Since we are mentioning subreddits, I'll through out r/personalfinance. They have a "prime directive" flow chart for how to handle money that I've found valuable and easy to understand for beginners. I wouldn't consider myself a beginner but I still refer to it occasionally and share it with people who are interested in bettering their financial situation. It doesn't talk about specific stocks or anything like that, but does give good advice on where to allocate money. A good idea is to work your way through the flow chart and get to the end. When you get to the last few options (non tax advantaged accounts/big purchases), then you are probably at a point where additional investment knowledge would be useful.

Hi Fishes!

This question is mainly for the people in that 20s and 30s. Just want to know if there is a trend and if our spending habits are taking a turn for the worse.

Most of us saw increase in our pay checks earlier this year, mainly due to resignation wave. Given how easy it is to spend money these days, have you guys noticed any changes in your spending habits? Have you started overspending or you are still mindful about day to day purchases?
