Yeah, how's that thing go.... put 50 dollars in the bank every month when your 15,(or a mutual fund or something) and by the time your 60 you'll have a million dollars.

I feel for you... well kinda anyway.  I've put off buying games for months, not for investing but for making sure I have money saved up for the future... and am in my late 20's so I'm behind you a bit actually.


I can feel where your coming from for sure though.

Early 20's, for some reason you seem older.

The idea is that you get a bigger return when you buy stock and reinvest it into buying more stok tan you would if you just had a high-yield savings account. And the taxes on dividend income is lower, etc.

I seem older because.... eh I have no funny punchline.

To your second post:

My point was that I thought Slimebeast hated it when the state takes care of people.

Yeah, I just had a friend like that in highschool... he did something where somehow if he put so much in a month he would have so much money by a certain time.  I don't know exactly what the deal was.   There was something I learned that guranteed you to be "rich" at a decent age... it's not important.

 

As for the second part... You make a good point, but if you've got it anyway... you may as well do it.   I mean if you're against universal healthcare, and you have it... you may as well use it.  Why try and pay the doctor?  Your probably paying for some of this stuff anyway.
