Investing

First time investor advice books / blogs? Saw the mention of BiggerPockets below. What else is recommended? Trying to get smart on the trade offs / pros cons of different investment approaches (buying lower cost rental properties vs buying your own primary residence and holding vs being a partial investor in development projects etc). Thanks!!

I’ve been thinking about getting into real estate investing. Not right now but later down the road. I’ve been trying to save up for a down payment. What are some good resources for a beginner? Blogs, YouTube, books etc I’m not looking for paid courses because I will be learning at a slow pace. Any help will be appreciated.

To con't the conversation on engagement rings💍 - what do they symbolize to you? My BF and I got into a discussion about this last night. He views them as an investment and an "asset" on the books for his future family. He also has grandparents who had to finance their trip to America by selling their jewels. I see the ring as more of a gift to the future bride that is an expense that can be sold for money if needed, but isn't an investment. I'm fine w/ lab grown, he is not. Thoughts?

Has anyone taught themselves python to help with their investing research or analysis? Any books or courses you would recommend?

Hi all. I am planning to start reading books on investing. (I have a list of 10 books already). I was wondering for those who are well read, do investment books lead to ACTIONABLE things you do to your portfolio or is it just a mindset change? Current portfolio: 28, M, LCOL 160k 50% safe Index funds 30% aggressive ETFs 20% Meme stonks

Any books people recommend to better understand the different markets and how they work in more detail? Not more so for investing, but hoping to be better educated on the different markets.

How did you all become investment wizards? Are there books you recommend?

Should I just bite the bullet and buy a prep course? I’d like to think I’m motivated enough to self study... but I’ve had the books for weeks and haven’t opened them yet. I figure investing 1.5k is the push I need to get me going

Looking to get into residential property investing for rental income. Does anyone have any good books or resources to help?

I’ve been an atty for 5 years at a small firm where I started their PI with exp. from the firm I clerked for. Outside of books and seminars, I have no guidance or mentor. Despite this I’ve been somewhat successful ($1-3 Mil/year) but I never stop working. Additionally, the $70K I’ve been paid for the last 3 years has me bitter and burning out. I asked for a raise but was turned down. I feel like less of an investment and more of a cash cow. Am I asking too much? Any advice?

Not really an investment question but more so money managing strategy of travel.. Planning to book flights via my chase reserve card. The flight booking itself does not have any refund policy after the first 24 hours. Question is if i book via my CSR card and have to cancel for whatever reasons will it be covered? I understand if there is an emergency then might be easier and i have read CSRs website on this. My concern is more so if the COVID cases or so increase and i decide not to fly

Have my investments in index funds. My one for my 401k is closely tied to the S&P. I'm down around 1600 since last week, do I change my fund or stay? I've read in a Tony Robbins book, you should stay even when it's tough and keep buying into it.

I just joined a HF from a technical background and I’ll be sitting with the special situations team helping them optimize their investing process. I realize there’s no way I’m going to pass as a seasoned investor, but what can I do to beef up so I don’t totally embarrass myself? I would rate myself as just slightly above a novice on the knowledge scale (took accounting 101, read 5 or so investing books, and did all the interest theory and advanced probability courses for my math degree)

Anybody have any book recommendations for general money management and investment tips? I tend to hold onto cash and am looking for a thoughtful read on building wealth. There’s a lot of options out there so anything someone found worthwhile would help me narrow it down. Thank you in advance!

Fairly new to investing. For folks that have been in the game for quite some time, what sort of information do you look for in determining whether a company is a good investment or not, whether the price point is high or there’s still room to run, etc. If someone said ABC is a good investment, when doing your DD, what do you look for and why? Any links or books/courses you’ve used would also be appreciated.

Hey folks, I’m about a year into my new SE career and looking to continue to invest in professional skills. I’ve obviously been thrown into the fire learning the sales side of things, but what areas (technical skills, certs, books, etc.) you all would recommend I look to invest in? I’ve been looking at some beginner coding boot camps and scrum product owner certs, but interested in what you all have done to further advance your career

In this new year, I would like to get better at investing. I am embarrassed to say that all I have done is max out my 401K every year. And while I do have savings, its sitting in a bank account unused and just making the bank money. A big part is the lack of knowledge I have on the subject. I just don't know where to start, any suggestions on good how to books for beginners? What daily news sections should I be reading?

Deferred basis in a partnership. If I am looking to prove out the ending deferred related to an investment in a partnership is it as “simple” as taking the initial contribution and rolling in taxable income year over year for tax basis. For book basis initial investment rolling in book income year over year. Minus any distributions for both.

Does anyone have any recommendations on advanced books or other resources to learn about investing ? I’m looking for something much more in depth than what I have already read which usually just explains how to eliminate debt and what dollar cost averaging is. (No debt and already dca)

I know this has been asked before but hoping for some tactical starting points. I grew up in an awesome ... but very blue collar family. My parents didn’t invest so I wasn’t exposed to it growing up. I would like to start. Would some 🐠 be willing to help a newbie navigate the best way to start. Would love recommendations on books, websites, podcasts etc. I have a relatively low risk threshold so I would like to start small and build up to a larger portfolio. I hope that makes sense. Thank you!
