#stocks are risky but the reward can be great even if you only have a $100-$500. I purchased Netflix at $257 per share. I wish I could remember when but it definitely wasn’t an overnight. It’s currently trading at $363 per share. Just imagine those who purchased it earlier

Now the honest side of it is scared money don’t make no money. Wise words a friend once told me. I was up $54 yesterday but down $9 today. It’s rocky and can be volatile. Investing isn’t for the weak at heart and you sometimes will lose money #investing #stocks #ridethewave
So update on my #investing...I started with individual #stocks but I think I may have done it backwards yeaaaars ago lol. Finally diving into #MutualFunds and #Exchangetradedfunds #ETF. There is a world of information out there. Explore...if you can take the risk.
And I’m not necessarily trying to get rich (lol)- lol nah I’m lying I want to be rich lol. #stocks The goal is to get a better return on my funds than I’d get in a traditional savings account. If I lose $200, I probably would have waste that same money in these bars lol
But check out http://fool.com"> http://fool.com - One oh my favorite sites. Learn, learn, learn some more and take a small plunge.
So quick update...my stocks are going through an up and down whirlwind & nope I’m not a fan lol. I just continually tell myself to think long haul. Stocks aren’t always jumping up- hence diversification is key. #investing #blackwomeninvesting #stocks #notaproffessional

Whew! First time opening up my investment account today just to see how things were looking, wth happened in today’s market https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😩" title="Weary face" aria-label="Emoji: Weary face"> everything down https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Downwards arrow" aria-label="Emoji: Downwards arrow">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Downwards arrow" aria-label="Emoji: Downwards arrow"> #investing #stocks
The beautiful thing of being a follower of http://Fool.com"> http://Fool.com is when the market drops, I try not to panic. I can’t remember who said it on a podcast but he/she was like it’s just the market having a sale https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏾♀️" title="Woman shrugging (medium dark skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman shrugging (medium dark skin tone)">. confident in my picks so hopefully they’ll be on the upward soon
So, just signed up for a TSP Tips app. I’ll try to at least wait 6 months to a year before I give my assessment. I’m a C fund and S fund girl. Will be interesting to move my money even more with interfund transfers. #blackwomeninvesting #tsp #stocks
So just noticed my 9-19-18 tweet mentioned #netflix stock price ($363). I guess it’s been pretty steady but actually trading a few dollars less. I’m still up 40% on my investment though https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏾♀️" title="Woman shrugging (medium dark skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman shrugging (medium dark skin tone)"> #stocks are risky but still rewarding if your picks are right. #blackwomeninvesting https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Downwards arrow" aria-label="Emoji: Downwards arrow">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⬇️" title="Downwards arrow" aria-label="Emoji: Downwards arrow">

Once again, I’m no expert. Just tweeting my experience. This is not financial advice. I pay for advice from experts lol.
Just updating my thread: I made my first interfund #TSP transfer based on the recommendation of the #tsptips app. Definitely looking forward to seeing how this plays out from a personal investment performance (PIP) rate... lowkey excited lol #blackwomeninvesting #fingerscrossed
I bought Eventbrite stocks on a whim, unadvised https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦🏾♀️" title="Woman facepalming (medium dark skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman facepalming (medium dark skin tone)">and I’ve lost 50% of my tiny investment ($146). I bought five shares of Shopify and I’m up 50%....the joys of investing. Some up, down. #blackwomeninvesting #notfinancialadvise #stocks
Speaking of boring stocks on a Friday night. I’ve been disappointed by every stock I bought shortly after IPO except Facebook (sold it though https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤦🏾♀️" title="Woman facepalming (medium dark skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Woman facepalming (medium dark skin tone)">)- Twitter, Eventbrite. I’m trying to think of any others i may have bought but sold cause I simply wasn’t knowledgeable at that time.
I eventually bought Facebook again but I’m still down...not much but I definitely kick myself for not holding on to my Facebook, Walmart, and Chipotle stocks. I’ve learned to not be so anxious to take money out and not put money I need to touch in the immediate future.
Shopify just may be my best buy yet...I wonder if it’s gonna bust though...I purchased a few shares at $172 and it’s last value was $305.20.... #stocks #notaprofessional
Anyway, on another subject- updating this thread- I doubled my money when I bought #shopify a year or so ago--- can& #39;t remember exactly when but then I sold. I& #39;m lowkey kicking myself for selling. I& #39;m debating jumping back in but I don& #39;t know... The above June tweet makes me sad
I bought #shopify for $172...it was trading at $646. I definitely liquidated for other reasons but I truly wish I would have just held those. You really have to ride the market and be committed for at least 3-5 years IMO. #blackwomeninvesting #stocks #notaprofessional
