  • Sion's How To Invest Thread [Everything you need to invest properly and much more...]

    I don't see me either! lol

    I made some trades today (not the ones I initially wanted to do because they failed due to "volume issues") but I can't see myself in the rankings.

    It says I'm part of the game..... IDK @Sion....am I?

    Is Valentinez in, I don't see him


    Yeah he's in the game, his name is The 60 Billion Dollar Man. He's tied for 5th place with Gentman. He's got some very good picks too. Some of these are stocks a younger me would have invested in. Now lets see if it does my type of results LOLOL. Going by the companies he's picked so far, he should be able to rise thru the ranks rather quickly (possibly to 2nd or even 1st should his companies go to par price).


    Nippon - Japanese co., very cheap, strong earnings growth, well capitalized, 4x p/e, 0.7x book value, 3.4% dividend yield. At the price he's paying he's likely to see double digit returns on equity & likely double digit returns on his money. Not bad not bad at all.

    ING Groep - good looking out on this one, selling for less than half of book value, has made a ton of money since the Great Recession, has doubled size in 5 years, good book value growth, decent ROE, 6x p/e, NO short term debt (yes you read that right). Large cash balances, good mgmt. Might be sensitive to a tough economic environment but at the price he paid he doesn't have to worry about that.

    Cobra - looks very interesting, I like how he took the Ben Graham route & bought this one ridiculously cheap. These guys from my research are a technology company specializing in developing technology for LED lighting (for traffic lights), jumpstarters, GPS, radars and much more. The numbers ? Consistent profits, 0.5x book value (it's actually selling for less than it's working capital), also selling at a steep discount to sales/revenue, well capitalized. This would pass Benjamin Graham's criteria for "Net Nets" as he calls it. I like Cobra b/c it has the ultimate margin of safety. As cheap as it is, it could be acquired.

    If I were Valentinez tho, I'd just reverse the allocation of ING with Nippon... I'd have 200k in ING & the 100k in Nippon but perhaps he's got a plan. Something tells me he's got a lot more companies on his list than he's letting on. I like that tho, never show your hand first. Clever.

  • if you could.....would you take over the world

    As dictator of Earth:

    1. the nation would be rich/wealthy & obviously I'd have long coin like Marcus Crassus
    2. higher taxes on the rich
    3. only 2 political parties (aka I'd adopt America's political structure)
    4. huge investment in technology especially energy, space exploration (c/s @RodrigueZz) & weapon defense (just in case)
    5. equal rights for men & women - NO MORE B/S MARRIAGE LAWS/NIGGAS LOSING HALF
    6. huge investment towards stem cell research (a huge initiative in my campaign)
    7. marijuana would be legalized
    8. create an island in between Brazil & Africa (no Atlantis) to be my HQ and a place of great technological development & medical advancement - along with a giant Mothership to aid me on my space travels
    9. the way of the Jedi would be a legit religion & prolly the main religion (but the Dark side wouldn't be a bad thing or no shit like that)
    10. Abella Anderson, Franceska Jaimes & Kristina Rose would be my wives

    On the real tho I'd prolly put a puppet out front & control the game from behind the scenes like my nigga Tywin Lannister.

  • What is the best album to come out of the West Coast since 1993?..

    Even tho it came out a year earlier - The Chronic IMO is the most influential record ever to come out of the west coast. That album alone, mapped out a whole sound for a region got dayum.....

    For me personally, I gotta go with Pac. I love 2Pac fam....

  • Men - Why are Ya'll so F*cking Stubborn about Doctors and Medication??

    Didn't read but a lot of the time, the shit they give you can make you worse than you were before. There's a documentary (I forget the name) where they go into prescription drugs & how many of the most common ones have additives to make you addicted to them. Personally I try my very best to stay away from that bullshit. You'd be surprised at how much natural remedies & things like cocoa butter, shea butter, castor oil, eucalyptus, castile soap & more can go.
