How do you guys have the confidence that you’ll make it? I’m too afraid to invest, I’ve never invested in anything in my life. I’m a 25 year old virgin, too scared to do anything, I’ve never had sex, I’ve never invested in a single coin or stock or anything ever. My money just sits in my bank account. I’m so afraid of everything I know I’ll never make it, I’m afraid to go into grocery stores, I’m afraid to send emails, I’m afraid to even get a haircut so I cut it myself.

How do you guys have self esteem? I even lift weights 5 days a week and I still feel like a loser. There’s just so many things to learn and understand and I’m too stupid to understand any of them, I’m running out of time. I wish I could be a /biz/chad like you guys, I’m a fucking pussy loser.

From there you send it to your cash withdraw account connected to binance coinbase ect. Now there is no possible way to track the coins back to you, the trail goes cold at the 3rd party exchange.

if you want to stop being afraid the best method is exposure therapy (ie doing what you're afraid of)... in order to do that you gotta start very small, like bare minimum, and work your way up. let's say you want to get into trading. Put some of your money into something (relatively) safe like SPY or QQQ and then sell it after a few days when it's green (if it's not green just wait it will be green eventually). There you go, then you go the next level, trading large marketcap involatile ETFs (IZRL for example - with jews, you win!), and you can keep working your way up... that's one method to stop being of afraid of things: start small and work your way up slowly

Stock market can only go in one direction, up. If it ever went down its literally the end of the world and even a hord of non-perishable food and ammo will be useless in that situation. Fiat only goes in one direction, down. If it doesn't then we have deflation which is always bad, next step is end of the world. This is always true no exceptions. Buy s&p500 and hold for any 90 year period in the past, it's always higher than it was before.
Sign up for Betterment or some other robo advisor company because it's all the same. Put X% of income in whatever feels right, I suggest what they suggest split 90%stocks 10% bonds. Vanguard is cheaper but I don't know if they have the automatic deposits or robo. With this you at least match stock market returns, or come close. If 10%/yr is too boring head to coinbase and buy eth/link/btc. Avoid the poojeet and rebbit scams shilled here. They type very obviously like they are not from here, and the biggest giveaway is that they suggest buying anything other than btc, eth, or link.

https://www.amazon.com/Value-Averaging-Strategy-Investment-Returns/dp/0470049774

Jesus is King OP. Never forget that.
Also, get a Robinhood account and buy:
>BL
>FSLY
>AMD
>YEXT
>Datadog
>Nvidia
>Mircosoft (blue chip stock, nice and safe)
And buy Air BnB and hold. There will likely be a dip soon, but don't worry. If you bought it tomorrow and just held you will make money for sure in 1.5-2 years anyways.
Keep in mind Covid lock downs are ending in liberal cities across the country now that Biden is president (lol) so Air BnB will likely get better earning reports in the next two quarters, which will make them jump.

Poshmark is another one I'm looking very closely at, it just went public last week. It's business is for women to sell their clothes online and they have a lot of social media/influencers on their website to sell their fashion, so their earning should be good since their customer base is loyal to their cults that sell items there.
Maybe don't buy it yet, because it might be a bumpy ride for the next few months, but just keep your eye on it and check back every few months and before earnings. It might crab up and down for the next year tho like Stitch Fix did, but eventually I think it will work out well.

Anything you get OP, just let it sit there for a year or two. Don't touch it. And don't try to wing trade it/time the market. If you do want to do some swing trading (I've done this a lot), only do it on companies that recently went below the average trend line for no apparent reason and make sure it's a company you really like/have good reasoning for why they'll go up.
A majority of your portfolio should be companies that you want to hold long term.

Dear Anon and everyone else reading this, remember this for your whole life.

Fortune fawors the bold.

You can either go and get what you want, or sit and be happy with whatever scraps you can get on your table.

It's hard to just pick up your balls and actually do something, but thats all there is to it.

Opportunities are EVERYWHERE, you just need to take them.

Look at what the poor wagies are telling you about the investments - oh, it's a risk, who knows what can happen, it can crash and etc.

What do the rich say? Invest, invest and INVEST, take risks, you may miss, you may hit, but all you need to do is take action.

If you want to get what you've never had before, you need to do something you'vs never done before.

Anon, just DO IT. Research. Create a plan, adjust, adapt.

And just do it.

Me at 25 and me at 26 were like 2 completely different people.

Something will snap inside you and you will just have enough of your current situation.

You will then spend your year at 26 trying to make it and then go all in at 27 or join the 27 club.

Do boxing. When you have the balls to enter a ring, even to do sparring, everything else is pretty trivial.
