I don’t talk about my finances with anyone because I really hate bragging but I was able to put 10k into my savings over the last 12 months and I’m really proud of myself for that. I come from a food stamps household so I never imagined saving so much

lol I said something almost exactly like this a few weeks ago and somebody quoted me like "why do people act like it's a shame to come from a well off family?" and I was just soooo lost bc I literally just said my net worth is X at Y years old and started off on food stamps and section 8

I mean it’s both tbh, I am very privileged to not have to pay for college, not having medical expenses, and being able to save a majority of my paycheck

Why are we hating when they obv are proud of their accomplishments. Let’s stop putting people down, if this was you you’d want people to support you.

That’s the plan, I’ve got about 7k invested rn with the plan to add 30% of my remaining earnings for the summer, any specific strategies you’d recommend? I’ve pretty much got everything in index funds atm

Index funds and ETFs are the way to go until you have about 30-50k in an account. Instant diversification. Then you can start buying up individual stocks. Tbh it all depends on how aggressive you want to be. SPY is pretty good but a lot of it is ai stocks so it depends on how bullish you are in that.

Like I’m not even trying to hate, but if you’re saying, you can’t tell anyone and then post about it. It’s just a little bit funny. Is this person a hard worker 100% but like come on now I just thought that part was like??

You get it tho so don’t worry. It’s the people who brag and then have no awareness of how their situation differs from others. Be proud of yourself.
