Need to pay for some personal things. Better to use cash in bank and have less in there or pull money early from certain investment accounts? Accidentally contributed more than I wanted from my paycheck with auto deposit.

No way to answer without more details. What kind of investments are you talking about? Can you change your auto deposit? Do you have a credit card you can use until you have more cash? Is the cash you have checking or emergency fund? How long would it take to refill the emergency fund if that is what the cash is?

I changed my auto deposit already but it took a while to process. Investments could be Roth IRA, Roth 401k, or other stocks. Cash is in two checking accounts I have. Total cash: around $20k. Total investments: around $50k. Was planning on using cash for other investments but I know most people will say use cash and build it back up after.

I’m seeing lots of posts about really bad losses. If you trade you’re going to lose money - hopefully not all the time, but many positions will be mistakes. But you need a process to find ideas and manage positions. Two books you should read are “The New Trading for a Livinng” and “The Laws of Trading.” Both look at psychology, process, and risk in different ways that can help you work out your own process. The next 18 months will be much harder than the last 18 - time to start learning.

Hello everyone, I'm trying to get into real estate investing. Some of the books I've read have talked about buying a multi unit property and utilizing investors to get the necessary capital. Does anyone have experience in getting investors? How do you identify investors who may be interested? Are there any sites where you can invest in or post investment opportunities?
Thank you in advance.

However (now 23) I’ve been taking my financial literacy more serious and would like to manage and allocate my own funds. I would be opening up a brokerage soon and would like your opinions on the following. (Cont.)

I got offered by my financial advisor to enter a closed private equity fund that has the objective (not guarantee) to 2x the capital in 10 years. That would mean a consistent 7.2% p.a. though I won't be able to sell, which is not a problem.

Do you think it's worth it?

I use this financial advisor because he's a family friend and I pay close to no fee and it was a nice way of getting into investing.
