Fun With Investing – Take the Money Pros Index Fund Challenge

Sometimes investing can be boring…, so how about spicing it up by a friendly competition against the Money Pros Index Fund Challenge members?

Money Pros Index Fund Challenge

Money Pros Index Fund Challenge

Here’s how it works:

  1. PICK 3 STOCKS you think will perform the best in 2012
  2. SIGN-UP on the Money Pros Index Fund Challenge registration form – before the first trading day of 2012!
  3. FOLLOW your progress, and see if you can make the leaderboard

This will be the 1st year of the challenge so it should be both a fun and interesting experience!!!

Some unique features of the challenge are that the stocks prices are updated at least daily.  So you can check to see how your picks are performing.  The picks performance should be accurate as of that day’s prices (give or take 20 minutes).

Since this is the first year of the challenge the look and feel may change throughout the year for the better.

 

Why Participate?

  • Bragging rights!  Most, if not all of the members dabble in stocks and other investments.  Would it be cool to outrank the members in the index?
  • Potential exposure to interesting new stocks.  Most of the picks should be interesting to say the least.
  • It’s a great way to track the performance of your three favorite stocks throughout the year.  Since once the picks are in, they are frozen.
  • Be a Charter member of the program.  While we’re still working out all of the final details, we may have a hall of fame record of who placed first for the year.
  • Cool place to visit!  It’ll be dynamic, so make sure you sign up!

We hope you join and enjoy the challenge, I’m sure we will.
