I hope especially you young people out here read this
I'm over 3 decades old by now and I WISHED someone would have bothered to tell me to invest in stocks when I was entering the workforce and getting a salary - I'd probably be rolling in dough now.
2 weeks ago I invested in Nvidia stock, since the prospect of it going up in value is there and it'll probably continue to climb with the neverending need for new graphic processors (especially now that AI garbage generators has entered the fray)
Within those 2 weeks my investment grew by 1500€. For doing nothing at all. Easiest money of my life!!
Now, before you get some massive FOMO, remember:** investing in the stock market is a gamble.**
It's much less of a gamble than, say, taking your hard-earned cash to a nearby casino and feeding slot machines in hopes you'll get a GRAND payout (I'd know, I've worked in the slots industry - the bank always wins so don't even bother, it's a predatory industry funding itself on the backs of it's addicted customers - don't be one of them), but it's a gamble nontheless.
Companies can lose value from one day to another, and their stock with them, meaning your investment will decrease with it
Most often though there is a cause or reason, like a company shitting the bed politically or economically
Alternatively, you can hire a stock broker to invest your money for you, but that also means they'll get a percentage off your gains.
Don't forget that you have to pay taxes on your gains when you sell your stocks and take the money out. Because apparently, we aren't taxed enough yet with all the taxes that already exist.
Why am I talking about this boring old people stuff?
Well, if you're like me and have some dreams and haven't given up the one where you get to own a house and some ground, and maybe some other nice material things that cost money, you might be interested in how to acquire more money with having to do almost nothing to achieve that.
So take this wisdom and run!
