Think you know movies?
I just found this website, it's called the Hollywood Stock Exchange, it's a free site to speculate on movies/actors/directors as individual "stocks". They give you 2 million in fake money to build your portfolio with. It plays by the normal rules governing a real stock exchange. I just setup my "portfolio" today:

1. It is fun. Been playing it for about 5 years or so.
Started with 2million... high point was 21million... now I am down to about 9 million.

Have fun.

3. Yeah, I dont check it as often as I used to... which was 4 times
a day when I was dotcoming, and I hear things from people about projects and forget to look them up and invest.
So, it is a every-once in a while thing for me now.

2. I would have bought stock in Eminem right before 8 mile, LOL!
When the film came out, I wished I could have bought stock in him, LOL! I might have even mentioned this on this forum.
Now I can--too bad the money isn't real!
Cool, thanks.

4. Just sold short some stock of Keeanu Reeves
I liked revolutions, but i have a feeling that it's "value" is going to drop for a while (I can type something like that, since the NASD doesn't regulate virtual stock exchanges! :crazy:)
