  5. I'm captivated by the insightful wisdom in this piece. A book with similar subjects opened new avenues for my personal growth. "The Art of Meaningful Relationships in the 21st Century" by Leo Flint

  7. I watch several YouTube videos on how to trade in the stock market but haven't made any head start because they are either talking some gibberish or sharing their story of how they made it and I do not want to make mistakes by taking risks in my own hands

  12. Turns out this analysis is wrong. Ptoblem is that this editor doesnt have a good understanding of gold and is looking at it from the modern conventional wisdom of gambling

  20. Gold isnt like stock or crypto where its easy to buy and sell, if your gonna buy gold, dont plan on making much money for prob atleast 5-10 years. Gold is great, but you got to be careful. Try and buy no smaller than 5 grams if you can either. 1oz is usually prefered if ypu have the cash.

  21. It’s always a good option to keep some gold. Well with the current market situation and everything at stake with the present economy, I’d say you’re better off staying away from stocks fr awhile or better still reach out to an adviser for guidance.

  23. Every person illustrated in this reveals they are weak, no faith or confidence and deny the science, they wear masks. STUPID The gold exchange is filled with fools. So where do I buy bullion? I don't want to deal with fools.

  25. I am trying to avoid making any new buys at this point in other not to get sucked into a bear market trap.It's tough making money in stocks when institutional investors are the driving force behind the selling.. although I read an article of people that grossed profits up to $150k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

  29. Starting early is the best way of getting ahead of built wealth, investing remains a priority. The Gold, Silver, Crypto and Stock market has plenty of opportunities to earn a decent payouts, with the right skills and proper understanding of how the market works. I, My clients $ students have been able to accumulate 25 BTC despite the state of the market…!💰❤️💵

  31. The wisest thing that should be on everyone’s mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in Gold, silver and digital currencies👉(BTC, ETH, SHIBA..). 💰❤️💚

  32. Over the past few months, the price of gold has been going haywire. You can see it on this chart. As the coronavirus pandemic took hold in March, the price crashed, alongside stocks, and then quickly regained.

    Then, a frenzy of investment drove up the price to all-time highs. On August 4th, it shot past $2,000 a troy ounce for the first time ever, before another week of big swings.

    The gold stash in London is rivaled only by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, which holds the world’s largest hoard of physical gold.

    In other places around the world, gold is a common investment as well.

    so they're using these December gold futures to give themselves options and protect against market turmoil.

    But gold has slipped lately after a long run-up, a reminder that momentum in this market can change quickly.

  33. I wasn't financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future!

  44. "Would you like me to give you a formula for success? It's quite simple, really: Double your rate of failure. You are thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all. You can be discouraged by failure or you can learn from it, so go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because remember that's where you will find success."
    — Thomas J. Watson

  45. Buy gold at the start of 2023. The U.S. dollar index (dxy indes) will drop from 103 to 74 as hyperinflation rages. Don't get suckered in because they'll claim inflation is falling coming into the midterm elections only to have it reaccelerate into hyperinflation in 2023.

  46. Choosing the right industry to invest is very critical, Most times, it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $83k per month. Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years to doubt that opportunities are bound in the financial markets. The only thing is to know where to focus.
