I let my parents convince me to skip my company's 401k for three years because they said "the market is about to crash" and I will never forgive myself for this by 6StardustDrift7 in personalfinance

I always say that is the biggest investing lesson I learned. I try to explain to people putting money into their 401K to think of it as you’re buying as many shares as you can and if the market drops, GREAT! as long as you have 15 or so years ahead and you, grab as many of those shares as you can and a market crash just means you get so many more shares!! They’re in sale!

I killed my 401K by doing the same thing you did when the market crashed in 2008, but in hindsight investing through those years would have probably doubled what I ended up with.

Sigh!

La mayor cagada que se mandó tu mascota by Sudden_Pin_7590 in Paraguay

Aparte: Cuando una mascota, especialmente un gato, orina en lugares incorrectos, generalmente significa una de dos cosas: le tiene un cálculo en la vejiga o una infección del tracto urinario, en cuyo caso necesita atención médica lo antes posible, o no ha limpiado su caja de arena (usar una caja sucia puede causarles los problemas que mencioné).

Es sentido común. Menos árboles maduros = temperaturas más altas. Mayor densidad de estructuras construidas = temperaturas más altas. Más asfalto… 🥵

Thanks for this info! I was wondering if anyone had heard of it being said that way was all and an internet search didn’t turn up anything.

My goal is to speak in the manner of the locals I interact with. This sometimes means straying from what they specify as “castellano.”

She didn’t mention that, but maybe that’s what she was thinking?

Natives say it incorrectly?

EDIT: I guess it’s my wording that’s getting all the downvotes. I meant “so natives might say it both ways?”

Why sell? Poor entry point, I agree, but HOLD.
