I have lost my mind

Feb 02, 2008 18:51

So Thursday night I check out some books on investing. Yesterday (Friday), I'm hooked on reading them. Just devouring these books. Then, last night all night I dream about buying and selling stocks and bonds, and wake up mentally reviewing what I've learned about dividends.

1) This is insanity
2) As I suspected, the stock market is functionally equivalent to Pokemon/D&D/Heroclix, just with a different set of mechanics to learn.
3) I'm not dumb enough to dump a bunch of money into it with no experience, so don't freak out. The plan is, when I'm ready, I'll put a /little/ bit of money in and play with it awhile to see how it goes. And then /maybe/ later do more, depending.
