    INVESTING 
    Have excess money? Not sure where to invest it? Here's something to think about... Also, I do recommend skipping to "Invest $ Into Passive Investments" with a tiny amount, just to get a taste of paycheck pot income early, even if it is only $10/mo. I thought we had a thread on this, but...

    Do you know what you’re doing with your money?

    INVESTING 
    This past year I’ve started playing pickleball and have met all new people of various age groups. I’m making this post because I’m somewhat amazed at how little younger people understand money and finances. I’m talking about 30-40 year olds. As an example I met this guy who makes a decent $50k...

    The Escape Number Problem

    QUESTION

Now, 40% of my business system target contributes to my money system which is around $84,000 / month. The problem is that it would take me 11.5 years (including 5% yearly interest) to reach...

    INVESTING

    investing in the stock market does not seem right

    INVESTING 
    So after building a business that makes 50k in gross revenue on average a month (last month 10-20k more), I decided to put around 100k in the stock market. Almost a month later, after realizing how slow this money will grow, I cannot but feel this whole thing is a "scam". Or said better, my...

    240 is a magical number that can print money for you for a lifetime. Or you can ignore it and lose a fortune

    MINDSET 
    Awhile ago there was a garbageman who had worked in this profession for several years. I don't remember his name so I'll make one up: his name was Dave. Dave loved playing the lottery on occasion and actually ended up winning $15m. For the sake of argument, we'll assume he took home $7.5m after...

    I have $X thousands to invest, what do I do? What book do I read?

    This is relevant to every discussion on this forum related to investing a small dollar amount... $1000, $10000, and even $50,000. Learning "investing" at this stage of your progress is an EPIC WASTE OF TIME. For the love of God, stop reading books on how to invest $10K so you can turn it into...
