🎁Would you invest in stocks together with your family?

Fed’s data shows that 58% of households own stocks.

The wealthiest 10% of American households currently hold a record 93% of US stocks.

In the third quarter, the bottom 50% of income earners in the US held only 1% of all stocks and mutual fund shares.

Although remote work and government stimulus funds during the pandemic fueled the growth of retail trading, many retail traders had to cut losses and exit during the bear market in 2022, unable to withstand significant losses.

Researchers indicated in a 2020 study that

a majority of the wealthiest American households have their assets tied to stocks,
while assets for most middle-class families are linked to real estate.

Would you invest in stocks together with your family?

What is the proportion of stocks in your family's assets?

    No, investing in stocks is an individual decision and hard to agree on which stocks to hold and when to buy/ sell. Having interests tied to money can turn ugly quickly. Not worth!

    As my wife and sister do not read much about stock market, I share what I have learnt of the latest and greatest market news with them, analyses and researches that I have read or performed, but leave their investment decisions to themselves. I hold some US stocks for my wife that I bought on her behalf before she opened her personal trading account with Tiger Brokers.

    of course, I will invest in stocks with my families. however, not everyone is suitable for stocks. thus, for some people investing in other alternatives such as long term deposit which offers a much more stability is also an accepted decisions for some family members.
    as for me, stocks is the most shares in my private portofolio since it offers a greater return in a relatively longer time. however for securing my portofolio, some of my portofolio was saved in bonds and relatively safe obligations.
    so my portofolio is separated some portions. the largest share would be stocks, the next biggest would be bonds and obligations. and the rest which is relatively smaller compared to the previous two is shared to other alternatives available in the market.

    谢谢 @Tiger_comments 精彩分享👍🏻我会和家人一起投资, 嘻嘻🤭他们现在已经是$老虎证券(TIGR)$的一份子了😆, 我相信投资股票能赚到钱💰。
    房地产和股票我都有投资😃,买房地产房产绝对是最稳定的长期投资!缺点是资金一般要押在屋子至少5至10年,因而不太合适寻求短期回酬的投资者。我个人比较喜欢投资股票,投资股票比较灵活性, 随时可以卖出股票,缺点是股票市场般每日有波动,需要时刻盯着的无形资产。
    当然有有投资就会有风险,投资股票必须花时间做研究,你要在接近众多上市公司中,筛选合适的投资对象。如果总是靠消息入场,你的资金就有可能面临亏损,资金会被套牢。
    记得,每一种投资都会有风险。在股票方面,公司的股价能够在短期暴增或暴跌,需谨慎操作。
    我会继续留在老虎证券买入有价值的优质股票继续投资❤️。
    我会继续投资$特斯拉(TSLA)$$英伟达(NVDA)$$苹果(AAPL)$$微软(MSFT)$股票。
    美国的通货膨胀率比预期高、失业人数比预期少,浇熄了联邦储备局提早开始减息的希望,导致股市下跌。
    本周股票仍处下跌趋势,这对看好的投资者来说无疑是买入好股的好时机。
    希望股市能像2023年一样, 继续冲冲冲!愿大家天天开心,身体健康,股票大涨,早日实现财务自由❤️❤️❤️

    I wont invest in stocks together with my family as my interpretion of chart might be different from their point of view.


    I should take pride of my own gains or loss in stocks market. Basically you are your own boss of your portfolio or you are the parent of those babies ie counters.


    If i have a good profit then i will donate more to the charities end of the year. Not a good year, i will still donate as i need to bring down my income tax

    No. Each individual have different preference of investment instruments and risk tolerance. Still need DYOD. unless this is a family's mutual fund entrusted to me to invest... [Happy]

    🌟🌟🌟A family that invests together stays together.  It is so nice to have a supportive husband whom I bounce off ideas when it comes to investing.  My husband is a trader while I am more of a Buy and Hold type.  So together we have the best of both worlds.

    Even though our styles of investing are different, we share an ultimate goal and that is to create wealth through investing and reach our common goal of FIRE - Financial Independence Retire Early!

    Investing as a family is a personal choice. I am currently trading options for my wife, meanwile i do update her when there are good deals in the stock market. She decides whether to buy. Meanwhile, for my child, instead of buying endowment insurance, whole life insurance etc, i buy term insurance and critical illness cover for her. Using the difference in premiums saved, i buy dividend stocks in a seperate portfolio. I do not believe that insurers and banks can give a better rate of return than directly investing in the stock markets.


    As child is young, i will let the powers of dividend investing & compounding do their magic. This dividend account, if follow plan, the dividends should at minimum be able to pay for pocket money and allowance when child grows up. One of my biggest regret was not having any passive income when i was young. I intend to correct that for my child, avoiding being sandwich generation.

    My parents buy stocks but only SG ones. They are old school and buy thru brokers. I only use electronic platforms and trade all sorts. Different risk profile and style.

    I guess there's pros and cons. investing on your own will be less complicated as you make all decisions. whatever the outcome, you will be the only one answering to yourself as it's your [USD] [USD] [USD]

    on the other hand, if you are the reckless type, I guess it would be safer to have someone from your family who is much level-headed, have good risk management to step in. of course, not saying there will be no disagreement or argument but hey it's a partnership, so expect some kind of "I told you so", "why you this and that"...

    as for me, at this point better to do my own investing [smile] [smile] [smile]

    My whole family started together in buying shares of $Singtel(Z74.SI)$ during its IPO. Singtel shares is one of the stocks we talk about during dinners. We leave the details of stock investments to each individuals.

    No, I wouldn't invest in stock with my family, because of uncertainties surrounding what to invest in and when to buy and sell the stock
