When did you start investing with some big bucks?

[JNagtegaal]

Hi guys (and ladies),

I’ve been wondering about this for some time, investing and making some passive income all seems like fun. But it’s clear that this only truly works when you invest some big chunks of money. So my question is:

At what amount of income/net worth did you start investing seriously, what were your first big investments and how did these work out?

I’m interested to see if you guys slowly built your investment portfolio or maybe after selling a business you went “all in”? I buy some stocks and crypto here and there but that’s more gambling than serious investing.

I want to make clear that i’m just interested in the stories and will not take it as advice.

Pretty sure people invest different amounts of money depending on their wanted lifestyle, TMF mentions it at some point, and Unscripted does a little segment about it near the end of the book.

It’s never to little to start.

When you get a little taste of it, it’s easier to execute.

When I saw I could make free money as a kid, that’s when I became hooked.

$1000 makes $50 in passive income.
$1,000,000 makes $5k.

It truly feels like winning money every month.
