Purchasing a stock may seem straightforward, but selecting the correct stock without a proven strategy can be exceedingly challenging. I've been working on expanding my $210K portfolio for a while, and my primary obstacle is the lack of clear entry and exit strategies. Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated

Isn’t it great when people talk about how to become wealthy vs just condemning the wealthy?

[jasonuerkvitz]

There is an X factor Ben is leaving out.
Ben is extraordinarily smart, and he's smart because he's above average in intelligence.
Ben is blessed by parents that cultivated a deep spirit of hard work and conscientiousness within him at a very early age. This is common in children that are bilingual--I'm assuming Ben both reads and speaks Hebrew and is incredibly gifted in English. Ben went through the normal rites of passage typical for an Orthodox Jew. The amount of study and dedication this requires builds a strong work ethic that translates into academia seamlessly.
Ben's story isn't everyone's story.
Ben's story is a rare one. It's achievable, but let's be honest when we compare our daily work routines and habits now, or even when we were in our early twenties, with those of Ben's. Ben is a work horse. He's driven and his internal motivators come from an as of yet undefined source. I say that because he himself didn't describe it or at least attempt to do so. Did he work his ass off because he's greedy? Competitive? Did he believe that it was his duty to his parents? Whatever the reasons were, he came to the challenge equipped in a way 1% of the nation bears, if not less. What is more, he understood what was required of him to put his qualities to work, and they weren't mediocre qualities, they were refined and salient, and regarded issues that bore significance, both intrinsically and extrinsically to his audience.
On that note, he had an audience. Or, at the very least, he sought one out, or recognized a group that would listen for a moment, or read a couple of lines from his column.
Let's compare this to you or me.
Ben is extraordinary. Ben is tenacious, hard-working, intelligent, sober, religious, loyal, and, perhaps, cunning, if not surreptitiously devious.
He also has good business associates and friends.
Let's compare this to you or me.
If you are brutally frank with yourself, you have, perhaps, a tenth of what Ben had and has going for him. That being said, you'd have to work ten times harder than he did to get to maybe $500K, let alone $250K a year.
No, making $1 million a year is a special thing. You have to bear a voracious appetite for success, be superhumanly sleepless in your pursuits and endeavors, and choose cogently in what it is you work at and chase to have a chance.
I know no one read my comment as it's too wordy and likely buried at the bottom of many others, but if you read through this and truly wish to be a millionaire, please, first, be good to yourself, those nearest you, the weak and vulnerable. Be willing to sacrifice on behalf of them. Know that death resulting in saving others, death resultant from providing for others, is far more noble, far closer to the divine, bears much more grace, then grinding your ass off for materialism and financial success. In short, it's not the end all be all, but if achieved purely, and without forfeit of dignity and ethics, then you've done something few have ever achieved.

Mitch Kapor, the developer of the first PC spreadsheet program, was onced asked for advice on "how to make a million dollars."
His very astute answer was this: "Everyone say that they want to MAKE a million dollars, when what they actually want is to SPEND a million dollars. First, you have to realize that these are completely different desires."

#1 rule of generating wealth... live within your means.

[Brennanoliver]

My spouse and I are adding a variety of stocks/ETF to my present holdings for the long term, We've set aside $250k to start following inflation-indexed bonds and stocks of companies with solid cash flows, I believe it is a good time to capitalize on the market for long-term gains, but it wouldn't hurt to know means of actualizing short term profit.

Get a high school diploma.
Stay out of prison.
Get a job.
Don't have kids until you are married.
Stay out of debt, except for a home.
Invest 10% or more into 401k, Roth IRA, etc.

That's how you make money.

To my understanding this just proves how much we need an edge as investors because playing the market like everyone else just isn’t good enough. I've been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it's the best time to get started on the market, what are your thoughts?

[rannyorton]

I was advised to diversify my portfolio among several assets such as stocks and bonds since this can protect my portfolio for retirement. I'm seeking to invest $200K across markets but don't know where to start.

Everyone in the commemts saying "you don't need a million dollars" you need to realise: Its not just the 1.000.000 dollars that count, but all the good things it is representative of. The hard work you do will be of benefits to countless people, and make the world a better place. The money is just a tool in this process.

My goal was to make a million dollars a year by the time I turn 50. I'm halfway there. I'm 50.

I was never driven enough to make a millions. That's why I am not and never will be a millionaire. All I wanted was to be married and have kids and have a decent paying job to raise my family. I am content with that. I was told if you want to be rich, know someone who teaches you the ways to make money, do everything opposite of what poor people do and take risks. I know people who have their own million dollar businesses and they say they work seven days a week and long hours. You work while everyone else sleeps. I never wanted this.

Why is it everybody wants Ben to apologize to Candace? It's just f'n business. Nothing personal. Ben doesn't have the ability to hire or fire. Think about it... When you get let go or you decide to leave a company, so you say sorry to each other? I don't think so. Grow up people. LOL

It's funny how people who work 20h a week without putting effort into it and earning minimum wage regularly complain about people working 4 jobs and having a 100h work week making significantly more than them and calling it "unfair".
Like I currently work a 40 hour week, I study CS, I'm taking extra courses I don't need to, program at home, work another ~40 hours a month for the university teaching courses. Class mates regularly ask why I have a net income about twice as high as people working minimum wage and how I got "so good at coding", they chock that up to me just magically being better, more lucky or more experienced. Yeah but like, ask yourself why I am more experienced.
Like, seriously: It's because I don't spend all of my time sitting at home bingewatching Netflix and playing Minecraft all day, that's why. There is no magic "get lucky" trick. You want to earn money? Apply yourself, that simple. If you only take two courses per semester and work in retail 5h a week you are obviously not gonna get your finances sorted.

*I had problem comprehending trading in general. I tried watching other YouTube trading channels, but they made the concepts more complicated. I was almost giving up until when i discovered content and explain everything in detail. The videos are easy to follow*
