Just put 100 on Tesla and see how it goes?

I haven't tried expensive stock.. I've had luck with Vaxart so far. I bought in at 4 and sold at 11 later when it was first popping off

Made 1,700 profit, so I'm sticking in 4.5 on it again hoping it goes from 8.11 to 12-13.. might be tomorrow or Fri though

From there I think I'll do Gap stock (like super long term though) and maybe something else.. not sure what yet.. Tesla could keep growing into the future

I wouldn't even know how or where to begin to look to start

I've thought of opening a Robinhood account and playing around with a thousand bucks here and there but idk I'm always afraid I'm gonna lose everything

If you just buy a total market ETF like VTI you won't lose everything like you might gambling on individual companies.

There's two ways essentially, a long-term investment and a short day to day investment where you pick something risky and volatile that's moving according to the news (everything moves according to the news btw) buy it for cheap and sell it the same day or the next.

You can net 200-600 doing short, day to day trades but you sort of have to put time and know how to read charts.. I got lucky, Vaxart is something I stumbled upon and got extremely lucky with

If there was any time to get into the stock market, it would probably be now tbh.. Practically everything is low and can go back up as the economy moves 2 years down the line so I'd pick a long term just for shits and giggles if you have money just sitting around.
