The Market Hustle - Finance & Investing

Every year there is a new reason that keeps people on the sidelines. That thinking is costing many... Zoom out and play the long game instead. Scared money doesn't grow

The real winners in the stock market are the long term players. They just aren't as noisy as the short term players

Most parents want to set their kids up for success… but not enough take advantage of the tools available to make it happen. One of the best ways to build generational wealth? A 529 Plan. Here’s why I personally like them even more now: ✅ Covers education expenses (K-12, trade schools, college, continuing education) ✅ Can be started before your kid is even born (just name yourself as the beneficiary and change it later) ✅ You can pick a plan from ANY state (but check if your state offers a tax deduction) 529 Plans allow you to invest for your child’s education with 100% tax-free growth, which is already a big win. But thanks to a rule change in 2024, up to $35K in leftover 529 money can now be rolled over into your child’s Roth IRA. That means even if your kid doesn’t use all the money for school, they still get a head start on retirement investing. The biggest downside? 529 plans have strict spending rules, so they’re not as flexible as other accounts. But now that they can roll into a Roth IRA, they’re way more appealing. This is how you set your kid up for generational success. DM me "KID" to learn how to get started. #InvestingForKids #GenerationalWealth #529Plan #StockMarketBasics

Making money, managing money, and growing money are 3 different skills. The harsh truth is you wont reach financial freedom until you master all 3.

Savers get punished. Asset owners get rewarded. Inflation silently eats away at cash, but ownership builds wealth. If you want to get ahead, you have to start stacking assets. DM me "OWNERSHIP" and I’ll show you how to start.

The sooner you get started taking investing seriously, the faster you'll be able to get the compound effect working in your favor

The hardest part about financial growth is unwiring the money beliefs you subconsciously took on when you were younger. You can’t break free from money problems while still believing money is bad. You'll self-sabotage yourself every time you get some money stacked up. Money is just a tool at the end of the day. If you have negative emotions about it, it will run away from you.

Financial discipline today leads to more options tomorrow

A common mistake people make is thinking they’re invested in a Roth IRA when their money’s just sitting in cash, collecting dust in their retirement account. A Roth IRA is just the account type. It’s not the actual investment itself. The next step after adding money into your Roth IRA is investing it in a stock or fund (that holds a basket of stocks). Quick breakdown for the new investors: 1. Pick where to open your account 2. Choose the account type (tax rules) 3. THEN actually buy your investments The amount of people missing step 3 is too many. Make sure it's not you. - Josh

Don't underestimate small consistent habits. They're exactly what build the big long term results
