Do You Own Best Buy Stock? If so, you need to consider the following…

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

Hello and thank you for reading my very first post on my blog.  I got to tell you, I’m a bit of a procrastinator, so setting this up has taken forever as I’ve always seemed to find better things to do with my time.  Unfortunately, following a recent visit to Best Buy (Cambie location in Vancouver), my frustration level boiled and became the catylist in having this blog finally started.

I couldn’t help but see how far this company is going down the drain.  Armed with a $2000 home theatre budget, and ready to buy, no one was willing to help.  In fact, the entire store appeared to only have only 4 - 5 employees working!  Anyway, this is nothing new at Best Buy’s here in Vancouver.  I believe since they are aparantly not on commission, they just don’t care.

So, for all those that own stock in Best Buy… I suggest you take a stroll down to your nearest location and see how they operate.  Then ask yourself if they really deserve to be in your portfolio.
