While it's an interesting idea, it seems like this is suggesting trying to copy someone's short term stock wins. The current page shows someone (6 random faces, where you can't click on details without signup) making some alledly good gains over a couple of years with an unknown amount of money. (another post says you can't signup without a money transfer? yikes!)<p>As I understand it, you want a predictable gain year to year over a long haul. A three-year span where you gain a large percentage, offset by a large drop (which is possible if investing -- aka 2000-era tech bubble crash), results in you having significantly less money than a more subtle, even, diversified rate. Over the long haul, you may lose a lot of money by having a lot of volatility, or not gain as much. This is not to say you must choose very conservative investments, but this is why diversity in investing is useful.<p>I also worry that the site showcases people who made, say, 100%, by a limited number of investments over a short term. There's nothing saying these investments will hold over the long term, which means that following them is essentially random. There's also a bit of danger in investing in just what you know about, for instance, say you really follow donuts.<p>Various mutual funds seem unexciting because they don't offer "quintuple your money" in N months, but you'll end up with a lot of money in the end if you make regular investments.<p>This doesn't just have to be your 401k, it could be an IRA (if you qualify/etc), a combination or both, or some investment on top.<p>Obviously, a lot of people have made a lot of money investing in very specific stocks, but there's nothing to say the past history in investing in those stocks foreshadows future history, and I think the site owes people a bit of education about that, especially younger folks.<p>You may also wish to speak to a financial advisor.
