Default Re: Your Best Investment Ever

When I was 9-11 I had a paper route that my parents made me save 50% of my income from. My dad got a new job and we moved and I abandoned the paper route but I had about $750 saved up that I invested into my dad's new company. Stock surged with the internet bubble and I cashed out about $7500 from my initial investment of $750. (Bought the stock at $20, sold at around $220). I think I was 14 or 15 when I got all my money and I proceeded to buy a car with it.

The stock is now below $10. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
