The satisfaction that us spending money is actually making him money.
Correct.
I have made far more money from Apple Inc. than I have ever given to them.
The way I see it, if you really believe in a company's potential success, you invest in it. AAPL has done the job. If other S&P 500 companies have the potential to outstrip Apple's performance, I will think about adjusting my portfolio.
I'm really an AAPL fanboy, not an Apple fanboy. The day Apple can't walk the walk, I'm outta there (at least as an investor).
Note that I am a shareholder of IBM, ORCL, CSCO, INTC, YHOO, MSFT, and GOOG, but none of those companies have matched AAPL's performance.
Keep buying those Apple products and drive up that share price.
The way I see it, my shares of AAPL are generating a dividend of Apple hardware (plus cash).
