OK so Op you need to diversify your portfolio. Depending on age I would have about 80% in stocks and 20% bonds for starters. No individual stock should be more than 5% of your portfolio. So in theory no less than 20 stocks in your portfolio.

My picks Netflix, Apple, Google, ruger, McDonalds, vw and definitely chipotle.

Chipotle right now is under valued so it has potential to come back to 2014 levels after the food poisoning issues.

VW had dieselgate, where they lied about emissions. They are under valued as well. VW group also includes Audi and Porsche.

Tesla is over valued right now but I wouldn't short it just yet.

I don't why people think they're going to make money buying stocks. You're competing against Firms who hire computer scientists and math wizards.
They hire those guys in vegas too but gambling is still gambling which means you can still lose

Buying/selling stock is essentially gambling. How many rich investors use those math wizard/computer geniuses to make their decisions just to still end up broke? A lot. It happens. You hear about it all the time. Because its a gamble

On the other hand you could have been a junkie looking to score some meth online in 2009 when bitcoins were only 50 cents per coin and ended up rich. I know because i remember when they were.

A gamble that has no real house bets. That increases in value at almost 10% per year over the past century.

Here is some info my father put 1200 per year from the day I was born. At age 18 worth around $60000.

The real important lesson is that unlike previous generations we are going to live long enough to have no money left and there will be no social security.

Money in the bank becomes less valuable at a rate of at least 2% per year.

Yeah, you're right. Im going to buy some bonds on my next re-up of cash into my account. Looking for a cheap mutual fund but they all seem to be 3k to 10k so thats why i went with stocks/etfs for starters. You're right about chipolte and vw....esp for the long term.

People are paying people like myself for the Kodi hookup....I install it on a firestick and give them whatever they want...sports, live tv, porn etc...just because someone doesn't want to spend the time to set it up doesn't mean they can't find people and spots to do it for them....plus kodi is free...no subscriptions to anything unless you want to integrate shyt...
I stay trolling the ppl in the FB groups selling pre loaded fire sticks :lolbron:
I tell ppl to just buy the fire sticks and go on YouTube and follow instructions,tell them they can do it themselves,I get blocked shortly there after from the guys ad post :mjlol:

How much does a single stock cost?
Not sure if anyone answered yet but the price of a stock varies. I'm no expert but it correlates with the stock market such as the Dow Jones. When a corporation reports an increase in it's sales, revenue, resources, capital etc it's stock rises in price.

And for the reverse the price of the stock goes down.

Good sh OP. Make sure to take investing in strides, you don't wanna get addicted to it and lose all your money. I know people who've lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in the stock market.

I work at an investment firm, I understand the joys breh


Good luck breh
:salute:
You ain't gonna give out no stock tips or nothing? :dame:

I remember @DrX talking about people like that: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/dudes-that-hoard-information-on-here-deserve-death.425227/

What piss me off the most about this site is ppl that are doing well but instead of dropping knowledge that other bros can use to empower themselves, they keep it all for themselves. U got nikkas on here making 6 figures, fukking bad bytches, got master degrees, phds n shyt, good careers....and instead of dropping game, and making very intelligent threads about their experiences and career field, they just come on here and pretake in fukkery and post ignorant shyt....then log off and go back to their loft apartment....well fukk u....how about that

Well, I've been reading Kiplinger/Black Enterprise/Money/Fortune magazine for years now. I'm still no expert but I just NEEDED to start because I was a little scared about it all.....long story short

1) Go to vanguard.com
2) Open an account with a minimum of 1000
3) Buy and Sell.....:manny:

You can also use T Rowe Price and Ameritrade.....i think they offer no minimums and free trades but read the fine print because nothing is truly free. Vanguard trades are $7 I think.....
Going to do this soon.
Just bought some Nvidia stock at 47.14 a share....stock is going up and up up brehs :banderas: Of course this is the stock market so ANYTHING could happen but its up 130% over the last year.
Can't be shocked at this. Does Steam have stock?

Cool man! I want my brehs to come up is the intent behind this posting. Some guys here are doing very well (financially) and almost never discuss ways to get rich. People say I'm a c00n for dating (not even marrying) a white girl but I want to see my brehs come up so fukk all you haters

Valve (steams parent company) appears to be a private company....that may change.....:sas2:
