Finally joined the $100k traditional brokerage club 🙌 Took 8 years of investing but a little consistency can go a long way.

A short term crisis, is a long term opportunity.

In summary. 1/2) $VOO / $VTI 3) $QQQ 4) $VUG 5) $VB 6) $SCHD ETFs are simple and effective. What's not to love.

90% of my portfolio is invested in ETFs. Here are the top 6: $VOO and $VTI Including these as one since they are about 80% similar by weight. 10 yr average annual return: 15.5%

@RampCapitalLLC Someone got paid to come up with that

What are we doing here

@Mr_Derivatives Honestly I hope so

@HertzyTrades @Investmentkage Second this advice

My friend is 36 134K salary and has 77K student loans He Invests $3,000 a month Should he keep investing or pay of his loans first? Just kidding I made this up too.

@Invested_In_You Renting for 3 years set us up well to buy our first house. And even after buying a house our mortgage, insurance, and taxes come out to about the same as what rent would be. I’m a fan of both. Just have to run the numbers like you said.

Most people think renting is throwing money away. It’s not always. There’s a ton of added costs with home ownership that many don’t consider: - Property taxes: 1-2% of home value annually - Maintenance and repairs: 1% annually - Insurance: $2,000+ per year - HOA fees where applicable - Closing costs to buy: 2-5% - Closing costs to sell: 6-8% On a $500,000 home that’s $10,000-$15,000 a year in costs before your mortgage payment. Renting a comparable place for less and investing the difference isn’t throwing money away. Sometimes it’s the smarter financial decision.

@BoujeeFinances More important than ever to not have cash stuffed under the mattress

Inflation = higher margins in almost everything This is why investors and owners of assets see their wealth grow during periods of cost of living increases

@TheAlphaThought I don’t mind tipping when someone is waiting on us…what can’t stand is the tip requests for every fast food joint lol.

I have a better idea. Let’s normalize the fact that tips shouldn’t be expected and we should only be tipping for great service.

@Smartnetworth1 Whatever gets the clicks

I can’t stand these “by 26 you should have this much invested” posts. It’s such nonsense. I didn’t start investing until 31 and became wealthy by 38. I really don’t see the value in these ridiculous posts. It just makes people feel they are behind.

@TheLongApe Stacking

@cadeinvests Brick by brick

The habit of investing is key. If you invest with little money. You'll invest with big money.

@Sayzryn Facts. It’s boring and lame…till it’s not.

@cadeinvests nobody starts with big money, they just kept going when it felt pointless

@ItsJamesHall Especially for those that are young

@cadeinvests Just getting started is the most important thing a novice can do.

@thelucashalden 🎯🎯🎯

@cadeinvests Plus this is easier to start and build momentum with Start small, focus on your 9 - 5 and raising your family

@LogWeaver Yep, why I’m a fan of eventually automating your investments

@cadeinvests Systems beat willpower, so starting small just builds the automated muscle.

@CoachRolfes Louder for the people in the back lol

@cadeinvests Preach!

@nomoreplan_b Precisely

@cadeinvests Habits compound faster than capital.

@GnosticBullChit 🤝

@cadeinvests I concur highly! Ive been running VTI/vxus for ten years and was wondering as to why the voo but solid answer friend

@RealRonSneller I don’t count them as different. Hold VOO/QQQ in traditional and QQQ/VUG in my Roth. I could’ve done one or the other but prefer to vary the holdings.

@cadeinvests This isn't as smart as it seems, since VOO & VTI are essentially the same, and QQQ & VUG are essentially the same.
