    The most popular investment portfolio strategies include diversification, where you spread investments across different asset classes to manage risk. Another is the growth strategy, focused on capital appreciation through high-risk, high-reward assets. Income-oriented strategies target regular income from dividend stocks or bonds. Finally, there's the value strategy, seeking undervalued assets for potential long-term gains.

      According to Warren Buffett, dividends are less valuable for growing businesses and more suitable for established ones. Investing in companies that offer dividends might be seen as parking capital for steady returns, especially for those relying on portfolio income. This approach resembles bond investing, serving as a means of generating consistent earnings.

    I lost over $70K when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I find one source to recover my money, at least $9k profits weekly. Thanks so much Mrs Angie Owens

    These are very valuable rules for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the principles. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession-- it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I have about $89k now to put in the market.

    This is the only *triple* tax exempt way to save for retirement and can help people save more than $7k/yr via Roth/IRA.
    The 3 taxes you avoid via HSA are: Federal income tax, state income tax, and FICA tax (FICA tax is 7.65% tax taken from your paycheck to pay for Social Security and Medicare).

    Well, what makes me an outlier I guess! I am 57 year-old English immigrant, with zero interest in tech or stocks, and yet I am 110% committed to Bitcoin. I would describe myself as an extreme conservative/libertarian. I have been involved in UK politics for some time, and the main thing that drove me to study Bitcoin and ultimately recognise its value to Humanity was the threat posed by an over-weening government, first in the UK and lately in the US also. I regard the CBDC as the final brick in the wall of the totalitarian prison the world's governments are building for us. And Bitcoin is the ultimate defence against a tyrannical government.r.....I've been engaged in active trading and managed to grow a nest egg of around 2.3Bitcoin to a decent 24Bitcoin....I'm especially grateful to Sandy Barclays, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape.

    Something aint right. His 600k house paid off and hes in his 40's with 6 kids and has 200k in IRA!!!?? Something isnt adding up. If he had a 30 year mortgage that means he got the house when he was like 15. So he must have gotten a 15 year mortgage. Assuming he paid the house off by 43 years old, that means he purchased it when he was 28 meaning he bought it in 2009. Median home price was $215,000 during that year. So his monthly mortgage was about $1400-$1600 a month. So basically most his current net worth is thanks to the 2008 market crash and also thanks to covid making house prices double. Had it not been for covid his home would probably be valued at $375,000 considering historically home prices rise by 3.5%- 4% a year.

So first 3 kids he gets the full 2k to offset fed income taxes to 0. For the next 3 kids he should get the max refund credit of $1600/kid so $4800. So isn't he actually only paying around like 2k in taxes? Maybe I misunderstood the whole max refund credit for child tax credit.
