1K Portfolio

Happy Holidays!  This is a reminder that what you see is real.  This is not fake and real money is at stake.  To some, $1000 is alot of money.  To others, $1000 is just “a drop in the bucket”.  Either way, making money is usually better than losing it.

Welcome!

This site is documentation for my $1000 experiment in trading. This is REAL money — my personal hard-earned money. I’m doing this to show my friends that it doesn’t take much money to start in the market. The portfolio is mostly for pure speculation of stock and options (with focus on the latter).

If things DO NOT go well, I will lose all of it.
If things DO go well, I will continuing to grow all of it.

The best part? You get to see it ALL right here!

I will document as much as possible — from the brokerage account creation to occasional screenshots of the portfolio.

P.S. Wish me luck. I’ll need it.
