The FTSE

It's got a lot of people interested in investing/trading, which is good. Always better to be in control of your own money rather than leaving it in a bank where it loses value(inflation).

Yes agreed. Hate having cash just in the bank.
 
If one hypothetically had 10 grand sitting in a current account doing nothing, what would one do with it?

And just to preempt, not hookers and cocaine.
 
The Greatest Trades In Wall Street History Jesse Livermore shorted the 1929 market crash and made $100 million. Paul Tudor Jones made an estimated $100 million when he predicted Black Monday in 1987 and shorted the stock market. Andy Krieger shorted the Kiwi in the late 80s and made $300 million.

Thought Soros would be there if you are counting foreign exhange markets, both in terms of profit and impact. Also had one of the biggest losses too, from memory I think he tried the same thing with the French Franc after but Germany backed them.

Black Wednesday was shortly before the Leeds v Stuttgart champions league games leading to the joke "what's the differentce between the bank of england and stuttgart?"

stick it in a long term growth share for ten years that will double at least. Rolls Royce is my tip.

Couple trading apps let you live trade using fake money, kind of like a trial. So have a go on that to get a feel. Have a flutter on some penny stocks too whilst you're at it.


Or get down the Casino and stick it on black.
 
Is it a good time to ask how many on here have snorted cocaine from a hookers behind? Maybe for a later in the weekend thread.
