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

Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man without investment and I'll tell you how long it takes to go bankrupt. Investing creates a safe haven for the future.

*“The consumers basically have more money in their accounts by multiples than they did pre-pandemic, ” the Bank of America chief added. “They’re earning more money. Their credit quality is as high as it’s ever been. They have more excess capacity and investing with BFI". Ms Vanessa Saint.*

Our government is putting so many families in difficult situations, you have helped me and my family so much, Ms Sarai, imagine investing $1, 000 and receiving $5, 200 in a few days.

The best way to invest in real estate right now is investing in REITS, other than that, I prefer investing in stocks, cryptocurrencies, and I stay away from precious metals.

Everyone waited for Amazon to create AMZ62M and the time is rdy

Year-over-year inflation stood at 6.5% in December 2022—the lowest that figure has been in more than a year. Inflation was in line with what economists expected and gave many of them a reason to believe that the peak of inflation may be behind us. I have approximately $150k stagnant in my port_folio that needs growth. What is the best way to take advantage of this downturn?

Considering purchasing a new home this fall? Start with our home affordability calculator of investment with BFI.This calculator can help you better understand how much home you can afford. Ms Vanessa Saint.

In the current economic climate, a home is not the best investment. I've already sold my Boca Grande area home, but I want to invest roughly $200, 000 in stocks since I've heard that even in challenging times, investors may turn a profit. Any excellent ideas for stocks?

[flossietaylor]

I wonder how many recent buyers have over leveraged their finances to make a purchase anticipating a quick resale and profit. Will this lead to a series of bankruptcies if we slide into a recession next year, as some analysts are predicting.

Reasons:
3:35 Property management consumes time unlike investing in stock
3:59 Property might not be rented but you're still obliged to pay the mortgage
4:02 Maintenance cost
4:59 Difficult to find great deal in the real-estate market (lower than its cost) unlike investing start up businesses or stock market (during crashes)
8:11 There is more money in the Stock market ($93 Tr) than Real-state sector ($3.7 Tr)

Well this video explains why he likes stocks better, because he is cash rich, he doesn't need a loan like us little people. That's why for us little people, real estate makes more sense, can put a small down payment and get the house, get the tenant to pay off the mortgage, and when prices go up you bank, I've done well.

[biyuwang]

I find this very interesting. As one with not much cash and given the present economy, is it better to invest into gold or Stocks. Which would yield better output. Considering a young mid income, short term person living in the US with less time on my hands?

[amirfahad]

I want to invest in both stocks and real estate, and I have $250K set aside to go toward stocks with the hope that I'll make enough money to do so within a year. However, the present market volatility continues holding me back. Do you have any advice for me?

[jenikoly]

This week is hell and a bloodbath can happen but why we don't discuss the fact that Amazon also released their AMZ62M in it? Always two sides of a coin

[loretagurakuqi]

Awesome! your potential seems limitless. I'm fascinated with investing but being a single mother and juggling all these things are quite difficult. How best can I start and what sector to engage in?

[dremunoz]

For the average person your best bet is in fact buying a home, homes almost always appreciates over time. For first time investors the stock market is VERY volatile to say the least. By the time we get the "scoop" it's already too late because big money from institutions already bought in. Warren Buffet and his kind live and breath stocks so they are successful. The majority of retail investors are following what everyone else is doing without reading the fundamentals. For the real savvy stock investor all they do is research the company / growth / earnings and then read a bit more. The Warren Buffets of the world don't need to invest in real estate because they move markets worth billions.

Agree with most parts. I am hesitant to get into real estate business, which would be a side hustle for me. I feel I can make more but using my current skills at my first job and continue to invest in REITS and VTI as an investment. Thanks for the video!

[doordiariesre]

I really enjoyed your perspective on this topic. Have you considered doing a follow-up video with a different viewpoint?

[Meaty]

Great quality video. but i would like to point out that Berkshire has an entire subsidiary devoted to real estate named Berkshire Hathaway Home Services. They're mostly brokers but it is berkshires real estate arm.
