Is it weird that I low-key look forward to being old and retired

@Stereoguy are you suggesting he wait til 65 to goto school? Lol

@Stereoguy oh ok, I was like🚩

@Picklebobble2 I made 80% returns in the last 7 months. Sure, there are many more who lose than those who make money consistently, but there sure is a method to it.
If you gamble, you'll probably lose most of what you invest. Equities can have the best return in terms of risk. Most people don't exactly invest. They speculate, based on rumours and trends

Saying that the stock market hasn't given positive returns in the last 20 years and assuming that will continue is like saying the UK will not continue with economic growth and development.

The point is that after a certain age, you have to make your money work for you. Compounding will make you far richer than you ever will be just working a 9-5

@Nomad7 And statistically you’d get better returns on a day at the track !

Way too many gamblers and sharks out there

@Picklebobble2 I tell you once again, this isn't true

I'm not speaking of trading, but buying a stock based on fundamentals is like buying a house when real estate is down and waiting for the market to realize its true value

Unfortunately, people who do not invest have either lost money or have seen enough people lose money to never bet themselves. But that doesn't validate the statement that you're more likely to make returns betting on racehorses

@hunkalove I hope so too, I exercise regularly now

@somedude15 So did I. May have contributed to it.
