So I made an accout at howthemarketworks, since it's probably wise to learn how to invest when I'm young, and saw they have competitions. I took one of their requirements for the settings with my first investment scenario thingy, 25000 in play money with a month to invest, making maximum profit. I figured, gold would be a nice investment, let's invest like fifty shares. That was two days ago.
Just yesterday, when the market closed, GLD closed with a -6% change. Already at -1000 in profit thanks to that. Market stability comes running back knocking down material stocks. Hah, love the timing.

| I have learned from poker that being at the table is not a grind, the grind is living and poker is how I pass the time | |

Really good idea to develop an interest in the market, really bad timing. The market has been shitting all over itself for the past couple weeks. Could be worse, you could be stuck 10 points on RIG. |

Wow dude, sick beat. Keep your head up. Saw some people living at the dump today, trying to salvage aluminum and copper--good fall back plan if your play money bankroll gets bad-beated again. |

I looked into emerging cannabis businesses, mostly research ones, but the strong businesses have at least 100$+ stocks. I'm sure investing in one of them for a long-term plan would be a good idea. Jobs resigned as CEO, and there's some speculation that Apple will only degrade from that. Oh, stock market, you so nose-bleed. |

A different portfolio, only 5000 starting out. I'm going to wait a few months to sell these.
That 2000 stocker is 888 poker. Lol.
