Nifty.

While I'm here, anybody mind giving me some faux financial advice?

My economics class has a stock market game going on (that only a quarter of the kids are playing, because the rest are too cool to do work) that I was confident that I'd "win" by a large margin.

For the most part, I was right. I invested in a few companies, primarily Apple, which I thought would be going up.

I was kicking ass until this son of a bitch (and this guy is an absolute idiot) decided to start playing a month late, and all of a sudden racks up $19,000. How in the hell?



I resorted do doing what I didn't want to do: dumping everything else I had (Google, Priceline, Disney, and Kraft off the top of my head) in favor of Apple which was going up faster than the rest.

Question is, what can I do to beat this douche?

As of right now I have a pending order to sell my 398 AAPL shares since it's slightly declining, which I'll buy back as soon as it starts to pick up a bit.





Evidence of my ass-kicking.
