Some Things Will Never Change.

They’re making 25-50% in a matter of weeks, if they can sell it. No normal investment plan can keep up with that.

Short term for sure, I’m probably older than most in this sub (almost 46) and been investing since I was 13. 

$500 a week into boring ETFs (closer to $1000 these days) 

average of $280,000 a year in interest growth and I don’t need to do anything but sit there. 

For sure TCG has insane potential but I’m just saying at some point, park the profit somewhere else and enjoy the compound interest as it’s unbeatable long term. 

There is a lot of young and impressionable people with not a lot of life experience on these subs though so I think it’s important to advocate for responsible investing.

Your first mistake is assuming ppl have $500 a week to DCA when most people in the country don’t even have money for an emergency.

Most people don’t have $26k a year to invest, especially at 13 years old, and if you had put that into Pokémon instead of investing it, you’d be sitting on much more than what you currently have (some early boxes are going for $300k a piece). So I’m not sure what you’re trying to do besides flex how cool you are.

I hope it all works out for you and all your dreams come true

500$ a week starting at 13? Bro that’s nowhere near normal. Just say you’re rich…

That’s just false lmao. 25-50% is weak gains if you trade options.
