    One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $30k of my savings in stocks this year, and I hope I make profits.

      You are right. The best approach I feel is to diversify investments- by spreading investments across different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.

    I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially in 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I’m up 67% from last year with a 7 figure portfolio well positioned with good blue chip companies and I have stop losses in place. Personally with insights from my adviser Anna Rounds Fay, I prefer to invest in large cap companies which have economic moats, large cash flows and strong balance sheets. Some of which are AAPL, MSCI, IUKD, VHYL, SCHD, NVDA and Barclays.

      Yes. It is very easy to buy in on trending stocks but the problem is knowing when to sell or hold, which is why a coach is important. I've been in touch with one for about a year now and although I was initially skeptical about it, I will say I've made more progress within a year generating 6figure profit

      This is precisely reason I prefer having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decision: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same, using risk for it's asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I have been utilizinga portfolio coach for about two (2) yrs and I've made over $1,500,000

    I believe JEPI and JEPQ could fit well into my portfolio as I approach retirement. How can I maintain a high-risk investment strategy to pursue higher yields until I reach at least 55?

    • @JosephineKenney
      @JosephineKenney 5 місяців тому +4

      Adding JEPI and JEPQ is smart for nearing retirement. As for staying committed to higher-risk investments, it's all about balancing your risk tolerance with your long-term goals. Maybe consider diversifying your portfolio to spread out the risk.

    • @PennyBergeron-os4ch

      Or better yet, have one.. For several years, I've been in touch with a coach, mostly because I lack the depth of understanding and mental toughness to deal with the ongoing market conditions. You lack the information necessary to succeed in a competitive market, not because you're doing anything wrong, but rather because of your lack of experience.

    I like investing in close-end funds that pay monthly dividends. The trick is to hold long term and reinvest the monthly dividends plus buy more shares on a monthly basis or when ever you can afford to. This can be easily done because close-end funds are bought and sold on the stock market just like regular stock. That’d be enough to create a portfolio that would pay you between $50k to $70k in dividend income

To each their own but to me, retirement isn't just about not having to work, it's about having the freedom to do whatever you might reasonably want, such as travel, buying things, enjoying life, etc. I don't think I could retire with less than $3m in income-generating investments, maybe $2m at the very minimum.

    Very useful thank you Mark, been pondering 🤔 on investing for a while now, but you made it clear for a beginner like me. I will be investing $500 initially with small monthly incremental payments and see how I get on. Need to think long-term and not just the initial salary month to month. Thanks again. Subscribed! And as a side note, I prefer manual, feel more in control of the car 👍

    Hey Mark, I'm really glad I happened upon your channel, love the way you break concepts down! I wonder if it would be interesting to you to make a video explaining the benefits and drawbacks of investing in the various different S&P500 index funds in various countries. In Canada for example, we have VFV and VSP as options, but I don't really understand the differences! Keep up the great work!

    Hello, this comment is for Mark Tilbury and whoever can say if I am doing this correctly.
    I first invest $6000 in an S&P 500 index fund every year while opening a Roth IRA so I can get set up for retirement and not have to pay taxes that much. I also get my parents to put me up as an authorized user on their credit cards so I can have a high credit score when I am old enough to have a credit card. Then when I am 20 I buy a house and get a loan from the bank only using 10-30 percent of the amount they allow me to have. I rent out half of the house to someone and they pay half or more of the mortgage and then my credit score will go higher because I am able to pay the mortgage on time so lenders can understand that I am good with my credit score and my mortgages.
    But in the meantime, what side hustles should I do to earn enough money so that I can have enough money for my emergency emergency backup fund? Here is an example of something that I need you to look at. If I am buying a 2 person house and I have an income of $70,000 and I only use 10-30% of the amount of money the bank gives me and I pay it back in 30 years I should have 84,000-250,000 to use within the 10-30% price limit you say to use. I am buying a house for $150,000 in this scenario. If I use the 50/20/30 rule that you talked about then I will have 35,000 to use for my groceries and my mortgage but like I said above if I rent out my house out then I will only have to pay half of the $35,000 from the 50/20/30 rule and I will still be able to pay back the loan in about 4 yrs which is the same time I would pay back the loan if I used all of the $35,000 but if I did I wouldn't be able to pay for groceries and the S&P 500 index fund. My goal is to make $30,000 from side hustles before I am 20 as an emergency emergency backup fund because the $30,000 is not my normal emergency backup fund because if somethings happens unexpectedly and my normal emergency backup fund is not enough then I will use my $30,000.
    But back to the main question how do I earn enough money from side hustles? I have also looked at your videos about side hustles for some information. Also, how do I contact you because I have tried and this is my third try? If this is confusing please comment so I know some people are reading this.
    Have a great day for all who still kept reading and got this far.
    And if anyone can like this comment to get his attention it would mean a lot to me so please do.
    And once again have a great day for all who still kept reading and got this far.
    PS: This comment is not specifically for this video and I looked at multiple TikTok's Instagrams and youtube videos to get this information and make a sort of a decent plan for myself.

      I think the next big thing will be A.I. For enduring growth akin to META, it's vital to avoid impulsive decisions driven by short-term fluctuations. Prioritize patience and a long-term perspective consider financial advisory for informed buying and selling decisions.

    Hi! I just found Mike's channel today and I'm loving his content. I have a question about the index fund investing.
    In theory it's just like a stock, right? So you could sell it eventually if you come to need to cash the money for, let's say, an emergency? Or is it mandatory that it stays invested for a fixed amount of time?
    I think is kind of a basic question but I'd love if someone could help me with it. Thanks a lot!

    • @marktilbury
      @marktilbury  4 роки тому +11

      Welcome aboard! Yes you can withdraw money from an index fund, but it's not the point of the fund, you should build an emergency fund first and keep that in a high interest savings account. Your index fund is an insurance for your future that's why you only put in what you can afford every month and leave it to grow. To get it compounding you need to leave it for around 10-12 years, and then you will not want to touch it any way. Thanks Tilbo

    Hello Mark. Thank you for your good explanations in your videos. As you said, people often say do this, do that, but they never show you how exactly to do it. Maybe you can make a video in which you show us how you can sell your shares on the three major portals you mentioned? Then the topic would also be dealt with. Thank you in advance.

    Sold my APPL before it tanked, will buy at next major drop. I'd definitely need to make use of the $250k liquidity elsewhere. So what should I be looking at? Large cap or small cap stocks? Maybe crypto?
