New rule for money going into 2021
Any time I want to buy something, I must invest the cost of that into the market too.
Let's say I buy sneakers that costs $160, I also have to invest $160 into the market.
If I can't afford both payments, I can't afford the sneakers
The two most important actions you can take to improve your credit score ๐
1. Pay bills off on time
2. Take your limit and multiply it by 30%. Don't carry a balance of more than this unless you absolutely have to.
The ROI of having a savings account you can live off of while you lost your job is immeasurable
The ROI of a savings account that lets you pivot from a job you hate to one you love is immeasurable
The ROI of having a savings account that frees you from worry is immeasurable
Building a savings account is equally important as building an investment portfolio.
"But your money earns nothing in the bank and loses purchasing power because of inflation"
That's true but ๐
In your 20s do everything.
In your 30s do one thing well.
In your 40s, monetize that one thing exclusively.
In your 50s....hmmm
I will tell you what to do in your 50s when I get there.
Timing the market is impossible. The best you can do is buy stocks when they dip to an entry point you feel comfortable with.
Can it fall more after? Of course. Do you know it will? Nobody does.
Had a friend text me this morning saying "Man we shoulda waited on (a certain stock)"
Because it fell more than when we bought it last week. My response was ๐
Point being, there was a time where stocks had ups and downs and I was oblivious to it all. Missing out
And right now, there are people in the same scenario. Not even aware of what's happening in the market
Being so wrapped up with the market (more awareness and learning than not)
VS
A time where I knew nothing about stocks and never looked at anything stock related
is a mind blowing feeling
How to stay disciplined when the market is falling ๐
- Understand that without red days, you can't have green๐๐
- Realize that stocks are on sale giving you a buying opportunity๐ต
- Focus on the long term โณ
- Don't constantly check prices ๐ท
