      Question for Dave- How should I adjust my saving and spending habits to deal with unchecked inflation? I'm very concerned about the massive coining of US currency (something like 40% off all dollars in existence have been coined since March). I'm upper 20s with ~$140k, no debt, no home, and no faith in the Federal Reserve. I'd like to dump the stock and cash it all into a home. Any thoughts?
      Worth a shot...

    Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough savings during their active years. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a asset manager, and my dad through the 401k. My mom retired with about ‘4.2M’, but my dad retired with roughly '$1.8M’.

      For retirees and those close to retirement, I believe it's particularly challenging. All those years of labor only to lose it all to a problem you weren't responsible for, my regrets to everyone retiring during this time.

    • @PennyBergeron-os4ch

      It depends on your personal preferences and comfort level. However, one option is to keep things simple and consult an asset manager. They can help you determine your risk appetite, avoid common mistakes, and provide a broader perspective on your investment landscape. I have about ($1.25m) in non-retirement assets. Compared to the whole value of my portfolio during the last three years, I have no debt and a very little in retirement accounts. To be completely honest, the information provided by managers can only be ignored but not neglected. Simply undertake research to choose a trustworthy one.

One side suggests Bitcoin is still a ponzi scheme and a zero sum game that will go to zero, the other says put your entire life savings into Bitcoin because it's the future of currency.
      The rational side says treat it like a leveraged investment, never put in what you can afford to lose, diversify your portfolio, DCA in, and never panic sell in the red. With the current market cap at an ATH, it's worth considering the potential risks.

    I think that it's best to take on high-risk investments in your 20s. If something goes south, you have your whole life in front of you to fix it as Dave did. However, if your Daves age, slowing down would be a good idea.

    Over leveraging myself on my second rental property was painful lesson I had to learn, also. Experience has taught me that slower is better and having liquidity is safer.

    The Gamestop craze as mentioned has nothing to do with getting rich fast. It's an outcry from the younger generation against the establishment. That's an entirely different topic.

      Don't kid yourself, the vast majority of people that bought in after it started blowing up were just trying to get rich fast. Only the ones that initially invested were truly trying to fight against the hedge funds.

      Exactly! People can't slow down when inflation is moving faster than the average pay raise. It's a necessity now to have multiple streams of income just to survive or get a head in life. The message really shouldn't be to slow down. It should be to inform people to do proper research before jumping into anything.

      @@searphhoney , and you have to have a financial plan. As Dave preaches. Nothing good financially, is going to happen to you by luck unless you win the lottery or inherit a bunch of money, and even then, if you don't have a plan, it will probably do more harm than good to your long term financial health. And, making saving money and investing it, a priority in your life, is always going to be the bedrock principle.
