I anticipate positive growth in the markets for 2025, and I'm considering investing $220k in stocks for my retirement plan due to recent rate cuts. Could you provide guidance on executing this investment safely? Additionally, are there any crucial tips or changes I should be mindful of in the current financial landscape?
If you're new to investing or not very experienced, it's wise to seek advice from an expert. Investing without proper guidance can result in mistakes and losses, and I've learned this from my own experience.
I totally agree with you. I started out investing on my own too and lost quite a bit. After the 2020 crash, I managed to pull out about $160k. I then invested that money with an analyst, and in just seven months, I made almost $480,000. It's amazing how having the right guidance can turn things around!
My CFA is Brenda Davies Clarke, a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did.
Thank you so much for the suggestion! I really needed it. I looked her up on Google and explored her website; she has an impressive background in investments. I've sent her an email, and I hope to hear back from her soon!
Buffet was also selling when the pandemic hit, a great entry point for people of my generation (30s, 40s) and a great period for stocks overall. My question is do you think it's a good time to consider selling some stocks too? I’m considering rebalancing my $2M portfolios and curious for the best strategies to do so.
I agree. Exactly why I now work with one. A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their emotions, no offense. I remember some years back, during the covid-outbreak, I needed a good boost to stay afloat, hence researched for advisors and thankfully came across one with grit. As of today, my cash reserve has yielded from $350k to nearly $1m
There are a handful of CFAs out there. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I’ve stuck with ZAREEN GRACE CHURCH for some years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s known in her field-look her up.
Thanks for the info. I searched for her full name and found her website right away. I reviewed her credentials and did my research before reaching out to her.
My advice to everyone is this : if you want to grow big this year especially in your finances. Be willing to take risks. Saving is great but taking risks puts you on a pedestal where you wouldnt have to worry about savings as you do now. Thanks to Tessa Brugh Dueker, my portolio is doing really great and im proud of the decisions i made last year.
I think she trades for everyone I meet. I met her twice at a meeting in Germany and after her lectures from Ella I had to personally ask her to be my financial advisor. she is definitely good
I have never seen a trader as open and transparent as Tessa Brugh Dueker with her clients. The way she decides to make a profit for her clients. she allows you to express your fears and she still rests your fears and that is my respect. I don't normally comment on videos, but this word should be included. she is really cool.
Right, a lot of folks downplay the role of a CFA until being burnt by their emotions, no offense. During the covid-outbreak, I needed a good boost to stay afloat, hence researched for CFA and thankfully came across one with grit. As of today, my portfolio has grown by 25% every quarter since Q3 2020.

Hey Joseph, thanks for all your hard work, appreciate it a lot. One thing I´d like to ask you for your future videos: could you SLOW DOWN your pace of speaking a bit? There´s not a single pause or a moment to think about what you say because the words come out like a machine gun. Just my 2 cents, no offence, always great value, THANK YOU!!!
I may eventually shift to 80% ETFs since I find managing individual stocks too time-consuming. Are there other strategies that might be more effective for retirement investing?
Sure..... There are always strategies that could be put in place regardless but then you need to have an in-depth knowledge of the market to get it mostly right or consulting with an expert who does
Working with an investment adviser is the best strategy for navigating today's stock market, particularly for those approaching retirement. After consulting with a coach, my initial $450K investment has grown to more than $800K since Q2.
Solid positions there! I regularly buy more shares, but I also invest in growth stocks/ETFs. Right now, I focus on growth, but I plan to switch to dividend-paying value stocks/ETFs eventually. It’s advisable to engage guidance for a well-diversified portfolio instead of relying solely on speculations. That’s what works for my spouse and I. We've made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.
My CFA, Carol Vivian Constable is a renowned figure in her field. I recommend researching her name online; you’ll find all her credentials and everything you need to work with a reliable professional. With many years of experience, she is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
I used to think it was just about buying stocks, but I didn’t realize there are strategies for managing risk and actually making a profit. Now I feel kinda stuck since I’m not seeing any gains in my portfolio. Do you have any recommendations on what I should consider? I’d really appreciate it!
Great thoughts! I started investing early last year. with a start of 70k. I made my first 500k USD last 3 months. Today, I have a decent $950K portfolio. My only regret is not starting earlier. This comment serves as motivation for all those who haven't made returns from investments, do not give up, the right investments will change your life. I should retire soon as long as things remain this good
How did you manage to achieve that level of growth? I'm 55 years old with not enough set aside for retirement at this point. I have always been curious about the market and have witnessed people who played the game right and retired early. Some claimed they started very small, but their portfolio grew over time. I do have a significant amount but I’m unsure about which strategies or approach to take in order to achieve good returns. I'm open-minded and would appreciate any help or guidance
Great video, I've been interested in investing ever since I came across articles of people making up to $150,000 and more in this period, thanks for the video but is it really possible for a retail investor to achieve this in months?
I've purchased numerous stocks in individual firms. Because there are so many stocks that will skyrocket in the long run, it is currently safe to buy in on ETF and ride it out. Due to fud, I sold out early, but then retraced my ways and re-invested $350,000 with a financial advisor who manages my account. I received an 82% return last year and will see where it goes this year.
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’ Carol Vivian Constable” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.

My primary concern with ETFs is their lack of optimization. A significant drop in any single stock within an ETF can pull down the entire portfolio. That said, ETF or not, I don't see the stock market slowing down anytime soon, and I'm considering investing around $60k. However, I’m not entirely confident in my skills just yet.
I've seen over 45% growth in my portfolio this year, but my Financial Advisor has recommended that we diversify moving forward. It’s clear that a rising market doesn’t always signal a healthy economy, but we might as well capitalize on the current momentum while it lasts.
I consistently recommend Rebecca Lynne Buie as my top choice. She is well-known for her expertise in financial markets and has an impressive track record. I highly endorse her services.

It's not just about having money to invest in stocks; it's about knowing the right strategies for profit and managing risk. That's why working with an investment advisor is important-they have insights not available to everyone.

instead of seeking for random opinion i think you should talk with a CFA to avoid making errors
