the current performance of the picks in my stock portfolio: $16,844.48. red because that's negative, baby. most of that is the bath i'm taking on webvan. at this point, selling the stock would just barely cover the commission on the sale. this doesn't count the money i theoretically have tied up in some idealab! shares. i'm not a complete idiot -- i actually made money on be. of course, then i plowed that money into webvan, so maybe i am an idiot. if i weren't a coward, i'd actually pick up some shares of apple. the new imacs look pretty dumb, but the other stuff they've rolled out recently is impressive.
