Google wealth vs. Microsoft wealth

Last week there was a conference at Northeastern Illinois University last week centered around the use of technology. The speakers of the conference were from Google's Chicago office, You Tube, and Motorola.

There was something I noticed very interesting before the You Tube presentation was about to begin. The You Tube executive was using an IPhone! Now, I don't know the specifics of what restrictions Google employees are put under as far as product usage, but using another company's products would not happen with Microsoft. This is a shift from the Microsoft model of employee product usage.

It is well known that Microsoft employees are required to use the Microsoft version of any product if available. The Gates family has been regularly asked by the press if any carry an Apple product and always answering that they use Microsoft products.

The YouTube employee using the IPhone (made from Apple) is in direct competition to its Google phone products. The guess is that the execs at Google, while still wanting their employees to use its products, allow them to freely choose to use whatever products they like without trouble.

I have a web site where I give advise on penny stocks and stocks under five dollars. I have many years of experience with these type of stocks. If their is anyone that is interested in these type of stocks you can check out my web site by just clicking my name. I would like to take a moment to talk about low price stocks not classic penny stocks or stocks under one dollar the term most people most often think of when the word penny stock is used. The single most important thing that investors must realize about low price stocks or stocks under five dollars is this’ their are companies of really decent quality trading under five dollars’ but for every one company trading under five dollars that is of decent quality their are maybe ten of poor quality. So the really big difference between those investors that are tremendously successfull when it comes to investing in low price stocks and those investors that lose enormous amounts of money investing in stocks under five dollars’ is having a great deal of knowledge and experience when it comes to low price stocks’ or having a total lack of knowledge and experience when it comes to low price stocks. Finding quality stocks under five dollars requires a lot more research than finding a decent stock above ten dollars.
