Could I make money in the stock market?

Posted at: 2014-12-05 
some people do, I have yet to see anyone make anything of any significant amount

I have a client with probably around $400K invested and for the most part the transactions are losses, she did make some gains, less than $20K and paid over $4k in fees--I don't consider that making money

not with investments in munis say of the same amount, she would probably have the $20 K as income but NO TAXES so her income is REAL

You could. On the other hand you could lose all your money, especially if you don't know what you are doing.

Dealing in stocks is basically posh gambling.

You certainly can. But it's not as easy as you say it is. It's not a one-day thing.

Check out Vanguard or Fidelity. Let their "experts" invest your money.

people make millions yearly in the market

you didn't know that?

anyone that is smart enough can do it

dummies,, well,,, they make others rich

If I was able to size up an im particular market. Like the automobile market meaning, evaluate all the current industry powers and the up and coming ones. Would I have an advantage in the market. Would I be able to make money?
