I'm seriously thinking about quitting my high paying job to focus on health, family and pursuing my interests for a few months. Has anyone done this? Any suggestions?

Would you rather be given $1,000,000 or get $10 for every push up you do forever?

$NVDA reports earnings in 8 days. Stock is down ~20% in a month and now the CEO is affairing with an alleged Chinese spy. Do you buy before earnings or wait??

My buddy called me dumb for this... I’ve been throwing extra money at my mortgage every month at a 2.99% rate. Its not a lot, usually $500 a month. His argument: T-bills pay ~3.8%, the market does way more over time, why would you pay off the cheapest money you’ll ever have? My argument: paying off my mortgage early means I'll eliminate my largest recurring bill. Plus you can't put a price on peace of mind. Am I crazy?

Anyone else watching this Lakers - Trailblazers game? Luka Doncic is so good. Dame Lillard is still a beast. Good NBA basketball 🏀🏀

This week was horrible in the markets... last week wasn't much better either. Honestly the last couple months have been rough in general. My portfolio is deep in the red. On top of that I've been seriously thinking about leaving my job. The paycheck is great but I'm not sure it's worth it anymore. Nobody on their deathbed says "I wish I checked my portfolio more" or "I wish I spent more time at work" They wish they spent more time with the people they love. Took more walks. Said yes to more things. Life is short. Stop counting your $NBIS losses this week and go enjoy the weekend.

$IREN reports earnings today after market close. They have missed revenue estimates 4 quarters in a row. If this continues, does the sell-off get worse? Do $NBIS, $CIFR and $WULF tank too?

The highest-paid people I've worked with were also some of the most miserable. Not all of them. But enough that I stopped wanting their jobs.

Be honest. How many of y'all thought a 🔵 🌊 would crash the market? Democrats took the House AND the Senate. The Dow is up 1600 points. Are y’all panic selling or panic buying right now?

200+ of you answered. The people who had actually done it kept telling the same story: The first few months: amazing Then: boredom hits Then: the job search is brutal, especially in this economy What else I learned: 1) The most-liked reply wasn’t about money. It was “you’ll get bored.” 2) The second most-liked: “90% of the time it’s some other problem, not your job.” 3) The people who regretted it regretted the money and the job market, not the time off. 4) There are options before quitting: FMLA, a sabbatical, a 4-day week. 5) NOBODY argued health and family don’t matter. The fight was over whether you can afford them right now. So the question isn’t “should you quit?” It’s “what’s your plan for month 4?" If you’ve done it, what did your month 4 look like?
