Stock Trading - Entry 43
While I am not dispensing financial advice in this article or any of my previous articles on Vocal.Media, what I am about to get into involves numbers that can lie to a micro-investor such as myself. I would be curious to know if any of these or other numbers have lied to other investors out there as well - so leave a comment at the very end of this page with a few details. Alrighty, let's get started.

Stock Trading - Entry 42
Ok, so we have all heard the phrase 'vote with your dollars' and for micro-investors such as myself, that means a whole lot is out of my hands when it comes to building a stock portfolio that is actually in the black. I can say whatever I want about picking, but in the end, I have nothing to do with aligning the stars so I can make money from stock trading. I mean, I don't sway hundreds of thousands of customers to buy this product or service as opposed to that one. Neither can I (currently) afford to buy millions of shares in a company so as to directly influence internal operations and development. I don't (currently) have money to burn by propping up an enterprise that has terrible cashflow in spite of them having products or services that can make a positive difference in the world. All of this then begs the question:

With the aim of keeping the focus on dispelling myths and keeping things interesting, I will not get into my thirteen questions and instead provide an overview of the other blockchains I invested in, what my blockchain portfolio looks like, and what I intend to do with it. This is not financial advice, only my thoughts and opinions on my own situation.

Earlier, I learned the hard way about guarding my tokens in a personalized wallet, or at least one I have control over. Other than maintaining control, why would I now try investing in Bitcoin again, but smartly? Bear in mind that in this article, I am expressing my thoughts and opinions as they pertain to yours truly and my situation. I am NOT dispensing financial advice.

Stock Trading - Entry 39
Taking a break from blockchains for a sec, this article is more of an op ed to catch yous up on my thinking about happenings in the real stock market at the tail end of winter and start of spring. As usual, this is not financial advice, only my ruminations regarding my unique situation. (So whenever I say 'you' in this article, I am referring to the author of this article, yours truly.)

In the romper room (AKA the blockchain sphere/ecosystem/wild west), I considered other blockchains to add to my portfolio. Note that I am not dispensing financial advise here. In this article, I outline what went through my mind based on my own situation to determine whether or not to invest in Cardano (token symbol ADA).

So I opened the polkadot door, but I didn't just stand at the doorway, I entered the romper room because I wanted a little of this and a little of that to hedge my bets. What follows are my thoughts and opinions as they relate to my own situation as a micro-investor; I am not dispensing financial advise. In this article, I focus on the Cosmos blockchain, whose token name is ATOM.

Stock Trading - Entry 36
Ah, the good ol' days of Polkaroo! But this article is neither about a Canadian TV show for kids nor am I dispensing financial advice. In this article I take a look at the Polkadot blockchain from my own micro-investor perspective to see if and how I should invest in it.

Stock Trading - Entry 34
In early 2024, I was completely unconvinced in the use case of just about any blockchain I looked at (which was only handful, granted). I mean there were fiat blockchains, there were blockchains replicating the gold standard, and there were blockchains with industry-specific use cases already saturated with miners. Without a use case; me, myself, and I could not find substantive value to rely on as an investor back then. (Bear in mind, I am not providing financial advice, neither then nor now.)
