I am keeping this short and leaving interpretation up to you.
The "ROBLOX Investment/Stock Exchange" is a way for NBCers and BCers to earn money, trade money, and such without violating ROBLOX guidelines. There will be stocks for hats, gear, shirts, games, and groups. IF you invest in a 10 robux shirt using 100 robux, and it sells about 1,000 a day, you will gain about 1,000 robux back.
I am not going to work out all the math, but I want the idea to get out there. Basically, imagine a place where you trade stocks, group shares, and invest in other user's stuff. The investment money will either go into a "company" account that can only be used to advertise (in the setting menu) or to the target owner of the item.
Basically another a way to make or lose money. |

Meh.
Could cause inflation...
Or deflation. Depends if users are smart.
...
OH MY GOSH! I COULD BE A ROBLOX CAPITALIST!
Nevermind.
Support. Lel.

Could be like a loan thing. You invest 100 robux into a game that is front page. You gain 1.01% back over a course of a week. Sell the stock to a kid and make 1,000 robux. Then a game update makes it shutdown, stock crashes to 1 robux, you buy 100 robux worth and the game comes back up and it better than ever. Re-sell stocks and continue profit.
sounds cool?? |

Eh. Ish.
Still needs tweaks, though...
Though, some abusiveness just can't be bypassed. |

Sounds good. Just beware - people will scream "NO SUPPORT TC IS STOCKS", which it isn't. Its original function was trading currency with some special mechanics, which some users used to turn it into a convoluted stock exchange sort of thing.

the tryhard clanners and lmaders would love it
and roblox is to help kids learn new skills, get used to 3d rendering, scripting, social interaction, anything they want. a little finance would be good |

Technically, it's for kids to have fun.
But, yes, it does teach things. And financing would help as well. Especially if they asked their parents something, and then they went onto an hour rant and wouldn't let them leave.

Why would ROBLOX let users gain ROBUX when you can simply buy it?
Get the idea? |

Lets see: You will get Robux from other players and if they lose money they might want to rebuy or people buy BC or R$ to get money to invest.
Get the idea?

really like the idea.. idk if roblox would implement it though, it would cause less people to buy more robux.. or would it? i mean, if nbcers could use this, they could make loads of profit without buying BC or robux.
i'm not sure. you could say people would buy more robux to buy more stocks but..
idk.
sounds like a good idea though! support! |

Meh... True.
But, still... Maybe if it were BC+ only.
Actually, you could make a lot of profit off of this... TBC+? |

Instawin, you're being ignorant.
Just because you could use it on DevEx, doesn't mean it has to be that hardcore.
It could be low prices on the stocks. Or, the stocks could take a month at a time to raise/lower at all. So, it could take a full year just to obtain *maybe* R$10,000.
Sure, it's a lot, $100.00 worth(Or more), actually. But the thing is, you have to wait a full year. So, wait a year, get the cash. And not only would you have to wait a year, but to obtain R$10K, you'd have to spend at least a few thousand R$'s in itself.
And what happens when the prices start to drop? Wam. No more R$ for you. Well, unless you have more investments in other stocks, in which case you'd have to pay for R$'s anyway.

Well, if you were being sarcastic, you did a horrible job at it.
"oh god then i realized people would use dev ex for this and ohmylordy"
I'm not sure about you, but usually that's a serious complaint.
