No matter what your investing goals, you'll find a portfolio in this video that will help you reach it.

My target retirement fund in my 401(k) had poor returns compared to the S&P 500. I switched everything to the S&P 500, but I regret not doing it earlier. What are the best options for investing $200k for reliable cash flow?

Holding XAI39E and SHIB tight, we def gonna hit that 15x soon. FOMO is real!

I have missed out on a lot of money not being decisive enough, but part of my new year resolution is to act different, perhaps utilize an advisor? my goal is achieving a 7-figure portfolio and I’ve set asides 250k for this.

investing after a rate cut can be good because it usually boosts economic growth, leading to higher corporate profits and stock prices. Plus, lower rates can make stocks more appealing compared to fixed-income investments. Analysts are wrong and I truly hope other investors realizes this..

I've just begun learning about value investing, and I've found that many good stocks are undervalued despite their intrinsic value. If you had $200, 000 to create a strong investment portfolio, which stocks would you choose for better returns?

Another great one Joe! Thank you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for the video. You have mentioned SOFI as being overvalued, but what about HOOD?

[AylinYaprak]

I see XAI303K moving right along side all the Alt's you mentioned! Plus I see all the Alt's plus XAI303K moving in lock step in the charts! My point is XAI303K is cheap! Retail likes buying cheap! Especially when that cheap item is on the verge of becoming expensive

[GUSSpalding]

I love how you broke down the XAI105e project in your video! Can’t wait to see it skyrocket!

[9:03] The link between data centers and utilities like Black Hills is so fascinating. With the rise of AI and cloud computing, it’s interesting to think about how utilities are becoming a growth sector in disguise.

I'm 55 and approaching retirement. Having avoided stocks since the pandemic, I want to give it another go. I am considering a 70/30 stock : bond ratio with $800k received from sales of my Bel-Air properties. What stocks do you think have the best chance to 10x in 5 years?

[stephencochran-jw]

Well it's not anything great but I'm almost bill free plus $$ above to help others.

[MomaBaghdasaryan]

Thanks for this video! I have USDT in my Bitget Wallet and this phrase (torch zoo wild bar chunk jewel change lamp park end memory swallow). Any advice on how to withdraw them correctly?

I've always been fascinated by investing, but when I tried stock investing last year, it hasn't been as successful as I expected. However, I keep seeing good news about the stock market. What are the best strategies for less risk and more gains?
