Investing in stocks

[Alexandoy]

Have you tried investing in shares of stocks of companies? In 1994 we had some shares of stocks of a Pager company. But when the cellphone came to town in 1995 the value of the stocks went down continuously and in a year it was from 20 pesos per share it became 1 peso. It was a terrible experience for us.

Well, I have not tried my hands on buying and selling shares from the stock exchange. However, I have invested on a business and I own 10 percent shares. In that sense, yes, I have invested in stocks. However, my investment is very different from the stock exchange trading. The reason why I have never consider trading on stock exchange is because you need a lot of money, and you must be financially able to hold your investment.

No, I haven't tried it yet, but I think I won't invest in stocks anyway because of the instability in the earnings.

I used to do stock business in my country Bangladesh in 2010. At that time all share prices were hiking, everybody was making a profit from 2010 to 2011. After then it was shocking and the market crushed down, all the share prices decreased to almost 60%. Since then I left this business.
