Hey, if Indiana Jones can carry one, so can I.

Oh sure, you say that now. Easy to say that, when there's no way for any of us to see or sample your handiwork. I suggest you invite me over for cake, so I can report back here.

This is a decent primer on the basic types of stocks and principles behind investing, but it is irresponsible to give this kind of advice to the original poster.

That's the price you pay for your carefree lifestyle.

I burn $100 bills in my biolite campstove to recharge my iPhone.
