Hello,
It's me again! I thought i'd share this with you..
I was watching T.V and they advertised this place called celebdaq
which is fantastic! It's a site where they give you £10,000 you go and buy shares in celebs! Yes thats right in celebs! But dont get too excited it's not real money!! :nono:

And you earn or lose money depending on how popular the celeb you have a share in is! So if you know someone is gonna release a phat song buy a share in them quick while its still cheap and hopefully it will go up! or if someone has been in the news alot (i.e Michael Jackson :roll: !!!) buy shares in them while it's still going up!
Ok so I here you shouting "Where is the site???!! Let me go there!!"
ok ok!!! here's the link...........

Celebdaq!! (http://www.bbc.co.uk/celebdaq/)

So go my little ones and buy buy buy!!!! :laugh:
And don't forget to have fun as after alll it is a GAME!!! :D

Sterling, Pounds, same thing.

Our currency is abbreviated to GBP, obviously meaning Great Britain Pound, but Sterling, I really don't know if it means anything different.

Im sure our currency is STERLIN not pounds, it is honestly!

Pounds and Sterlings are the same thing dan. I'm surprised to know that a citizen from the UK ignores that they're actually the same thing :laugh:

BTW, I've tried a similar game, if not the same, some time ago, but it was only about musical celebs. I didn't find it to exciting after some time, so I gave up. I remember that my business was going really bad anyways, so it was better to run away from the game's evilness!

I do know what that symbol means and what punds are I just wasn't sure if it would cost you anything to get the game started. If this doesn't make sense I can't really explain it any better. So, if you were to "invest" it wouldn't cost you a dime.

This is just a game, you don't have to pay. It's only "virtual" money you're investing, nothing real. This little explanation is for someone who still has some doubts regarding the money question ;) But the site explains it pretty well, so if you still have doubts, it would be better to look there for an answer.

Yea they are the same thing, I just say Strerlin to present our countries currency, But it would be normal to say in the UK thats 10 pounds or quid for example, not 10 sterlin.:laugh:

I wasn't planning on just Eminem and Dido it just happened that way. But that is probably what would have happened anyway because every other person I wanted wasn't there.
