment in a heavy duty equipment company. We chose the stock because it does not appear to have peaked yet and has the potential for long term growth. If we can fulfill our philanthropic goals while making a profit, I think that we’ve made one of our best investments to date.
Agreed!!! Although we believe in and support the rebuilding of Japan, we are afterall an investment group, therefore, making money is an essential and necessary component of the group. We will certainly meet our philantropic goals and hopefully make a killing at the same time. Afterall, you need to have money inorder to support those philantropic goals, isn’t this what millionaires do? We are just taking a page out of their book in an effort to build up our portifolio.
