    Ok I am a very beginner here
    Anyone tried this one before, useful? Or better play with real money?
    If aim is to buy ETF, does it really matter to know ins and outs?
    Play the sharemarket game

    Are you looking to play or invest.

    invest with real money. Stick to your PlayStation if you want to play. :D

    The sharemarket game is likely goog for those who wish to trade, speculate,gamble whatever.
    If your aim is to build a solid, passive portfolio through steady & consistant saving & investing using index etf's then 'the game' is unnecessary.

    No definitely not the moon. Index investing is for those looking to stay closer to earth.

    If your looking for a rocket to get to the moon you might want to go look at the crypto thread.
    Just hope the rocket doesn’t go up in flames on the way to the moon. :p

    Ethereum has been on a tear…. I’m hoping Cardano can continue too… speculative play money in Crypto is not what I consider investing but it is a fun little game I like to play.

    For investing consider what you want from a portfolio: Growth, Dividends or a mix of both. Start investing with that outcome in mind and build positions over time.
