I could have beaten him with just one of the many hairs from my chest.

But I felt sorry for him as he had none at all.

Chuck has compasion

I then killed him a few year later with one of my famous roundhouse kicks and made it look like he had a heart attack.

Chuck never looses and that is why Chuck gets the girls.

booooooo yaaaaaa
 

You are talking about that one from Mauritius, aren't you??
 
LOL I had to edit this fairly heavily

2. Chuck Norris isn’t hung like a horse. Horses are hung like Chuck Norris.

3. An anagram for ‘Walker Texas Ranger’ is ‘Karate Wrangler Sex’. I don't know what that is, but it sounds awesome.

4. As a teen Chuck Norris impregnated every nun in a convent tucked away in the hills of Tuscany. Nine months later the nuns gave birth to the 1972 Miami Dolphins, the only undefeated and untied team in professional football history.


7. Chuck Norris can make a woman climax by simply pointing at her and saying "booya".

Chuck Norris once ate three 72 oz. steaks in one hour. He spent the first 45 minutes having sex with his waitress.


9. Chuck Norris did not "lose" his virginity, he stalked it and then destroyed it with extreme prejudice.

10. Chuck Norris does not teabag the ladies. He potato-sacks them.

11. Chuck Norris does not wear a condom. Because there is no such thing as protection from Chuck Norris.

12. Chuck Norris doesn't understand why you should consult your doctor if your erection lasts for more than 4 hours. His erections have been known to last for up to 15 days.

13. Chuck Norris ends every relationship with "Its not me, its you".


16. Chuck Norris lost his virginity before his dad did.

17. Chuck Norris needs a monkey wrench and a blowtorch to masturbate.

18. Chuck Norris once had sex with a cigarette machine in the Osaka airport – and got change.



20. Chuck Norris once visited the Virgin Islands. They are now The Islands.
 
Alrighty, back on topic...

I started when i was 18 (now 21). I did the ASX sharegame and did quite well so i decided to throw some of my real money at it. Started in bluechips, but slowly got more speculative as increased knowledge and greed got the better of me.

Im down today, but put it down to learning fees. I have learnt more from this that 3 yrs of uni, and its still been cheaper than paying for 3 yrs of uni!!

Any new young person i would advise to take their time and learn how the market really operates, and remember, time is on our sides (compounding returns). Dont put all your cash in spec stocks (like i ended up doing), as they can swing wildly.

Also, dont invest money you cant afford to lose, and be mentally prepared to lose money in at least the first year while you find your way.

Hope that helps

i'll get the topic back on line daniel. Listen to what everone has to say but take it all with a grain of salt (including myself). Starting at Maccas is as good a place as any, builds character and shows you the value of a dollar. Will make you think twice before throwing it in the market, as you know hard it is to earn it. Your've saved 2K, brillant! Most others your age could'nt, its not how much you earn, it's how much you save.

All that being said, it sounded more like my dad than me. I got into property in my early 20s, than used that to trade options ever since. If it's in your blood than you'll find a way to do it. Go for it.
 
The best thing in my opinion for you now would be to obtain an education in the markets and all the various instruments that are available. Time is on your side since you are only 16.
Dont worry too much about trading your money saved up, use that for booze and women (or should I say girls...or women if your real smoot )

Im 23 and primarily trade in options, but spent alot of time since I was 18 learning about options. I did a commerce degree at uni, but the content there is no where near enough alone to trade.

My interest in options began because I have been doing martial arts since I was 8. When I was 17, a very senior instructors son came over from Chicago for a 6 month visit. Guy never seemed to work, and was always training. Turns out he was an option trader with his uncles also working at the CBOE.
Saw the dollars possible and blindly followed.

Good luck with your pursuits!!!
 
i'm 22 started investing a year ago and have lost 20k.

cheaper than a private school education though
 
Hey Daniel

I'm 24 and started investing around the age of 18 but have only been investing with serious amounts of money the last year. Whilst it is preferable to do some paper trading and gain some knowledge it might also be a good idea to dip your toes in water and also make a few investments. Nothing forces you to learn faster then by actually entering the market. That being said, know your limits (i.e risk level and time frame). If you are happy to have a 3+ year time frame and can take some losses in the next few months know might be a good time to make a small investment. There are currently some very solid blue chips on the market which are trading at a very large discounts. Also if you are to invest, invest in something you know. My first investment ever was in CBA because I did my banking with them, so I at least knew a bit about the way their business operated.

Good luck!
