We were busy living. Grandmother never had any problems in that department. For all her evidently very careful ways with setting aside money over the years, Gran had lived a very nice life and had been around the world. A stock that happens to trade publicly is nothing more than an ownership claim on a corporation. If you don't think of yourself as a business owner and think more of yourself as an owner of slips of paper that are readily tradable in the market, your chances of doing well are greatly reduced.
Business is business, whether it's a public or private company.
I'll love you always. The screen went dark. Grandmother could do anything, and this was just more proof of that. Ted hadn't thought that much about investing in the market. Of course, his competitors were publicly traded, but Gran had always said the more you worry about your competitors or their stock prices, the less you're going to do for your own business.
