Loads? 10% consistently? Can you name some?
Yes I could list them, but you don't pay me enough to do homework for you. The Internet does exist, friend.



I'm too lazy to open the brokerage account for their tickers but Franklin Templeton has a "dragon fund" paying that 10, so does JPM that has one that specializes in mezzanine financing to midcap firms. And there are several more dealing in everything from oil (for example I know royal dutch shell has a subsidiary fund at 9percent , but I haven't touched oil personally since before the pandemic) to others specializing in emerging markets, to some specializing in rare-earth commodities.





Each of these has a reason they pay well. For example the JPM fund does mezzanine lending out of their NYC offices to companies between series a and b funding, companies who must pay a premium because of their valuations being tied to locked in privleged stock, and them having too low a valuation for traditional financing through investment banks. Hence the high return.



Anyway, I'm going to bed. I've done too much as it stands. Enjoy your web surfing on the topic, friend.

:mjcry:. I need a solid plan to retire in my mid 40s.

Lol stocks, I am down.
No debt..make good money but corporations can fire u at any time.

If you're in your early 20s, join your local police department. Complete 20, 25 years and you can retire in your mid 40s.

Yeah, definitely sad to say a lot of folks ain't going to be retiring. Did you guys see that video of that 70 year old security guard trying to stop that conflict/robbery in the mall?

People keep thinking they're going to be a special case, but they ain't setting themselves up.

Nobody to take care of them, no money saved up, no money set aside for their health care, no reliable job, etc. You can't not be smart with your money and expect to retire.

Not how much you make, but how much you spend.


Also....Time is money.

Can you spend 20+ hours doing what you want and still have room and board?

If so, you are wealthier than you know.

Get in your car breh. Make a left out your street. Hit the next stop sign and make a right. Follow that for 4 blocks. Make a left, another left, then a right. Now you on Ski Mask Way.
