jellysundae Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 I sold my TAG stocks at 78. Made over a million, no complaints there. But it turns out TAG thinks it's Buzz Lightyear... TAG(profile) 178 183 +5 1,000 10,000 183,000 +1,730.00% Will it EVER stop climbing In situations like this it's REALLY hard to be content with the big whack of profit you already made, when you could have made a MASSIVE one if you'd held out and sold NOW. No wonder people who make their RL living playing the stock market drop dead from heart attacks a lot... Quote
Duma Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Yeah, I noticed it too, I was temped (again) to sell all or part of the 1k stocks I still have but didn't want to mess up the round numbers, so I kept them. Quote

Rayd1978 Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Heck, I sold back when they hit 30. Buy at 15 (or 10 when I'm able), sell at 30, double my money. Seems a solid system.... until things like this happen. Quote

Oh Ray, we'll have to train you out of this sell at 30 nonsense... *rolls up sleeves and prepares to do some yellin'* TAG(profile) 178 188 +10 1,000 10,000 188,000 +1,780.00% Part of me is ITCHING to sell my last 1000, but another part is equally determined not to it would seem.

Kute Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 selling at 30? Oh nononnooo. Please hold until 60 *cries* Also this is hilarious... TAG seems broken! Quote

Rayd1978 Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 How often do stocks even get to 60? Most seem to hover around 20. Quote
Duma Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 They go up there! I was like you at first but now I wait for 60 too, once they start climbing that is. 60 isn't rare, above 60 is though, so yeah TAG just teased us big time. Quote
jellysundae Posted July 24, 2018 Author Posted July 24, 2018 I was wondering if it was going to hit 200 TAG(profile) 199 184 -15 1,000 10,000 184,000 +1,740.00% Seems it's definitely thinking about it ! WAIT, having checked the board it peaked at 205. 8 hours ago, Rayd1978 said: How often do stocks even get to 60? Most seem to hover around 20. Some do seem to never do much, lol. HELT was one of those. First stock I ever bought so I remember wishing I'd not bothered as it then dropped below 15 and never got above even that for at least a year. But it did some steep climbing earlier this year and finally paid off. Stocks aren't something for the impatient, that's for sure, lol. Though having said that, they definitely can teach patience, so... Quote
Duma Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 kids teach adults to be patient too lol. So start with stocks before you start with kids? midnight_spell360 and Mouseykins 2 Quote

Well, they're both an equally long-term investment. Though not too many people manage to sell their kids off for a profit in 18 years time. Mouseykins, Duma, midnight_spell360 and 1 other 4 Quote

Yeah, but some times I wonder if setting up our marriages is kind of "selling" us "off" for profit? But without my parents help or input, I could make a big mistake and I respect that my religion allows me to seek their "help"/advice and stands by my right to make the ultimate decision/choice on who I marry. jellysundae 1 Quote

That's quite a weighty question, isn't it. I have to admit that I don't approve of arranged marriages, because in past eras (medieval times and so on) those absolutely were selling a bride for profit, often to old men 3 times their age. In more recent times it's proved to be a really bad idea, too. Prince Charles' wedding to Diana was arranged and look what a disaster that turned out to be... I like your wording here though, it's clear that your family wouldn't force you to marry somebody. From what we've learnt about your mum she has far too much integrity to do something like that which is great. and now look at what TAG's doing, takin' a plummet here. TAG(profile) 199 179 -20 1,000 10,000 179,000 +1,690.00% Quote
Rayd1978 Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 I suppose I can see the logic of an arranged marriage in some cases. Between nobility on olden times it made sense to keep peace between countries or clans. But over all there's just too much that can go wrong. Nielo 1 Quote
jellysundae Posted July 27, 2018 Author Posted July 27, 2018 I'm SO over it with TAG now, I can look at this with impunity. TAG(profile) 216 199 -17 1,000 10,000 199,000 +1,890.00% 216 *coughs* TOTALLY. over. it. Yup, not crying in the corner at all, not me. That 1k of stocks is at least keeping my portfolio in the black, the rest of things are looking a little bit sad at the moment aren't they. Quote
Kute Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 All of my stocks have hardly been moving since TAG decided to claim the throne of my sorrow. I see 1 share is at 50 with a +1 .......please climb.you can do it. jellysundae 1 Quote

I guess TAG is like the vampire of stocks, and it's climbing the way it has by sucking the life out of all the others... Quote
