Well I guess my holdings are never going back up in value

I am wanting to start investing in real estate in the new year… I’m using this month to read up on it and familiarize myself with it. I am a true beginner and wanted to ask for any tips, tricks, advice, books, videos, magazines, podcasts, etc to start? Please let me know!

For those who own investment properties - Rate being a landlord on a scale of 1-10

What motivates you to start or keep up a side gig? Is it just having more income or a specific financial goal?

Can I live comfortably in Dubai on 25k a month? With wife and kid too?

Which demat accounts can a Citi employee hold ?
Is only Kotak securities allowed ? Are there any exceptions ?

Relocating from the west coast in late spring. We have three kids under 6. School system is important to us. Thinking relocating to the Lake Norman area or Fort Mills. Pros and Cons. Looking to purchase a house and sq at least 3250-3500 min. Any advise for the area.

Have 350k in cash, have unfortunately been super conservative or rather I would say silly holding money in the bank all this while. What would be a reasonable strategy to invest this money?

Best place to get pre-qualified for a mortgage?

I have some collections on my credit report. One from an electric company for $800 (imo they violated terms of contract and sent me to collections in spite of their fuck up), and an apartment for $80~ that charged me a cleaning fee when my apartment was spotless.

Despite these two collections have a 712-720 credit score.

So mortgage lenders care at all about the collections or is it mostly the credit score that matters?

(cont)

The only thing I truly care about is money and I’ve tried hard to not be this way but I can’t help it. My parents came from nothing and I refuse to ever “feel poor” again

Im so happy! I just paid off all my debts!

Anyone seriously wanna start a hedgefund with me ? I can assure a 30% cagr with my quant

Have 50k in brokerage to put towards buying a place in Atlanta. Young 20 something who's lease is ending soon

Does anyone have any insight into partners retiring early? I am at a point where I need to consider leaving if I am not aiming for partner. I don’t see myself working past my 40s.

My gf and me call each other everytime we have free time. However lately she seems disinterested in phone time. She never initiates calls anymore and she tells me she wants to hang up in the middle of the day and not right before bedtime. We live a 4 hour drive apart. And I told her this is like living together from a distance, because I put her on the house speakers. What can I do to keep her engaged?

Repeat
