Chapter 2 - Starting to Understand

'So what do I do now?'

[Find something to do and then come back, it isn't instant so you may need to wait a few days, but it's probably best if you make several trades, you won't have to wait as long and you can get more of a feel around the market.]

'I made 1k now you want me to spend it all.' Ronan thought as he looks back at his computer for several different stocks to buy into.

'What about this one? it seems legit, hey system, is there any way to find out how legit it is?'

[Simple, look at its history, if its been around for long and it has stable trades then it should be around 70% legit, if it has a short history and it highly fluctuates chances are that people are manipulating that certain stock and you would be either likely to lose money or lucky enough to get out with a semi-decent profit, but don't gamble everything you have at a single time.]

'Well, let's try out this one.' Ronan thought as he confirmed to purchase $50 into a stock called Cyber.

'So do I need to do anything or can I just leave it and come back sometime later?'

[Leave it, come back to it tomorrow and something should have happened with the Cyber stock, the penny stock though would most likely take 3-4 days before you see any fluctuation.]

Ronan closes his laptop and checks the time.

19:42

'Eat, Shower, Sleep, I have another lecture at 6 and I want to 'actually' be awake for it.' Ronan thought out his plan before putting it into action.

The next morning Ronan wakes up at 5 AM.

'I went to sleep at roughly 10 PM and even after 7 hours of sleep I still feel like a hell.'

Ronan gets up, brushes his teeth, has a quick wash and gets dressed before heading towards the lecture hall.

Inside isn't as packed as before, but the man in the blue jacket is there without his 'minions' though.

"Hey sit down next to me." He said.

Ronan moves to sit down next to him without saying anything.

"So, want to help me with more coursework? When I gave in my previous textbook the teacher actually didn't look at me with a vision of disdain." He continued.

"I can, but it'll cost and I can't do it all the time, I can only help you, but this time its $100 per module and you'll have to give me your phone number so I can contact you." Ronan set out his conditions for this deal.

"I can agree to those conditions, but you must complete the work I give you within a week, if not then I can't agree." He countered.

"Okay, but what's your name?" Ronan asked.

"Jake, that's all you need to know for now."

'Either he likes to act mysterious or he doesn't want people to judge him based on his family, not like I care though, he gives money, I take money. It's a win-win situation.'

"Okay, then give me your next module and I'll get it done." Ronan said before Jake passed him the next textbook, and not surprisingly it was exactly what he thought it would be, the second textbook out of the set of 5 that we were required to complete.

'If it goes on like this I can easily earn some decent money for a couple of hours of work each day.'

"There's a lecture tomorrow at 3 PM, come to it and I'll give you the completed textbook after it has finished, also how will you pay me?" Ronan asked.

"Okay and I can pay you cash, if you want or direct bank transfer, up to you." Jake answered.

"I'll take cash." Ronan said before he stopped talking and started focusing on lecture.

After the lecture finished Ronan went back to his dorm and opened his laptop to check on his stocks.

'Damnit, why can't I remember my password...' After 10 minutes of failing to get his password right he clicked forgotten password and after another 5 minutes of changing his password he finally got into his account.

'Up by 5%? that seems sweet.'

[Thats only your stocks for cyber, you spent $50 and now they're worth $52.50, if you want you can keep your money in and see if it rises any more, you can also put more money into it or take away your spoils of $2, less than an hours pay.]

'Do you really have to be sarcastic with your comment, fine, I'll keep them in for a while longer.'

After checking his stocks, he picked up the textbook and started working on it.

3 Hours later it's complete, 'Hey system, the money I get for completing Jakes work, does it count towards my net worth?'

[Nope.]

'Really? But wasn't it your idea to do it to get the money? Now it doesn't count towards my net worth? That's BS.'

[...]

[I can make it easier for you, I'll let you exchange money made from now on outside the missions, 5:1, $5 can get you $1 net worth, as you will be mainly making money outside using your net worth for a couple of months then it should be fine for you to trade them, but when you have $1,000,000 the exchange will cease to exist.]

'You're the best, I love you so much, how about I make a shrine for you?'

[You do realise to exchange for 400 net worth you need to spend $2000, and the money you exchange can't be used for anything other than exchanging for prosperity, otherwise that would just be devaluing your net worth, for example, you can use your current net worth now on the stock market, but you can't use exchanged net worth for anything other than prosperity, so I'm making your money worthless and yet you're thanking me? How lovely.]

'...' Ronan's happy expression turned sour when he realised that it was fairly dumb and unless in certain circumstances it's not worth it even 1%.

Ronan took a look at the time, it was 20:34.

'Getting late, should probably sleep at some point, I've got money to earn.' Ronan couldn't be bothered with a shower tonight so he brushed his teeth and went to sleep.
