    Investing is the most important thing you can do to reliably build wealth during your life. The only problem is… you inevitably suck at it…
    The S&P 500 has a historical average return of 10.4% over the past 100 years, even when including all the major stock market downturns during that time. $10,000 invested in 1972 would be worth $1.7 Million today. But look around, and you will be hard pressed to find anybody who has made themselves wealthy EXCLUSIVELY through diligent investing practices.
    Research done by Dalbar Inc an investment research firm found that the average equity fund investor only made average annualized returns of 4.25% over the past 20 years. To understand how big a difference this truly is, the same investor getting those returns would only turn their initial $10,000 investment into $83,000 today over the same 50 year period.People are terrible at investing, YOU are terrible at investing, and even finance industry professionals are buy and large… terrible at investing.
    The only real solution is to stop trying.

    The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies

      The key to big returns is not big moving stocks. It's managing risk in relationship to reward. Having the correct size on and turning your edge as many times as necessary to reach your goal. That holds true from long term investing to day trading.

      You hit it on the head. The idea of investing scares me largely because talking about money was kinda taboo in my family, but more than that, I don't have much money at all and am impulsive (especially with spending). Never did the lottery or anything like that, but I could see myself getting obsessed if I had to look at it every day. I'm a bit late for this video (age-wise), but am looking at what resources I can use and what I should do. This channel is super helpful in letting me know some factors I need to take into consideration (don't wanna meet with a FA and not have some clue as to what I want to do or need to try for).

      I think its easier said than done when you start having hundreds of thousands in your investments and are getting closer to retirement where you won't be able to just earn more money in the future. I'm not in that situation but if I continue investing, it should be in a couple decades. Even if you just invest in the S&P, seeing it go down 20% in a 3 month period and seeing a red -$150,000 or something must be really tough (I understand you would probably still see a green positive if you bought for less but you would mentally make the calc and realize how much less you have). Thats where I think I would have the largest risk of panic selling.
      Its why in many cases our parents having their pensions and investments sitting in mutual funds where they got an annual report to see the performance might have been the best thing for them (other than the fees) as they were just living their life 99% of the time and only looking at the numbers over a 2-3 days period one a year.

    The best investment advice that I've heard this year is "Be greedy when others are cautious, be cautious when others are greedy." If anything has been proven beyond a reasonable doubt in the 2020s, it is that the overwhelming majority of people don't know what good investments look like. If FTX has proven anything, it is that no one, not even the top big money investers, can tell the difference between a solid investment and a poorly concealed scam anymore.

    I love this. I'm a big fan of investing in the S&P 500. When people talk about "passive income" that is really about as passive as you can get. I just put in my extra money every month. I don't care what the market is doing. I always reinvest the dividends to buy more S&P 500, and it really is something I don't need to think about. If you want to "make money while you sleep," this is really how you do it. I'll also say that it's hard at first when you only have a couple thousand dollars in it because it seems slow, but as you keep adding money to it and as the years keep continuing onwards, it really does start to pay off.
    When I talk to others about investing, I always tell them that my investing strategy is pretty boring. There aren't any stories about reading charts or jumping onto some huge secret opportunity. It's just continually putting money into the S&P 500 and riding out the stock market over a long period of time. It really pays off in the end and is far better than spending hours at a time trying to do research, time the market and find the next stock that is "going to the moon." It may not be exciting (especially at first), but after a few years of consistent investing, it's pretty cool to see the progress that is made.

    I would like to say something that I felt the video could have emphasized more. Investment horizon is a big part of where you should put your money. If you have decades of time to wait, risk is a lot more palatable because you can buy and hold comfortably. If you're already looking to be retired, however, even one decade might not be reasonable if you're on a fixed income. So please remember that time you can leave your assets in the market is likely one of the biggest factors you should consider when investing. That's my two cents

    I’ve recently started investing and it’s really hard not to continually check in with it, look at the graphs and price etc. I’m super cautious so the “get rich quick” bros absolutely terrify me with their tips. So far, the best info and advice has been from calm, reasoned and experienced or “boring” voices but it’s a huge reassurance. Videos like this are so much more helpful in that regard.

    I highly recommend the channel Ben Felix. He explains a lot of important concepts in detail when it comes to passive investing, and provides roboust citations (research papers, not WSJ opinion pieces) for virtually every claim. Turns out, the best way to invest for 99% of people is:
    1. Buy a broad index of diversified stocks and bonds
    2. Do not look at your account
    3. Ever
    Which is basically what How Money Works explains nicely in this video.
    There are so many influencers making bogus claims about getting rich quick, but if there was a way to get rich quick in the market, they wouldn't be posting about it because they would be busy sipping martinis aboard their superyachts.

      I can summarize all of Ben's videos in one word - diversify which in itself means nothing to those wanting to learn how to invest. In the meantime, people out there are performing real analysis and making real investments. Let me clue you in, if your only investment portfolio is your retirement account then you're not a real investor. If all your investments are in index and ETF funds then you're not a real investor. I've been following all sorts of finance videos on youtube over the years. Its extremely rare to see any of them perform actual analysis such as DCF models or provide actual market insights. But they all love making videos and regurgitating whatever garbage they read most recently. How do I know this, I have a degree in finance, have worked as an analyst in the industry for a number of years and I manage my own portfolio. Financial advisors are the equivalent of used car salesmen. If you want to know what truly is going on with your car see a mechanic - not a salesperson.

