Apple stoled my money

I bought Apple stock today. I’ve been sitting on my graduation money for about a week now, but today the stock was doing some tempting things, so I finally threw down. 15 shares at $64.43 now have my name on them.
Their online system was puking at me, so I ended up calling it in. Usually there’s an associated fee, but I got that waved, due to the troubles.
I expect my riches will be pouring in any moment now. Should I place that order for a personal jet now or later?

Personally, I think you should send some of those riches my way so I can quit my evil job and keep working part-time at my good job while filling in the extra hours by making stuff to sell. Maybe I’ll even write a little.

Heh Tyler, talk your brother Mason who actually has some cash on hand for a change, and get him to do some of that stock. You never know Mason it’s kinda like gambling, you know your favouite passtime!

Smarter than me. I bought a bunch at $75.

Yeah, it kept going down after I bought it too, down exactly 0.5. It’s a good thing I had to jump through so many hoops to buy stock, or I would have bought it back when it was at 75 too.
Oh well, rumor has it a new iPod will be released on April Fool’s Day. That should bring it up again.

Oh and Mason, I’m not sure if I’d recommend buying stock. I’m doing it mostly cuz I can’t think of anything else to do with the money. But it’s like gambling without any of the fun or the friends.
It’s more interesting than putting the money in a savings account, though. It’s also good practice, in case you ever get a job that partially pays you in stock.

I had a sleepy thought this morning about starting a savings account and linking it through a stock agency. And then I woke up, realizing that I will never have the money to buy stocks. Silly me.
