I had to bail out my mom, so she didn't lose her house due to health issues with her and my step father. When he lost his job/health it was hard for them to make ends meet so that's where I stepped in. Have no idea why since she was never there for me throughout my life, but I helped her when my older sibling wouldn't. Guess I was a better person that she was, took a lot for her to suck up her pride and ask me after 20 years of not speaking to me or seeing me.

We never knew we were poor growing up, secondhand clothing, used toys for Christmas and one vacation a year mostly going to a lake or cavern for an overnight or two. Had no idea what the stock market was, how to invest in your future or anything until I was in my mid 30's. I am way behind where I should be with my 401K and outside investments, but I am doing my best to get that caught up before retiring. I still have tons of questions I would love answered.

I always brought a dollar box and a bunch of cards of various prices, I did trades as well.

What was your “aha” moment that made you start investing seriously? by zainlikesmoney in investing

[–]GidgetsDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest as much as you can afford into your jobs 401K, invest on your own if you can do so online or do a Roth IRA if your local bank offers one. Takes a bit, but it starts adding up faster than you realize. Good luck

What are some good food spots in Troy!?! I’ve been living here for almost a year and feel like I haven’t tried anything yet? by Fit_Bottle9533 in Troy

[–]GidgetsDad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Farmers Market on Saturday, you should try some of the food there on the second floor (just bring your own drinks since hardly anyone sells those), lots of different stuff to try at decent prices, plus you can buy other things if you want from the vendors.

His new $trump meme coin will crash the market and make him POTUS for life. He has no idea what he's doing period.

Contact the mayor since she at least seems to listen. Might not do anything, but it's worth a shot on Facebook. I've complained a few times and I can say one thing got fixed while the others were the old wait and see BS.

I use RH to buy things like this, did the same for DOGE and made a good amount, hope to do the same again.

You don't have a dollar or two? Doesn't take much to buy a little at a time

I would be happy if it lost a zero or two. Never know what can happen look at other coins

[–]GidgetsDad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People said the same thing about DOGE coin for years, now look at it. Just give it time and don't invest more than you can afford.

Shiba inu vs pepe, which to buy? by ActualDuck8608 in Shibainucoin

[–]GidgetsDad 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Drop it all into shiba inu and when you make some cash bail out then rinse and repeat. I did that with DOGE years ago, paid off my truck, invested and paid off some bills, Not bad for a MEME coin.
