Imma bout throw out some numbers on stock and why everyone should treat them like banks.
Robinhood low 2years ago was 10$ now is 140.
Nvda 120- now it's 180
AutoZone 1500 3 years ago, now it's 4k
Apple was 160, now it's 260
Intel last year was 21-25 now it's 39
Caterpillar was around 200ish now it's 530
Dicks sporting goods was 130ish, now it's 230
Dell was 50 nows it's 150
GM low was 25, 2 years ago, now it's 67
Google, Chipotle, Amazon, IBM,
JPM, O'Reilly, Sony, Spotify and many more have doubled tripled or bare minimum went up 50%.
I know math isn't everybody's strong suit. But 1000 dollars in any of these would beat any banks APRs that you would receive, without even adding in dividends.
Inflation is the bank crippler and the dollar isn't worth more than a stock.
Think about it.
10 dollars a month in Spotify stocks would pay for your subscription in the first year. Smh.
People call stocks gambling, but what is the dollar, when the 1 dollar isn't worth anything and the fed can print money whenever they feel like it.
Your dollar could be worth 50cents next year while mine would be worth 2 dollars.
You don't have to do stocks with me, but you definitely need to treat stocks with the same status that you give celebrities and idols.
When I started I told everyone to buy Robinhood stocks, buy Hood... And now.... I'm glad I did, even at it's highest 2-3years ago you would still triple returns.
For anybody thinking about the next generation, start with investing in yourself and your beliefs.
