What are the downsides of just owning blue chip stocks like Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft for a time frame of 2-5 years ?
Let's talk about a time frame of 2-5 years. It's not so large, but also not so short. These are giants. The probability of them going down is practically zero. The only downside I can think of is that they're all tech sector, and I won't be diversified. But even if the tech sector drops, it should be back up in a rel...

Make sure enough is set aside for taxes. Then, double check the rules to ensure you won't have to pay a portion of it back if you were to leave the company before a certain time. Once you've cleared those hurdles I would pay off all the debt; the credit cards cause of the high interest rate and the student loans becaus...

Your gut is correct. Get rid of that debt. My personal opinion is that you should not begin investing while you have CC debt. At least debt beyond what you can pay off every month. After that start putting into a 401K or IRA. 15% of your pay would be the target, but start with whatever you can afford - at least ...

Great suggestions here. My only addition, double-check the fine print. If you are obligated to work for a certain period of time (e.g. 90 days, a year, etc.) or the penalty is to pay the bonus back, bank it in high interest saving until it really is your money free and clear. Just in case you find yourself in a posi...

Emergency Fund, then High Interest Debt. Also, as you review your benefits, if there's a retirement plan, ensure that you're contributing to max out any match your employer may fund. That's free money.

Doing OK is all relative. What are your goals? Are you happy? You should not judge your happiness by other people's metrics but by your own. If you are able to meet your needs and save money you're doing ok.

As everyone said, you are doing very well on what you are earning. If you are okay earning that, it is kind of difficult to own a 200K property at that income level. I do suggest you shop that car insurance. Unless you are driving something new and expensive, at 32 that seems kind of high. Maybe it's just me.

I see the savings is for a downpayment on a condo: $200k\*20% = $40k. "63%, say they've been living paycheck to paycheck since the Covid-19 pandemic hit the U.S." - CNBC So apparently you're doing better than 63% of Americans.

Go talk to a mortgage broker about that condo. Whether you are ready now or later, they can help look at your actual details and help you get there sooner rather than later.

Buying stocks can lead to stress and constantly researching. You may be better of just investing in indexed mutual funds. Total stock market, total international stock market, total bond market. Figure out the right allocation mix for you and be patient. No home runs but no drastic drops either!

Anyone willing to share their financial situation?
Obviously nothing specific. I'm a 26F, married and pretty financially stable. But with memes and articles across the interwebs talking about millenials struggling financially, I sort of wonder where I land, financially speaking. Am I close to normal? Above average? I'm curious to see how I compare to other folks! Here'...

This will be an unpopular opinion, but the OP can do a lot more damage to the portfolio on their own than 1.5% a year. It took me years.. decades? to learn how not to fuck up. Read a wiki and learn how to manage a 13M portfolio? Sincerely, good luck.

I am very sorry for your loss. Do not touch the money yet. Ask your mother’s estate attorney to refer you to a reputable wealth manager. Talk to them and then get a second opinion. I would suggest that you spend at least six months educating yourself before you do anything. Do not panic and do not become overwhelmed. ...

Well, first, fire the financial advisor. He's not worth a 1.5% fee. That's robbery. $200k/yr he's stealing from you. Second, hire a fiduciary that charges an hourly fee. Third, start reading and learning yourself, but run any serious decisions by your new fiduciary.

Price gouging specifically refers to increasing prices by an unreasonable amount once a state of emergency has been declared. It is not illegal to markup prices during non-emergencies.

Please don’t get on a car payment plan. It is a trap and I can tell you from experience. Try to save up and buy a car out right. They say you should have a 1000 dollar emergency fund and you should be matching what your employer matches on 401k. This is very basic and there is a lot of information out there.

Your house may also be less insulated than others near you. You can get an energy audit done to identify any failpoints (after addressing the obvious issue of the old fridge) and see if you need more insulation, new windows, etc.

Unplug the fridge in the garage for a month. Turn AC to 76 or better yet 78. Dehumidified air at 78 should be comfortable. See what the bill is. Also- townhome so maybe ask an electrician to come out and make sure there aren't any illegal hookups to your electric supply.

I'm certainly bullish about Expedia as well. Homeaway is an exciting asset - no doubt about it. Along with Expedia, one should examine Trivago $TRVG. Another online travel agency of sorts, who happens to be 62% owned by Expedia. Thus it stands to reason that if Expedia does well, so should Trivago.

British American Tobacco
I understand why Tobacco companies deserve a big discount due to the long term uncertainty with their business model. But why is BAT trading at a valuation so much lower than Philip Morris international or even Altria? BAT is the leader in so many international markets and is one of the leading e-cig companies.

All I know is SMR went on a fucking tear right after I sold and I haven’t bought back in which means it’s probably going to keep performing well

Is $SMR facing badluck or it will eventually breakthough?
Badluck 1. This past November, the Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems, or UAMPS, terminated what was to be “the first NuScale Power small modular reactor plant to begin operation in the United States.” This was a death foretold; the red flags have been obvious for years now. https://www.utilitydive.com/news/nusc...

I meant to get in touch about this when I saw it this morning. Your first imgur link is bad. I didn't have time to check the rest and was sure you'd want to correct it before someone saved this from the modqueue.

Paid off expenses and the **same** amount of shares that you started with 3 years ago. I personally wo...

Extrapolate this to the whole market. BTC was trading at $16.Xk a few weeks ago. It "falling" to $21k is actually a great sign. You want rallies to hit higher peaks and fall to higher lows.
