Because you beginner. Investments like these aren't for fucking 20 days. They're for 1-5 years. You already bought, now sit on your ass and wait till the economy goes up and collect your 1-10%.

>>1053795
but the economy is gaurenteed to go down? how do I know canada will ever recover in a substantial way? could i just pull out the majority of the money, because id rather not lose any money then gain?

>>1053804
You definitely could, and just lower your head and bow out like everyone else in life. You don't invest if you don't want to take risks.

this is in response to people on here who say things like
>the point of money is to spend it
>why save up all this money to be old and not use it when you still can
and so on
can't really enjoy life when you wear a mask 40 hours a week

Unless you look into ERE and learn how to save money, you will never be able to have enough money while also working an easy job, allowing you little stress and lots of money per month that you are saving.

The middle class is mostly tradesmen or white-collar workers who make something like $45K-$100K and have no idea how to use money wisely. Doctors are awfully guilty of this. Make friends with any doctor, and you'll realize that they haven't a clue how to manage their money and are actually in debt, all while making $150K-$350K because they bought a BMW, a Lexus, and a $1.5M home.

You can live on a job that pays $12/hr part-time that requires no education or skills. You just have to know how to optimize every single need you have in your life before your money touches it.

It would be amazing to be able to free-lance from your laptop, traveling around the world with no boss, wife, or loans to deal with. I'm still trying to figure out how to do it. Free-lancing is a bit funky.

Don't think about it too much because you will become depressed.
after you understand that money isn't worth the effort, you understand that NOTHING!!! worth the effort, you will just sit in your room all day playing vidya

Uh what?

You speak of freedom as if musicians and artists get discounts on needed goods. They dont

Rich = free

I grew up in a 1.3 million dollar home and now I'm living out of my car. I will do WHATEVER it takes to surpass that and as young as possible so I can get back to being a human.

If you don't mind me asking what you do for a living? From what you wrote seems like you are living well! Good on you anon!

My intention wasn't to showboat my position in life, even where I'm at I still feel helpless and have a feeling I'm not being wise with my finances.

I'm an in-house graphic designer, excelling in photoshop and premiere. (age 27)

I recommend buying ethereum

China was supposed to be growing more than they did.

Oil is cheap so people sell more oil to keep making the same money but that makes oil cheaper so people sell more.

I should have explained more but I didn't want to bore people. There are a lot of factors as to why they're both nearly 60 have worked 30 years a piece and don't have a dime to show for it.

The reason why is because my parents didn't budget together, my mum kept her money and my dad kept his which isn't what my dad wanted but my mother is a very overpowering narcissistic type of person so here are some things that happened along the way

>parents poor had no money back in 1984 just your regular working people
>bus they used to get in the morning went past a private school
>my dad told my 3rd world mother "this is where rich people go" when she'd ask him what that facility/building is
>her stubbornness and narcissism flared up at this and she was adamant of sending the first child there despite not being able to afford it
>lies to school that only the father is working and she is stay at home so they can get money off the fees
>elder brother gets into the school
>school finds out when they tried the same thing with my sister the 2nd child, so they have to pay the money they owe
>still with overtime my mother would earn £3.2k after tax and my dad is a bus driver he gets around £2.2 after tax
>mother has HORRIBLE spending habits, no care for money at all
>had to get sister married for some reason so they took a loan out on the house in 2008 when only £18,000 was left to pay on the mortgage (smart move right?) just so they can have some extravagant wedding
>2012 dad comes into some inheritance money approximately 30k, mum goes on power trip and says we must build big house back home
>so spineless dad goes along with it despite me and my siblings telling them to pay off the mortgage
>they buy a piece of land which is huge and then decide to build a house upon it which they took out another loan on the house for EIGHTY FUCKING GRAND
>dad is paying everything for the house, mortgage is 1.3 a month + the bills so around 1.8 goes out of his pay

Getting a degree for wanting to start a business? What drugs are you on? What you need is an apprenticeship and work expirience to get hands on knowledge of your field, EE for example, a business idea is Installation and Comissioning of domestic electronics, you can start your own business but you need expirience, not a degree.

Get an EE degree, then your MBA at nightschool. Or better yet get hired and make the company pay for your night school. Then, work the industry for a while, make money, then if you have a good idea, work a side project.

Starting your own company is ill conceived, especially when you can bypass the 10 years of "software engineering" with an MBA to become an executive. Then just break into VC. It's easier said than done, but an engineer with an MBA is a hot asset, and headhunters will be aware of you.

>>1053643
you're not going to be able to design on your own without a reputable degree
experience isn't enough, you actually need knowledge you won't be able to teach yourself

try 4chans /law/ board... they'd probably help you

>I want to give somebody free life changing advice but I worry if they're too stupid to use it right they'll get damaged and blame me.

>I want to help out some moron who may possibly turn on me when they inevitably fuck up

Why on fucking earth are you doing this? Why oh why would anyone do such a thing? Just stay the fuck away you dumb cunt.

self bump

Non-OP bump.

God no. Don't invest in real estate right now.

Watch the luxury real estate prices in Denver. (Penthouses and such). They're currently hyper inflated, and when they adjust by about 30% it's a safe time to start investing in real estate and it's derivative instruments.

You must be an absolute madman
