    📌Do what everybody else is doing if you are okay with only having what everybody else has.Information that will pay you everyday, you've got to stop saving all your money.
    Venture into investing some, if you really want financial stability.
    Choose to grow and elevate your mind by studying audios, videos, attending conferences that will give you the edge!

      Lately I’ve been thinking of buying cryptocurrency for retirement, I’ve set asides $350k to invest but along the line,I usually get cold feet, maybe because I have no idea what I’m doing, please I could really use some guidelines.

    Great content, thank you for doing this! I have a quick question: Why is it A LOT harder to go to the buy-side when you are 30/32/etc? Is 30/32/etc a random number or buy-side view those ages as OLD?

    • @dac8939
      @dac8939 Год назад

      I have friends in the sector but short answer is, only if you are trying to break into the industry. If you have experience then moving to similar roles, even if not higher paying or higher 'title' level of authority is not a problem. Due to them not wanting to train someone much older and fact that they can chose many younger people with experience on buyside.

    Top knotch content! The idea of a search fund sounds really interesting. If you could expound more on how the intricacies work, what it takes to be part of one and maybe have a testimonial, that would be great. Learn a lot, thanks!!

    I've been diligently working, saving, and investing toward financial independence and early retirement, but the economy since the pandemic has eaten up the majority of my $3 million portfolio. I want to know: Do I keep contributing to my portfolio in these unstable markets, or do I look into alternative sectors?

    • @charlesbrown-qx6uw
      @charlesbrown-qx6uw 5 месяцев назад

      Just try to diversify your portfolio to other market sectors, that way your investment is balanced and you don’t get to make so much losses.
