"Free Money"

You have to love the stock market, i bought 100 Marconi shares just after they took a battering on monday at 531.35p and now they are 564.50p. Its not exactly a fantastic profit, but if they return to their former glory i will have a nice little sum.

SHE LOVE YOU LONG TIME!

HAR!

Vodafone look good at 127. They only have to go up to 135 and you've made more than would in bank over a year. I bought them for 129 a couple months back and sold them for 140 two days later!

Long term i'd say Lloyds. They pay just under 30p dividends a share, which is almost 7% return at the current price. I'm saving up a lump sum to invest in Lloyds at the moment.

How much you still have, salior boy?

No no, you misunderstand me. I had $10 put aside for sucky sucky, but I lost it before I could obtain said sucky sucky.

Was it good though?

I LOST $10 FOR SUCKY SUCKY

Actually it was an £11m loss. But still an improvement.
