Just my .02, as I'm in a comparable position. With M1 I look about once a month, see where my gains are, and re-distribute the profits from one stock to my preferred 2. So I've probably move around 2k in M1, yes I'll have to pay capital gains, but whatever.
For your other stuff, how many positions do you have? And how many do you really believe in? Cut them down to 5-10, and you can may re-distribute the gains into your preferred stocks. I'm working on that over the past months, as my income situation is a bit perilous at this moment.
Also, unless it's for rent, CC, or just to kill off some debt....don't sell your material possessions.....you can always add money to the stock market, and it's not like Tech sector is going to go away. You're looking at quite a few tech companies IPO'ing next month......some of them disrupters.....
Just my .02 entertainment purposes so on and so forth.
Yeah I feel you on that. Just gotta get a legit job to get some steady income to pay off that cc debt and other bills. Was doing food delivery apps but after getting into my second accident this month last night, both not at fault, figure maybe it's best that I'm not out driving around and find something else to earn money. Find whatever I can so I won't have to sell any stocks. Just can't buy any for now until my cash reserve gets stacked back up.
