Seriously, before finding this thread i would have never actually opened up a brokerage account and started investing. Sure, i would have thought about it, but never actually done it because i was too scared of what i didnt know!! You have knack for explaining things in simple terms that are easy to grasp understand. THANKS to you and everyone else who helped make this thread what it is!!


Thanks!


I can explain simple -- because I AM simple!


It's taken me years to get a full (okay maybe half) an understanding for how this stuff works... and therefore it makes it pretty easy to "condense" -- especially if we keep it to "investing 102" style. Because - it really is "just that easy".

Brokers - and people like that... they want you to be fully dependent on them! They make it SOUND complicated so that you think they add value... thus pay them.

My true honest to god opinion of that is - what a load of crap!


If you can brush your teeth - you can pick good companies to invest in.
