    I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially In 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $350k of my savings in stocks against next year. Hope to make millions in 2024

      Since risk is at an all-time high right now, perhaps you should be a little more patient and return when it has decreased. Alternatively, you can consult a trained financial expert for strategy.

      Yes true, I have been in touch with a brokerage Advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.

      It's common knowledge that IB jobs are very long hours + stress.
      These jobs are good if you are a money/status whore and enjoy that sort of work.... else it looks like some serious torture....not to mention health issues...if you don't take care of your health regularly.
