I believe the retirement crisis will get even worse. Many struggle to save due to low wages, rising prices, and exorbitant rents. With homeownership becoming unattainable for middle-class Americans, they may not have a home to rely on for retirement either.

I'm a 52yrs Director in a Tech company and I consider myself a high income earner at $350, 000 per annum, I have a retirement account account but i still want to explore opportunities for short term gains before i start working less in few years.

I feel investors should be focusing on under-the-radar stocks, and considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market, Because 35% of my $270k portfolio comprises of plummeting stocks which were once revered and i don't know where to go here out of devastation.

Recently, I've been pondering retirement. I've also invested $800K on S&P 500 so i could secure my financial future. i need an approach to invest in Coin that will align with my risk tolerance and financial goals

I have two pensions. I would much rather have had a Roth 401k throughout my working lifetime. $500/month invested from 25 - 65 at 9% is $2.3mil. I have $100k that i like to invest in a non-retirement account, Where would you invest this as of now?

Successful investing is hard work because it means disciplining your mind to do the opposite of human nature. Buying during a panic, selling during euphoria, and holding on when you are bored and just craving a little action. Investing is 5% intellect and 95% temperament.

I believe retirement means resting and making use of what you have saved all your years of working. We all know without a good plan and guide it will be difficult to save mostly with the past economic situations which is to date. I will say having a financial advisor is a plus.

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274, 800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

I'm in my 50s and I'm more interested in investments that could set me up for retirement, I mean I've heard of people that netted hundreds of thousands during these crash, I listened to someone on a podcast who earned over $650K in less than a year, what's the strategy behind such returns?

If you are planning for retirement Here are some key pointers. Firstly, kick-start your savings early to benefit from compounding. The longer your money has to grow, the better. Secondly, make the most of retirement accounts like 401(k)s and IRAs, especially if your employer offers a matching contribution – it's essentially free money. Thirdly, diversify your investments across different assets to mitigate risk. Think stocks, bonds, and real estate.

Buying stocks might seem easy, but picking the right one without a solid plan is tough. I've been trying to grow my $210K portfolio, but the tricky part is not having clear plans for when to buy and sell. Any tips on this would really help.

I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $450k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point.

It's great you prioritise your retirement. The concept of mini-retirement changed my life. I'm no longer waiting for some retirement paradise when I'm 65. It helps to know how to fund the lifestyle. You know, making money while you sip that piña colada by the beach does help. I wouldn't have been able to do it otherwise.

Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.

[viktorpavel]

I'm 48, sad to say I made terrible money decisions growing up which I'm presently paying for, been dedicating every waking hours towards my retirement and I'd really love to retire to Portugal with atleast $3million by, the market up and down is not helping at all.

Youngsters starting in investing need to learn the ropes, know how much risk they can handle and spread their investments around. Some folks get help from money experts or do their homework before making investment moves. It's all about being smart with your money.

[anthonyrussell]

I think though this was well put out, but it isn't for me. Considering a mid income, short minded person with constant need for cash, are these still recommended? I have over $142k in my portfolio, I'll appreciate a short term profitable investment that could say turn $142k to $300k.

[roddywoods]

I’m compiling and picking stocks that I’d love to hold on to for a few years before retirement, do you think these stocks would do better over the years? I’d love to retire with at least $2million savings. Now you gotta rely on a pretty good diversification if you must stay green. Currently up 21% and being cautious. Still better deal than letting it sit in savings or checking earning near 0-1% interest.

[shellylofgren]

what can I do? I have been disabled since 2009 and I am 58 years old at the verge of retirement. My portfoliio of $750k is down to $492k, How can I profit from the present market", I mean I've heard of people making upto $250k in couple weeks during this crash and I'd like to know how.

In times of crisis, I've seen people make up to $800, 000, and they can do it even in a sluggish economy. Every breakdown or collapse offers an equal market opportunity if you are ready and informed beforehand. Regardless of the state of the economy, someone will undoubtedly become extremely wealthy.
