ex24.com iPod Promotion (Part 1a)
 Print
|
In a previous post, I talked about giving that ex24.com iPod Shuffle promotion a try. I missed out on the previous promo of $100, 1 trade, and run away with a free iPod; so I had to go with the $500, 1 trade, and lots of waiting. I sold my single share of AAPL, netting 91 cents after the 80 cent purchase commission, and I received a response from them about my iPod: 4 weeks. When I get it, I’ll take a picture of my spoils and wait for about 5 months (or 6 months plus April 10th).

It is interesting to me that an individual willing to deposit $500 for six months would pass up a opportunity to participate in the stock market at the same time. I am 65, the architect, financial backer and founder of ex24. Actually, I have had a very sucessful business career in technology and finance. I have earned over $100 million in my lifetime, mostly by working long hours and providing high quality technology products to my customers.
There are very few ways to invest one’s saved capital. Equity investing and real eatate are the two that come to mind. ex24 is a good place to learn how to invest in equities without risking substantial capital. Not taking advantage of that opportunity is unfortunate, as an individual could learn the ropes of individual investing and hopefullly be able to profit from that knowledge over their long term future. If “Private Retirement Accounts” ever become law such knowledge will be essential.
So, I would challange the author of the post I am responding to, to go beyond the concept of the easy buck and test your skill by doing some fundamantal research on the markets while that iPod is plugged in your ear. ex24 has been created for people just like you.

considering the return is an ipod worth a hundred bucks for a $500 investment, that the author can’t lose now, that’s a good 20% return.. that’s not too shabby don’t you think?
