Stocks & Crypto

[farmguy]

I am not someone that follows the stock market of invests. I don't have any crypto either. I am considering both seeing as inflation keeps going up and up. I am curious to see if anyone here invests and if they have any useful videos or sites I can learn from. I am not asking for "legal advice" I don't want to get people in trouble. Just asking for knowledge and tips to better understand investing in both.

I follow crypto and have baby investments. Nothing major. I am up about 50% from where it was in 2022 so I am happy about that but again, it isn't a whole lot. I just invested for fun. I really don't know how to track stuff or read the market around it. I will say though that if you are going to invest, only invest in the big 3 to be safe - Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Tether.

Stocks are mostly rigged. You can still earn if you know what you are doing but it is worth understanding that the people at the top use it as a means to get richer and they know how to manipulate the market to favor them. If you are going to do stocks, find someone successful at it and hope someone else made a tracker for their trades (they are all public) and just follow them.

I have some investments in crypto. I don't really know much about it. Just like inapickle29 my investments have gone up recently, likely down to Bitcoin going up. I really can't give any advise or know of any place to learn or understand it better. I know nothing about stocks either.

There are some channels on YouTube but it is hard to find one that just isn't pushing their own narrative to drive up their own investments or channels that are just running pump and dump schemes. Like right now I see tons of these rug-pulls happening with crypto all over social media.

I just wish I would have invested when a friend told me to back in 2017. He was telling me to just buy one Bitcoin but 3 grand was just too much to risk losing at the time. Shame as I would have had 73,000 USD right now.

I noticed that this is MOST of them. Like so many YouTube channels will give you some advise but it is mostly BS to help their own investments and sadly it works.
