When One Penny Makes Me Feel Good

Wooohoo, I won a penny. Exactly one cent. $0.01

So how did I win that impressive amount of money? On a little site called updown.com. Basically its a stock trading simultation that gives you one million dollars in play money that you get to invest on how you see fit. So Susan and I signed up for it this past month. You earn money if you end up beating the stock market. The amount you win is based on how much you beat the S&P 500 by and how long you have been a member of the site.

Well, I did actually beat the market. Not that I gained money, I actually lost money over the month, just not as much money as the stock market did....LOL.

So I made one penny, and I'm pretty darn happy about it.
