Liberals getting completely bent out of shape if you don’t use the right words or terms to refer to them
I dub thee: Little removed removed removed, Lady of removed snowflake removed.
And if you don’t like it, that’s your fault for having a personal identify that doesn’t align with how I perceive you.
If [things], you can do better than the market more often than not.
This is not true for 90+% of people who attempt it.
If you were born with an extra luck-bone, go for it. If not, $VOO and turning your brain off is a superior strategy.
…VGT…
I said 50+ years.
This is the best, most consistent strategy for the past 50+ years:
Step 1: Open an account. If you have a 401k, you already have a retirement account, probably with Fidelity. If you don’t have a 401k, Fidelity is still a fine choice. You could also choose Schwab or Vanguard. Don’t overthink it, though, because it doesn’t really matter.
Step 2: Put everything into $VOO.* Every time you get a paycheck, put some of it into your account and buy more $VOO.
Step 3: Don’t touch it. Don’t. I know you want to. I know you want to look at that number. Don’t. Don’t do it. I know you heard about trading options somewhere and you saw the posts of people who turned $10k into $10 million. That’s not going to happen. Don’t touch the money. Leave it alone.
Step 4: When you have enough money to live comfortably for the rest of your life, start selling it to buy bonds.
*Everything else you do might get more money, but it is worse on average. For example, you might be feeling smart, and decide that all these big tech stocks are overvalued. So you’ll buy $RWL instead. That might get more money, but it probably won’t. If you insist on doing something fancy, at least put most of your money in $VOO.
I understand that I’m not the target audience of this meme, but I’m confused. Isn’t it an option to simply eat dinner?
Alternatively… to simply be hungry for an hour or three?
I thought the defining feature of “Souls-like” games was more about the difficulty of said hacking and slashing, and heavy punishment for mistakes.
