Stocks & Profits!

How much money have you made off the stock exchange?

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Because it appears the Blackgaard business wasn't exactly prospering on the Odyssey market. ;)

And yet The Webster Development Firm has thrived! :shame:

Though we have no hard evidence that The Webster Development Firm was ever really controlled by Blackgaard, did we? :anxious:

You wouldn't want to go to Italy to buy the shoes, would you? ;) I wouldn't. :noway:

It makes sense for them to have branches where you can buy shoesand other stuff in America.

Except that the person in charge doesn't mess with the stock market, it's randomly generated. (At least that's what they tell us. ;) )

stay on WDF, Bigbird. It's going up. I'm staying away from Dolly.

Like I said, CoT, what would any self-respecting American use one for! :insane: A doorstop would be a fitting usage of such material. :yes:

The stocks are generally changed automatically by the system thing. Since so many stocks have gone off the market, I'm sure that Shadowpaw did use his admin power to manually change stuff, but generally he doesn't, I believe. :)

Heh, unless you had the ability to short a stock, I don't see how you're making any money. Especially since they've been recently dropping slightly. :-k

I'm not makin money on the stock market now... but I'm not losing any either, like some other people (have). \:D/

I wish there was a short option on there... it would certainly make things interesting... :-k especially if one had it heavily leveraged. The risks... and the potential profit... boy, that would be interesting. :yes:
