Spring Break and Stocks

I’m on Spring Break. I ended up getting better than expected grades this quarter, but I can’t fuck anymore classes up. For all of the classes if I would have tried just a fraction harder I know I could have Aced them all.

I bought my first stocks today
It’s alot easier than everyone makes it sound. I think it’s kind of like computers and the internet with people, there’s people that don’t know how to use computers and their scared to use them because they don’t know much about them and all they do is say “I’m not very computer-illiterate” and “I’m not good with computers, I don’t know anything about them” and just give up. Yeah I think that’s the same way people are with the idea of buying stocks too. I’m really hoping to save for a good nest egg for when I retire but I really need a real job to get a good investment flow going.

Investment goals:
Have enough money in the bank, have money in stocks, and own and rent housing. Pretty much be a real boy.

Right now:
money from adsense –> investing in stocks –> stock dividends –> help renting houses –> easy life for me and my wife and a solid investing starting point for my kids.

I bought $50 of Sirius (SIRI) Satellite Radio stock and $60 of Budweiser stock. Although Sirius doesn’t offer dividends, there’s alot of news about it as it is talks with the FCC and US anti-trust about a possible merger with XM Radio. Probably won’t happen, probably will happen. I’ll keep my 13.9 shares of it, if it gets really awesome it will split, and then split, and then split, so I’m not really caring about growth stock, what I’m really focusing in on are ones that are gonna be around probably until I die and pay dividend like YUM, COK, PEP, and of course BUD.
