How Has The Stock Market Decline Affected You As A Person?

i rily dont know if i can call myself lucky or unlucky.I cant and i dont eva tink i can sit down and calculate my loss ,i dont want to commit abeg bt i tink my little luck is that i tied some lil funds in acorn private placement and real estate bt cos of fear and love of stocks,i didnt invest as much as i should have done in real estate bt thank God i ve nt resigned,walahi,i for hear wien.Look,in my next time of experiencing stock market boom,i am very sure I cant make as much loss as this.I should have known the nija factor of corruption would arise and spoil the whole thing,abeg that NSE nids restructuring,imagine,u go buy offer,dem go hold your money for years and at the end return substantial amonut of your money without interest!gbajue people.

sell and get out.
It will only get marginally better or really worse.

i have also lost much and of recent, sent 50k to my mumsy to open a saving account for me and she used the money to go and buy shares, i almost cursed her because it was during the period of recession started in uk den, but it wasnt it naija.

naija recession is as a result of the bank ceo thieving culture, and manipulating the books thats why what is happening in naija today has happened. God help us all.

truly this is a time to invest, though time to ripe may not be by the corner but for sure we shall smile

u go wait forever.  Another  opportunity to induce your earnings on your lust.

I escaped the snare of the fowler with profit.

I am not smart but na BABA save me.

Pls the world is changing and has changed so be getting out gradually from the fallen market.

Forget the old Capital and see the current value of your stocks as the new capital

e.g #1million in NSE in 2008 now #100,000 in 2009.

Set your target Value price e.g 5% increase and sell off.

This is penny stock trading if you are good and you still need info and revelations so as not to burn your fingers and faces again.

Also invest in Real Sector like Food, Agric, Real Estate and the Poor

Best of results.

Kai!!! am still paying back what I owe the bank and no consolation in the value of the shares that I use the loan to buy. We thank for life

What are you talking about? where there no corporate frauds, manipulations and deceit in the American financial sector? Have you heard the names; Enron, Worldcom? I strongly recommend you read House of cards. I have a copy to borrow you if you cant spend that much on a book.

Those of you lamenting and cursing, you violated a fundamental rule of investment which is not to risk money you can't afford to lose. Another mistake many of you made was to have invested without a strategy or exit plan.

Personally I have lost money too from the stock market but that is in very small amounts since I use an effective stock market strategy in cost Averaging.

The stock market offers the best return on any form of investment on the long term (I'm talking 20 or more years). Invest for the long term and short term woes will not bother you.

life is funny .  So let me get this, someone calls himself a speculator yet u believed the words that came out of his mouth? Roflmao!!

oh Wait let me guess, next time u will invest with someone who calls himself uncertainty?
I laugh in punjabi

Hasn't affected my life in any way, thankfully. Didn't invest any money. Protip: It pays to be skeptical when dealing with anything Nigerian, ALL THE TIME.

hi folks,
it is very disheartening that many young investment folks got trapped in the capital market meltdown.sincerely speaking,i am also a victim of the circumstances,but notwithstanding for how long are going to be discussing this issue? for how long are we going to be eroded in our worth as the market plunges day in day out.

my friends,this is thee method i have been using,at least to stay afloat,because i strongly believe at the end of the banking saga we shall all smile again.the methods are

There's nothing "NIGERIAN" about a stock market meltdown. Read the news and see what's happened in other countries. It's a global recession not a NIGERIANession.

Stop misinforming people!
