G INVEST | DAY ONE ISH

15 years ago, I was forced into buying stocks.

Well…

I'm not really forced. In fact, I use the word “force” loosely here and for comedic purposes.

I just don’t know what the hell I got myself into.

All I know is that I kinda look good if I know in my heart that I am a stockbroker. The stock has crashed and burned constantly and I have no idea how to get the money back… but at least I know it’s there.

I think.

I just installed a new game on my app. No, it’s not pseudo-Pokemon although I am kind of interested in how Axie Infinity works. The game requires brain cells and a lot of acronyms that I don’t get.

I also have 700 pesos on my GCash for the longest time that I don’t use because I don’t really know how to use GCash.

Yes, I just made my first GInvest subscription.

It’s like I bought a new game. I have seen the hype and I think I have an idea on how to play it. I checked out the vlogs of refutable people on the internet like Chinkee Tan and Nicole Alba. I feel like this is Utopia on your phone.

What is Utopia?

Utopia is a text-based strategy RPG where your Faerie Mystic can rage and pillage lands with the help of a calculator.

I have been investing in things I know like NBA and Funko and while I am still holding on to my Ja Morant, Zion Williamson, and Darius Bazley (my Hail Mary card)… I guess staying inside could force me to learn about stocks?

I mean… I guess it’s high time I learn how the world of Unit Investment Trust Funds works! I have a buddy who treats Fantasy Basketball like how he treats his stock.

Hmmm…
