All I can say is Don't trust a financial planner!!

For the last 14yrs I've had the same financial planner..basically I put it so I can lower my tax bracket. For all the money I put in....it's basically stated the same. The other day I got one of my Investments back and lost $400.00, I pulled out all my documents showed my dad...and he said "Get the hell out of there!!!"

He makes a ton and is retired, so I figured I'll head to the bank pull all my investments and put them into a TD Trust money marketing fund that has risen steadily.....????????/

Google is always a good one as stated up above. ......



Hold the phone!!!
Forget what me and others are saying along the lines of >"yayyy google". Today's news is Google just took a good wholloping... lost 10%. They didn't do nearly as good as they hoped in profits.


That's why it's the perfect time to get Google! They are going back up. Last year they only paid, let's say $1 million in taxes but now this year they got hit with, let's say $4 million. So investors laid back a bit.. it's not a big deal. We bought a bunch of Google a few months ago at $320 a share and it's just been going up everyday. Since they went public with stock, it's gone up 400% and it'll keep climbing.

I have a couple grand in a Money Market also, but it only gains 4%. If you know what your doing with stocks, you can make a a$$load of cash. I agree, dont go with the bluechips if you want to make allot in a short period of time. Another good stock right now is Menards and Home Depot. They will be selling their most within the next couple months because of the weather getting better and allot of people will be doing home improvements and their stocks should reflect it.

Did you check Google today lol!
Anyways, for tiki's assignment I don't think the time frame fits with his assignment if Google makes a dramatic rebound.

Just saying that it might be a good thing that Google is plunging cause it's going to go back up in a week or so. I would think that's a decent investment because it's also pretty safe till next quarter earnings are announced, then it skyrockets or dives a bit again.

google also costs 400+ a share... we only get so much money and that's a bit stiff. plus it's been said that google is over priced big time by hundreds of dollars. Apple was good if you sold it like 4 days after the new chip was announced now it's plunging down. Fluor is VERY good. Checking BRI now
