I took mine at 62. We are not promised tmrw. I have a 401k and a brokerage account. Work offered me a part time gig to get rid of me so I took it. Work 2 days a week for maybe 14 hrs total. Feel so much better. No job stress at all. My break even age is 79. Don’t think I’ll make it that long...
Idk. I bought S&W right before election figuring Hillary was gonna win. Lost my ass. Wife said it was small price to pay for her losing. It’s very cheap now but I just don’t know. Right now I’m kicking myself for not buying Rivian a couple months ago. It’s up $16 a share. But they were having...

In September of 16 I bought Smith & Wesson stock expecting hillary to win and making me some money. Well Trump won and I lost big time. Stock tumbled from $26+ a share to like $6 a share. Now it back to $24+. My wife kept telling me it was a small price to pay for Hillary not being president. I...
My youngest boy who is studying finance at uga told me he opened some account with a app on his phone that allows him to buy and sell. He only put in a few hundred bucks but said he made $170 yesterday. I know not big money but Im quite proud of him. He is doing research on everything.
