The joy for me, is I was a part of a private investment firm and sponsored by the director. So I was fine in every way.
You're saying a private investment firm hired you? Under the age of 18? What?
I wasn't hired off the bat. Shit, I failed miserably for the first few months, but I eventually broke even, got lucky, made a huge profit on my own call that he trusted, and the rest is history.
I became successful solely off luck, and association. I won't try and tell you I got it because I'm a genius, cause I'm not.
My point is how you were hired at all if you were under 18. It's one thing to open a joint account with someone, and it's quite different to be hired at a firm, where you'd be a trainee trader and wouldn't be in the position to make a lot of money quickly.
Because I expressed my interest, and he liked my principles. We kept talking and he offered to give me a grace period so I could learn how everything worked. From there on I got some money from my dad, and sold my original car. Basically lost all of that money through the learning process. He hired me after I started making money, and it increased exponentially as time went on because I kept getting things right. I was taking a lot of risks and I guess he saw something he liked so he eventually hired me. In the contract we made a deal that I won't discuss because it's hard to explain, the deal is what allowed me to make so much money (totally legal, by the way, I don't mean to make it sound sketchy, it really isn't I just don't feel like explaining.) After a while of working their I eventually resigned, but obviously still kept all my investments and my portfolio. So I'm still making money, just not working at a firm. I'm 18 now, as well. I will probably begin working their again once I graduate college, as he said I'm welcome to come back whenever I want.
Oh wow. This is just embarrassing bro. Nobody cares if you're not rich, but these shitty ass lies you're telling are fucking unbelievable. What do you think I am, stupid?
You made some sort of deal that allowed you to make so much money when it's ILLEGAL for a firm to hire people under the age of 18? There are 10,000 other kids in your area with principles and are interested, and are extremely determined. Not only that, didn't you just say you opened a joint account? Were you hired to oversee accounts and trade for clients the firm has? Which would be a senior position, something unattainable for you without experience.
Yeah this is bullshit.
LOL, wow your way off.
Forget it, there's no point in trying to explain to the point where this is getting annoying.
Not only is everyone blatantly misconstruding me, but this is far off what the thread was even intended for.
Your not going to "find me out" because I'm not even lying, it is what it is, and it's like you guys are expecting me to explain it all and show proof.
Not what happened after the last time I did that, and it's pointless to explain it to people who keep trying to find more.
This thread wasn't even about me.
Sorry dude but it doesn't add up.
You can't be hired under 18. You can open a joint account, but the fact that you made millions so quickly is something that pretty much never happens, so it WOULD be news. You'd say what you invested in that made you so much money. Why can't you simply explain what you did? If it was all on the up and up you could pretty much explain it in one sentence with clear explanations. What area were you investing in to make millions that quickly?
If it's true, can't you at least answer my questions to satisfy my curiosity? I don't understand the reluctance to answer the questions, it's not like you'd have to write an essay or reveal personal information.
Sorrynotsorry
The fact you carried this to another thread instead of pm'ing me makes me not even want to answer your questions. So...

There's some shady car places that'll rent to youngins.
Never heard of one, I've never rented a car
So you say.
I could've made an alt here when this site started and be like "hey guys I'm a millionaire check out this selfie of me in my rented Lamborghini" and who exactly is going to say it isn't mine? You supposedly got your money from trading, you can't trade while under the age of 18. And really, there's no such thing as getting some tips and guidance from a pro and getting rich in a year. My dad used to do that and he broke even by the end of the year which is considered a success in that industry for new traders, and Merrill Lynch was going to recruit him.
It's not so much that I care or I'm trying to disprove that you have money or something, but it really doesn't add up.
There's no age limit to play the stock market. You can be 10, theoretically, and invest.
Also, You can make a crazy amount of money, in about 30 minutes. It's complete luck, not saying I got it in that time frame, but it's possible
Uh, yeah there is. You need to be 18 years old.
No you can't. That's a myth. You can make a lot of money and it is indeed fast paced and you can make a lot of money in a small amount of time, but to make millions in 30 minutes, something drastic needs to have happened.
Honestly the fact you don't even know there's an age requirement for trading and you think you can make millions in 39 minutes really isn't leading me to believe you even understand how the economy works, let alone understand trading. Like I said, my dad did this for real and he was great at it. He taught me a lot about it. And I've learned a lot myself, and from what you're saying, you chose trading stocks as your story because it's something the majority of people think is a get rich quick scheme.
There isn't an age limit
The biggest obstacle to buying stocks is age. In every state in the United States, there is a minimum age to buy and sell securities like buy stocksstocks, bonds, etc. This is due to two reasons. The first is because states and brokers alike agree that children and minors generally aren’t capable of making good decisions involving securities and trading assets. (Some adults apparently aren’t, either, but that’s another issue altogether.)
The second is liability exposure. Brokers do not want to be responsible for the (probably poor) financial decisions minors can make through their systems, so they rightfully keep people who aren’t of age from trading.
What is this minimum age? It depends on the state. If you live in California, the District of Columbia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, South Dakota, Oklahoma, or Virginia, you can’t trade stocks until you reach the age of 18. For every other state, you have to be at least 21 years of age – and brokerages do verify the identity and age of each person attempting to open an account.
You can, however, get what is called a custodial account. This is an account that has the assets in the minor’s name, but the minor’s parents or legal guardians actually administer the account. The only people allowed to place orders for that account are those who are at least 18 years of age (or 21, depending on the state).
Three words, joint brokerage account. Theoretically you can be any age, as long as your paired with someone over the age of 18. Be it a parent or other adult.
Right, so did you do the trading? Who paired up with you? Why? What did you do to make that much money that quickly that you bought a McLaren and a Lambo and have enough to buy a Ferrari?
It's quite an accomplishment and I don't see why you wouldn't brag about how you got it because that's an achievement you should be extremely proud of - if you did the trading and actually made the money and aren't renting cars. Personally I'd be interested to know what you did.
I'm also kind of curious as to why something like this wasn't all over Forbes, Yahoo, et cetera. This would be a pretty big story.
I mean a kid making $300k hit national. Surely someone under the age of 18 making over a million would be even bigger.
I know a bunch of people around my age who are really wealthy by the same means, and you won't find it anywhere. You just have to know them to know. I don't go around preaching this, nor do I really care too. I just talk cars, not business or any of that.
If you hadn't noticed.
Now there's a bunch of people who got rich like you did?
By investing, yes. I didn't mean literally in the exact same way. I wasn't even referring to the same time period. Once again, everyone taking what I say the wrong way

