Now that I’m in the country of haute finance, I signed up for a virtual investment game. I’ve been wanting to do the real thing for some time now, but neither have the means nor the know-how to play the Kerviel trading game. So, over the next four months, I’ll occasionally blog about my virtual, €100,000 portfolio, strategy and mishaps.
