Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Have you tried not?
Oh sure, I'll just wave my magic wand and make it so that after I pay all my bills I have thousands of dollars left over to invest!
We all have bills, though. How much do you spend on fast food or other luxuries? What is your monthly income and how much are the hard bills (like utilities)? If you don't mind sharing since we're all anonymous on here anyway, maybe we can figure this out.
Oh my god.
I've considered all of these things. I know my finances better than you do. I live with family and don't even have to pay rent and I still don't make enough to invest in your magic money market. I don't need help from stockbros. You're doing the financial equivalent of "you're disabled? have you tried exercising and smiling more?" Maybe consider that you don't know everything.
I never said that I know everything and wasn't even thinking about the market at all; I was just concerned about a paycheck-to-paycheck life, especially if you happened to be living alone, but never mind.
