I'm a teacher who recently hit his emergency savings goal of $10,000. I am able to pack away $600 a month, what are some safe, long-term options I should look into?

Buying an ETF like VOO is exactly like what you just described. The expense ratio is like 0.1%.

>> No.54200390

>>54200322
They’ll most likely charge you 3% of your savings every year. You can pretty much be invested in an ETF and it’s pretty much the same thing without the fee. But an advisor will work with market conditions and rebalance your portfolio accordingly and will help you with your risk appetite. I don’t think they are worth it, but idk up to you

Is an ETF something I can just continuously invest in? How I'm picturing it is I would just hack off a piece of my paycheck twice a month and send it to this place.
How much money could I expect to make in a year, assuming I invest $7200 a year?

No. They will do you a disservice. They don't care about your money and they're all dumb anyways. 80% of them have never been through a crash.

Trust me dude. But physical silver from bullion or monument metals. Get the cheapest price per ounce you can. It will be worth worth 10x what you paid for it in five years. Look up the pawnstars episode where the guys sells all the silver he bought for 30k and gets 300k for it on the episode. It's on YouTube. This will happen again and be even bigger.


Anyone else in the thread giving other advice doesn't care about you, they aren't smart enough to manage money, and they are retarded. People like you who only have a couple hundred to set aside every month that buy physical silver will make life changing returns. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity and we're just entering the first inning.

Yes you can continuously invest in ETFs. Your returns will vary obviously but you can look at the historical returns and dividends.

>> No.54201697

no such thing as safe these days, the government has forced everyone to be a speculator, and most will lose
put it into a bank? lose to inflation, and it's looking like all banks are probably insolvent
put it into crypto? can always drop 80% or more and there's no asset/use case to backstop it
put it into stocks? can easily drop 50%, although more defensive dividend stocks (utilities, healthcare, etc.) may only have 25% downside
put it into gold? probably safest, but it's not an investment, since it doesn't generate any returns
