So i bought this penny stock, bought like 10,000 shares of it... then a few days later i bought more. Then like a week later I go and check on it and it rose to like .22cents! I flipped out and sold it all hahah... I ended up with the most money in my class
yeah i did that too....only i lost a ton of money...i picked GM not knowing what the project was when he told us to pick. I think there was only one kid in our class who ended the project with a profit...
