I mean it, put some money every paycheck into etfs and mutual funds and forget that it exists for 20 years. Put it this way if the S&P500 is tanking by a large margin I promise you’ll have bigger problems than the stock market, we all would haha

Please remember you have to be right twice. First be right when you're selling and then right when buying. Anything else is buying high and selling low.

Spoiler alert it is really hard to do that consistently and you are not informed enough to do it. If you were you wouldn't be working a day job still. You'd be posting from your yacht.

Markets go up and down. I won’t speak for crypto but the stock market always goes through cycles. Remember the point is to not sell low and lock in your losses. Much more opportunity is lost by missing and upswing than sitting through a downswing.

If you can, sure.

Maybe diversify?

You only lose if you sold

Silver to the moon!

Good old DJIA is trucking along just fine. Maybe don’t buy the hype?

How do y’all deal with people at work who are stuck on stupid? Like they have no idea what they’re talking about and they REFUSE to learn. It’s like they have a god complex or something even with proof, maybe bc of their tenure at the company? Even if there’s valid data backing up that they’re wrong. Maybe it’s bc I’m a type 8 enneagram, but it frustrates the hell out of me!
So any advice would be lovely :)

Hi all,
I’m currently working for a small technical consulting start-up firm. I make good money, have great benefits, and they seem very happy with the work I’m doing, so I know I could move up quickly. However, tech consulting is definitely not my dream job. I want to get into data analytics, and I have an offer from a big company to do just that. I’ve only been at my current company for about 8 months, but I don’t ever see myself loving this job. How do I know when it’s time to make a change?
