First off,
Do you need ANY of it to pay your bills? It doesn't sound like it so you should be good to invest.
How old are you, what is your timeline for a great return? Or, are you simply wanting to preserve buying power?
Do you own your a home?
Do you already own investment real estate...

Why RIVN? why do you think this is going to be a good company in time, what do they do, build, or deliver that nobody else does?
My 2 cents, just like building a company.... find a Nitch that NOBODY else occupies, determine if there is a NEED, and what you are going to do fills it and can't be d...

re: What Bitcoin ETF are you buying?
Posted by oneg8rh8r on 3/4/24 at 5:29 pm
FBTC
They are only 1 of 2 that actually have self-custody and hold their own coins, everyone else is using Coinbase from what I'm told.
If you look at the performance on TD micro charts between FBTC and IBIT, it has FBTC earning more over the time since inception.
Their rates are going to c...
re: Why is Bitcoin soaring?
Posted by oneg8rh8r on 2/29/24 at 1:40 am
If you are just attempting to figure out BTC at this point, you are late to the dance......VERY LATE.
You had better do some video watching and open your mind to a different way of thinking about money.
The good news is it is never too late.
The real news is BTC has finally received world w...

I have a Delta Reserve/Amex that has earned me Platinum status, but I had to spend a butt load to get there and keep doing so to keep it.
I really enjoyed my Cap 1 Savor card before I got the AMEX as we dine out a lot. I was getting cash back/points towards purchases that I would swap for gift c...

re: How often do you use alarms to wake up?
Posted by oneg8rh8r on 1/30/24 at 10:41 pm
Prior to retirement I needed one as there were many 12-14 hr days, or some days where 2 hr naps were all I'd get.
NOW.....When my body says "Are you going to get up and do something? I'm tired of this bed!"...
re: 400x your expected monthly expenses for retirement
Posted by oneg8rh8r on 1/22/24 at 8:14 pm
400x is excessive, but....
You should be debt free to begin with, if you are not this doesn't really work.
You could get away with 250 -300 based on your quality of life, but monthy living expenses, adjusted for inflation and taxes is a must.
There are a lot of ASSUMPTIONS in that as well. ...

re: Are there still affordable vehicles?
Posted by oneg8rh8r on 1/22/24 at 4:12 pm
Exactly, people that spent the extra money typically had the money to do the recommended maintenance when prescribed and fix things when they went bad.
And you get a nicer car to boot as all those extra do amount to much more cost on the resale of a car over 8 yrs old with higher miles.

Go find an 2010-2018 Honda whatever fits your needs. Go get something with 90-150K miles and go through the CARFAX with a fine-tooth comb and look for things out of the ordinary. Preferable no accidents and find one that was fully loaded and you should have yourself a really nice car for 10-15K....

He seems like a great coach and this MAY turn out to be the next Bama Great......but:
-He is going to have to rebuild that program from the bottom up and the inside out on his own with his own flavor.
-Statistics don't bode well for that.
