13 years ago I was a broke college student. Now... I'm an engineer with a $1.1 M net worth. Don't be scared of the market.

Try this. Put your 2% raise into index funds instead of spending it. Watch Your Net Worth 🚀🚀🚀

I have a friend who is 40 and damn near a billionaire. I asked him what his one key to investing well is... here's what he told me:
600

Would you rather dump 100k into the market next year or have a guaranteed 4.5% return ona 1 year CD. What are the odds the market yields higher than 4.5% next year?

Depends on major expenses planned in the next 2 years. My spending is pretty stable. So, I’ll go with total stock market.

You never know what the market’s going to do. June 15… the S&P 500 gained 1.5% June 28… the S&P 500 dropped 2%. Today… the S&P 500 gained 2.6%. Ignore the noise and buy shares every pay day.

The advisors hating on index funds are mad they missed an opportunity for 3% commission.

Somebody has to plant the seed, so the the next generation can do better.

If you don't come from money, understand it'll likely take you 10-20 years of focused work/investing to become a millionaire Many don't make it because they don't want to be the one to "sacrifice" their years for the family unit Takes a different mother f'er to be the first

When you make enough money, time becomes the new currency.

The S&P 500 grew by 14.8% annually from 2012 to 2021. During that time we had… - 5 market corrections - 1 bear market Volatility is just part of the process.

No wonder we’re obsessed with early retirement and remote work.
Replying to @cFIREsim
Yup. Now that I think about it… I overthought the taxes. That’s what I get for multitasking. Amounts should be the same both ways.

1150 was assuming you had a capital gain.
Replying to @cFIREsim
Im not suggesting you withdraw the funds. Im suggesting you re-allocate. If you sell $1000 in VTSAX taxable… Sell $1150 in bonds tax-advantaged and buy back VTSAX. That way you make up for capital gains. And keep your stock allocation the same.