Three words, joint brokerage account. Theoretically you can be any age, as long as your paired with someone over the age of 18. Be it a parent or other adult. The joy for me, is I was a part of a private investment firm and sponsored by the director. So I was fine in every way.

There's some shady car places that'll rent to youngins.
Never heard of one, I've never rented a car
So you say.
I could've made an alt here when this site started and be like "hey guys I'm a millionaire check out this selfie of me in my rented Lamborghini" and who exactly is going to say it isn't mine? You supposedly got your money from trading, you can't trade while under the age of 18. And really, there's no such thing as getting some tips and guidance from a pro and getting rich in a year. My dad used to do that and he broke even by the end of the year which is considered a success in that industry for new traders, and Merrill Lynch was going to recruit him.
It's not so much that I care or I'm trying to disprove that you have money or something, but it really doesn't add up.
There's no age limit to play the stock market. You can be 10, theoretically, and invest.
Also, You can make a crazy amount of money, in about 30 minutes. It's complete luck, not saying I got it in that time frame, but it's possible
Uh, yeah there is. You need to be 18 years old.
No you can't. That's a myth. You can make a lot of money and it is indeed fast paced and you can make a lot of money in a small amount of time, but to make millions in 30 minutes, something drastic needs to have happened.
Honestly the fact you don't even know there's an age requirement for trading and you think you can make millions in 39 minutes really isn't leading me to believe you even understand how the economy works, let alone understand trading. Like I said, my dad did this for real and he was great at it. He taught me a lot about it. And I've learned a lot myself, and from what you're saying, you chose trading stocks as your story because it's something the majority of people think is a get rich quick scheme.
There isn't an age limit

How much money do you make a year, if you don't mind me asking?
I'm just trying to compare. My family hasn't always been pretty well-off, and I disagree with "money isn't everything". It's definitely something if you're used to nothing.
Not a number I'm willing to share, but it's quite a lot.
Can you ballpark it? Like "more than 500 thousand but less than a million?" Would that be a safe assumption?
Anyways, my justification for my opinion is this. If you're raised with lots of disposable income, you won't know anything else. If you're raised with a decent amount of money, you appreciate more money more.
I was raised in a dead middle class family, so it was normal. Just average But nowadays I personally have a lot of money, and the ballpark I'll give you is over a million

