How long does the contest last?
Etrade has a stock game each month with same rules. In Dec the winner turned $100000 into about $2 million. In Nov the winner had a $9.99 million portfolio at the end of the month.
BTW, I ranked 6th last month and is also in top 10 list this month.( From today. Check etrade home page for stock game, WWANGEI after 6:00 for today's rankings.)
Prizes: first place $1000, second $500, 3th $100.
Some players repeatly appeared in the top 10 list, which prove a player with good skill can beat market by far.

Who are thse kids? I want them to manage my money instead of most of these idiot managers who have been beaten by the S&P each year.
Each year they say the same thing: "This year will be a stock pickers year" then go right ahead and get trounced again by the S&P.
Oh, the kids are too busy with school and stickball? Well, I would continue to manage my own money then.
