  • Great Video. I'm a 52-year-old QA Specialist at Confluera, with an annual income of $150,000. Although I do have a retirement account, I'm keen on exploring short-term investment opportunities as I prepare to shift to part-time work in the near future. What would be the most suitable strategy to achieve my goals?

    Munger and Buffett have both achieved an incredible feat with Berkshire. They've turned thousands to billions, and have made a lot of people wealthy in the process. I really saw the potential of the stock market by reading Berkshire's annual letters. I recently sold my $674k apartment in the Bel Air area and I'm hoping to throw it into the stock market. I just don't want to lose everything.

    Taking early inspiration from Warren Buffett on the significance of solid asset diversification and risk management—it cannot be emphasised enough. I've been working on growing my $300K portfolio for some time now and would greatly appreciate any additional suggestions

    Warren Buffett underscores the vital importance of understanding compounding and adopting a long-term perspective for financial success, as leveraging the compounding effect and maintaining a extended investment horizon enable individuals to accumulate substantial wealth through patience and strategic planning.

    The best way to find that balance between saving and living is by investing. Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth and smart people will always try to harness any investment opportunity not minding the risks involved.

    "Testing, one million, two million..." not only excel in investing but also in stand up comedy. Amazing human being
  • The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies
  • @Raymondjohn2
    Didn't Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett invent the strategy of buying/investing when the market is low and also buying/investing when the market is high? As Warren Buffet said, he has seen this happen many times in his life. Not an investor. My wife and i never earned more than a middle class salary. We plan to get retired at 58 with a stock portfolio worth $4M. We have never sold so much as one share of stock...
  • @tunnelvision3246
    I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $450k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point.
