Does the stock market affect your life personally?

[MikeTheBartender]

Yes

No

I'll explain in the comments

LOL no. Fuck the stock market. It's a casino for clowns. I don't invest more than 10-20$ ever and reinvestment only comes from a small part of any profit made. Smart move too, as if not for that precaution, would have lost plenty. I mainly do it for a tiny profit here and there since the whole thing is a joke, so it's not hard to see AMC going up once in a while despite it being a dying business just from levels of hype. I also follow Inverse Cramer. He's completely right that Jim Cramer is often wrong and a big fucking idiot who should have been fired long ago. Anyone who takes the stock market that seriously at this point is a dumbfuck who probably also thinks Apple and Tesla are the current height of innovation.

Not directly, though I do occasionally look at the stock market because I have investments in it.

Yes. My husband is heavily invested and trades weekly so the ups and downs are a fairly significant part of our life. But once a person is an experienced and knowledgeable trader, it's not just about the up's anymore; you make money on the down's too. If you play your cards right, can anticipate.

I ignore that money though. I live as if what we have in the local bank account is all we have. The other money will dictate what our retirement will look and feel like.

I'm an entertainer, not an investor. The stock market has no bearing on my personal life.

I mean... not now. I'm 28 with no plans to retire anytime soon. But if I were...68... I'd be concerned about retiring right now.

I own a couple of stocks and also have a retirement account that is in large and small cap stocks. I have seen the best returns over the last 5 years.

[DaveToo]

Only in that I have an annuity that is tied to the market.

[bamesjond0069]

Yes because i make money monthly off stocks. Its not my main income but it is significant.

[joeldalton]

My retirement savings are in the stock market, so yes.
