Re: 20, in school, $1500
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but there are some companies that make transactions of stock on their own companies.

Re: 20, in school, $1500
I've been trading and/or investing for a long time, and the current stock market is pretty volatile -- you won't be seeing the same kind of gains that your friend made for a while. I'm guessing that he started before last year, when a ton of gains were made. It wasn't hard at the time, but right now it's a low of one step forward, two steps back. Don't bet on the 90%+ gains or whatever that were happening last year.

Re: 20, in school, $1500
This might seem like small change for you high rollers, but what would you recommend doing with about $1500 as a college student (not tuition money, it's extra).

[ QUOTE ]
Poker on the other hand.... With 1,500 dollars, lots of skill and understanding of the game, about a thousand hours of actual table play, you could probably start playin $3-$6 at you local cardroom. If your good youll make about $6 an hour grinding it out,if you play online 2 tables at once maybe just under $12. Its not easy and there are many ups and downs. you could lose as much as $600 or more in one session with bad cards and some bad plays. If your willing to put in the time pokers a good choice, plus you could quickly build a nice bankroll and start playin some $5-10 or hirer and make some real money. But remeber the skill level increases as the limit increases. [/ QUOTE ] Is this guy smoking crack? Anybody who is reading here and seriously applies themselves can be up to the mid limits in cardrooms in 1000 hours. 3/6 in a cardroom after 1000 hours of play is like playing slots, except you don't get a jackpot. the rake is too high. |

Re: 20, in school, $1500
You can make that much off bonuses? What places are good for bonus whoring? I have one account with PP now and that's it. I play 1/2 and 2/4 and some PL25 and show a profit usually.

Go to Ibiza
Toby:
Save the money until you graduate from college then go to Spain or Greece and party on the beach for a month or two with the European crowd. You'll have stories that will last a lifetime and most grads these days from good schools pull down $40K+ to start - so $1500 is chump change in the long run. |
