I played in a tournament at my school today, whoever got the most money out of 3 rounds won the prize (admission fee was a dollar, so the prize was like $68) and I invested all of my money from early rounds into index stock, then sold right before it crashed twice. And on year 19 in the second round I was losing in 2nd place by almost 20k total. Invested all into gold and it went way up. Got me from 3.8m to 10.2m. I ended up winning by over 2 mil because I didn’t even play in the third round. I just wanna say that it was all luck lol
You have to see that the index fund is going down, and when the index fund is going down, at least one stock is stable enough to go flying through the roof. and when the stocks are dropping, that's when the average of all stocks are going up (aka the index funds is going up positively). which is what you're seeing in the video.
Because the few stocks are recycled there isn't much challenge to it. In 30 plays I have lost to the computer once. If they swapped in more stocks it would actually be a challenging and realistic game.
@@nickjackson2you invest your money in either stocks, index funds which usually always goes up, and/or exchanging your items with gold at the end of your years so you get more than promised
The return is not as good as cds, it is just more stable.... if you want to make real amounts you have to invest in small stocks got to 68 million with just penny stocks, gold, and crop stocks for 2008
