    I need a mentor ASAP

    INVESTING 
    Stop following "tons of people". Pick one and follow that one. If you want to invest, answer yourself a question - WHY? Why do you want to invest? (to make money is not an answer, everybody wants to make money) How do you want to achieve that goal (satisfy that WHY)? By having questions like...

    Any Hedgeye subscribers here?

    INVESTING 
    I have not subscribed to their service, but I followed their posts and views. To me, it is not worth it subscribing. You can do well with your own investing plan. Decide what you want to achieve, pick 50 - 60 stocks which fit your plan, follow them, read about them, have awareness about their...

    Where do you keep your money in the current environment to at least maintain value?

    INVESTING 
    I save some cash in ultrashort bonds ETFs for example ICSH, BIL, SCHO, etc. It holds value and pays a 1.4% - 2% dividend, better than a savings account.

    7 year plan

    INVESTING 
    I understand, but I generate money in any market, so if the market goes south, I still generate cash, so my thinking was, if I lose a job, my investments will pay for the mortgage. In fact, I had this issue now with COVID, even at an executive level, I was furloughed by the company owner (and...

    7 year plan

    INVESTING 
    Well, I refinanced my mortgage recently to a lower rate which saved me $400 monthly. But my investments make me between 20% - 45% annual income on invested capital, unfortunately, my invested capital is small to live off of it, so I would rather invest all the free money towards trading than...

    7 year plan

    INVESTING 
    I did the same. At some point, I got into $83,000+ credit card debt. Some were medical bills I paid using the cards but most of it was just plain stupidity saying to myself that with my income I could always pay it off until I found myself in a situation of not being able to pay even minimum...

    Should I invest in stock market if I am trying to start a fastlane business?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    People like you think that the stock market is to buy a mutual fund, or index, or even individual stocks and then hope that 50 years later they may make money. Not my case.

    I am a mechanical engineer by profession. I liked the job when I was on a learning curve. I still do like it - sort of. But, lately, I experienced too many people who hire you for your expertise and help, and then do not listen to you, blame you for their own stupid decisions, blame you for...

    Should I invest in stock market if I am trying to start a fastlane business?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    You are looking at the market from a lame perspective. How can you claim someone being 100% wrong and not even knowing what the current average annual market returns are and just throwing some numbers around? If you actively manage your investments, your returns can be a lot larger. Mine are in...

    Should I invest in stock market if I am trying to start a fastlane business?

    HOT! MINDSET 
    It depends. Are you planning to use a stock market as a wealth-building vehicle? Be active in managing the positions? Build a trading plan and execute it mercilessly? Monetize your positions? Or just plainly invest in a mutual fund or index fund (buy and hope)? If active management, yes. I have...
