Hows about a new fun game in investing??

We each have 100,000 to invest.
You must invest the entire 100,000 in one place.
I put mine into gold. You can put yours anywhere you want. Such as AAPLstock.or a savings account. Lets see who makes out it the next 6 months.

tsaw: 11-6-10 - 100k invested in gold =
100,000 / 1397.30(price per ounce) =71.57 oz of gold.








 
1197 shares of CAT @ 83.54

When I win what do I get?

Oh yea wait I figured out it will be a virtual prize!:w00t2:

After thinking about it I should have picked Chesapeake Energy CHK $22.27

I would think any oil or energy stock would be good going into winter .
 
I was going to pick copper, but it seems to be (in part) growth driven and I don't think we're gonna see much growth in the next 6 months.
 
Interesting idea. You may come out with the most in the end. If stocks crash and gold and silver crash.:clap:


May be worthless if the Treasury keeps up with their "QE" 600 billion and another 600 billion. Pretty soon the paper will cost more than the money that's printed on it!

Sucks getting old. . . use to know everything. (or thought I did):whistling:

100k in real estate Costs less to buy a "whole" house right now than to buy just the pieces (materials). Only problem is the housing slide isn't over yet
 
OK, I'm in but I'll need a couple of days to count my $100,000. It's all in $1 bills and I want to hold and cuddle it for a while before I piss it all away. :yum:
 
I'm going with staple products and buying Proctor & Gamble. Hoping to at least end with my $100K.

PG $64.73, 1545 shares.
 
GE 16.22 -3,048.27 -3.05%
CAT 83.97 +514.71 +0.51%
BP 42.03 -4,084.89 -4.08%
PG 64.05 -1,050.60 -1.05%

Gold 1354.10 -3091.82 -3.09%
Silver 27.35 +2204.78 +2.20%
 
OK, since it's someone else's $100K, I'm going to do what I would never do in real life.

I'm going to put in it all in Fanny Mae at $0.35 per share. That's 285,714 shares at $0.35 per share. That's FNMA.OB for those that are interested.

Oh man, I'm such a sucker. :hammer::hammer::hammer:

To sum up:
DaveNay ahead $2204.78
Ironman ahead $514.

So far everyone else lost money.
Except Pirategirl.. she is even.:yum::yum:
 
And THAT, my friends, is why I don't day trade. Yet.

Still, I'm glad tsaw's gold predictions are not coming to fruition (no offense, tom).
