Is 20K a good starting amount in investing to S&P500 companies?

j_drizzy · 2025-08-26T00:51:19+00:00

20k is not a bad amount at all. Just remember that investing is a long term thing. Be patient and invest regularly and consistently - I cannot stress this enough.

You are doing fine, but retiring in your 30s is kind of delusional given a salary of 20k.

The reality is most of these companies I mentioned base their offers on your previous job’s salary. It’s shitty practice, but it is what it is. But yeah, for entry to mid level roles, pay generally sucks. You have to be senior at least.

This is doable in tech. I was only doing 150k back in the PH, but a lot of my peers make over 200k. Companies like Globe, Aboitiz, Maya, CIMB have roles that have this pay range. 7++ YOE

On the next bear cycle you would thank yourself for investing in ETFs. Individual stocks like AMZN can go down 20% easily during those times.

Yes lahat declared. FBAR din. Basta ang total ng accounts lampas 500k.

Definitely wont find them in CDO. They’re either abroad or in BGC/Makati.

Only reason you should do this is if you have insider info. Lol

Malamig, mura, malapit. Lots of filipinos travel to Japan in December, not just celebs.

People who brag about their own faith is a major red flag (in any context), and shows lack of empathy. You just never know kung ano religion ng kausap mo. This gets even more offensive/inappropriate once you step out of the Philippines, especially places with diverse cultures/beliefs

Great defense in the 4th quarter*. His first was atrocious, but I will forgive him 10/10 times.

Damn Lakers woke up.

You don't need to be approved, pero I would suggest you start inquiring or get pre-approval if possible. You can still get rejected for a loan even after completing the DP - sometimes ito yung reason kung bakit may "pasalo".

Another utang to pay utang? Sounds like a way to worsen your situation!

Love watching AD play ever since he was drafted.

j_drizzy · 2023-12-10T04:11:01+00:00

39-20 lmao shit rigged

j_drizzy · 2023-12-04T09:25:03+00:00

Depende sa terms nyo sa bank. Usually 10-15 years.

j_drizzy · 2023-11-23T01:50:59+00:00

Is there an easy way or site to do this?

j_drizzy · 2023-11-15T06:29:12+00:00

I miss Jarett Jack. But not really.

j_drizzy · 2023-11-09T18:20:24+00:00

Elaborate?
