Thank you. My 2018 game isn't getting me a spot on the fridge though.

Yeah, I'm feeling a lot like the Eagles at this point. I'll just remember my good days with my 2017 trophy

same as last year, but the small group of stock lickers from the game doesn't ver seem to beat the s&p on average portfolio, I think last year maybe $1-2k more?

at least we showed that index investing isn't such a bad idea spread out over groups of people. but ha, I beat the s&p when half my portfolio is pretty much the s&p, 50% vti. at least my excuse is the s&p is a good backstop to let me choose a riskier fund (lost 2/3 of its value, but dividends made up for it)

Just goes to show buy and old isn't always right depending on what you own. My account is positive this year, but I've traded A LOT this year.

I would disagree as we're not allowed to trade whereas event the S&P has switched positions throughout the year.
