I’ll add Monsanto (MON) to the list of evil companies too. It’s killing small farmers with law suits and creates questionable (related to health concerns) patented new crops and brings in a ton of cash. I owned it for a while in my IRA before selling covered calls on it and getting out. The company is going to exist with or without me investing, so I might as well take profits from it and use that $ to buy organic foods they don’t manufacture. It’s a win-win for me, let their growth pay for my better eating and if they don’t grow I get to see another evil company fall.

The concept of a sinful investment has gotten to me in the past. I have yet to investing in Tobacco companies and the like based on what I know about the industry. In the end it is a person’s choice, but still this gets to me for some reason.

And wild you gotta love Starbucks man! Those frappuccinos get me every time…

You know when I first started in the stock market, I was told about a stock symbol called RICK. It’s the stock symbol for Rick’s Cabaret. I was going to invest in it, but the combination of my lack of confidence and my girlfriend semi-jokingly not to invest in a strip club company made me decide to stay out of the company. It was around 4-5 dollars when I was interested in the stock. It’s around $18 now. That was less than two years ago.
