Nothing here constitutes real financial advice, I do not recommend engaging in any of the strategies outlined in this blog or endorse any investing stratgies otherwise, other than building a diversified portfolio which is what I am going to attempt to do here $5 at a time.

There are currently 9 stocks in the portfolio with an additional 3 to be added at the open. Full details after the closing bell today including initial investments, returns, and rationale for why these stocks are included in my blindly bullish attempt to create my own index.

    Correction from earlier, after purchases this morning, I am now at 13 stocks owned in the portfolio with more to follow tomorrow after tonight's purchases of whiskey and cigarettes, speaking of which will probably have to be added to the portfolio in the near future.

The Sass&P afterhours....Way after hours

Hey all, so I promised a blog post about the initial members of the Sass&P 500 which I am going to deliver, but I also figured I should tell everyone who is reading this site a little more about myself. A brief bio. My name is Jason and I am 42 years old, I grew up on the Jersey Shore.

Following this, I spent 5 years in the wilderness learning the art of the sale selling new and used Subaru, Chevrolet, and Jeeps from as far south as Toms River, NJ (my home town) to as far north as Potsdam, NY.

Garbage Pile Status

Hello Readers, It has been a few minutes since I have posted an update on the size and composition of the garbage pile. Since my last post the market has undergone a lot of turmoil. Putin has invaded Ukraine and the Markets have reacted appropriately. Vladimir Putin is a pariah on the international stage and the Russian capital markets are in turmoil. The Ruble is colapsing as expected and their stock market is down over 50% since the invasion. In the garbage pile, I have added new positions in a bunch of places. Notable new positions include both Bank of America, and JP Morgan Chase as both of their stocks suffered significant declines on the invasion of Ukraine. The garbage pile had Disney added but a significant portion of the holdings are gifts for my niece Avery who turned 6 recently and I decided that I wasn't going to buy her legitimate worthless crap, only paper that may at some point in the future prove to be worthless (but it's Disney so probably not).
