Investment / Personal Finance
A place to discuss investments and personal finances. It is well-understood that many people are living “on the edge” and cannot do any investing at all. This group is for those people as well, to discuss ways to try and improve their financial situations in small steps.

I bought silver pre and post Y2k and still hold it despite almost tripling my investment. I bought it as insurance for the zombie apocalypse.

I have spent the past six years off-and-on studying silver in my spare time. I am interested in silver because I believe that an average joe like myself can make a lot of money investing in it, with very little risk, and that it would be great to have some on hand when the apocalypse hits. 😉 What I am about to share here I do with the hope that…[Read more]

Publicly traded companies have an obligation to do whatever they can to generate profits for investors, but that doesn’t mean they are all solely focused on money. Some companies also make it a priority to operate both ethically and humanely. To help identify these socially responsible companies, Ethisphere International publishes an annual list o…[Read more]
