@Up-a-Creek you assume that people will give money to anyone who is asking. When you invest in funds, you look at their track record. Higher the lock in period higher the expected return for investor. And usually there is a minimum return clause where investor has the option to pull out even during the lock in period if returns are way down. These are 1-2mil plus investors, they aren't stupid and have their own accountants and attorneys that look into it before investing.

Putting well-earned money into the stock market can't be over emphasised for first-time investors, unlike a bank where interest is sure thing! Well, basically times are uncertain, the market is out of control, and banks are gradually failing. I am working on a ballpark estimate of $2M for retirement, and I have a good 6-figure loaded up for this, could there be any opportunity for a boomer like me??

Some individuals minimize the importance of counsel until they make regrettable mistakes. A few summers ago, following a protracted divorce, I needed a significant push to keep my firm afloat. I looked for licensed advisors and found someone with the highest qualifications. She has contributed to my reserve increasing from $175k to $450k despite inflation.

I have challenged myself to put away 50% of my monthly income into stock options which is quite easy since I live frugal without debt. I work as an account executive, and make over $20000. $10000 goes into dividends, and the other $10000 covers my my food plus living expenses. I am seeing improvements in my portfolio, dividends look certain, but I have to attribute this to only to guidance of a licensed fund manager who allocates funds to a plethora of assets. I have to stay disciplined, and remember that I’m in it for the long term. Good luck to everyone and thanks for the great video.

The last part is a disaster. Everything else is well explained. Unbiased. Last part... if investors ask for a withdraw, they square off their positions. If it's a short, they buy, which moves market up. By the way, hedge funds are committed to compound their assets, not interested in keeping the market upward. It's silly or biased to stand for hedge funds when asking our money back.
