if you bought it a few weeks ago you'd have already doubled your money :fullofwin:

the banks having been buying up their shares so its doubled

I dont know shit about investing. But I do know a lot of people have been betting RIM will fail and that has really helped to push the stock down. My conspiracy tinfoil hat says with as much shorting as there is against RIM, there has to be a a friend of a friend in the media pushing out stories to help bury RIM to help the big players doing all the shorting make their money. January 30 BB10 launches and, I would expect to see RIM make a huge turn around. both the BB10 hardware and software have been getting outstanding reviews by the tech guys, so it looks promising. And they are starting to get celebs on board via twitter. And at this point, if the stock goes up a couple bucks you could make a 50% return pretty quick. From the outside it might look like RIM is going to fail due to all the negative press it's gotten over the last year and a half, but I really do think the company is going to turn around strong.

At the price of RIM right now, it's too risky. If it were still at the $6-7 mark I would feel more confident. But, at $13 it seems too risky imo.

I can't see BB10 taking off when everyone I know has either an Apple or Android phone that can do everything a BB10 can. I've gotten used to WhatsApp/KIK so BBM is of little value, especially since none of my friends have a berry anymore.

going to invest that 500 into the main & terminal mcdonalds :alone

I've got a bridge to sell you.
