    HELLO Ladies and Gentlemen of ECC!!! I, CaptainCheesy, have devised the most elegant Product!!! We at Cheese Co. Supply have decided to start creating Shares of our magnificent Company!!!

    How Shares work:
    A Share is basically a piece of a Company. In this case, you are buying a piece of Cheese Co. Supply. And as more and more people buy Shares, I will gradually increase the Value of said Shares until no one buys any for 3 days. Once this happens, I will send out an Alert to all Shareholders about the halt in Value Increase. It's up to you to sell them back, or hold on to them for higher Values. When the Stock Sale stops, I will drop the price of Shares to the Default Price. Then selling will begin once again!!!

    *Due NOTE: The value of our Stock Prices will NOT be altered by the ECC Economy, nor will it be altered directly by any player (no selling of CCS Stock in In-Game Trade Chat/ Auction Chat). I will change the prices due to the number of buying people, per share, per person.*

    Share Prices:
    Default: 1 Share = $100 ECD
    Previous: 1 Share = $100 ECD
    Current:1 Share = $174.75 ECD

    Current Shareholders:
    + Rockman1999 - 1 share
    + ze7707 - 10 shares
    + catman172 - 20 shares
    + nicit6 - 50 shares
    + TMGLimitless - 2 Shares
    + catman797 - 9 Shares
    + Dude6688 - 2 Shares
    + HuntFishLive - 10 Shares
    + GTREX55 - 20 Shares
    + owenfox7722 - 2 Shares
    + ninjadude501 - 3 Shares
    + SirChilledMrHobo123 - 4 Shares

    Stock Purchase Requests:
    *no one!!!*
    Purchase Times:
    Open: 8:00 AM EST
    Closed: 9:00 PM EST

    Would you have dividends and would your stock have cycles?

    As people buy stocks, I will gradually increase the Price of each Share by $5 per person, per day. I will constantly keep this post updated on a minutely basis. And as rlv003 said, I'm going to try to implement Dividends and Cycles (I have NO idea what these are). So players who buy stock, will be receiving some benefit.

    As I'm new to Stocks, I don't understand the FULL workings of the Stock Market (my dad is teaching me, but he only teaches me certain things). If you would explain this to me, I would be very thankful. :)

    Dividends are the stockholders shares of the company profits, they are paid regularly. Usually they're a few cents a share, but these are companies whose volumes are in the millions.

    I'll buy 50 shares though.

    Here is an example:
    I buy 10 shares - I pay you $1k
    You pay dividends to me of 10%/week $100
    Offering higher dividends (maybe 20%/week) will generally increase the number of people that want to invest in you.
    A weekly status report showing your progress and financial status would also be a benefit.
    I would be glad to write up a contract for you if you would like that you can use for an example.

    Wishing you success!

    Hate to burst your bubble of "You know everything", but I'm not playing with the Big Companies, such as Google, Intel, Apple, or Microsoft. I trade with Penny Stocks, where I can buy 1000 Shares for about $10. And sell them for an easy $3000, in total making $2000.

    Thanks for the knowledge, and for the great Suggestion. Might I add to your topic, I do not have 100% Company Organization (I'm at around 70%), but once my Company starts making TONS of Money, I'll be sure add Dividends. :)

    Everyone buying stock will cause the stock to go up and then when something bad starts happening to the company, people will begin to sell their stock and that's when it goes down. Buy low, sell high!

    Thanks for your knowledge on the situation. If you'd like, please send me a Forum Message including the format (or just a general example) of said Contract.

    And a big thanks for you too (this info was merely a reminder; I remember how all this works now!!)!! And usually a Value decrease is causes by the drop in Company Trending, a halt on Share Purchasing, or a drop in Company Profits. :)

    Well, it's not hard once you get into the groove pokeashpoke. Just look at how to trade stocks, go to Images, and you'll be fine. Not only that, but I'm making Stock Trading very easy for the Server, so that little kids can pick it up, and earn money here. :)

    This is a great idea!, but the way you have it setup, you are not going to make any money but more likely lose money. If you look at it in a bigger picture this is more like you receiving loans form people, but having to pay back the five dollar interest rate to them for every person who has bought them. I like the Idea of a stock market, I hope that you can find a way to make it work better for you!
