So, I kind of move it around in the market and it wasn't money that I was to use or to spend or anything like that, so it's purely kind of educational and my dad had always, always kind of been involved with a small amount of investing and trading on the side, and he would mention things to me. And so, in my senior year in high school, we decided to open up that account and, you know, it lay dormant the first few years. And I actually didn't get involved with the whole dot-com boom...
