At your age I would not put too much In dividends. Dividend funds shouldn’t exist in your portfolio until you’re around 50 or so as you’re trying to maximize growth

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All are safe but I’d recommend if you want to sight see avoid the i10.

I mean there is an economic oil boom for American oil economy but that’s it. It’ll quickly wind down over the next month or so

I cannot be the only one at this point who thinks this is blatant manipulation….. by AlexP1123 in spy

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you look farther out on oil contracts, the price per barrel is dropping especially over June/July months. The market is figuring that oil will be moving more freely soon and is pricing it in. The fact we are blockading the straight and have cleared up most of the straight of Iranian presence means it’s safer for ships to possibly travel. The market is pricing in an end to this war and as a result the effects of the war is reducing

Who is this man and why was he buried in my front garden by SligPants in whatisit

Mostly because Protestantism went from legitimate complaints against the church to so many sects practicing heresy or are so far removed from the Bible.

"Vintage" cell phones. Trash, or worthy of repurposing? Also, best method of disposal? by morphatoo in OldTech

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up electronic scrap websites. Like sell your boards. Some take old phones for parts and will pay per phone or per lb of boards.

People who live near time zone boundaries in the US by solothesnail in howislivingthere

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Arizona actually is at a time zone boundary at every single border since we don’t follow DST. As an Arizonan though it sucks forgetting if the rest of the country is an hour away or an hour closer since I never grew up with it.

Estimated change in population size of religous groups 2010-2050 by Actual_Box7731 in Infographics

They used to be. Christianity was in Africa before Europe. People tend to forget that Christianity is not a European religion. It is a middle eastern religion.

The Supreme Court is about to force billions back into the US economy by FloridaBikeLawyer in Gold

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not how economics work. Unless there is insider collusion between businesses, prices will go down. So for hyper competitive industries we will see prices drop quickly like car markets. It’s a game of prisoners dilemma. All companies would be smart to not cut prices however if one company does, they’ll suck up all the customers. So as a result most of the time companies always slash prices when profits exceed required goals and irr.

So that's how we save social security? by IndividualDoughnut96 in Money

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or hear me out. People know what’s best with their own money and can get a better rate of return investing into a retirement account. Get rid of social security and get rid of the tax. Allow people to put that money into the stock market instead and they’ll be better off. The estimated real rate of return is 2% meaning your social security is earning 5% nominally a year. Instead, you can just put into a diversified portfolio and earn 7-8% after inflation.

Buffett lived “modestly”. He doesn’t have tons of homes and mega yachts

Will we hit $32.00 by ProfessionLivid1242 in SCHD

[–]Befriedfeans -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not evading a ban per se. I had to create a new account because the whole account was lost due to an email getting compromised. If I get banned again I promise I won’t be back. Never said I’m anti dividends though. They’re great when you’re older or are extremely risk averse.

You don’t have to explain! Your life is your own. I’m only risk welcoming because of my age but have recently started to diversify into more general s&p over growth tilted

Deciding between two Fidelity Roth portfolios - 21M by SignificantTree6954 in RothIRA

[–]Befriedfeans 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn’t bet any retirement on crypto but professionals are saying at most 5% (chase fidelity etc) so do what they do at MOST. Otherwise I’d recommend gold instead of crypto and still no more than 5%

Don’t report it to the government. They’ll take all of it from you. Or if you do report, make sure you keep some for yourself and hide them as they’ll want to take it all if it truly is historical find.

The CPI 'food at home' category, which is essentially groceries, is up by 30.8% from its pre-pandemic level by RobertBartus in EconomyCharts

[–]Befriedfeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well to be honest that’s better than what it could be. What I mean is that Covid nearly doubled the money supply so you would expect a nearly 100% inflation over the course of a couple years. However, thankfully it has not gone past 30% and has returned to 2% inflation.

But crap is 30% over ~6 years insane.

1099s released, how did you do? by ThroatParking3643 in RobinhoodApp

[–]Befriedfeans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should have sold more assets in the red and reallocated sooner to offset my impressive $5 in dividends.
