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.

Kept $105k in CIT Bank HYSA at 5.05% but i now plan to invest in the stock market. What are your thoughts on that? What stocks should I look out for as a newbie to safely grow my money?

[MattDouglas-hjwh]

It was suggested that, with inflation at a four-decade high, now is the best time ever for a financial breakthrough. In my portfolio, I have roughly $250k that needs to grow because it's stagnating. What is the best way to profit from this downturn?

Great video! I really do have a question. For someone with less than $300, 000 to invest, how would you recommend we enter the market? I am looking at studying some traders and copying their strategy rather than investing myself and losing money emotionally. What’s your take on this approach?

[RichardMoore-jgtl]

As an investing enthusiast, I've kept asides a good sum of capital to invest for financial independence and early retirement, but my concern right now is the market rally being a propaganda. Is this really a good time to buy stocks, or do I wait for crash?

I am regretting not investing in stocks last year but still grateful i kept my money. I'm hoping to retire this year Sep at 55 on my birthday. Considering the current rollercoaster nature of the stock market was the mean reason i decided to stay on the sideline for awhile, now I’m worried with the numerous bank failures as of late, am I better off reinvesting my savings in the stock market or do I wait?

When someone says "passive income" you know that they have never owned a rental property

If he's not close to retirement why not invest that 200k in an account and then double your payments towards house..the math says let that 200k compound now instead of pay house off with it which will eventually be paid off when he retires anyway

I aim to reallocate my $2 million portfolio. What's the most effective strategy to hedge my portfolio and generate profits?

[ianmowbray]

Why do people say that they are dept free and then say they have a massive mortgage? They are delusional 😮

[wilddata]

Putting that much money in a stock market is very scary for me. Today I’d rather have these $200k in a 4.5% savings account than in the stock market. There’s so much instability right now with Ukraine, Taiwan, Middle East, Covid still mutating, etc… It’s just too risky.

No way I'm paying back my 3% loan early! Heck, you can make 5% right now with money just siting in a savings account. If I put all the money toward paying my house 12 years back I would have not been able to buy half dozen+ rental properties that have quadrupled in value, and cash flow like crazy. The cash flow pays my mortgage payment++ now. The primary mortgage rate is less than inflation. Thank you banks! Dave caters to the masses that can't work with money properly....which is good advice for most.

When he said "passive income" you could see Dave had to really bite his tongue haha

Paid off my house at 53. My wife and I have been able to stack cash, take care of large home projects, be crazy generous when our kids got married, and now sleep even better knowing we will retire on time. Stay out of debt and pay it all off asap. Too many living with mortgages they can afford.

Pay off 3% mortgage, no thanks. Thats cheap borrowing for 30 years, inflation hedged. Invest excess in S&P500 ETF every week, average returns 15% yearly over 5, 10, 20 year period. You can be double millionaire😊

[Shultz]

Hi Dave, Will this approach also work for a new investor with about 250k or more hoping to create a start up portfolio? Please how would you advice they go about it? It's all reliable advice that I'm searching for.

[resplendentToad]

Im actually starting to understand ramsey. If you are going to invest $200k based on a short radio segment, maybe 2 min phone call, then you ARE the type of person getting RE ideas from tiktok and WOULD be better off being conservative.

Currently investing 80% in dividend stock paying 9%, 15% in money market fund at 5.38% and 5% in stocks.

There may be pullbacks in the markets this year, which are normal. But the overall market will go up throughout the year. I think we'll see more market diversification. Already looking to invest about $430k of my savings in stocks this year. 2024 is the year I make millions

What do you do if you only have mortgage payment, but want to build/buy a bigger home for your family?
