Thanks for the answer…. used to do write web software in PHP/MySQL environment… can relate to another programmer. Good job on this blog and the search engine rankings you’ve achieved in a short time. (Like “Short Sale”)

Yeah I’m not really into stock investing except riding this one investment I got now… because its a gold mining company and investing in gold when anything paper-based is crashing is always a good idea in my opinion. And yes I’ve learned enough about pennies that post of them are pump-n-dumps, but then again there are those few that will make you a bundle if you can find it.

So, I don’t really care about stocks, i’m in it because I want exposure to gold and investing into a mining company will give you more returns than the physical metal (and of course, there is more risk).

But yes, my core competency is web stuff and now i’m learning more and more about internet marketing. Launching my first information product soon.

I’ve asked this on Tweeter, and if you’d rather not say, that’s fine, but….

What kind of business are you doing right now?

@ Casey – I did mostly intra-day stuff yes. Some swing trading, and there I would use options. I never traded penny stocks, 99% of those are just pump schemes.

But really, Casey. I wouldn’t suggest following in my footsteps. Sell what you have, and invest in what you know. You don’t know stocks. You do know how to write, and build websites….why not invest there?

Yeah DebtKid… its been a little rough lately out on the marketz. In your day-trading days, did you do a lot of intra-day stuff or trading every couple days/weeks? I’m also curious if you were doing stock or options or LEAPs or what? Perhaps you shared earlier on the blog. I just want to see what exactly you did so I can relate… trading any penny stocks by any chance?

Thanks for your response, DK.

I totally get that a boring life is quite a bit more pleasant.

Casey, Casey, Casey.

Your little stock was down 22% today.

I think it’s time for a divorce. : )

I know what you mean about the emotions of it… doing a little stock trading right now (see my latest post on TrueCasey.com)… just one stock that they say I’m “married to”. Isn’t it good to marry when you found the “right one”?
