Huh. I don't really have any cash I can play with at the moment, but I'm definitely going to bookmark this. It seems like something that'll be more than worth looking into. Is there a way to try the game or something similar without creating an account?
In case anyone follows links to this thread and is interested in simulated trading, this is an option. It's market delayed, but works pretty much like a brokerage account. http://www.investopedia.com/simulator/ You have to make an account with an email, but no money is involved. It tries to be educational - teaches you how different stop/limit/market trades work, etc. Doesn't reach what is and isn't stupid though. It's possible to set up private groups too.Is there a way to try the game or something similar without creating an account?
Yeah, again - I don't use this to play with cash. I tucked my retirement into TDAmeritrade in part because this allows me to play with fake money. Regardless of whatever else you've got going on with your money, starting a retirement fund is the best move you can make right now.
Oh yes. Absolutely. When a little bit now can make a big difference down the road, a lot a bit now can make a world of difference.Regardless of whatever else you've got going on with your money, starting a retirement fund is the best move you can make right now.
