Final thoughts for 2005
Final thoughts for year 2005
A while back I had posted a link to this site on another blog site. I will not get into which site it was. I am just using them as an illustration to prove a point. They discontinued my account because they believed that I was trying to sell a product. I am not and was not selling anything, per se, but I was and do post advertisement banners at the top of my posts. Yes, I am trying to make money at this thing using Google’s “adsense” service. I haven’t made any cash from it yet, as I don’t think that I have been blessed with any visitors that have found any of the ads hanging above this site interesting enough to click on and get involved with. If you do respond in that manner write me and let me know about what you think of the links that the banner ads lead you to. It might be possible for us to tailor the ad content of this site!
If I were selling a “method book” to you, and trust me I am not, it would probably last only a few pages - like less than ten, more of a religious tract than an investment tome. What I have been doing with my involvement with “the virtual millionaire” project in connection with the Virtual Stock Exchange, could be summarized into this:
What I would actually like to do first is to actually make some real money (though it really was kind of fun to watch one million imaginary dollars balloon up to its current level of 7.2 million) trading stocks perhaps to the point of leaving my currently screwed up life of drifting from one electronic job to another to making trading the stock market for a living.
If I could make that happen, then yes, you would begin to start hearing about a brand new book detailing the process of my adventures and how you could apply the methods of my success to your life.
I have shared email with people who are doing something like this. They all tell me it might be possible, BUT caution should be the watchword, as things may not turn out exactly you think they might.
It is here that I need to end for now.
Have a happy holiday season. I am not really a Christian, but I do hope that whatever your faith or disposition is you do find some joy and reason to hold onto hope.
By that statement I would not pretend to know what is going on in your life. I am not implying that you are a loser or that you are losing hope. I just want to say that some people have not had too nice of a time dealing with the day to day necessities that you and I take for granted on a regular basis.
One of the great things about this season is that it often brings out the ability of people to see their peers from their perspective (their “shoes”) and attempt to respond in kind.
In plain English, if you know of a neighbor who needs some help, give a little thought as to how best to respond.
Here are some links to some sites that might help:
The American Red Cross - www.redcross.org
copy this and paste it into your window. Blogger doesn't trust me with html code!
The Salvation Army –
Your Neighborhood food bank
Until next year: PEACE!

What I have been doing with my involvement with “the virtual millionaire” project in connection with the Virtual Stock Exchange, could be summarized into this:
- Track stock split companies using Investment House’s free (very important word) email stock split alert service.
- From time to time experiment with “hot tips” from other news services, but don’t expend a lot of your portfolio in them as you may find them crapping out before your eyes. If that is the way it turns out, don't feel bad; that has happened to me many times already.
- Sell about half of your issues when your investments double and try not to hang onto losers for too long either.
