    I'm thinking to put some cash in stocks, I was at Salt Shack and i overheard some friends saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?

Thank you! Edit: I understand you are selling a course in the description but more the fact you are not actively pushing it in your viewers faces and giving them a load of bs is appreciated. haha.

    You only lose money when you sell your stock holdings. So even when it’s down 5%, you’re holding the stock for the long term gain which should trend upwards.

    no one knows when the market is going to hit its peak, nor do we know when it is going to bottom out, but ideally, it is best to consult a well knowledgeable advisor both for short and long term investing

    True, a lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $550k to nearly a million as of today

    Safest approach i feel to tackle it 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. its important to seek the guidance of an expert

    Agreed, It's essential to diversify your portfolio. While quality stocks are a solid foundation, you should also consider other assets to spread risk. Thankfully, I can attest to the success of this approach aided by professional guidance seeing my portfolio of $330k grow by 15% this year alone... maybe you should do the same.

    Assumption here is that people who dont invest in stock market dont save any money and just spend it buying useless goods. Wrong! People save and earn interest in bank compounded, safely earning 5-6% guaranteed and that too in tax free accounts - like the UK ISA. Try to beat that. While not perfect, no investment is, one does have lots of safety at the bank till FSCS protection of £85K and is also readily available, irrespective of mkt conditions.

    The point is to invest now for a much higher quarterly payment in the future due to the 5-10%+ dividend cagr. $1 million invested now will pay 33,000 in the first year and rise thereafter, hitting $60k in around ten years. This seperates schd type investments over yield traps. Personally I put down 2.5m$ on few ETFs, still diversifying. it was this time last year I made my first million with a liquid 200k. handed it to a trader here in CA, I get weekly pay out which I put back on long term ETF's. Tesla will be a huge buy for me when the market bottoms.

    Don't look at which stocks to buy, do as I do, monitor a single stock to make sure it's 1) stable but with enough volatility 2) it's fairly secure as not likely to go completely bust. Then all you need to is buy into the stock as it's dipping, so right now I have around 4.7k in my account and my first trade is £200, then if it increases 1%, I sell and put in £200 again straight away etc. if at £200 invested, it goes down 4%, I'll buy another £400, then if it goes down 5% from whatever your average is at £600 (total invested) I'll put £1200 more (so double what your investment is worth etc). Following this rule, I am already 12.6% up this year.
