I'm almost there. Am looking to put 10% in just as a 'safety net.'silver and gold
I kick myself over Amazon and crypto as well. I've been thinking of putting $1000 into an ipo or 2 each year hoping one becomes the next unicorn.We've been SINK (single income, no kids) for 5 years now, plus I took a major pay cut, so other than existing land investments, plus maxing my Roth IRA, Roth 401K and 401K -- plus my +$6K 'make up' plan begins in just a few more years -- trying to stay 25% bond/money, 25% employer stock (regional bank), 50% stock (about 20% non-Americas).
I miss the crypto bus. That was on me. I also should have put money into Amazon and a few others.

Probably better putting it all on black. #notracistI kick myself over Amazon and crypto as well. I've been thinking of putting $1000 into an ipo or 2 each year hoping one becomes the next unicorn.
Will you be saying the same about Spotify, DropBox, etc. in another 10 years?Probably better putting it all on black. #notracist
I wish I had a surplus of disposable income when I was looking at Netflix, Tesla, and Bitcoin back 10 years ago.
Feel like both of those aren't "moaty" enough. They both have several good enough quality competitors vs. a faceberg. I hope there's a rebellion against them at some point. Rooting for some geek who can make something better.Will you be saying the same about Spotify, DropBox, etc. in another 10 years?
I put a good amount into my 401k which is a target fund. My brokerage account I'm a bit more risky.I put a big chunk of every paycheck straight into my brokerage account and use dollar cost averaging to buy the same stocks and ETFs. Blue chips, QQQ, XLF, XLE, etc. I have no need for this money any time soon and my tolerance for risk is plenty high in any near term movements. Since 2010 a lot of these are up in the vicinity of 60-90% with some having doubled.
I bought FCX during the collapse in oil prices and it's returned nearly 80% since.
Keep it simple and stop trying to time the market.
I don't have the same gut feeling about those two. I use onedrive over dropbox. I do love spotify but there is a lot of competition out there and tons of artists that complain of the pay spotify provides... sorta scary.Will you be saying the same about Spotify, DropBox, etc. in another 10 years?
A contrarian, I like it!I put my money in Toys R US gift cards and Bitcoins.
Yuge believer in index funds ~>50-80% of my total allocation, I keep telling myself to tilt more to value and small cap, but meh. This bull is getting a little too long for my liking. Feel like it's greater fool territory so kind of tapering for the next "crash"
I enjoy playing individual stocks so several quasi Berkshire holdings: WFC, KO (naturally), AAPL, then mostly fun short term technical chart plays with a dash of oversold value-ish gut plays like Under Armour for $13.00 (a whopping 15 shares should've been more conviction with that one, ha)
Ever since I moved my Roth to Merrill Edge I’ve 30 free transactions in a month easy enough to swing trade. One of my fav long term holdings, MCHP, channels beautifully ~10% of my position of it I’ll buy and sell intermittently. Early in May noticed it way oversold, in... out last week. Rinse repeat.Smart man. Index funds are the way to go. You’ll get a blend of value and growth stocks too.
