I've been watching biz channels like Grahamstephan for years and just realized I don't really learn anything and haven't made any money. I'm just a dumb consumer consuming "cotnent".

Yeah most fitness, finance and learning content causes you to feel success by proxy without having to sacrifice anything yourself.

Best thing is to open an options a count and actually trade. You Will learn way more that way.

youre not going to get rich from investing unless you are already rich or you are employed to manage money. the idea that a retail investor with a normal job can get rich from markets is completely delusional.

Index funds are how you invest your money safely after having made money and that's all kind of coming to an end in the coming years once boomers start dying off.
You need to invest in high risk investments and learn how to play them. If it was easy everyone would do it but it's not. So you have several options my preference is crypto and stock options (weekly expiration is what I prefer for options, they are the riskiest). I wouldn't bet everything on these but divide your portfolio up across it from somewhat risk to really risky. You'll win and lose but you will make way more money in the scheme of things than going the dca index fund until your 50 strategy.

I would also let you know all it takes is one really risky investment to get ahead by years of regular saving/investing. There's a meme somewhere but every successful person that doesn't come from wealth already is constantly taking risks. If you aren't taking risks you will never become successful. Again there is no safe route.
Investing in index funds, high yield saving accounts, ira, and other YouTube finance faggots claim to do will not make you successful. You might have a couple mill by your 50 but that's jackshit in the scheme of things since you've wasted your youth wage slaving. The end goal is to become succcessful as early as possible

Would you care to share any books or youtube channels for this mindset. To really screw these kinds of points into my head. Maybe give examples/charts/stats.

This is interesting to read. Thanks.

People like Graham stephan make money from the content. They weren't rich before. If you're going to watch content like that, watch genuinely helpful stuff from humble yet successful people. Such people don't need to produce the content, but they do so, showing no signs of ego, just because they like the appreciation they get back.
Those are the only channels you should watch. Even people like PBD are blowhards and grifters.

instead of consuming content you could be creating it. Think of the endless possibilities you have for yourself if you set up some memecoin on satoshisync, create a twitter account and start uploading memes.
