I remember several years ago, I had hoarded for some reason several pandy packs. Around 2o, I think it was.

I was also a member of one investing guild where I was told how they were one of the worst items next to the sun staffs. So I ended up selling all of them to try to invest in other things.

And now those things are in the 4ook range, the last time I checked. That was the worst advice I was ever given and I listened to them.

So I was wondering, were you ever given some bad advice on investing?

People who say that MC's like last month's are good investments. lol

@Maikeru: Stop saying "first post." It's pointless and annoying as hell.

When I first started gaining an interest in investing I was told that the Summoning Tome's would make a great investment so I invested in them. They sat stagnate for ages. Luckily I managed to break even and get out of them.

Someone told me to invest in Apollo's so i bought 4 of em for 4 mil each

then a week later they were 2m each

i was pissed

BUT the best advice was my sisters- I was selling a NKS then someone saw my regular Kitten Star and offered me a Pale and 6 mil for both kittens- i was really unsure and almost positive it was a bad investment my sis told me to do it, I sold the pale for 15 mil and all 4 appollo's for 2.6 mil each I didnt buy anything for a week bc id never seen so much gold. i wanted to remember what it looked like.
