"Playing the Game"

Bill Gates, Warren buffet...those guys didn't get $50B+ investing in stocks and bonds.  I managed to triple my money in my 401K in 18 months.  In my game I've made $25,000 in one day (also lost that much)  so I was wondering.....how much does one have to invest to make $1 Million dollar profit in one day?

I added one billion dollars to my "pretend" account.....that's one thousand million dollars!

Even buying blocks of 500,000 shares.......in 30 minutes of stock picking I only manged to 'buy' about $400 Million worth of stock and Gold.  Today,  I only made $230,000.......what the hell?  Tonight I'll see if I can find another $400 million to invest in.  This is harder than I thought it would be!
