New investor, 21, just joined in late june. Lost around 3 years worth of wages and practically liquidated from calls that I held a day too long and crashed (thankfully no margins). Anyways, I'm going to continue investing but much more safely from now on. What are some etfs, diversifications, etc. that I should do? I was thinking of VOO or high dividend stocks like coca cola and pepsi co. Can anyone push me in a direction of what to look into to not lose it all again and to build up wealth over the years?
In the mean time I'll be harvesting tax losses for one or two decades.
No more gambling for me, just real investments :)
