Can you stop spamming spoilers of games i havent played?

Just "earn" $100k
What a joke

I got 300k without doing much, just waging. What's next?

100k in dividend stock is like having a second shitty part time job except it's free

bs

just be born rich enough to buy land and invest when you're in high school lol

Thank you mr investor

I thought I had seen this image but it said million

DX has a 16.94% annual dividend yield

LMAO his fag has never seen a coupon in his life.

1941: Eleven-year-old Warren Buffet buys six shares at $38 each in Cities Services Company. After experiencing a market drop and then a swift rise to $40, he sells his stock for a profit. At age 13, Buffett proclaims he will be a millionaire by 30.

1945: Barely a teenager, Buffett makes a monthly wage of $175 distributing The Washington Post. Using his savings, the 14-year-old invests $1,200 into 40 acres of farmland.

$3,118.84 in Apr. 2025 equals $175 of buying power in 1945 (Average).

1947: At 17, Buffett goes into business with his friend, purchasing a second-hand pinball machine for $25. They soon owned three machines in different locations across town and sold the business for $1,200.

1949: Buffett amasses $9,800 in savings from his Washington Post paper route.

$26,270.15 in Apr. 2025 equals $1,949 of buying power in 1949 (Average).

Putting it in JEPI is nice if you want a monthly dividend on a stock that's not gonna grow like crazy but won't crash either. UEC I'm really confident in too with the big push we're getting towards nuclear power in the states

it's closer to 200k in 2025 dollars.

ease of

Low iq retard made this

Better off getting other stocks that happen to give dividends desu, no growth in those big dividend stocks unless the plan is to live like a retirement boomer (in their case the lack of growth is irrelevant since they'll be dead soon)

every "self made" fag is a narcissistic psychopath who wants you to ignore his nepotism, connections, generational wealth
you know, social animal shit

inb4 you're a commie

having generational wealth, nepotism, etc. is good but lying about it makes you a sinister loser

$1M isn't "fuck you" money in the current year

: Buffett amasses $9,800 in savings from his Washington Post paper route.

$26,270.15 in Apr. 2025 equals $1,949 of buying power in 1949 (Average).

$132,000 from a paper route when he was a teenager?

since the board designated to discuss said subject is hot garbage (biz), where does one go to learn more and discuss the stock market? I don't want to day trade and basically make a few extra euros a day/week until I can comfortably start taking bigger risks. I have the basics down but still feel like I'm missing a lot of info

NTA but you'd average about 760 bucks a month in like JEPI or the other anon that mentioned DX with its pretty great rates too. It's not financial advice but it's way better having it in something that actually beats inflation compared to just a savings account

he was just saving his allowance :)

Don't question it goy, he invested a small sum that would be a small fortune today when you consider inflation

oops, that was a typo. Yeah, it should be

$132,092.06 in Apr. 2025 equals $9,800 of buying power in 1949 (Average).

tfw make $14k off of patreon of a shitty game i dont want to develop

look at the job titles of people who do what you want and then do research. follow the jobs and not the people. It's very clear what you need to know to be a career, what's unclear is whether anyone has those credentials at all.

The stock market thread on Anon Babble, aka Anon Babble with porn

was it porn?

dude fuck ever working again lmao. I've a job now where I've been fucked over but was privy enough to make it to where I basically do nothing now or some people are gonna get fucked over in turn. gay ass world fuck it all

Unless something changed in the last year or so, the stock market general in biz was pretty decent as long as you ignored some of the obvious bag holders. You just gassed to ignore every single bitcoin thread and topic because those are all Indian scams

minimum wage $400 where I live

Just gotta work for 20 years and never eat anything
We are all going to make it brahs

just turned 38

only 300k net worth

50% 401k, 25% roth ira, 25% brokerage

I'm tired, boss.

it was and still is porn
it's (basically) free money with 0 effort and i shouldn't be dismissive and retarded about it but i hate it more than i did my McJob™ and i hate everyone who pays for it

Hang yourself

Also assuming a starbucks coffee is $5 (I don't know, I never go there), and instead of having one every day you added it to your savings, you'd need:

132000 / 5 = 26400 days

26400 / 365

72 years

The only place in biz that talks about it is /smg/, but you'll quickly learn that many of the experts have less than $5k in their investment accounts. Everything else is crypto. Fuck Anon Babble honestly.

Realistically I don't really know to be honest, youtube tutorials are shit made by people just trying to scam you into their online courses and books are all written by old wealthy boomers who are playing a different game entirely and have no idea what the typical retail trader is going through. I'm up about 17,000 overall after the tariffs punched me in the dick, and all my knowledge comes from my parents who are cautious investors and experience on my own. I guess look at blue chip stuff and slow but steady ETFs to start with, then start taking risks with lower amounts. Day trading, in my experience, is not very good because I'm prone to making irrational, emotional decisions if I'm watching the ticker all day.

