Hey everyone,

I gave my investment money to a friend with a promise he would double or triple it. He had just got his brokering license and for some reason I thought it would be a strong choice because he was so confident. I ended up $1500 light in the pocket and I figured if I want to lose that kind of money I can do it myself. At least I learnt a valuable lesson about not trusting anyone with your hard earned money. Here to learn and make some moolah.

Welcome aboard, you have just learnt a priceless lesson for the fraction of the cost for which many others have paid to learn it!

Id be sus
To lose the total $1500 what ever it was he invested in (I'm Presuming stock) would have had to have been delisted.
Id look into it a little more.

Hello Everyone

I've been lurking for a few months without posting anything. I thought it was time I said hello. I'm in my mid 20s, very new to investing. I'm building up my savings at the moment, not looking to start investing till some time next year. This will provide me with ample time to come up with an initial plan for investing as currently I don't have one.

Hi everyone!

Long time reader/lurker, thought it was about time I created an account and contribute where I can. However, I've only recently started investing in the market and am still learning a lot. Looking forward to discussions ahead!
