People will drop $100 at a bar with no hesitation. But the second you bring up investing $100 they say “it’s too risky. Wealth isn’t for everyone 😂

The Truth
Cowards. :scust: life is a gamble
I wouldn’t call them cowards but true, everything is a gamble and a risk. Just telling you how I see it from my end. People want quick rewards to build confidence in the process. They could easily put it into a savings account that draws interest and be more satisfied

Investing $100 has seldomly made someone rich. Starting a brand for less than $100 is a different story :sas2:

Yeah this is dumb. A hundred bucks can be a hell of a night. A 100 bucks investing is going to do what exactly? I know we are talking long term but in the short term 100 in a night partying >>> anything you can do investing a hundred bucks. Outside of making a 100 buck parlay or going to a casino.

I'll take a sip of this drink in hopes that LLC, entrepreneur and investor twitter/tiktok dies some day.

Instant gratification is why, the other requires patience and time before yielding any success or fruits. It all comes down to self discipline

You invest that $100 into an ETF (a safe and steady investment) on Robinhood every month instead of spending it at the bar, and you’ll be smiling in ten years. It’ll grow into a nice lil egg.

shyt… just take $50 of it and spend it at the bar. Invest the other half. You’ll still be smiling in ten years, just not as much as if you invested the $100.

Starting at $100 and continuing to grow the investment over the course of a lifetime will pay off more for most folks
than betting on a hugely successful business.


You mean 20k right?

What types of things do you think you'd be able to purchase with that kind of money 20 years from now? These scenarios never account for inflation.

You're better off investing $100/Mo in your health(both mental and physical) and focus on a new career path that could net you an extra 20k. Invest half of that a year and be in a much better place in 5 years.

9/10 times it's going to be easier to make an extra 20k than it is to save 20k.
Skilling up and increasing your income should be a given.
Along the way the goal should be to eliminate expenses and increase
investments into various tax advantaged accounts then move into investing into
taxable accounts.
Start early.
Invest often.
Seek promotions/career growth
Avoid lifestyle inflation.
Invest the rest (into whatever you want real estate, stocks, coins, a side business etc.)

Over the course of a lifetime this will pay off A LOT.
