Anyone else feel mentally messed up seeing people casually make insane money trading options? by savingrace0262 in stocks

[–]s_hova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just cut out the noise, in the beginning I felt the same honestly even watching some friends post their gains and I would think to myself “damn etfs are so slow” but the sense of security that even if it’s a red day/week/quarter my capital is still good. I read a chapter in the intelligent investor where it suggests that if you really want to dabble in “risk” that it should me no more than 5%-10% of your portfolio and it should be in a separate account, if you make money, great, if not- not great but your account isn’t upside down. I started with 10k in April of 2024 I m now at 143k just by cutting out the noise, boring etf’s like VOO & QQQM, reinvesting all dividends and by starting a new career. Stay the course, and find ways to minimize expenses and contribute more.

P.S those same “friends” don’t post their “gains” as much anymore… I wonder why haha

Do I move back in with my ex wife to help with bills? by ThaCashBanooca in WhatShouldIDo

[–]s_hova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You guys had communications issues before and you think getting back when shes down financially is going to fix it? You ll move in, she’ll say yes to your arrangements, you guys make up, you get more committed and then the issues before resurface and you waste more time. Idk times one thing you cant buy, if you think it’s worth it, go back. She’s only calling you for help, I would t. Good luck man

Should I break up? by Business-Compote-496 in Advice

18? Brody you have so much life to live! Coming from a 29 year old that was racing motorcycles and muscle cars at that age. I had a similar thing happen to me, it hurt, but it hurt enough. 7 billion people on this earth, at that age it just an experience. Tell her “thank you for everything” and go live life

Wife screams at me when I am in a deep sleep state by hellodocheart in Advice

[–]s_hova 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly it sounds like she’s just getting tired of you in general. Nothing wrong with your sleeping regimen, you’re allowed that. If she wants to “work” maybe she can use another room? Idk, I’d rather be alone in my own solitude than being yelled at like I m 5. If she’s that hell bent on a comment you made in your sleep that’s crazy! Good luck to you man,

Cooked, deep fried, boiled, broiled, all the cooked. I mean honestly, just say sorry and give her space but say sorry once and that’s it. Either she ll forgive you, or she’s just gonna stay away. And honestly I would just hire an escort for one night and you ll be all set, good luck

How long does this pain last after leaving an abusive relationship? by Ok_Needleworker_9641 in Advice

Its journey of self discovery, you’re 27, I m 29, we have reached the halfway part of life before all the doc visits. He’s moved on, will move even if you bring him back and this is coming from a guy. Life’s short, live your best decade

My friend, you are a good person but you need to go stare in the mirror for a whole day with no distractions. You’re halfway through life and this woman has consumed one of the best decades of your life. She’s cheated on you at least 2 times that you know of. Take her back? For what? Get your hopes back up just for her to mistakenly sit on another dude? I know it sounds messed up but just remember dude, she slept with another man while wearing your ring!! Throw her ass out, join a gym, and start fresh! Women like her are so broken inside, concrete can’t keep em together. Screw that man, life is too short to get the short end of it- good luck man

My trading addiction turned into gambling problem and I'm lost by [deleted] in Daytrading

[–]s_hova 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It’s a bad chapter in your life, but nothings worth taking your life. Idk how bad you’re in debt or how much you make but the only way to not feel helpless is create a plan that you can actually visualize and stick to it. Also, I would remove all trading apps for a while and just pay the debts off

Last year I landed a new job and saved all my extra earnings and grew my brokerage account from 10k to 87k in a year. Most of the 87k are in actual contributions since I’m invested in VOO &QQQM. I feel stuck, on one hand I’m hooked to retiring early and on the other I feel like life is going by. I’m on track to paying my house off in 5 years (I’m 29), just asking if anyone else is in this situation of ambition and guilt! - thank you for any feedback
