Elroy displays 3 decimal places of shares but the spreadsheet stores it as Dollars you chose divided by the opening price.

You put $25 in GOOG
at 618.48
so you have 25/618.48 shares

which displays as
0.040
but is stored as
0.040421678954857 ...

Elroy's mid-day update showed your GOOG worth 25.20 up 1%, not down 1%.

And yes, I did buy BRKA in Round 10.

Bought at 88,250.10, ended the game at 101,150.00
