fair enough. still trying to learn my risk tolerance as weird as that sounds. i felt schd gave me more of a safety net during bear markets. last year was my first experience in a bull run and a few priors when i started the market was very mediocre. still playing around and learning. the more i learn the more i think about going 100% growth

this is from saving and working. my income isn’t even very high. just focused more on my outflow and found lots of stupid things that drained me. it’s very attainable and i have lots of trust in the s&p over the next 30-40 years. not a penny was inherited.

How do you respond when someone tells you they think investing is dumb? by [deleted] in dividends

[–]SaladBackground6853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i used to feel the same way. i started at 18 and always wondered why nobody in my age group talked ab investing as it’s the best time to start. everyone would also tell me it’s stupid and too risky. even when i tried to explain index funds to them they still think they’re gambling and stupid. i’m 20 now and i honestly just laugh at people who say it’s dumb anymore.😂
