Ok, so everyone said buy some stock and then forget about it. Time in the market is better than timing the market. Well, I need my money now. The cost of EVERYTHING has nearly doubled for us. From property taxes to utilities to groceries. And, our wages are NOT increasing.
Anyhow, I got the Robinhood app and did what you guys said. I bought HOOD. I put in $7000, and was hoping that would offset inflation. I looked because I need the money now. I was hoping it would be like $8000 or even double that given that our dollars are about worth half what they were a few years ago. And all I see is about $1100. Where the fuck is my money? Should I call Robinhood? Do they have my money? Did they charge fees? Did they take some taxes or something? What is going on? Where are those gains you guys were talking about?
