39 years old….turning 40 this year. Starting investing about 4 years ago (self taught). Made many mistakes but overall return is net positive year over year. Growing up coming from a low income family where my parents highest education is high school and always taught to “save money” but never to invest. I felt like I have missed out a good chunk of my life. But the saying “better late than never” has never been so true in this case. Currently in my brokerage account hit back half a million with 24K passive income annually. Can’t help but felt a small win of achievement. For those out there with similar story. Don’t give up and continue to push onward. Pass down the most valuable wealth to your generation which is knowledge. I have a 10 years old daughter and already starts her investment portfolio with a balance of 80K. Half into long term ETFs. Other half swing trading for her. Hoping as she getting older passing down the knowledge (along with mistakes I’ve learned) to equip her for a brighter future. Cheers 🍻
