41 for a few more weeks
Would the teenagers here mind letting the board now what they did in their short live to be able to afford a Turbo? Sports ? Lottery ? Parents ?
Btw ,There was a thread started in the off topic board asking about what ones parents did and how one became so successful to be able to afford nice toys like a Porsche , it got very little responses.

22. Was hoping to be an owner at 21, but I bought myself an appartment instead . Still aiming for 22 or 23, though.

I am 21, owning a C2S CAB( hopefully a turbo very soon...)
my family background is not easy to buy a few "toy cars", but affordable. I can cry like a baby to ask for a Porsche but instead, my dad trusts me enough to have me helping him to invest with an average rate of 20% to 40% return each year. (up to date this year's portfolio has reached 35%, it means alot to my dad ) so after around 3 years of doing it, thats how i got my first porsche as a reward.
I maybe depending on my dads fortune to buy a porsche, but at least i have paid my effort for it. (in my location, many young kids(including some people i know) just driving their family cars and posters.. showing off.. . when i bought the porsche, i dont even tell any of my friends until they saw me on the street. personally i like being low profile... )

41 is nothing! Nowadays, most fit men don't start getting old until in their sixties, some even later (as evidenced by a number of Turbo owners over 60).

You deserve it! With such a high annual rate-of-return, your father can be glad to have you on his side.

I no longer am intersted in peoples age (I am 47) however I sure am intersted in how you are getting return rates from 20% to 40%. There must be drugs, plastic surgery or homes in california involved.

Well i have been digging money from my home town.
If you know well in the finance field, i have been investing in the hong kong stock market, mostly H-shares.
thanks to china boosting economy.
for example, 2 stocks from my portfolio, PTR and SNP. my bought in average prices are around US93$ and US55$ respectively(based on ETFs prices). as they have just broken through history high these days. these 2 stocks are already 30% and 41% return.
I also invested in a china gold mining stock zijun mining" which has already given me 70% return! since May's correction of the commodities prices.
and on other side i am doing some commodities future as well from time to time.
so nothing illegal involved : )

How do you manage to get informations on these chinese stocks? How do you follow stocks like these? Every piece of news must be in chinese and quite hard to get.
When you can go up 70% on a stock, you can usually go down by the same amount in less than a month. And to do 40% on your entire portfolio means you invest at very high risk and everything can go up in smoke in a very short period of time.
I'm not willing to loose everything I got. I usually make between 15% to 20% a year. And that's already a lot. An average return is somthing like 8%. So 40% tells me you are playing with fire. I hope you know what you're doing. (Not that I'm a wall street guru or anything, I'm just stating what I believe)
