1994 U.S. Investing Championships... 3 honors
1st place in Mutual Funds, $500K... mutual funds overall... and $500K overall.

A few years later I likely would have won the MMVR*, but the contest was discontinued mid-year because of SEC hassles.

* Money Manager Verified Ratings"... the rules were, "$1 Million to enter, trade anything you want". I made 144% that year. The prior contest best from other years had been 108%.

Ahhh... if only it were always thus!

I remember 1994, way to go.

I won the 1992 U.S. Futures Championship with 214%, only year I did it.

I learned much during that year, I was not taking all the trades that came up because of the contest, I would have done better just taking all of them, LOL.

There were 3 size categories... $5,000, $50,000, and $500,000 each for stocks, options, futures, option writing, bonds, mutual funds. Which size did you do? (1st 2 times I entered I didn't have $500K, so I did the $50K.)
