j******m 发帖数: 92 | 1 I went to the morningstar website to learn what to buy and how to buy bonds.
It says "Bonds are more stable than stocks but riskier than money market
accounts. They are not great for making your money grow rapidly, but they
can help to diversify your portfolio."
Some people call buying bonds as patriotic activity. But under the current
market, it may be helpful. |

y****i 发帖数: 778 | 5 No, but I think the bankruptcy possibility is very low for shorterm because
amazon will charge state tax at most states. The biggest risk is the stock
buy back plan which will cost large cash flow, but S&P already downgrade it
to BB from BBB- because of this uncertainty. The long term 2021 BBY bond
offer up to 9% yield but riskier than this short term bond as a high yield,
so I skip that one even the return may be higher. |

semiannually according to cpi inflation rate.
but maybe it's not worthwhile. the zero-interest environment makes it
difficult not to invest on riskier assets. you're essentially lock in a loss
due to inflation that doesn't get included in cpi. |

1. 为什么要写这篇文章
从2012年5月 开始重新进入美国股市、债市,到现在刚刚满一年。一直想写一点自
己投资的心里历程。一来感谢我的投资启蒙老师(M老师),二来也提供一些经验教训
给和我一样在投资路程上摸索的新手。
2. 复利效应和股场初试
我们对投资重新开始感兴趣,主要是两个原因。一是因为M老师一直以来将他的投
资理念蕴含在和我们闲聊的过程中。现在回头想想,真是辜负和浪费了许多M老师的投
资机会。尤其是听M老师聊在2008年金融危机时的经历,让我们对投资有了一个全新的
认识。原来投资还是有可能“有章可循”。
第二个原因,是对复利效应和追求经济独立... 阅读全帖 |

1. go to a start up, 5 year horizon. roughly say you have 90% prob to make
only the salary (say 100k) then loose your job and this could happen anytime
during that 5 years, so add another 10% discount to that. maybe 9% prob to
make 1M, 0.9% prob to make 10M, 0.1% prob to make 100M. but those high
payouts are likely to be in restricted company shares so I d put a 10%
discount on them.
so we have 0.9*100k*0.9*5+0.09*1000k*0.9+0.009*10000k*0.9+0.001*100000k*0.9

Nearly one-third of the unemployed -- nearly 4.5 million people -- have had

And economists say their prospects won't brighten much even after the
economy starts to strengthen and hiring picks up. Even if they can find a
