Not having enough money to invest.. Whether you
Post# of 1584
Whether youre young or old, many of us simply are not millionaires. We want to be.. but are not.
In fact, only .03% of Americans can say they are millionaires. Here is one fact i have learned over the years which may help you:
Millionaires live like they are poor. Poor people live like they are rich.
Warren Buffett is a billionaire and still lives in his house he bought for $31,500 in 1958. You think thats just because hes cheap or that he made his billions by chance?
Now dont get me wrong, many rich people live rich lives; cars, houses, boats, toys, etc. But, its not surprising that many of us may live next door to very wealthy people yet we'll never know it simply because these people know how to live within their means and dont flaunt their money.
If you earn after tax $30,000 a year, yet you have a brand new car, the best sneakers, eat only organic foods, have 4 pets, have a $100 a month gym membership.. yet you cant seem to make $1 profit investing.. you need to get your priorities straight.
if youre happy with your lifestyle, then dont change a thing. But again, if you live like youre rich, yet youre really not wealthy.. why are you doing it in the first place? Most people do this in order to keep up an appearance. But the fact is, appearing wealthy when we are not only adds to our debt problems.
Did you know 73% of Americans will DIE with debt? 1 in 3 cant support their lifestyle, yet continue to live fancy lives. there is a high probability your neighbor to your left or right, who always has a new lawnmower and the best cars.. cant afford it.
Start living within your means. Ive been investing for years, have done pretty well, and buy my jeans at the Salvation Army.. no joke. I actually do this. Kohls sells men's brand name Levi jeans for $98. 98 DOLLARS!
My salvation army jeans cost $3, are already broken in, wont fade or shrink because they already did that years ago. They have no stains, no holes, and look like theyre about 2 years old. I saved $95.98 on a pair of jeans. All i do is put them in a garbage bag, bring them home, run them in the dryer for 25 minutes to kill any possible bugs running around in them, wash them, and Pow! New jeans.
I can now invest that money in a stock @ .01. Thats 9,598 shares. Ill sell those shares @ .05 = $479 minus $119 in tax = $350 pure profit.
Would you rather have $98 jeans or $350 in the pocket of your $3 jeans? You decide.
You dont have to spend $10,000 on investing equipment like this to make money:
Go to BestBuy or whereever you shop, and buy a laptop for $150 - $200. If youre reading this, you already have a laptop so dont need one. If you cant afford a laptop, do your DD and investing at the public library. FREE!
Simply put, if youre the average hardworking woman or man trying to make ends meet, and you want to learn to invest.. FIRST learn

..and THEN invest small.
Learn what it feels like to invest $10, and then sell for capital gains and have $20 profit. From there, learn to make $40, then $400, then $4000, then $400,000.
It IS possible to make money investing. Ignore the noise. First learn, then invest. Dont invest more than you can afford to lose.
The best investment right now in my opinion for those starting out with limited funds in XRPUSD (ripple). Its not a stock, but has a better chance (my opnion) of earning capital gains then buying into a random pennystock and hoping for the best.
