I am a 20 year old student at the University of Minnesota Duluth double majoring in Accounting and Finance and probably minoring in Management Information Systems. I have only been trading for a few months now but have become officially addicted. Thank God I found this board because it gives me something to do. I am up about 70% from my initial investement, and looking for much higher gains!!! Good luck to all of us.

Soon to be 45. Single so have put in the time. Church work/childrens ministries. Trading a little over one year. Turned $5000 into 25,000 in first year, and its only looking better. My motto is - God is good, all the time (GIGATT), and try to remember that even when stock isn't doing great. Majority of money in ERHC right now.
I am a penny trader but not daytrader but am looking in future to use part of funds in it. More confident in short term trading to mid term.

Wow. Some of you guys are doing awesome. I started with $10,000 and i have about $10,100 now (was at about $11k for a bit). To be fair, i did lose a few hundred on GE and Alcoa, which is funny beacuse those are supposed to be the big stable blue chips. So far my big gainers have been GZFX (av cost or .08) and AT&T wireless. Big losers have been IBZT (av cost .041, but waiting on this one) and gwdl. Looking back on it, i was about to pull the trgger and buy qbid at .0018, but i didnt and that was probably a mistake. oh well....

I've been meaning to post on this thread and just haven't gotten the chance!
: )
Anyhow... I'm 28. Just started trading in Nov 2003. Got a Roth IRA through scottrade. In the begining I traded some small caps like EIDSY and ATAR... lost some money on them (although if I had held longer I would have been fine). Basically gave up on those to move some money over into QBID and GZFX. Have a small amount in WNMI, but that's just to trade out and move cash into QBID & GZFX. I've dropped $4250 in my IRA thus far... I'm at $14,000 right now. Feeling GOOD! All of this is of course due to the tremendous DD and leadership of the posters here at allstocks.com. Just opened a new account with Ameritrade for $1000, but my $ money hasn't cleared yet. Eager to get started on that account too... especially before QBID pops again. ; 0

I'm 36, a system administrator and a single mom (hint) of one daughter. I have been "lurking" (just registered today) since the start of this year and have learned quite a bit but hope to learn much much more. I have invested in pennies before and failed miserably but hope to make up for that this year by becoming a wiser investor. If a third (okay maybe one..) of my stocks do good then that will be great! This is a great site and may God bless us all in our investments.

I am a 19 year old student at Whitewater WI and my car was broken into yeasterday. stocks have been a hobby of mine since my senior year of high school when I was entered into a wisconsin stock market contest. I took second in our school but I made over 130k in imaginary money I started with 200K ended with 330k my teacher was veryimpressed. I missed first by 2 dollars. I currently was up 600 last year looking for a major improvement from then to now that is why I am in the pennies.

Hi, I will be 32 in July. I own a third party relocation company. My hobbies are networking my "frenz" homes, designing websites and shopping. I started trading with pennies exactly 7 days ago. I am loving it. Although I've lost 25% of my investment to srci, the learning experience from everyone at Allstocks is keeping me postive. My pennies are: GZFX, QBID, IBZT and oh yeah SRCI(I'm hurting with this one). GLTA.

The ONLY reason I trade is to break out of the cubicle life. I feel like Im trapped in a never ending "Office Space" movie.lol Funny but sad.
I have traded since 16 in the nasdaq and AMEX but this is my first time dealing with pennies. I have lost 40% of my portfolio value, but they have come with lessons learned.
I concider those losses worth every penny. I have a nice 9-5 and I pay for everything out of pocket. Im just waiting for the year when I can quit my 9-5 and trade to live.

19 years old, living in Toronto, ON but moving to Victoria, BC TOMORROW MORNING to go to university. Got into this a couple months ago, bought QBID but decided I shouldn't have all my eggs in one basket so instead of buying more I bought some of PAVP. HA! Still, turned around U$1000 to almost U$6000... I'm not complaining, still trying to calculate how long it would take the S&P to do that. And I don't have to work this year to pay for living expenses Posts: 125 | From: Toronto, ON | Registered: Feb 2004
