If you don't know where to start investing, buy an Index Fund that tracks the S&P 500. My personal favorite is VOO.
(Historically earns 10% per year on average)
Robinhood is giving...
3% match on Roth IRA contributions
1% match on taxable contributions
3% cash back credit card
5% APY on cash
All for $5 per month and people still don't use Robinhood?
VOO hit over $500 today. Currently sitting at almost 16% ROI for the year. Stop putting money into a savings account and instead, park it into VOO or other funds that track the S&P 500.
People will drop $1,200 on concert & football tickets, plane tickets, & the latest iPhone…
But complain they don’t have $100 / month to invest in low cost index funds.
Make it make sense…
Here’s a simple 3 Fund Roth IRA Portfolio:
1. QQQM-exposure to technology and non-financial companies.
2. VOO-tracks the S&P 500, providing exposure to a broad range of large-cap U.S. stocks.
3. SCHD-tracks high-dividend U.S. stocks.
Would you add or remove anything?
$50 a month in dividends pays your phone bill
$250 a month in dividends pays your gas
$500 a month in dividends pays your car payment
$2,500 a month in dividends pays your mortgage
$5,000 a month in dividends makes you work optional
Dividends are king
@MrZackMorris Buddy of mine recommended your picks. I lost $4600 within a week. Lesson learned. Do your own due diligence and don’t buy a stock just because a guy on twitter saids so.
A 50% gain on $10,000 is $5,000.
A 5% gain on $1,000,000 is $50,000.
The more you invest, the less risk you need to take.
As important as gains are, minimizing risk is more important.
I typically do a 360 method. The cash flow I make from real estate gets invested into the stock market #VOO or keep the cash in a bank that pays you 5.25% interest. Then when I find the next cash flowing asset, I sell stock to purchase another cash flow.
Repeat, Repeat, Repeat.
@WasteManagement also removed one of the bags of trash from my trash can and left it on the side of the road with the other 5 bags of trash. Leaving a total of 6 bags of trash at the end of my driveway. Remind me again of why I pay y’all? Take my trash to the dump?
