I just switched up my Roth IRA to 50% SCHD, 25% SCHX, 25% SCHG, and my Roth 401k is 70% vanguard S&P 500 index, 20% vanguard growth index, and 10% vanguard international index. Seeking best possible ways to grow $350k into $1m+ before retirement, I'm 55.

I'm an amateur with a portfolio of 40k but it's hard for me to build confidence. I really want to hit the 100k mark soon. I want to invest another 20k over a one month span, but I want to be strategic about doing it so I can grow more and not stay stagnant. Any stock suggestions?

Net worth truly snowballs after $100k! Keep investing regularly and you'll be blown away how much it can change in a few short years. Here's to $1 million and to FIRE!

I just saved up $100, 000 this last quarter, and i plan to invest in the stock market and maybe around 10% in bitcoin

here is obviously a compounding effect in the very long term for large capital, but is not "automatic", and with the wrong strategies you can even lose more than you have.I'm still looking for companies to make additions to my $350K portfolio, to boost performance. Here for ideas...

The financial crisis is primarily the fault of the Federal Reserve, which gains indirectly from bank failures, bank-owned real estate, and even more affordable cars. Production cannot be printed, but printing credit is acceptable as long as it is printed. Is that right or wrong?

[avaisabella-nb]

As an investment enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. I do have a significant amount of capital that is required to start up but I have no idea what strategies and direction I need to approach to help me make decent returns

I recently started my own investment too with a portfolio of 70k but it's hard for me to build confidence. I want to invest another 70k over a one month span, but I want to be strategic about doing it so I can grow more and not stay stagnant. Any stock suggestions?

[NicolaPellegrini]

It's a common misconception that when a stock you buy skyrockets, the smart thing to do is sell it (or at least sell some of it) to lock in your profits. But the context matters. If the stock has increased sharply because the business is performing exceptionally well, it could still be a bargain.

My expectation for 2024 is that markets starts to broaden out more, with the rates cut i have a couple of questions....can I safely invest $220k in the markets? What should I do differently?

[Emily-leop]

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

I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

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

Market highs can sometimes be followed by corrections, but predicting the timing and extent of it is challenging. I've heard some analysts talk about a 'massive' correction. It makes me wonder if it's time to adjust my $2M portfolios or maybe even consider some defensive investments.

Awesome, George! You just told the story of my life. At 26 I had ZERO $ to my name. I flipped the switch at 27. Just passed 2 mil in my 50’s. Compound interest is indeed a wonder!

Nice content! Few years back I was assistant to a wealthy pen artist and within the short period I worked with him I observed that he had quite a chunk of investment everywhere, stocks, crypto, dividend investing to name a few, so he had revenues coming in from all angles. And in a year his worth doubled. With this I learned that the rich stay rich by investing.

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 within months, I'm really just confused at this point.

[FrankPatrick-nozo]

Then, should those of us who are over 50 but have less than a million worry? I worry that I'm getting close to retirement because I only have $500k in my Roth and I have no idea how to build it.

[tonysilke]

I want a balanced portfolio with growth investments, safe investments, and also focus on dividends to gain up to $20K monthly, my concern is picking the right stocks that can survive a recession. How do i go about this ?
