What have been your returns, over the past 20 years, Naustica? Ohhh wait, you're a failed trader.
I bet you're still fawning over those retarded charts which haven't been proven by one empirical, peer reviewed, study that has examined risk-adjusted long-term results.
I am going to bookmark this and rub your face in your own stupidity in a year. At that time I expect to see a picture of you wiping Buffett's ass because that's all you'll ever measure up to.
Judging by your near bottom tier performance so far in the ATOT
Stock Market Game, I would guess my returns > yours. I know it's only been 2 short months but we can revisit that topic this time next year.
You're going to rub my face in what?
hahahahaa, you are trying to prove somethign through a game?
I hate to tell you this but those short term games are stupid. The way most real investors invest (long term) and the way they would play a game (12 months) are totally different. I'd load up on penny stocks. I wouldn't even care about them. I'd buy 2 random ones and hope that one gets a 1000% return in a year. I would never use my own money this way.
Heh.
That was with the previous games on the VSE website.
Not so with this year's game on Marketocracy.
The one on Marketocracy doesn't(shouldn't) have an end date, but then again I'm not the one running it so I don't know how long Bonkers wants it to go on for.
Impossible to load up on penny stocks since you're paying a transaction fee of 5 cents per share.
I only paid 5 cents commission for a BRK.A share whereas someone buying $100k worth of a stock trading at 20 cents would pay a $25k commission. :thumbsup:
I don't know how everyone else has been playing that game, but the stocks I bought there
are what I would buy(or already own) in real life(JNJ, UNP, etc...).
I was hoping the competition
would be based on what people would buy in real life, not "play money".
Of course I'm only using this to better myself and monitor myself. Others may be playing just to prove a point, just for fun, or for other reasons.
