QUOTE (Rocky @ Jul 12 2007, 07:52 PM)  Dude i have a Fidelity SEP IRA with my new job, so I'm looking for ways to take advantage of this. The easiest thing for me is to just invest in mutual funds because I can do that without waiting for clearance (i work for a financial fund so any stock trading has to pass compliance first, to make sure im not taking advantage of inside info etc) Within the next month or so I may be hittin you up for suggestions impala ! Unless I just try to gamble it all on VMWARE ! hells yeah man. in your investments, see if it allows you to choose your positions yourself. if so, enter the symbols for them that I listed above or look for the names. heh mine gained $65 just today w00t! FDIVX -> Fidelity Diversified International FDVLX -> Fidelity Value they're pretty much all stock holdings, but that's what we're supposed to do when we're young  . it's basically just a fund that some fidelity stock eggheads maintain.here's the top 10 holdings for FDIVX ROCHE HLDGS GENUSSSCHEINE VODAFONE GROUP PLC TESCO PLC FIAT SPA BAYER AG TOYOTA MOTOR CORP ADR 2 NESTLE SA (REG) VINCI SA BANCO BILBAO VIZ ARGENTARIA SA UNICREDITO ITALIANO SPA ORD and for FDVLX BAXTER INTL INC XEROX CORP TYCO INTL LTD OWENS ILLINOIS INC AT&T INC AVON PRODUCTS INC BRINKS CO NATIONAL-OILWELL VARCO INC FLEXTRONICS INTERNATIONAL LTD STANLEY WORKS QUOTE (rabble @ Jul 12 2007, 09:29 PM) stocks are a load of horsecrack anyway and are basically worthless IMO you're a fuckin idiot |

Got all of mine in FECAX right now. Up 15.8% since I bought it, up $215 today.
Overseas is where it's at, except for China(unless you know when to get out). Just look at the conversion rate of the USD to Euro and USD to GBP. US dollar is just worth less and less after nearly every passing month for the last 5 years. -------------------- Beers that I have had, updated July 5th, 2009: 1,548

Or not, my dad helped me open a Roth IRA when I was 16 when I was working at a movie theater during high school. Add some in every year and it starts to accumulate.

QUOTE (rabble @ Jul 11 2007, 10:28 PM) I'm putting half my monthly income into an ING account. Once I figure out how to set up a company 401K or whatever I'm going to put in the max that they match (hey, its free money!) but I dont like those because I cant do what I want with the money. You should be able to do what you want. My 401k lets me choose the percentage I want in each index that they offer, so you get to choose where everything is allocated. -------------------- LANCE IS PRO-CENSORSHIP!
