  • I just TRIED to continue the previous rules, I missed a few but got 90% or so right not counting the 1/3 off on the time frame.
    Don't worry about what you can't change.
    Do the best you can with what you have.
    Be honest, even if it hurts.

      • without starting a new game, it's not possible to change the rules in the middle of the game.

        win the game, you can set the rules

        • So how many of you $choo $$$$choo cowhide collectors are holding BRK.A in your real portfolio? lol

          Just sitting here watching Fox Business trying to decide on a scottrade account. Thinking either MO, KO or MSFT?

          I wish I knew enough about all this to figure out how Coke is worth a fraction of Priceline? Does not compute with me.

            Coke is worth approximately 3x as much as Priceline.

            Most people I talk to have nothing but good things to say about you, but you sure come across as a condescending prick. Do you have an inferiority complex you've attempted to overcome through overachievement? Or were you fondled as a child?

            You and slow99 should date. You both have passive aggressiveness down pat.

                Every company has a different number of shares outstanding. Share price is only one component ... share price * shares outstanding = market value.

                  • Guess it is time to make a different strategy! Stopped in to Scottrade and set up an account. Hope it goes better than my virtual game has been.

                        Yep setup mine thru fidelity last week. Used them since most my info was already there with my 401k. I deposited a little chunk of cash and have X amount being put in on the first of the month as a auto withdrawl. This looks promising to keep the wifes hands off of my Choo Choo money.

                        • Or a good way to turn $$$choo $$$choo into a $Lionel set.


                          We set up the account today but I think before I make my first buy. I will wait to see what happens at the Olympics. Sounds crazy but I know that could trigger a big down turn so why risk it just for a couple of weeks. Not sure what I am going to buy but I am not buying the same companies I hold in the virtual game!! lol Probably going to end up buying something that has been around forever. Something safe...if that is possible!

                                Early in the day there was only one person, up for the day and it was like 0.35%. Then after 11am or so the markets came up.
