strider Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 1. wtf do you do at uni @Jimmy 2. not sure if i mentioned this before but bitcoin keeps rising to stupid amount, just hit 1500 AUD per BTC. They were trading at ~150 2-3 years ago. It is being likened to PayPal, where people were slightly hesitant at first but now you're silly if you don't use it. Wait till it drops then dump a spare $2k or so into it. You never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesla Posted January 6, 2017 Report Share Posted January 6, 2017 Should have cashed out yesterday lol. Classic Chinese, creating bubbles and then bursting them. I swear it's related to their love of gambling, they probably see creating bubbles and then trying to pick the timing to get out as a form of gambling, and it pretty much is.

I actually held a nice parcel of SAS shares. I bought them for 2c, sold for 7c, they were like 26c not long ago. So I missed a fucking 13 bagger. They'll probs be something retarded like $5 per share before long, provided their spaceship doesn't explode, but I'm way too salty to get back on.

But of course being an absolute beginner, I need to start somewhere Ultimately I'd recommend a few things; reading articles reading books buying a few shares study and start considering property make sure you're up to date with the financial news (& how it might affect your investments) I guess back before I had a family and had all my money sucked into the vortex, a few things I learnt was: 1. shares never go up just because you bought them 2. Find out about a company BEFORE you buy, not after 3. If you have knowledge that gives you an edge (like you understand a particular market or industry well) use it 4. Debt is a good friend but a bad enemy, so gearing can be a good move but you need to be able to manage it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apartments can date quickly, so capital growth can be a problem. Vacant land has no income so you are relying on capital growth alone. Alwsys think about re-sale when you buy. Good luck.

It is essentially a proxy for investing in Ripple Inc. Other than this one I would be stearing clear of nearly all cryptos Edited December 14, 2017 by malloy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