No thanks Chuck I'd rather just vote to tax your money instead

$100k is nothing today. dumb boomers don't know how good they had it.

also this assumes inflation is constant, etc. but warren buffet's story and this starbucks meme is a cool way of showing how brain damaged and sadistic these nepo baby boomers are

That ratio is still about $26,000 or so. That's fucked.

every single retard peddling this shit has been born in the top 10% at the very fucking least(most likely much higher)

but muh musk

musks father invested 30k into his business in 1995

b-but bezos launched amazon from his garage!

his parents invested 250k into his business, also in 1995

Its sad but if you were not born rich you will NEVER become filthy rich like them, your best bet is getting rich trough luck (streamers, athletes, celebrities, etc.)
next best thing is to work and aim for a good upper-middle class life and get a better headstart for your children

AI power requirements are renewing interest in nuclear

b-b-but we have phones and internet now, its such a luxury anon...a luxury over half the population of the failed state of somalia also has.... hey wait a mi

I saved $100k by not buying a new GPU every 2 years

pretty much the only way to become a billionaire is to be born a millionaire

NTA but I'm pretty sure the last time I looked at the numbers only 30% of day traders actually made profit. I'm like you in the sense of cautious investments are the way to go and slurping market drops in business you have faith in is the play. I've been really confident in Uranium and UEC, so amassing more and more of that has been nice and relaxing compared to when I was trying to chase after obvious Chinese scams before a pump and crash

$1M isn't "fuck you" money in the current year

But that was the literal punchline for a joke in a movie from 1997.
That was almost 30 years ago anon. Today one million is enough to MAYBE get you a house.... that was built on a cemetery, or infested with black mold, or has water supply poisoned by a chemical factory.

Snape kills Dumbledore.

everyone that makes more money than me should be killed and that money should go to me instead

don't forget about connections. Like implied.

Something as simple as

daddy, help me get a job

can help you skip the nightmare of having to apply for thousands of jobs
and connections/nepotism is difficult to measure and quantify
like, how many nepotisms does Munger have compared to Warren, Bezos, Musk, Gates, Trump, Biden (and his kids) etc.?
who the fuck knows, but it exists

This, but I am next in line.

reminds me for this and yeah its true
older people genuinely do not understand just how fucked the economy is compared to back in their day

Yeah, he said that back in the 1990s. So it's probably closer to first "$250,000" if said now.

I have the basics down but still feel like I'm missing a lot of info

DCA (descending cost average) into index funds with 2x leverage will beat 90% of investors, you can start and stop there if you'd like to be a casual investor.
If you want to make fast money, or want returns weekly, it will always be a gamble in some way and will require monitoring the market daily. But everything is overbought and the market is running on fumes from easy 2021 inflation money, a downturn in the next 3-6 months is essentially guaranteed.
Investopedia is a valuable resource, but ultimately investing on old fundamentals no longer has any bearing, metrics like P/E ratio are 10x what they used to be to be considered reasonable, and VIX has been permanently killed by 0DTE options

Any gacha, loot box

bunch of people who can't afford to upgrade their computers all discuss how easy it is to make money

lmfao

using (((official stats)))

Pretty much. The riskiest investments I take are leveraged etfs, I wound up slurping 2,000 shares of soxl at $9 and just decided not to look at it for a month. I think it's at 16 now? Somewhere around there. If it returns to it's pre-trade war levels I may have enough to get a new video card

Why do motherfuckers feel that the VIDEO GAME board is perfect for shit that doesn't belong here?

Feels great honestly. It's an amazing power source that has been demonized way too fucking much over the years, it's way less harmful to the environment than a lot of (((green))) energy pushes and is far safer than people give it credit for. It's honestly kind of cool seeing it finally getting the credit it's due, and my wallet is gonna enjoy the fruits of it too

I think only rich people should procreate so we wouldn't have poors in the world anymore

It's horseshit. I was born into a family that I wouldn't call wealthy but had more money than meets the eye, kind of thing you wouldn't really take notice as a kid but then you get older, what was normal stops being that, and economy just keeps shitting itself and it becomes crystal clear. Dad made piles of money and what'd I get? he shook me down for the 10 or 20 my mom would give me and actively sabotaged me. Mema wanted to leave me like 200k, her disinherited sons third? Dad and aunt came in and said lol nah, took the cars too despite having multiple, lmao even. Not a single motherfucker on my dad's, mom's, or even step families side that aint getting everything handed to them. Houses bought, tuitions paid for. etc and I didn't get the first goddamned cent from my fucking family.

Ah yeah just take 20x as long to get anywhere to save $10 on gas that will surely add up to $100,000 eventually.

every time you can invest, do so
eventually your investment vehicles (high yield savings) will get larger (stocks) and larger (property)
potentially leaps and bounds larger than you could make just by working a job on its own

yeah, that's a good point, the 100k he was referring to are in 90s (possibly even earlier) USD
that too, they're constantly redefining what "inflation" means

He's right but with 4 years of Bidenflation that 100k is now more like 150k.
RIP Munger

I just put mine in an investment fund, surely that makes more sense?

What the pic isn't telling you is that 100k in his youth is 10 trillion in today's money.

