    I started my financial success after pirating instead of paying subscriptions. Took that extra money and bought some random stocks.

      Lord yeah. The money saved by not paying for all those streaming services might actually be able to buy a yacht, fuck the coffee

        I had like 4 streaming services. My total savings like close to 80 bucks. Started with doing meme stocks and made a few bucks. Then moved to more stable investments. My ETFs and stocks are giving me 22% returns since I started.

        I’m also still buying stocks every month. Mostly ETFs. JPEQ is my favorite.

        While I don’t have yacht money, I now have boat money. I still pirate tho.
