    The Internet Money Machine (1999): The young and adventurous have never had it so good, thanks to the soaring value of the late 90s tech industry - so why are some people predicting a downturn?
    Subscribe to Journeyman for daily current affairs and world news: www.youtube.com...
    In a small New York office, casually dressed twenty-somethings gamble thousands with the click of a mouse. On average these day traders keep their volatile shares for just 4½ minutes. It’s a world away from the sweaty hollering of Wall Streets’ New York Stock Exchange. In just one year, 25 year-old Nick Birbas has gone from waiter to laptop legend riding the bull market and earning $10,000 a week. So will the bubble burst? Like many other internet firms Globe.com have yet to turn a profit. In the clubs of Wall Street many believe stocks like theirs have been wildly over-valued. “Old timers like us wait for the day of reckoning,” smirks one analyst. But for now there really seems to be no end to this boom.

      You'd be surprised. If you put 1000 into amazon in 1997 after their IPO you'd have more than 1m in your pocket today. It wasn't a slow rise after the crash either. They met their pre-bubble peak in stock price in less than 6 years. There was a lot of wreckage, but there was a lot of action after the crash too (obviously).
