Intro and Methods

Anthony Coppola

Introduction

Wondering when to initially invest in the stock market is a troubling question to millions of Americans. The problem with this is there is no one specific answer to this question. Many studies have been done and it is a fact that the earlier you start investing the benefits will be greater. If you invest early it makes retiring early more likely (cnbc). However, when interviewing the president of Capital one Investing he suggests that his clients have roughly six months of savings in the bank before they start investing (Money CNN). This is due to if the market crashes they want their clients to still have money in the bank.

Methods

Participants

For this study the research conducted was from students at the University of Iowa. This study was taken randomly on the campus, involving both males and females. The survey consists of an equal amount of freshman, sophomore, junior, and seniors. The goal of this is to see who invested and when to find the best age to invest in Wall Street.

Procedure

The participants for this experiment took a short online survey that was created on google forums. These questions were simple and included yes or no answers and a few short open ended responses. Overall the survey took under four minutes to complete. The questions were written to figure out when the best age to invest would be and for those invested if they benefited by learning how to handle money.

The NYSE is a risky business decision, but can hep you make lots of money. The stock market is a way to invest in large companies and potentially own part of the company. This allows you to make money when they make money or vise versa. Knowing the correct age to start investing in the market can help set yourself up for a successful future.  


1. What year in school are you? and Do you own any stocks?
2. What age did you first buy stocks?
3. why did yo first get into investments?
4.How has this benefited you in college? Has it hurt?
5. What is the best lesson this has taught you?

topic proposal. In your topic proposal,

Business
I propose a study that is over the difference between how many people buy stocks at each grade. ask freshman sophomores, juniors, seniors if they invest in the stock market and compare the data to see the trends of who invests and who does invest.
2 questions
       What type of people in each grade are investing?
       How is invest benefitting them or hurting them?
To do this I will go to my fraternity house and interview and survey a bunch of the freshman and  upperclassman. Ill ask them my questions and write down what they do anonymously. From there I will place the information into a spreadsheet and create graphs to analyze the data. The goal is to look into and see if investing in the stock market early on is a good thing and see what people learn from investing early.

Write a few paragraphs on how the genre of IMRaD report is different from an argument-based research paper you’ve been writing in English classes. Post it to your blog.

IMRAD stands for introduction, methods, results and Discussion.The IMRAD report tells one how two write and academic paper and our first draft was not an academic piece. In our First major assignment we wrote about a given field and described how to write in the topic. The paper used academic sources with in the paper however, we also had non-academic pieces. 
The IMRAD describes tactics to write the academic piece. It gives you the structure of how to write the academic paper. The paper consists of a title, abstract or executive summery, introduction, methods, results, discussion or recommendation, and lastly references. This is very different from the previous paper in how the last draft only included; a title, introduction, body with arguments, a conclusion, and references. The main difference other than not having similar parts between the two is that our last paper was flexible. We were able to add some of our own ideas and not just the facts behind it, we analyzed the topic. This next piece will not have ones on opinion it will be strictly the facts.

Conclusion

Colin Kaepernick tells us to believe in something, even if it means sacrificing everything, just like he did. He gave up his NFL career and since has donated over one million dollars to help kids stand up and push for their dreams. Colin had his time where no one looked up to him, but at the end of darkness their is the light. Colin has reached the light and people are starting to look up to him again. Not as a football star but as a good role model. The final thought Colin leaves us with is” don’t ask if your dreams are crazy, but if they are crazy enough.”
