My father who is a 40 year financial advisor told me to put 50k into first republic bank rather than crypto where I wanted on March 1st since he said it is safer and regulated. My buy in was $120. Go check the share price now. This was two years of saving half my income.

When people say “invest in safe traditional stocks” they mean index funds and hedges and shit.
Dumping your money into some single hand-picked stock is never safe.

Yeah until you aren’t. It’s hard enough to predict the market, predicting a single stock without what amounts to insider information is inherently risky. Even with super safe giants that actually play dividends you have lopsided risks due to comparatively low growth potential.

You put too much at stake, and for what? Read books.
