Let me correct you all before you even start—if you're considering crypto as your big investment idea in 2024, you're already behind the curve, lol. Yes, I admit, I got burned by Bitcoin back in the day (ffs, who didn't?), but I've learned my lesson the hard way. Real talk, folks—defensive stocks in healthcare, tech infrastructure, and even renewable energy are way more reliable. Lately I've been eyeing ETFs like XLK, because let's face it, tech giants aren't going anywhere. Also, my older brother swears by investing in REITs, and annoyingly, he's actually making decent cash from them.
Bottom line, before you drop your savings into whatever trendy investment subreddit is hyping this month, do your research, stop chasing quick wins, and diversify—unless you want to end up broke and salty like half my coworkers.
