As an investment enthusiast, I often wonder how top-level investors are able to become millionaires through investing. I have a significant amount of capital to start with, but I'm unsure about the strategies and direct I should take to help me generate substantial profits like some people are this season.

I've always been fascinated by investing, but when I tried stock investing early this year, it hasn't been as successful as I expected. However, I keep seeing good news about the stock market. Any recommendation will be much appreciated.

[Raniyanhunter]

I believe investors should always put their cash to work, especially now that we're in 2025, as we'll start to see more market diversification. Given the recent performance of stocks, it's safe to say that the stock market is the smartest investment option available. I hope others agree.

I think the stock market will do well in towards the end of 2025, so I'm thinking of putting $220, 000 into stocks for my retirement. Any advice on doing this safely? Also, any important tips for the current financial situation?

I sold 350k in stocks over the last 5 months. I am 63 and am tapping out. Looking for less stress, I am ok with 4.6 4.8 % guaranteed bonds. good luck to you all.

Beginning 2025, I think we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $300, 000 from a recent home sale into the financial markets, but I'm still not sure how rates will effect the market just yet, which worries me a lot. Like how long will the bull rally last before the reset?.

[richardhudson]

I'm not kidding when I say that the market crash and high inflation have me really stressed out and worried about retirement. I've been in the red for a while now and although people say these crisis has it perks, I'm losing my mind but I get it Investing is a long-term game, so focus on the long run.

I used to think it was just about buying stocks, but I didn’t realize there are strategies for managing risk and actually making a profit. Now I feel kind of stuck since I’m not seeing any profits in my portfolio. Do you have any recommendations on what I should consider? I’d really appreciate it

I’m up 19% since the beginning of the year and 42% last year… what am I missing here?

[robrol]

Nvda going up crazy and we're in a bear market, come on Jim !!!

[ball-is-life]

Tech is doing great, propping up the market…for now.

[Peekul]

I can't believe this old guy still has a job 😅 he's been doing this for like 40 years. He made such terrible calls during the housing crisis, I thought he was done for sure.

[koolHaloclips]

The more fearful people get, the more skeptical I am.

[RealAmericaJohnCarreras]

I stopped watching Squid Games the second they pulled out the transmission.

[Wowsers]

What's the ai stock he was talking about?

[harrychu]

The decline is caused by zero day options that became a huge problem under Bideonomic where the SEC focused on mean tweets and crippling BTC.

We have a tail wagg the dog effect in markets now.

[PedestrianPony]

Why would I buy consumer staples when speculative tech stocks are giving me 5% and 10% single day gains? Nobody is going to diversify until the tech bubble pops.
