Pay off debt. It's good debt on my house and adjacent land... But i still want to get rid of it.
Investment wise i put a couple hundred a month in a vanguard account to mess around with. My plans for that are to acquire dividend producing stocks.
Paying off that mortgage is a SWEET, SWEET day!! Loves me some divy stocks! They have gained in popularity so getting them at the right price is key. O and ORI have been past winners for me but are too expensive right now. NYCB and VZ are close to 52 week lows. Happy New Year!!

My birthday isn't for four more months. That's the day each year I look at my portfolio.

Never a bad idea to invest in your future ability to keep earning money if need be, and your capacity to enjoy it when the time comes.

401k is back to where it was around March '21. I was feeling pretty good then, so I should be feeling pretty good now. Just have to ignore what it got up to in the mean time...
Keeping the same mix as before- mostly sp500 index and growth funds, with some value funds. Way too heavy on stocks according to the rules but still ahead of where a conservative portfolio would have been.

I've not sold anything, so I've not lost anything - and since I'm still buying stuff, I'd like the market to be down right up to the moment I want to sell stuff
About the only thing that strikes me as a good casino bet right now would be to short Tesla - they have serious issues on a number of fronts and Ol' Elon has definitely taken his eye off the ball there. Right now there doesn't seem to be a good reason that they should be any more valuable than GM, VW or Ford.....

I'm far from expert, but I read a story on EVs recently that suggested that in twenty years, and maybe much sooner, the main producers would be GM, Ford, and the Japanese and South Korean manufacturers. That might give me some pause if I were the kind of person who would invest in individual stocks.

2022 was a right crappy year for investments for me. Hoping 2023 will bring more Bull and less Bear. Recently bought a little LUV and LOVE. Bought a few CDs for the first time in 25+ years. C and maybe F at the right price? Trying to be very patient and buy in stages. This past year I learned that if I waited to establish a position SLOWLY I would have done better. I think market could go lower cause of recession so no need to rush buys. Meta and TSLA were my biggest losers.

I can list stocks that I buy in this thread, then you'll know to stay away from them.

Is LUV Southwest Airlines? If so you should be in index funds IMO.
Being that it's already bounced off it's 5yr low, it actually is a good buy. People have short term memories.

The board should buy 1 stock every two weeks (since that's standard pay day schedule), then at the end of the year, see how much the stocks gained/lost.
