... "Oprah will get an impressive return on her investment"
Traci Mann, Ph.D., is a professor of psychology at the University of Minnesota and the author of Secrets From the Eating Lab: The Science of Weight Loss, the Myth of Willpower, and Why You Should Never Diet Again.

Since the stock’s post-Oprah investment closing peak of $26.61 on Nov. 18, Winfrey has seen paper profits of as much as $97.4 million evaporate.
But Winfrey bought her shares at the Oct. 18 closing price of $6.79, filings show, meaning she is still up $28.7 million, or 66%, on her initial investment.
If she exercises her option to buy an additional 3,513,468 shares, at the same price of $6.79, she could be up as much as $44.5 million on her Weight Watchers bet.
Winfrey has to wait nearly 20 months before she can start cashing in, since she made a deal with the company in October not to sell any shares for two years, subject to certain limited exceptions.
