I’m gonna have to look Into it a little since I’ve never invested into the stock before. I’m guessing it’s good to know the ins and outs before even considering.


What these nikkas doing is more like trading breh.


Invest in uber and twitter and keep buying the dip. And there are plenty of stocks under 30 bucks that offers dividend.

You gotta like companies who have no competition. Starbucks takes in the 20 billions of revenue or something like that and Dunkin Donuts is #2 and they aren't close to that. Nowhere close.

So Starbucks will be around forever. It's another reason why I love Boeing. They only have like one competitor and they are in the military.

I’m gonna have to do some research on it cause it will be my first time entering stocks. What are the best apps for it?

How much are you willing to spend? You could invest in a major company or two and just let it sit. You'd likely have nice returns.

For me, I have certain companies I'm in long term like Disney and then other stocks where I'd flip it like restaurants/casinos

I’m not trying to invest in much since it would be my first time, I was watching that video posted a few pages back where the guy stated what to invest in with $100 but is that even worth it?

:dead: breh not to be a dikkhead but theres not a hell of a lot youre gonna do with 100 bucks

open an account with fidelity and buy half FSPGX and half FXAIX and forget about it

you might see dudes talking about turning 1 thousand into 5 thousand but if it was easy everyone would do it. 80 percent of those dudes just lose their money

What’s the best least amount to invest in? $1000 for a first timer is a bit much since I wouldn’t want to lose all of that just in case the stock goes low. I wouldn’t mind a slow gradual increase instead of just hitting the jackpot the first go around.

buy 1 share of SPY and 1 share of DIA, thats 500 bucks. thats the S&P and the DOW in the form of one stock. the more you have to invest, the more you can buy

Then you should probably not invest in individual stocks. Invest in a fund or something.

I like fukking with individual stocks because it gives me freedom and whether I win or lose I like to be able to read up on shyt and do as I please.

But I also treat it like the casino. I don't put in more money than I'd be willing to lose.

If you are concerned about losing say $1000 then just invest in a fund or something that tracks the whole S&P 500, over time it will increase damn near guaranteed

Bro just invest what you can every month. If you can only save $100 every month then just stick with that for now. Look at VOO, VTI, VTSAX or other ETFs that invest in the total market or S&P500. That $100 will grow overtime and you’ll get dividends so it’s better than keeping it in a savings account.

Yea I wouldn’t want to blow big money at one shot, that’s why I would like to go low the first round. If I would gain anything in the future then I would consider investing a little more. Just trying to figure out the best scenario to invest in for a beginner.

I keep seeing people say don’t use robinhood and it’s what I’m starting with for now. Seems simple and easy enough and has the stocks I’m looking into. What can go wrong?

I got burned from them a few times due to their site crashing, delays and lag and plus their features are limited from what I remember. Once you move over to a new platform like TDAmeritrade it’s night and day.
