Publisher Description
Oink-A-Saurus makes learning about saving and investing fun and easy. When you first register, Oink-A-Saurus asks you to tell it about: 1. Your favorite things to buy 2. Your favorite brands 3. Your favorite things to do Oink-A-Saurus uses your answers to create a short list of publicly traded companies (that means you can buy and sell the virtual stocks of these companies) that might be of interest to you. Oink-A-Saurus does this through its Investment Oinker feature. Oink-A-Saurus offers six other neat features. They are: * Who Makes It? Let s say you like the new Super Blast Soccer Ball and want to know who makes it because maybe you ll want to invest in the company that makes the ball. Tell Oink-A-Saurus the name of a product or brand you like and this feature finds the name and stock symbol of the publicly traded company that makes that product or brand. This feature also enables you to read news articles about the company and to pretend buy or sell shares of stock in the company. Companies in which you have pretend bought shares of stock will be listed in your Porkfolio. * Porkfolio Your Porkfolio shows the publicly traded companies whose stock you have pretended to buy through either the Who Makes It? or Investment Oinker features. Your Porkfolio shows you how many shares you have pretend bought in each company and the total amount of profit or loss you have made. Details: You begin Porkfolio with $0 in your Total Cash and Total Value of Stocks. When you buy stock, your Total Cash decreases by the same amount as the increase in your Total Value of Stocks. Over time as the prices of your stocks fluctuate, your Total Value of Stocks may be greater or less than the Total Cash you spent to buy them. If the former, you ll have a Profit else a Loss. * What If? What if five years ago you would have purchased 10 shares each of Google, Apple, and Honda? How much would they be worth today? The What If? feature allows you to see the rise or fall in value of a particular stock had you purchased it on a certain date in the past. Would you have made a profit or a loss? Try it and see. * Investment Education Follow Porky and Pigger, two fun-loving pigs, as they banter about ice-cream, porridge, coffee beans, rubber duckies, e-books, and many, many other things that reveal interesting ideas related to saving, investing, and economics. * 3 Piggy Banks Want to buy something big? Want money for your future? Want to help someone in need? You re more likely to be able to do so if you set savings goals for each of these three purposes. Each of the 3 Piggy Banks allows you to set specific savings goals and track your progress. You can set goals as dollars or as specific items. When you save real money at home toward one of your goals, note how much you saved by adding virtual money to the corresponding Piggy Bank here and you ll hear a contented piggy snort. When you take virtual money out, you ll hear something quite different. Try it and find out for yourself. * Mud Pit Do you have a favorite brand or company? Do want to know more about something you heard or read related to saving, investing, or economics? Do you want to know if other Oinkers (users of Oink-A-Saurus) think buying the stock of a particular company is a good idea? Want to know why Porky is narcoleptic? Want to suggest a topic for Pigger and Porky to banter about? Then jump in the Mud Pit and wallow around. Oink!
