S&P 500 – SPX
#Apple – AAPL

+logan martel watch a lot of vidz
Jesus, are you trying to make us noobies feel bad for not investing earlier?
That’s why many wants to turn back time so they could do things a little better
Komm susser toot
It’s not over, you can learn or if you don’t wanna learn just invest after the next crash when everyone is telling u not to invest, most people(friends n family) will advice u to invest at the top before a crash and they will be negative about investing at the bottom When u should actually invest. Everyone was negative about it in 2009.
Shadman Sudipto
Exactly. The most basic strategy to investing there is.
Best returns are in bitcoin !
+Mason Calhoun you did rich boy. Lmao according to you and your 3 lambos
+Mason Calhoun ??? kid, no one actually believes you.
+Mason Calhoun besides, even rich people wouldn’t go out and buy a lambo a day after they bought another 1. That is if they PLAN to stay rich and not go broke.
+Mason Calhoun how can money be no objective for someone whos not rich lol?
+Mason Calhoun do you actually feel richer by lying to strangers on the internet?
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. Second best is today.
Pritam Das ..or wouldn’t it be 19 years ago???♀️

CNBC sleeping on dominos pizza! Bottomed around $3 in 2008 currently $290. $1000 would have turned into 97k.
So true. Gold star for you
CNBC actually did catch that one back in March 2018. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/03/01/no-point-1-pizza-chain-dominos-outperformed-amazon-google-and-apple-stocks.html
And Dominos is trash lol

+EverlastGX why

Jorge Gomez lol

Every investor knows buying stocks low id the key. But the hard part is predicting which company will actually be worth a lot more.
+George of i see
+Julian Hill did you ?
Would have never guessed
Download the Acorns App & Qapital App
Tesla Motors is up next
+Pac Man why ?
It’s not too late to invest in Amazon and Google they are still growing fast. Nvidia is a good one too.
AMD is also a good stock.
+Pokiblue etrade or Jordan Belfort I heard is a good stock broker in NYC. ?
wait until cyrptocurrency falls apart, Nvidia is going to take huge fall
Or Xiaomi
Tampatec You realize that this mass inflation is caused by everyone buying in when the prices were low in 2009, so its a ticking time bomb, if everyone cashed out now
But they don’t teach any of this in school, yet we do know that the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
You inherit mitochondria from your mother and not your father
That is a thing at my school
Nah but they did teach me that
x= (-b+-√b²- 4ac)/2a
should’ve payed attention in economics class, that was one of my last classes for senior year
But but…. Y=mx + b
????
Even if i have $1000 in 2009 and invest i would’ve cash out at $1100 lol
How about now ?
Sterling Archer I’m sure he wouldn’t do that now unless he physically had to
+yummy yea
Imagine being richer than the CEO of the company you are investing in.
I am pretty sure if you are richer than the company you are investing in, you can just buy 50% and you would be a partial owner or am I wrong?
PC Gaming uh that’s if there selling 50% of their shares when a company goes public on the stock market they get to choose the amount of shares for sale
+Palmer Martinez one single person is not allowed to own more than 18%(or 20%) of a public company
Yeah, Imagine that.
+designamk1 in iron fist Netflix Danny Rand owns 51%
They missed the best one of them all if you bought $1000 of bitcoin in 2010 it’d be worth $283,412,660 as of December 2017 during its peak. This is the worst one for anyone that ever had bitcoin that early
Most bit coin from 2010 was lost, stolen, or corrupted. That $1000 would just be gone.
+naga sravan questioned by who??
Biggest regret of my life is bitcoin when they were 10$ a pop
+e K if you pay your taxes there are no issues
Only 60% of Americans pay their taxes, the other 40% don’t many issues nor does the IRS make them a priority.
I was too busy playing World of Warcraft in 2009. And I don’t regret not investing in Apple or Amazon. Had a nice youth.
I’m starting to think that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity after the big crash and that this will never be repeated again. This was life changing stuff if you made certain moves. These rates of return were extraordinary.
It will happen again mark my words
Bjorn Schreff 1 year at the earliest. Probably around 3-5 realistically.
+g s i hope so bro.. I hope so
It will happen again and more than once
You’re very wrong my friend. People make millions every day in the stock market. You’re just not paying close enough attention! Make sure you try and spot trends and analyze current events to predict a stocks trajectory, and never put all your eggs in one basket. Good luck!
1999 or 2009. I never sold a shingle share. In fact, I pumped more in when she was crashing. Today…well, life is good.
Cato you my friend are a smart person
Jeff same man when I can though I’m investing real quick bruh, I wish I was older kinda cus I would have been profiting :/
+XBL Merci Buckets or he is just a troll
goodytoosh7 get a online pdf lol
Me too! I started investing back in 1700’s now life doesn’t take rice and cheese as currency anymore…
Ima start investing to pay off my student debts
Did you start yet ?
+The Valiant Investor bruh
haha try bitcoin in 2010 and sell it at the end of 2017 that would be around 800 000 000 million dollars from just 1000 dollars
