Do you want to be my investment advisor? I had one at Schwab for a while, lost a lot of money.

I did very well for years, but you have to really keep up with things. Stocks are fun, but a lot of work and risk. When I saw the interest rate was lowered, I figured precious metals would go up. But just because the Fed controls the interest rates doesn’t mean the real market doesn’t price them. And FX trading, what fun!

Awhile after I had retired (early because of health) I mostly went to less riskier and less fun investing, did really well with REIT, made a bunch on 3D printing human organs, lost on energy.

Then had to live off of most of my retirement because I couldn’t work much but couldn’t get disability, because the judge told me an educated person such as me can do something. Have enough left for emergencies.

At least I get enough SS to live on because I paid so much in to it. If you are reading this Bernie, I know you’re disappointed.
