Question from us "Young guys" (I still consider myself young. LOL)

If we were to "gamble" on something like Alibaba, or GoPro, etc. Which account would be best to do this in? A Personal Brokerage account or within a ROTH IRA?

I'm guessing a PB account. If it fizzles out it could be counted as a loss. But then again, if it goes to the moon, it wont be taxed in the ROTH, but then its also tied up for another 30 years... heh.

I'm not sure that even a question we can really answer.. But maybe just discuss and we'll have to weigh our own options individually.
