Guess Yahoo’s Monday Closing Price, Win A Free Autographed Book!

Tags: Cool Opportunities, Giveaways, Guessing Games

Since this YHOO/MSFT thing is such an absolute joke, little different from the Ashley Dupre affair and thanks to some solid brainstorming with my friends at TheLion.com, I was inspired to make it into a somewhat useful waste of time by doing a similarly themed giveaway: one free autographed copy of my book, An American Hedge Fund, to whoever guessed YHOO’s opening price Monday morning.

But since great minds think alike, and the greater the mind, the quicker it thinks, Lindzon beat me to it, offering up some cool free yoga gear.

The blogosphere ain’t about copying so to be unique / make it infinitely more difficult / random / annoying, to win an autographed copy of my book, leave a comment on this post guessing YHOO’s CLOSING price on Monday!

    If you take the 24.52 Ask at close and the 24.37 last trade, my 24.54 (#70) post looks good? Maybe good enough for a book? :)

    the next time you’ll have to say closest w/o going over. or since your about shorting stocks..than maybe it should be the closes without being under….either way, i still would’t have won this round.
