How I'm Investing During A Recession
Recessions can be the best time of your life to make money. Here's how I'm thinking about investing during the 2022 recession.
Welcome to Making a Millennial Millionaire, where I track my net worth and how I plan on becoming a millionaire through work, investing and patience. In this blog, I'll be breaking down finance into easy-to-understand articles, written for people that don't have a finance degree or a dad that went to Yale. You'll see highlights of the millionaire lifestyle, just to give all of us something to aim for. You'll also see me dive into different public companies, examining their business models and if you should put your hard earned money to work by investing in them, or staying the hell away. Let's go!
