Not work-related but is anyone putting down money on fantasy or anything for football this year? Bets on who'll make it? My moneys on the Chiefs.

Man, I've been doing fantasy for 3 years with my groomsmen and have somehow won the championship each year after never playing before that.

This year I'm 1-5 and unlikely to make the playoffs. It's not fun anymore 🥹

And I'm rolling with the Bills to win it all. Josh Allen is for real.

My Browns somehow didn't have the worst QB trade or contract this off-season.

Nope, I am done with it. Lol, I am saving money now for something else so I can't risk it now on a bet. Maybe after I'm done with my goal.

I am staying far, far away from fantasy lol because it's too hard for me not to spend

No I didn't. I really wish I had though. I just didn't get in on it soon enough

I've never been good with bets so I just sit out on them and watch from the sidelines. I'm keeping my money to myself hahaha!

I'll just leave the betting to my brothers. Haha

Hello all!
I'm 26, I studied economics but I don't know why I'm not much into investing/trading. Someone else like this?
I recognize this is not a very good approach for someone with money "knowledge" and I would like to change this mindset. My main weakness is that I easily get bored of following the market and that I do not see big opportunities. Any advice?
Where to start learning, general advice for LT and ST investments, things you learnt, books that changed your pov on the topic etc.

Thx!

Started at a big firm in July with high hopes- in the career path I wanted and I would be joining with other new grads.
After onboarding, it’s as if my team forgets about us every day. The training is non existent, there doesn’t seem to be any initiative to invest in new hires, my manager scolds me for not knowing enough yet gives no direction. I don’t want to waste time (colleagues mentioned it doesn’t get much better from here). Do I embrace the suck or look for other opportunities?
