I'd like some advice.
This is my wife and I. We just had our first child, a baby girl.
I was born into the upper middle class, My father made a large amount f money investing in mutual funds (not insane, but average for someone in his class, 1.2m ish) at the end of his career.
I feel this is much harder to do for my generation, but I refuse to fall out of my socioeconomic class. My daughter and wife must have the same things I did. Trips to Disney, a nice, safe car, no money worries, etc.
Currently I drive CMV's (locally) and gross around 800-900 weekly during the winter months, and between 1050-1300 during the warm season(s).
I have enough to live off permanently, but I am a long term person. I experienced a setback as I was briefly incarcerated for 3 years, and am doing well for myself now for someone in my situation, but I'm hungry for success, which I feel is not as easy to come by for my generation.
My solution obviously is to follow the guidance of my father and invest in my portfolio, but I want to put more eggs in one or two baskets, as I see more potential in new things than he does. I specifically think Tesla is a good choice, and
I am on the brink of putting several thousand into bitcoin.
I do not understand the terminology involved, but I think I know what ideas have potential. I had previously used robinhood but I opened a TDameritrade for my portfolio here on out.

Any advice would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
I can bump with wg, and photos from work and shit. I don't have much to offer.
