    Just need to vent a second. Sometimes internal sh-- goes on at my work that makes me want to quit on the spot and burn every bridge I have. I can't tell you how many times I've said, "F this" but there isn't much I can do. Someone wants to bitch and moan about something, someone holding a...

    How is this? I've had it digital for awhile but never read it. Your post made go to ChatGPT and have it summarize the first chapter and now I want to read the whole book. I leave it on my computer and read a few paragraphs at a time.

    BUYING BOOMER BUSINESSES

    IDEA 
    I don't have a specific business that I'm looking at but I know it's not necessarily recommended to go straight to bizbuysell or something like that. Buy Then Build (the book) says that is like the last effort for brokers to throw something online that isn't selling to their contacts and...

    BUYING BOOMER BUSINESSES

    IDEA 
    @Jaywalker Hello. Could you explain a little more regarding your search for these businesses, where you're looking, what you're looking for, etc.? I've been interested in the "Buy Then Build" process. I'm not exactly at the phase of contacting brokers or banks, but was curious to see what I...

    I have TOS also that I had with TD Ameritrade and now Schwab. I don't use it for trading, though. I was poking around on the platform but not sure where you're getting it. Would you be able to point me in the right direction to see stuff like that NVDA trade?

    Where do you see something like that? I'm kind of disappointed that I didn't take advantage of a situation like this where the market might dump over the tariffs -- like buying Puts or something. This whole event got me thinking about opening a High Yield Savings Account for my emergency fund...

    Passive Monthly / Quarterly Income: My Favorite Money System Assets...

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    In any investment I've had, I always reinvested the dividends. Until the Millionaire Fastlane, I never thought of dividends like a paycheck. The money put into QQQI is money that had already been allocated into my Schwab account so I haven't put any new money into it yet. To document the...

    Passive Monthly / Quarterly Income: My Favorite Money System Assets...

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I was waiting for the end of this past week since the QQQI dividends were paid out. My first month of QQQI dividends ended up being a total of $105.61. It was reinvested to buy 2.2103 shares of QQQI. With the market dropping all week, I'm down $225.94 on the investment so it's a net negative...

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I jumped in today. I sold some investments that I felt I didn't need anymore so that I didn't have to commit any new money to my investment account. I'm starting with QQQI and estimate that I'll receive around $110 per month. I'm starting off with the dividends being reinvested while I...

    That makes sense. I've been thinking about this paycheck pot for awhile, building up an account with dividends. I don't have a business right now so I've been holding off tying up any money.

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    You can still have access to margin but not use it. Just don't invest/trade more than your cash balance. The 14.37% on QQQI is the dividend yield or distribution yield. It's a reflection of the dividend compared to the stock price. It's calculated by taking the total yearly dividends and...

    Passive Monthly / Quarterly Income: My Favorite Money System Assets...

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    I was looking at setting up an initial investment to test it since the dividend yield is so high. A relatively less amount of money could generate a larger amount of dividends. This would essentially start a paycheck pot to pay an expense or to create passive income to generate other income...

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    These have very high yields. What is the downside to investing in something like TSLY or NVDY? I'm looking at the yield to build out a dividend strategy, but what is something else to consider? It looks like the dividends fall with the decline in the price, but what else am I missing?

    GOLD! INVESTING 
    The quick math to figuring out how much money you would need for these investments. Say you want to invest in QQQI, which is sitting at 14.37% and you want $50 a month. $50 x 12 = $600 per year. $600 / .1437 = $4,175 So you need to invest $4,175 into QQQI, which is roughly 85 shares to pay...

    Investing Without A Valuation Calculation

    INVESTING 
    There is probably a way to look at the financials of a company and determine if they are under or overvalued compared to their intrinsic value. A thought experiment I do quite a bit is to look at things at the extreme. For example: If a company only makes $100 in net income per year but their...

    I don't exactly know who he is but I think I tracked it down. Looks like trial for him starts on Oct 28. The other male was just sentenced to 24 years. The female won't be formally sentenced until November but is looking at 30 years. Is that about on the right track or is it a completely...

    You'd be surprised what goes on when nobody is looking. People walk down the street pulling on car door handles until they find one that is unlocked. Quickly get in and steal whatever they can find - money, electronics, guns. I would bet anyone here who lives in a suburb or near a city and...