    I retired at a young age long ago and have been an investor (as distinct from a speculator) for most of my life. The themes of your video are not merely good advice, they are superb advice. When I retired two investment houses tried to recruit me. But they wanted me to give flawed advice to exceptionally wealthy people and I refused. My passive income is many times what I can possibly spend so I support charities and give scholarships. I find those activities very rewarding. They are what wealth is for, at least to me. To your comments I would add only an emphatic, "NEVER SELL". Look at your passive, broadly indexed ETF regularly but just once a year. Tax time is best. Never use a broker or investment advisor. Talking heads on TV are for entertainment purposes only. Analysts exist to make fortune tellers look good, as Buffett often says. And he's right.

      To add to this, the extent to which volatility directly translates to risk is heavily dependent on your circumstances. The more you are dependent on the assets and the more specific your withdrawal timeframe, the more dangerous volatility becomes. If you are flexible with your withdrawal timeframe or not dependent on the assets at all, you can wait out volatility almost indefinitely and only fundamentals matter. Most often withdrawals during abnormal volatility is what ruins investors, not the volatility itself. As an example, imagine two retirees that need 1M in assets at retirement date to have their desired quality of life. If 1 year prior, retiree A has 14M and retiree B has 1.2M, volatility is a mild inconvenience for A but could ruin B's retirement completely if he is not careful.
      That being said, having the ability to wait out volatility only protects you when there is high volatility accompanied by acceptable fundamentals. If the fundamentals deteriorate in a permanent way, then you get screwed either way. True risk is a severe or permanent deterioration of fundamentals, and volatility may or may not be correlated.

    Beating the market should not even possible, since markets are supposed to be efficient. They may not be 100% efficient, but they are efficient enough to make it so costly that it is, in fact, not profitable for most market agents (ie : fund manager should beat the markets, but will spend a big part of his performance in analysts' wages and other fees...).
    And, for regular people : If you have money to invest, you have a good chance to be someone who earns money with a job. 100h of research on stocks "costs" you 100h you could have used in your job making more money there...

    I buy shares that look oversold at a glance (just simple RSI 14), if they have a negative PE value and go down hard I move them to a separate account and forget about them, if they have a positive PE value and go down hard I double down on them. If they go up 5%+ I sell, if they go up 25%+ I sell the initial investment and put the rest of them in that other account as well.
    I'm almost always in the red but the key is that I buy two shares for 100 bucks each every second week, so my portfolio just keeps growing and over time the 5% profit sales slowly start compounding (so while all my currently owned shares are in the red the account itself is in the green). It also helps that this is just 1/3 of my total savings and that I have a savings outlook of several years combined with the fact that I treat my investments as a hobby so I sleep soundly at night.
    Anyway this has netted me like 20% returns y/y (sometimes more) but it's allot of work and there's no guarantee at all that it would work for someone else, I have been investing for a decade and I have gotten burned hard several times so I have a good idea of what to avoid (but no clue on what to look for). It also doesn't work when you manage sums above 50-100k USD as the work load managing all those small positions get's stupid, and at that point you have so many different shares that you might as well be putting the money in 2-3 investment funds instead as you start to get averaging effects.
    This obviously isn't financial advice, it's just what I do.

    2. Buy stocks in the biggest and oldest companies in your industries - there's a reason they've been around this long.
    3. Buy stocks that pay dividends.
    4. Buy during a downturn but don't try to time the market - just decide on a good price and buy at or near it.
    5. Sell after the stock recovers but again don't try to time the market - just pick a good price and sell at or near it.
    6. Don't second guess your decisions.

    I think a lot of poor investing comes from people having the wrong idea of the stock market. If you don't already have a ton of money from the get go, you probably are going to spend your entire working life building your portfolio to an amount you can retire on. It also doesn't help that many companies are now staying privately traded for a longer time. So smaller/newer investors are more commonly going to miss out on that huge growth from the ground floor. Most people eventually will just stick to S&P 500 companies since they have high cash flow and the government will bail them out everytime shit hits the fan.

I came to the conclusion that day trading is more profitible becuase you are compounding your profits and entering the next trade at a cheaper price while the long term holder would just make a decent profit after holding longtterm if they made a good pick on the asset. however the longterm holder does not compount there profits. The important part is having a proper strategy that has a really good win to lose rate.

If you put your money into the S and P 500 or something similar like VOO, on average you'll actually perform closer to that 10%. The only way the average is as low as 4% is if people are getting out in a panic or they have too short an investment horizon and didn't give themselves an appropriate amount of time to offset the risk. At least that's how I see it.

    I knew about the time in the market thing but didn't expect that even timing the market correctly could make you underperform

      Well, it depends on what you're investing in. If you invest in something with heavy or average dividends, this is more likely than if you invest in something low in dividends and focused on growth. And I would hazard a guess and suggest this may also be true if you aren't reinvesting your dividends as well.

      @Paige Dubis Same here! It's strange how people talk about all the profits, they've been making through investing in cryptocurrency, while am here not making any profit at all. Please can someone put me through on the right path.

      Most time have knowledge or insight about a particular activity can as well be a pleasing exercise. I can boldly say that crypto and forex trading is one of the profitable money exchange services that elevates investors and their financial status.

      @@ateeaaljubory5765 You are right, the market is profiting if you are using a good broker or account manager to help you with your trading or provide good signals. I currently trade with the guidance of Expert Mrs Ethel Arthur, Her management team is quite impressive so far.. With my 4k deposit l've made over $28,400 with just 10% charges..

      OMG, I'm glad to see someone finally on RUclips who employs Mrs Ethel Arthur trading strategies. Her personality draws me in and I find myself reading all of her articles from now. She's great to follow if you are looking for guidance or approach on growing your Crypto knowledge.
