I feel compelled to tell you that most of my old posts here make me cringe now :-) But they show how I was and how much I've grown since. So I hope I'll look back at my new posts in a decade and cringe just as hard. ~ Kirubakaran Jul 24, 2017

GO GOOG GO

A successful first step into the American stock market (apart from my ESPP). Bought and sold Google for a small but decent (by my standards) profit.

I opened my share trading account in the beginning of August. Started buying from then. Sold off everything today.
