Your first purchase on FI
-
Just for a bit of fun, as reminded by the 'first year on FI' thread; what date and who was your first purchase? (go to https://www.footballindex.co.uk/stockmarket/account/transactions to find out)
Mine was 4th December 2018, 20 shares of Fahad Al-Muwallad at 50p [17p now]
(yes, I was duped by the risers list and had no idea what I was doing. Luckily I only made an 80p loss when I sold).
-
20th June, Joao Felix £3.07
-
27TH FEB 2019 - DAVID NERES @ £1.98 OLD MONEY SO I GUESS £0.66p
-
June kulusevski 51p
-
£10 deposit, one week trial:
-
4th November 2018 4 joe Gomez 86p
-
17th May Dan James £1.93
-
1st of April 2019 - Paulo Gazziniga - 21p x 100.
Also sucked in by the risers list. Despite thinking for months about joining FI, having a mental shopping list of about 30 players, including England youth, loan players, transfer prospects and injured players my first purchase was from the top of the risers list. Sold for a small loss.
Second purchase from the same deposit was Ajer at 37p and I still hold.

first deposited £10 in jan 2017 (obvs now with hindsight wish i went balls deep then) played around with it but decided it wasnt for me
came back july 2018 and used the £500 risk free offer but again still didnt realise the potential
back again jan this year to take it seriously this time, total deposits £16k port value £22,450

@nicky540 F***ing hell, you got Zaha for 23p in current money basically.
Those £4.76 in shares would now be worth £49.77... imagine if you just bought £100 of them (i.e. 435 shares these days) and left it there - that £100 would now be £1030.95.
And think how many players have done even better than that since January 2017.

10 x Aleksandr Mitrovic at 86p 10.04.18

@Lukeroro incidentally, also bought Ronaldo that day at 9.70. He's actually cheaper, even after the share split. Shows how cheap he is now! Just a rack of dividends that aren't noted!

Had no idea what I was doing but surprisingly still would've made over 100% CA over 12 months had I put all my future deposits into these at the time (Slightly better than my actual profit % with tonnes of research and index knowledge).
Just added a few of my early 'big' purchases to the queue to free up funds - going to miss seeing these in my port but have to free up funds to top up on someone who i'm almost certain will give me +50% in the next 6 months.

@Feldy 2 share splits since then?
Trying to figure out todays prices...

@Chris-J Only remember one mate, there may well have been two though.

June 2019 - Raheem Sterling
My first and probably my best purchase so far.

Thu 09/02/17 - 09:02:41 Purchase Mesut Ozil 17 -£40.12
Thu 09/02/17 - 09:02:08 Purchase Joe Hart 30 -£33.60This is the best thing about the beta site. I checked now, amazing.
-
I joined that day as well! I also bought a Jack Grealish. Seeing his price nowadays is slightly annoying. I kept buying him for a long time and bailed out about 5 games into this season 🤮
-
Well i was sure sancho was my first purchase but as it turns out he was my first bulk purchase. Turns out it was Foden. Those prices seem awful high though I remember buying Rashford for less than that
