Obviously, considering my purchase into funds and not individual stocks, I'm not a day trader. I'm 35 years old and just looking for more avenues to make my money work for me. So, am I crazy for investing a fairly large chunk of change into the stock market right now?
I assume, even if it does crash, I'll still be in the black in another 10, 20, 30 years. But wtf do I know. lol
Edit: I just want to let people know, when I said "a fair amount" I didn't mean "of my life savings". I just meant, it wasn't a small amount of money. Every 6 months or so, I sell off a chunk of company stocks that I get from ESPP/RSU. That money gets invested in something. This time, Vanguard funds got the money. They did, mind you, get ALL of the money I sold from company stocks. And it has been a fairly good year for us. But in another 6 moths, there will be another chunk of money to invest.
So yeah, in the long run, it wasn't everything all at once. But on the short term, it was everything. All at once. haha
