so much for the "January Effect"

[bran987]

That's not always luck

You may leave a confortable job to join a startup with the hope of IPO and big bucks

you are stuck in the year 2000 my friend! But anyway, that's not really "investing" in stocks anyway. If you have the talent to "predict" which companies will one day IPO and rocket upwards that is as much "talent" as being able to build the company yourself in my opinion, so you deserve the money.

actually it was one of the largest IPO's in history (maybe #1)
anyway they only have 1,500 employees.
you really don't think those secretaries working at Microsoft in 1983 were lucky? you think they knew it would be the biggest company in the world someday? I don't.

No.

I just buy and sell, whenever... not really a job. When I have time, I can devote more concentration to it. I get by. Just a cash account, long positions.

Neither do I

But I've no problem with them driving a Ferrari now

some win the lottery
Some inherit fortunes
Some use not so legal "jobs"
some sleep with the Boss
Some just have nice tits and ass

I'm more concerned about my boss not figuring out how much valuable I'm

i've heard of that movie.

enderje said it sucked.

Short selling is too much of a risk (for me) if you can't spend enough time watching the markets

why not use a "stop"???
im better at shorting dont nkow why..i actually look at all my charts upside down this way my brain will look for a sell and it may actually be a buy..

well, for the most part you are right. I'm of the opinion that people who are trying to create their fortune through stocks are in for a rough surprise. There is simply no way to go from $10,000 to $1,000,000 in stocks without waiting your whole life. The same goes for buying houses or buildings and renting them out.

All these things are wealth preservation tools, they will earn you a normal rate of return on your money, somewhere between 6-12% over the long term. To actually become wealthy before you are over the hill or justp lain old, you have to be able to create the money some other way, either by having an extremely high paying job (hmm... did I just see someone walking on the sky, matt?) or by creating/owning a business and building it to an enterprise worth millions.

you must be crazy 1,000,000 over a life time...... guess if you don't know what you are doing yeah, i personally know 2 people that are up over 40,000% over the past 2 yrs, the most insane i've seen was 500 to 1.2 million over 8 months lol...... trading stocks like HOFF, UCSY, and RSTG makes it real easy

kunta is the man. Good bro.
