    We need an investment forum

    Many of us are getting older and developing careers. We have disposable income and want to know how to invest it smartly, but investment forums themselves are somewhat inaccessible for beginners since this is a whole field of study.

    Litodude's investing thread is extremely informative, and the back and forth between Rubix and Lito was great.

    Most people know nothing or very little about investing, and I count myself in the "very little" category. I know slightly more than the average person, but I don't consider myself competent by any means.

    I've made a ton of informational threads on the Health/fitness forum and I think Litodude's approach would be similar if there was an investing forum.

    PROPOSAL: The FFR mods should create an investment forum with Litodude and Rubix/Reincarnate as a moderators. I realize Litodude has been banned before, though, so perhaps that disqualifies him, but either way, one or both of them should be moderators for the ability to sticky informative threads.

      Re: We need an investment forum

      There is a shit ton to know about investing and everywhere it seems like people aren't genuinely being taught much about it/knowing where to go to start learning whatever. So ya I agree organizing information applicable to investments in some type of sub-forum is realistically progressive for people on this site.

        +1 if Lito will write out more words than some of his posts in the "current trades" thread. Structured posts like Arch's in the fitness subforum would be great for the investing realm.

        When the game isn't fun for you anymore, take a break. It's not a job, nobody here is professional and getting paid to play and force themselves to constantly improve... it's a game.

          I agree with this suggestion and think it should be implemented.

                      Re: We need an investment forum

                      Im going to be investing some money in property in the next few weeks in BC. Its 50k, downpayment of 5-10k, with a potential appreciation of like 2% of year compared to previous years. My boyfriend would occupy it, (current rent is 800 a month, yes we rent it), so spending 5-10k upfront would negate that cost, we could then rent out the 2nd bedroom for 500 per month, with a mortgage payment of approx 200-250 bucks a month. There is also a strata fee of like 120. This will create a net monthly income of like 200 bucks a month PLUS appreciation PLUS a much lower amount of net cash output. Yay condos

                      I'm a little drunk so it might not make much sense.

                          Administration has made the unanimous decision that an investment forum is not necessary for FFR. Please make do with a thread or two.

                            This needs more elaboration.

                            Virtually all non-FFR discussion forums are "not necessary for FFR" (including Chit Chat, The Garbage Bin and so on) -- The Garbage Bin is especially not-necessary, so you are rejecting this forum not on the grounds that it's "not necessary" but on the grounds that it's somehow less essential to FFR than The Garbage Bin and Chit Chat, which I doubt.

                            So, without any context, what you're saying is meaningless and/or trivially true, since literally every forum that discusses offtopic material is "not necessary for FFR."
