Should I Buy 2 Shares of AAPL or 1 iPad?

Hi guys and girls!  Well, now that the big 15th tax deadline is done with I’ve got good news for you and me.    Well, for you I get to open up the trading office again.  And for me?  I get to claim my annual April bonus I made up just to make myself feel better for all the crap I put up with from March to April.  So, I need your help since I can’t decide.  What should I reward myself with?  Vote in the comments section.  Thanks!

a)  iPad
steve-jobs-ipad-apple-ap
+  I don’t have an iTouch, so getting an iPad will simply destroy all those arrogant iTouch elitest.
+  Sexiest piece of technology since Catherine Zeta Jones held a cellphone.

tmo-zeta-jones-androinica
+  I can write it off
–  Many of my friends are Apple haters.
–  What will I do with it?
–  It will be stolen in 4 months time

 

b)  2 shares of AAPL:
apple-stock
+  I could if I wanted to, cash it out in 13 months, and by then AAPL would be up 20%, and the iPad would be 10% cheaper, thereby making me save about 30% off.
–  By then, they will come out with an iPad with a USB port.
+  I get to tell my friends, “What?  You have an iTouch?  I frickin own AAPL son.”
–  AAPL stock could go down too.  :/

 

c)  3 nights on Lanai at the Lodge or at the 4 Seasons:

+ Getting away from the office, paper stacks, copy machines, ugly interns (sorry dude.  haha.), empty StarBucks cups, and ringing phones can be one of the most rewarding ways to spend a weekend.
–  End up spending more money on food and old-people entertainment

d)  Party at Dave n Busters

+  Something about including your friends in your rewards that makes it… rewarding.
–  Someone will drink too much, and the night will be remembered for someone revealing too much of what we don’t want to hear… or see.
+  We can all combine our tickets from the $100 worth of games played on Deal or No Deal and Skee Ball, and exchange it for a shot-glass or a whoopy cushion.

e)  Other  (you tell me!  Keep it at $500ish please.)

    buy however many ipads are in stock, keep one, jack up the price and sell the rest on ebay to all those poor non-American bastards who won’t get to buy one for another few months. take the profit go to Lanai and spend some pool time on your ipad researching the next big movers to invest the remainder of your profits in. oh and you could blow some cash on a brew and some games at D&B’s also but why?
