What's a poor white boy from Arkansas to ?

Alright, I will be the first one to confess I need advice. I cashed in some dollar leaking mutual funds and took some lame advice. I bought 70 shares of POT at $160.00 and 4000 shares of SIRI at $1.29 What I need now is someone to get a good feeling by making me an extremely wealthy Arkansas.
I have always been a big fan of Sirus XM and since the merger is over, what's the deal ?
If any of you want to make a man with my really unuasual name rich, you will be rewarded in heaven. To the other people who dis not help make me rich I say, what did u do to day?

Well if you want to get rich and don't mind losing it all then you may as well load up. There is more volatility now that in any time in recent memory. Although I wouldn't recommend that plan
