I got money from business and gaming
Sunday, August 29th, 2010With time on your side, you win when the market is up—but you also win when it goes down.
My company has a 401(k), but I never joined it. I know that it would be a good way to build up retirement money, but I never knew which investments to put my money in, plus I was afraid to make the wrong choices. I’m more a cash kind of guy. But now I’m starting to make more, and I’m thinking of getting married to my girlfriend. I’ve been feeling more like a grownup, I guess, and I was really thinking it was time to invest.
Since it was the beginning of the year; I thought why not the year off right start, and I signed up, and started to contribute the maximum I could, which they told me was $750 a month based on what I made. I put all the money into this one aggressive growth mutual fund that seemed as though it had done really well over the years. The first month, fine, and the second. But then the market dropped, and the fund tumbled way down. I couldn’t believe it. By the time I had added my third payment, my $2,250 was only worth about $ 1,950—I had already lost money. I was somehow seeing my fear come to life. But I decided to stick with it. Two months later, after I put in another $750 for each of those months, I should have had $3,750, more if it was actually earning money, but when I looked at my statement I only had $3,343. I was still losing money. This was when I couldn’t take it anymore, so I went back to the human resources department to withdraw from making any more contributions to the 401(k). I mean, there’s no point in losing money. I thought at least I could wait till the market started to go up and maybe then I would rejoin.
Good thing I got my hobby on playing online casino. I found the site which can offer me the list of the best casino games slots where I can also win money which was an additional income for me. I can have the play and win on the casino games slots, then have the money for an additional earning. With the casino games slots that I found online, I do have my leisure while earning money.
