So…when *are* you supposed to sell your stocks? I have a few I bought 7-8 years ago and have lost about 99.5% of their value. Its either I buy one and 6 months later its up 15% or its 3 years later and down 30%, never having gotten close to when I bought it. I have this stock I bought 8 years ago. I paid $850 for it, dropped to $50, recovered and right now I have a total gain of $9. Another I bought 9 years ago for $161, its worth 36 cents now.

stock investing is a bad idea for some people. and a good idea for others.if you lose money in stocks or even lose some in mutual funds and can’t sleep well that night after that happens then it’s a waste of time for you.whats right for you doesn’t always mean right thing to do for others.why banks have account managers to talk to you.

You can indeed make a lot of money from stocks, and it’s useful to own them if you have some investing knowledge or background in business. The stock market isn’t some game you sign up for where they best players come and camp you all day, rather it is a platform for buying and selling stocks in companies you believe in. Stocks are basically ownership in companies, so saying you shouldn’t have faith in any companies in the world is ridiculous. Some companies will fail, and some will make a killing, but be sure you pick stocks from companies you think will be successful and you can make good returns.

I wish I had read this in 2010.I wouldn’t have lost more then 2 million rupees in stocks. I will never trade in stocks and I recommend to everyone same. All economic data and breaking news doesn’t make any sense. You may loose one day and on 2 and third you make profit. Again you loose at the end, you would be looser. Please dont’ loose your hard earned money in stock market. It is all a scam.

I’m not going to debate the content of this article because not only is it overly opinionated and condescending, a lot of it is just flat out wrong. What I will say though is that this is just very poor quality writing. Regardless of what the author believes, they present it in a way that cannot be taken seriously. The entire article sounds like it was written by an angry teen who doesnt want anybody to trade stocks because they were burned by their own trading decisions. Your free to write your own opinions, just don’t forget that they are just your opinions, not fact, and probably not worth anyone’s time.

He’s probably already happier than you. Or are money and happiness identical to you?

If the Stock Market was such a wonderful way of generating money, the ultra rich would be there in a flash, but they are not.

So-called investments are little more than scams, since ‘investors’ use other people’s money and thus are immune from profit taking or collapse.
The Stock Market is little more than a form of gambling, and we all know that the odds are stacked against you at any gambling house.