I've been lurking in the smg thread for a couple weeks now and it's like every other general, nonsensical faggotry without talking about said topic. I think all the idiots there are overemotional with their money and let their craziness out in the thread

VIX has been permanently killed by 0DTE options

what does this mean

I'm not looking to make fast money, I've just nooticed that even though the market fluctuates, it will stay steady around a certain point. a profit of a couple euro per week using specific buy and sell orders would make me happy. buy low and sell high right?
also I don't know how ETF's work if you buy shares through a broker, do you still get the yearly dividend? how do they know you've been in for a year and not just bought one day before

i hear you anon. I hear you and offer my condolences

anon, Im not saying that being born rich guarantees you easy life
I said that being born rich is a prerequisite to even have the possibility of becoming filthy rich

I have 50k in savings but I'm incompetent and I've never had an income
what do

I agree but very few people are legitimately rich in the 25-35 age group.
Doctors are destitute until they're ~30

Yeah, like 16 last i checked too.
SOXL is honestly not an awful call to throw into. It wasn't a crazy amount but sold about 700 shares of it a year or two ago when it was at 30 bucks when my average was around 12 ish, wish I had held on until it was 60 before it pulled back hard, but that's how life is.
Was thinking about getting back into it next dip with just some fun money from my dividend and a raise at work since it was always a bit amusing seeing how wild the numbers got when I'd check on it in the mornings

Buy a property then lease it.

50k wont make you any significant income passively but if you are not going to do anything with it anyway then just go for dividends stocks

I posted it but I think it's a fallacy; I don't think you can be rich without poor people around. If everyone had 1 billion in their accounts the prices would match that.

boomers have no idea how lucky they were

born in the right country

at the right time

in a family that gives you connections, jobs, money, etc. (instead of kicking you out at 18)

your investments eventually pay off

now you go around preaching platitudes

you invent this theory that individuals in a social species are entirely self-made (lol)

you use this theory to justify giving your kids nothing (except shitty life-ruining advice)

I'm just doing my usual bitching that I do when I come into these types of threads. Never thought about this shit for years and now it's just a constant infuriating reminder.

What kinda property can you buy for 100k? A shed in Detroit/Memphis/Baltimore?

I just stick it all on vti and say fuck it

I'm too scared to invest it

I have a similar story so I understand you perfectly.

Shame, that. SMG a few years back actually really helped me get my foot in the door, sucks it is retarded now

Unless you want yet another thing to stress over, yes putting it in a fund is honestly the best way to just make a little passive income on the side. You can make more if you put time into it but most traders underperfom

my parents at one point had a lot of money but my dad let my mother waste it all and cheat on him because he's a spineless cuck
now he's dying of cancer with no money for retirement and no insurance for treatment and the house still has over a hundred thousand dollars owed on it that I couldn't possibly pay even though I've lived nowhere else my entire life (and it's missing basic amenities because he never had them fixed)
Should I kill myself?

what does this mean

VIX is a market metric that measures the difference between high options bids and low options bids across a series of market segments, indicating a sentiment of overall volatility
It used to be a way of gauging what large money funds were feeling was going to happen to the market, and being able to pre-empt large shifts. A recent 'invention' has allowed the buying and selling of options that expire the same day they were issued, so that people can gamble on same-day swings for pennies. VIX's metric was never meant to account for these types of options, and thus VIX is now in a permanent illusory state of being low, indicating low volatility.

Not all ETFs offer dividends, and most experienced investors will tell you that dividends are a novelty trap and you're better off holding funds with strong fundamentals. There are qualified exceptions like Ford. The broker takes money on your initial transactions, all of the rest of the shares are yours to own and earn on. Managed funds where the firm takes a cut of the money yearly should be avoided at all costs, ETFs don't require a manager fee and represent a segment of the market (semiconductors, defense, oil, etc). Since the market tends to go up over time, investing in funds with 2x leverage maximizes return with minimal risks. The asterisk is this is averaged over decades, there is still lots of room for the market to fall.

how do you set up an investment fund?
what returns does it give?
i just want somewhere to put my money to accumulate some kind of not pitiful amount of interest and forget about it unless i need it
is there anything like that that lets me take the money out without much fuss if I have to?

Wealth is a retarded thing to select for, select for IQ instead. There is a correlation, so you will still generally get your richfags but the low IQ richfags who simply got lucky will be fucked (as it should be).

That's legit a really smart play if you're looking for long term and don't want to really be hands on with the market, can't fault you

realistically there isn't much risk if you are doing high profile stocks, i'd say you could get ~17%ish return if you learn how things work which honestly wouldn't be too bad with 50k

To be fair though the high you get from a single leveraged speculative biotech penny stock going 1,000% overnight can't be beat, it made me understand gambling addicts even as every other shit stock slowly died
Not to mention a great economy built on the back of the old world order quite literally being bombed into ruins, leaving a massive industrial and economic void with one country in the perfect position with a massive industry to step in and take over

this one is from reddit but mostly good advice for anyone trying to figure shit out

what are high profile stocks

just learn how it works

this is not advice

Just put it into something that's not going to fail and if you're really scared you can set up a stop loss order that has you automatically sell the stock if you're really scared. You need to do something that improves the growth of the money though
