Trump coin up 12% the last few hours
I wonder what is causing the trump coin to jump during the early morning hours on the east coast. It is up 12%. It had a spike to $8.70 around 5:15am ET. Smells a bit fishy to me. It has been hovering between $7.5 and $8 the last week. I …
I feel like my math is wrong because there is no way this is possible.
I am 20 years old. If I put $7000 in my IRA and invest in an S&P 500 (expecting an average rate of return of 10% per year) when I'm 65 I'll have over 500k???? Is this right??? Or is it not compound interest? Is the yield lower? I currently …

I’m 16 years old and currently in high school and I plan to go to college after I graduate (which is next yea) right now, I’ve saved up about $300, and I’m debating whether I should invest it right now or focus on saving more to reach around $10k by …

Since the Micro E-mini is 1/10 that value, it's priced at just $5 times the value. So if the S&P 500 index is 2,950, the Micro …
Opinions on gold? Why not go "all-in?"
I'm pretty new to self-investing and I've been looking at different options lately such as stocks and crypto. I came across a video about gold and looked a little more at the charts. Is there any reason for someone to not just take a large chunk of their wealth and …
Are really 457b gains tax free?
So I work for the state government, recently finished training. On one of the last days, the company that manages our 457b came in and gave a short talk. They basically explained it as a 401k with no employer match, which... I kind of thought was the main benefit. Also …
Dividends to fund IRA over contribution limits?
So I know the S&P will beat a high-yield dividend fund (let's say a covered call fund like JEPI) over time. But if your contribution limit is $7k lets say, would it make sense to dump into a dividend fund, so that later, you can use the dividend to reinvest …

Do I need a financial advisor to move on
Worked up to lower seven digits through pure delusion and luck but I never had an advisor. About half of it is liquid and in gold. Where do I go next if I want to be completely hands off and am a conservative investor? I do not want to bet/day …