I'll tell you that right now. A lot of you take me as the stereotypical rich fuck boy. And because of that a lot of you have grown to dislike me. No, but I still don't understand how you got your money. You're too young to have millions off trading and you really can't make that much off the stock market on your own. Quite honestly you could just be a rich kid and you rent Lambos from time to time and you act like you own one. Not judging, but I just don't buy it.
Well, let me be totally honest. Sure, money buys me the cars I want and adore and that I drive. But in all honesty, i could be just as happy without them. No you couldn't. Having a car like that to drive around would put a smile on your face no matter how bad your day went. And having all that money, you can't have a bad day unless something really bad happened like losing a loved one or death or a car accident or something that money can't fix.
At the end of the day it really is just a car. I damn love the machines that sleep in my garage, but they aren't worth more then, let's say, a person. Or a family. Or someone's well being or someone's happiness. What's funny is all of you would jump to the conclusion that all I care about is money and money is everything. I don't, at least. I know that if I had all that money I'd be a lot happier, because I have a loving family on top of that. But no, money isn't everything. But it does bring freedom and peace of mind.
Well, fuck money. Seriously bro? You're gonna sit there and tell me that shit when you're supposedly a millionaire?
Money, at it's core really does fuck up society, and it fucks up people. When you value paper over another human being you see how truly dark and evil it can be. You don't even need a lot of it to act that way. Agreed.
I'm doing the same things I planned to do before all of this. I'm still going to college, still planning to learn all the things that truly interest me. A few of you complain that you feel you waisted your life with school and what you studied. Honestly, it's not because of any of that. It's because of your drive.
You like writing? Fuck what the world says, write. Write the best damn book you can make and be damn proud of it. Publish it, and make money off something you truly enjoy. It's possible. More then possible.
I know getting a job nowadays isn't a walk in the park, and so many of you knock yourself down because of it. I know both incredibly, and shit people that can't find jobs. People that are so responsible that get no luck. But they don't give up, they perserve and they make their way back up. Your life is what you make of it.
When you genuinely put your heart and soul into everyday, and into pursuing what YOU want, not what society tells you, then your happy. And along the way, who knows, someone could see you and help you along your path. The world works that way. Nothing to disagree with here.
STEM fields are all good and nice, and if you really want money and want to buy your way into happiness (this is for people who only do it for that reason, not because they like it) then go for it. You'll be miserable for a decade but hey, it'll pay off. See how your money allows you to be happier?
To those of you who truly want the path you see, go for it. Your young, I'm young, we can take risks. Only when you grow older is when you begin to become more methodical. So write, paint, sing, do what your heart desires. And somewhere along that path will you hit the point where it all works out.
If you live life doing what people tell you and by shooting yourself down and suppressing who you are, you aren't living at all.
So live. Money isn't everything, Happiness is.
And money helps you to be in a position where happiness is obtained easier.
You can't rent a car until your...23? Or is it 25?

BC what does the NASDAQ going above 5000 mean
Cumulative rise in points across all companies represented under NASDAQ. Also comprising the different sectors.
The market was at an all time high today
So now wouldn't be a good time to buy stock from companies under NASDAQ
Correct Hitting above 5000 is sort of uncharted, and we have to see how things play out. Last time this happened a few months later we hit the recession because companies that weren't worth anything were being evaluated at inflated prices. Speculation is that this time is different but I'd wait it out. Unless a stock you have an interest in goes down a bit, there's no need to jump in or out as of right now.

I get that some of you guys are trying to refute BC but what exactly are you trying to refute? Albeit he's a guy with no money troubles and two cars more expensive then the majority of our houses, but there's still wisdom in recognizing that money isn't absolute.
The fact that he has money doesn't negate that nor does that fact that money is the driving force behind our current societal structure.
Thank you.

Eh. It keeps Windows on it, and I try not to use it for much else. Hasn't crapped out on me yet, and I've got 4TB for storage on HDDs.
The next upgrade I get will probably be in the graphics card department, but after that, I'd consider a beefier SSD.
The HAF X is badass (mine's got red LEDs), but it's a little big and heavy: takes up most of my car when I'm driving home.
The 900D is quite a lot to hold. I haven't had to move it yet so I can say how much of a pain it is. But I'm sure it will be. The HAF X looks like you could drop it and it would be fine lol (obviously not).

Yeah yeah whatever. You can keep preaching all you want but you're still prancing around on a regular basis bragging about how great your life is and that's mostly due to the fact that you're supposedly quite wealthy. All I see is someone who's incredibly naive and hasn't faced a lot of the basic struggles of life and yet tries to act like he has.
Money is still an essential part of life and you suffer a lot if you're struggling to make enough of it.
My father was unemployed for two years, we nearly lost out house and nearly hit rock bottom. I'm one of five in my family, I know how it feels when shit hits the fan. I was the first one to lose things when shit hit the fan, because I was the youngest. I didn't get Christmas gifts for three years, my other brothers did.
Granted that's the past nowadays, and everything worked out, I know how it feels. I'm not naive and blind to the aspects of life.
Sure, sure. I believe you.
Clearly not.
But your stories are just so compelling. How could I not believe them?
Still holding grudges I see, oh well.
Continue being a skeptic and berating me, you have the freedom to
No grudge, I just keep my skepticism.
Fair enough

Gentlemen. Can we not ride the drama train here. It's money. And a pointless discussion here at that. Every fucking person in here knows they ain't gonna amount to shit anyway. No point gettin' pissy about it in here. There's better ways to spend the evening.
No one is mad though, I don't see anyone getting out of line or anything.
