My situation:
-After subtracting money I'll need for bills and routine living, I have about $40,000 that I can do whatever I want with.
-I'm a young 23 year old with no investing experience.
-I am a successful semi-pro poker player, so I do have a good logical mind.
-I would be willing to risk and possibly lose about $5000 in the early going, as long as I feel like I'm getting better at investing while doing it.
-I don't want any super long term investments. I'd like to have access to my money.
-If I truly feel as if I can be a successful investor, then I'd definitely be willing to put in the time and effort in order to learn.
So where to begin?
