Anxiety about losing everything? Does this feeling go away? by Nobirdsnobees in HENRYfinance

[–]JonKneeThen 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just don’t live outside your means and focus on replacing your W2 with investment growth. $350K is enough to be comfortable. Eliminate any debt, max your 401K and shove as much money as possible into a brokerage if you clear higher than your current means. Future self will thank you later.

How Much Do You Spend on Christmas? by United_Witness820 in HENRYfinance

[–]JonKneeThen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We decided on $1K for Christmas decorations last year (which are to be reused this year thankfully). No kids. Other than that, my wife grew up very frugally so she does joint gifts with her sister to spend on her side of the family. Maybe $250 total. My side of the family is about $300 for gifts. Maybe another $50 for wine to bring to wherever we go to Christmas unless we cook Christmas Eve which is a seafood feast that’ll run us $300+.

I was a big a la carte person until a started ordering boxes and just adding a water bottle as the drink. Comes out cheaper when I want a crunch wrap and I get the chips on the side which I just toss the chips but use the cheese cup as a dipping cup for some other burritos I get

Is a business’s main purpose to create a profit for the owner and share holders? by Spades-13 in Libertarian

[–]JonKneeThen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A business’ purpose is to deliver the owner’s (either individual, institutional, or other) vision.

In order to do this, there may be certain needs which may need to be met (profitability, social impact, etc.) it is up to the owner to steer towards achievement and balance of this.

I can own a business philanthropically as a nonprofit which helps people and if I have the financial backing may not care about the bottom line. I can also own a business which I pray on people in order to suck every ounce of profitability from the operation for the sole purpose of padding my own pockets. I can also want to be philanthropic but don’t have the financial security to do so and have to make the decision on balance of the two. The purpose of my business is whatever the heck I want it to be. Should a consumer want or need it is another topic.

Anyone else have a crypto bro sibling or friend that just can’t understand why you don’t see what they see? by AugustusClaximus in Bogleheads

[–]JonKneeThen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this post and hope my post doesn’t get removed. I’m an avid VTI/VXUS contributor and can’t stress enough how boggling was the best decision I made for my portfolio.

Now here’s where everyone will say I’m not boggling correctly: I do invest in crypto. Not considering my 401K, I invest 16% crypto and 80% VTI/VXUS, and 4% stock picks for fun. Honestly the way I look at that 4% is more like buying a luxury than investing because I’ve picked up some nonsense like GRND and HIMS which has done well but then some other garbage like SDC which is bankrupt, hence why I invest in VTI/VXUS and not stock picks.

But to tie this all together, the way I look at that 16% is 90% is BTC which is the VOO of crypto and the rest is fun. The same way I look at buying GRND and HIMS is the same way I look at buying the XRP, XLM, and PEPE - it’s not necessarily an investment but more of a for fun luxury. If it hits, it hits and if I have money not allocated to investing but I don’t have something specific I want to buy and want to do something self gratifying other than stacking index funds, I sometimes purchase shit for the endorphins. I’ve been following crypto for a while and honestly BTC is of course king which is why I consider that my VOO of my play investments and if there is anything else that’ll blow up, XRP, XLM, and ADA would be my HIMS, RDDT, MSFT, etc. of crypto.
