After seeing another post about a school stock competition, it reminded me of the “feud” on whether YouTuber boxing is good for the sport.
On one hand, introducing kids to finance and stocks is good because it (hopefully) destigmatize fears and misconceptions about the stock market. This could lead to better financial literacy and independence in the future.
On the other hand, however, it may encourage risky plays over slow and steady in order to “win” the competition (I.E most money after a year/semester = win). If a random kid throws the fake money into a random penny stock that 10x it must be super easy in real life to make money right?
Both trading styles have their merit.
What do you guys think, is this all in my head?
