I don't think I'd have a huge position in it long term either. But this is one of those Higher risk long term growth opportunities I would hold on to. We are talking $400 for 100 shares. If that's a small portion of your portfolio I like ZNGA as turnaround growth play. I've done this over the years with Smith and Wesson and RiteAid. Both of which paid off enormously after about 5 years. Trust me...I've lost too! But I like to take portion of my portfolio, do some homework, and bet on companies that may grow in the future. That's the portion of a portfolio things like this are good for. And at $4/share you can do this with a small amount of risk. But your ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! ......different strokes!
