I would like to have a profit by the time contest is over. Good luck to all 

 Good Luck to you and everyone else.

So would I!!!  Last game I started off good, dropped, and never could get back above 90K. 

in real life i just play with stocks. i try to make money but at the same time i focus on not losing any as best i can. i like it a little more than monopoly. because in monopoly... you mostly screw up by not rolling the die correctly or not at all (skipping a player by accident or simply forgetting you were playing).  in the market, when theres a bad day its because someone somewhere made a boo boo.

I barely finished above the $90,000 mark.  Hopefully this game I can stay above $100,000.

just win baby

i only playd for 2 or 3 weeks and only rose to 15k but good luck to all this time around :D

Of course play for the win! Either go big or go home in simulations :) 

I'll take a win too.......................

me too...good luck

To win would be great.  I kinda doubt it will happen though as this is my first full season so I'm looking at focusing on certain stock types and see how they do.  Hopefully in a couple of years time I will have an idea on what I'm doing and develope my own mix of stock types to give me consistant results.  Seriously though if you can consistantly finish a game with over 10% gains your doing pretty well.  Most people shoot for that kind of gain in a year.

 Whatever your goals for the game good luck and have fun playing.

Wouldnt we all!

 play to win!! its a simulation, play aggressively and aggressively hang onto whatever gains you have! nows the time to let go of all the "what wouldve happened if i did..." things floating in your head because you were too sissy to do it with your real portfolio. just let go!

Last 3 contests I would have been happy to just end above 100K   Maybe better luck this time!
