    My opinion of investing in index funds: if the fund tanks, it's because the index tanked, which means the economy is in shambles and the state of my portfolio is probably the least of my worries.

    I listened again and still unsure, tell me; when on the daily purchase, does the app buy at the low of the day? Also, you spoke of purchasing daily, then you went to the application sheet to check the boxes and there was not box for daily. Just monthly, quarterly and yearly and you got excited saying it would be great if able to buy daily.

      What you talking about $1 is not even close to the same as $7.27, $5, or $6 the outcomes is numbers based not behavior based.... UA-camrs don't tell the truth always that a high income or a very low spending rate or very low expenses is the key to having options.

    To be fair to the meme stocks, it wasn't about making people rich, it was literally about stopping short sellers etc from shorting the stock and walking away rich while collapsing companies. You can tell it was effective because lawmakers tried to change the rules to stop it.
    You only keep the stock for roughly as long as it's going up and drop it when it comes back down. It's a short term thing.

    My £100 a month in 2013 whilst I was a student, which increased to £300 a month in 2016 and £500 a month in 2018 is now in 6 figures. I'm more than 200% up on total deposits, it's in an ISA so tax free in UK. Was 70% individual stocks until 2016 when I watched a Warren Buffet video, since it's been 95% Index/ETF.
    Earlier you invest in Index fund and stay consistent and patient, ideally not even look at the fund, have it automated and look back annually. I only invested what I didn't need for my living expenses and see it as detached from me, in 13 years I'm retiring at an age whilst my body is strong instead of 50s, 60s.

    NIO, SOFI, and LCID are three examples of overhyped individual stocks. If the $5 a day challenge is followed regularly over a long period of time, prosperity can result. This video has some useful information.

    The demo at the end is wrong tho, no one with a brain would put 100% of their money into one single stock, that'd be crazy. Also, I do believe you can do better than indexes if you get a good number of DIVERSIFIED stocks.
    Betting on an index is for the lazy people out there that just don't want to bother learning/experimenting/adapting and prefer to pay 0.x% for someone to handle their investments.

    I still think Apple is heavily overvalued and overhyped. They do too little to be worth that much. Laptops and phones. Thats it, with phones being only like 20% of the global market. That bubble will pop at some point.
