I must be a genius

40 days ago I bought 1 share each of those 12 different companies that I liked for various reasons but mostly because I used their product and liked it. Amazon is up 114% on an annualized basis and Google is up 88%. I should have bought 1,000 shares of each on margin. I could retire this year.

I think that qualifies you to run a hedge fund.

Congrats! Even though single shares can be expensive, investing can be a fun hobby.

9 of the 12 have not paid back the $7.95 I paid to buy each one of them. Home Depot is the only other one in the black after transaction costs. The worst performer is BRK B, it's cost me $14 so far. Thinking about selling it to tax loss harvest.

LoL, you sir need robinhood if you're just going to buy 1 share of each of something.

Robinhood with zero commission is great. You can buy a share a day if you want to dollar cost average the crap out of these stocks.

I was also going to mention robinhood. My coworker lives in the app.
