05/12 - Mental Awareness Friday

[RancidYetti]

Morning all! What's making you happy today?

My wife and I are having our dream house built, and it'll be ready in about a month. Also, my little cousins are getting their pilot license...so I get free tours of the sky!

 

[frogman31680]

Oh. Wow! So exciting and fun! I thought I'd never say that about stock...

Yeah, me either. But you kinda fall into it and it becomes almost like a lifestyle.

I always found the stock market confusing but this makes it a bit easier (and more dangerous as well)

Still waiting on a "weed, simpsons, and megaman" night though.

The trophy is worth forum points.

can you lose money on it?

 

[MrTrentSD]

I'm doing it too and I don't know squat about stocks. Our math teacher tried to teach us in 4th grade, but it didn't really stick. I'm learning as I go.

Buy low, sell high

We've already had Simpsons night

 

[frogman31680]

can you lose money on it?

Well, yeah I guess. If you don't add money to your account, you get the free stock.

If it goes down, technically you lose, but you didn't invest anything to the balance so not really.

I invested $10. I have a chance to lose, but I made it a minimal amount.

Yea but all 3 together would be the best night of all time.

Can it go below $0, where you have to pay them back?

 

[Kerek]

That could easily be your Friday night every week.

Edit: It's probably not that far off already.

No

No, you just lose the stock and you are done. The company would have to go belly up.

Most of the companies I got stock from for free were around the $4 to $8 price range.

I did get a Sprint one so I am looking forward to that merger.

I had the same issue, go into from a different page, not the front page.

On the first page of the app is a link to verify, that seems to be broken,

Go into the settings and then your bank info, and then click the verify link

 

[frogman31680]

And sorry for making this thead about stocks...

I just kinda foudn a love of them
