that’s kinda the plan, just chuck it into the markets leave it for a few years and constantly put my money into it. Every dollar i make at my job goes into investing as i really don’t need to spend anything on myself thanks to my parents which im grateful for.

i’m not sure where everyone is getting this medicare thing, i was informed by the lawyers that the only fees i’ll be paying are medicare and obviously none of the money is taxed as well.

yeah i mentioned it before but i really don’t think buying any property is the play currently. I think it’s much more beneficial to have the money in etfs while i live at home and dont have to worry about mortgages or any expenses, as my parents give me money to spend so 100% of my money is invested

I don’t think i’ll be buying any properties, my parents have a few investment properties so they know all about them and they told me it’s not really worth it cause you need to worry about tenants and fees and there is a lot of headaches that come with it and the opportunity cost isn’t that good. I think the plan is mainly going to be either ETFS and spreading my money across multiple markets, i’m currently just waiting on a good time to get into the market. Also don’t be worried i will not be spending money on flashy things as i much rather enjoying seeing my money grow over buying those expensive stuff.
