Give me some sunshine,
Give me some rain 🥹

Given the current job market, fear, AI, and poisonous work environment I now think Hritik's plan to earn till 40 and then retire was the best one. Katrina spoilt it!

Now even i think to work till 40 and save the best amount I could then retire and do something meaningful with my life.

It's just 1 life we have got. Don't wanna live by force and pressure.

Hi there, I had a question about 401k or Roth IRA. Should I put money into anyone of the two as an international student? I don’t see the point because I want to invest my money instead of saving it. Plus I don’t even have a permanent resident status so I don’t know if it makes sense saving it for retirement. On the other hand, the employer match and so on sounds good. So should I save it and take it out later or just invest it?

What is a simple way to explain to my boyfriend that investing in equity with an expected return of 10% is better than paying off debt that is growing at a rate of 6%. He has student loans and is adamant that he wants to pay all of them off immediately before saving any retirement money. I understand that many individuals use this strategy but I think investing in index funds for the long haul is better from a wealth accumulation perspective, without even factoring in tax implications of 401k
