Graphene can stop a bullet and is clear and one atom thick...

Many uses ...

Batteries , armor , paint , electronics , unlimited fresh water from ocean water and many more...

I hope these benefits arrive sooner than the flying car that Popular Science told me 60 years ago I would soon have.

Some graphine stocks will make people who get in early multi-millionaires, but far and away most graphine companies will likely go bankrupt, in which case, if you invest in their stock you will lose everything. The trick will be to totally luck out and pick the eventual winners early on.

Odds may be a bit better than picking the powerball numbers.
