26F - Starting my investment journey
Hello y’all, I’m just starting my investment journey and I’m going to post here at least once a month for accountability purposes. Here’s a bit about me:
- I make about 70k in a HCOL area.
- I live with my parents. They did not make me pay rent while I was in school, which I finished a little while ago. Moving forward I will pay them $700 a month.
- I have a work 401k with about $28k in it
- I have a HYSA with a decent amount of money in it, but I’d like to buy a house in the next few years so it’s staying out of the market. This was not gifted by my parents, but I acknowledge that them letting me live rent free is a privilege that allowed me to save this in the first place.
- I’m debt free; I went to school on a combination of scholarships, parents help, and my job. My car is also paid off.
- my goal is to invest at least $500 a month
Any tips are welcome, thank you :3
