How do everyday people get so freakin rich these days? Well some might be born into a golden cradle, but for the rest of us there must be a different way. We could invest in the Stock Market. You invest in companies that you think will profit, or make money, by buying shares of that company. In buying those shares, you are now part owner of that company. Let?s say you buy 1,000 shares of Nintendo at $10 per share. Your net cost would be $10,000. Now if that companies shares go up to $11 per share and you still have 1,000 shares you would now have $11,000. So $1,000 is your net gain. But if Nintendo starts going down and sells shares at $9 per share. Now you have a net loss of $1,000. So yes playing the game is kind of risky, but it could payoff big in the end.
