theslug Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Decided to pick up a book on investment after my final this Thursday. I've been thinking about investing in stock for a while now but only recently have been taking the thought seriously, anyone here have any book recommendations? Also found out that meter reading position I inquired around two months ago probably won't happen, looks like yet another summer at the supermarket... what fun. Investing is a pretty worthwhile and interesting hobby to get into imo but it can be dangerous especially if you're going for individual stocks and trying to short sell becuase its essentially like gambling. I'd head over to http://www.thesimpledollar.com/ He's reviewed a number of books (not all directly related to finance) and he offers generally good advice on personal finance. If you're looking for a general guide to picking/researching stocks you likely won't find it there but I doubt you'd find a reliable and comprehensive website like that anyways. That being said right now isn't exactly an ideal time seeing as you missed an almost 400 point dip on friday and today the market is up 400 points and likely will continue to rise throughout the week. You're best bet is just to learn and involve yourself as much as possible. Start reading books, watch cnbc, look over financials on yahoo finance. But I would say for you focus on index funds, ETF's, IRA's, and other various long term approaches to investing that work for where you are at in life. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsingham Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Yesterday I discovered that I could make the dog make guitar style yowling noises when I was air guitaring to Walk This Way. He just copies the howling. So I picked him up and air guitared the dog. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe.

Syraxis Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 (edited) My final exam got cancelled by my professor today. Instead we're being graded on our test scores and the amount of work we've completed. I have until friday night to complete everything. It'll be done by tomorrow night. Edited May 11, 2010 by Syraxis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
