Any suggestions for investments?

That's how it is with investing.  It's always easier to see this sort of thing in retrospect.  I'm still kicking myself for not buying Google's stock when it went IPO at $80.  It's only gone up by a factor of ten since then.  My reaction at the time was obviously way off, "Seems overpriced."  Oops. 

I actually would have bought in but my reaction at the time was "Fuck me, I'm a highschool student with no money"

If you are risk averse why don't you leave your coins in one of the many bitcoin bonds: ukyo.loan, graet.loan, xbond, etc.

They are about as safe as you can get (safer than coinlenders).

sorry, where is information on these? are these on bitfunder?
links please.... ty


[edit] ..... found great.loan and ukyo.loan. where is xbond?

Xbond is on https://www.havelockinvestments.com

It's great because it is exchangeable for pre-IPO shares. That's why it's a little more expensive than the other bonds.

You had better instincts than I did then, at least.  Oh well, I managed to at least buy a few shares of Tesla back when it was $30 earlier this year, so at least I'm not calling them all wrong.  I'd have bought way more than three shares had I known that it was go up by a factor of five in less than a year.  It seemed like a good investment, but I didn't know it was THAT good an investment.

You bought 3 shares of a $30 stock?

You are getting assraped on broker commissions.

Alas, you're quite right about this.  Thankfully, it went up enough that as long as it doesn't plummet before I end up selling, it'll more than make up for the ridiculous commissions.

What's your point?
The fact is that InactiveMining cheerleaders don't put money where their mouths are.
The truth is that they just hope to get out before the others when bad things happen.

Biggest eye roll ever

bASIC Mining since this seems like your first investment.

I'm fairly experienced in the traditional investing world, but not as much with bitcoin investments.  It'll be my first outside of Coinlenders, yes.
