[racrguy]

lol......thank god this is only a game.

I was up 16% early this morning.....then got my rear ran over by a steam roller!


Net Worth $6,070.23
Overall Gains -$3,929.77
Overall Returns -39.30%
Today's Gains -31.11%

The opposite happened to me. I was getting HAMMERED this morning and my shit ended up coming around late in the day. I'm still 17th though. FML.

Fuck me runnin'. Does the phrase "don't quit your day job" mean anything?

You'd have to be crazy to do this for a living.

Hope everyone is having fun and, more importantly, learning.

I totally agree that one would have to be crazy to do this for a living. It is fun. Even boarder line addictive. But I am learning. Learning to stay the heck out of the market!!! Guess it would not be bad if you are looking long term and going with well know companies. But since it is a game, I keep swinging for the fences......

Lol....another day...off another cliff!! Basically the story of a lot of people in real life. Trying extra hard to get caught up and get further behind in doing so. I think I will stick to a savings account. Can't beat inflation with it. But at least I can keep my original investment!! lol

Net Worth $4,324.13

I can't figure it out, a company quadruples it's profit from a year ago, beats the estimates and the next day the stock goes down 6%, WTF. It might be related the the whole mkt being down today. I don't know shit tho.

[War Machine]

I haven't traded since I started. I'd rather take 10k and bet it on black at the casino. I have no idea what the hell Im doing

I stayed in top 3 since this started with some core companies, but took a stumble today to #11. Oh well I'm staying the course

That's what it is all about for me. Heck if I wanted to watch 3-4 stocks I would just do that on paper. I wanted to see if I could make some moves and make it work out. It hasn't but.... its just a game.

2nd place in the house!

I did the opposite today, went from somewhere around 20th to 5th so far, but that can change at any minute.

Edit: aaaaaaand back to 14th with the crash at the end.

I just feel really bad for the people that were "in" my stock when I bought it for $10. Now it is less than $6.00. Those people might not be sober for a few more days.
