I came across your channel through this video-case studies are incredibly valuable, and I'm eager to see more in the future! Building wealth involves establishing routines, like consistently setting aside funds at regular intervals for smart investments.

I previously believed that all investors experienced financial ruin during economic downturns, but i now realize that some of them actually make a fortune. In summary, while some people face recessions, others seize profitable opportunities, and it all begins with having the correct mindset. As a result, I have allocated some of my savings for future investments. Regrettably, I lack experience in this area.

I am a little worried about growth projections of funds i kept in a HYSA north of 280k, I aim to avoid FOMO. Am I better off investing into Gold as it seems stocks are a little too unstable right now? Will my money keep with inflation?

I’m convinced that investing significantly in the right stock before it goes big is more important than buying the dip, however picking the right company lies the difficult task. My question is, what are the best ways to accrue profits both in a bull or bear market?

Just another fund manager who can't beat the S&P 500 who's real talent is pitching his product.

[johnsonstrapsman]

I wonder what the best opportunities to invest now are, there are opinions but a little later I find out these opinions don't matter as a totally different turn of events play out with the stocks they discussed therein...

[MrMountain]

This guy has been wrong for the last 2 decades. He's just trying to sell you his product.

I agree with what he’s saying. If everyone keeps piling into index funds, the same stocks will just keep getting bigger regardless of valuations. Now that index investing is roughly 50% of market investing by $ amount, it’s hard for institutional investors to sway the market based on value or price discovery. If I just keep buying VTI & VXUS, or just VT, the same massive companies will keep growing unless something catastrophic happens to those companies. I’m not sure if markets are truly efficient anymore.

The rising interest rate can surely control inflation, but won't prevent erosion of the eroding purchasing power of the US dollar. I have learnt my lesson this time. The banks can't be making money off my money, while inflation eats into it. I have set aside 650k to invest in the stock market now, since that keeps up with inflation, but I don't know how to get started.

[royprovins]

Huh? He just said they have doubled the s and p over 20 years and then they put up a chart that says they have underperformed

[lidam]

It is diversified enough for the remaining 75% to make up for tech stocks. Just stick with s&p and don’t pay attention to any of those so called analyst

[matthew.m.stevick]

the S&P 500 is mainly tech because its 2024. we are not going to go backwards. it’s a great choice to dollar cost average into for most investors whom want stock exposure.

One of the biggest fears about investing in the stock market is the potential for loss. Many people worry about market volatility, economic downturns, and the possibility that their investments may not recover.

intel and Walgreens are value investments now!

[cozyslor]

So buy RSP Equal Weight S&P 500. He's a dork.

[pietertje]

What a JOKE... He wants the last buyers to come in and tumbles and they hidden after excuses 😂😂

[TomEdwardi]

I recently sold some of my long-term position and currently sitting on about 250k, do you think Nvidia is a good buy right now or I have I missed out on a crucial buy period, any good stock recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated.

[Chenghaop]

I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially In 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $350k of my savings in stocks against next year. Hope to make millions in 2024
