Investing is so much easier when you aren’t worried about losing money you may need. Once you get ahead by a decent margin it gives you more freedom.
I bet it is. I deposit some in my account every paycheck and do everything I can to not pull any out. So while I don't really live paycheck to paycheck, I make myself feel like it.
I simply can't afford to drop $1000 into a stock because AT says it'll be a good one. I can drop $50 though, and add $50 increments to it or the next one he brings to our attention. (It's usually more that $50, but I'm not trying to get into a money bragging contest. I'd surely lose.)
It's better than nothing and it's the best I can do to prep for the future. I have to admit, I myself am surprised with how quickly it's added up and grown. I know these aren't normal times and I remind myself daily that 'a rising tide lifts all boats' and that I'm not a super investor and these good times definitely will end. Hopefully I've got a decent amount of money stowed away at that time.

Thank you, sir. Please keep them coming, gents.
I totally understand if you aren’t willing to divulge your “secret sauce,” but I and others would be grateful for anything that you’d be comfortable sharing so we can begin to develop our own.

How many of these people really exist? Peter Lynch and AT?
Seriously, people who do this for a living are typically woefully average at it over long periods of time. My advice if you go it alone for DD and individual stocks is to set a realistic expectation - if you can match the benchmark and enjoy your time doing it, I’d call it a win.

First place I look is the Cash Flow statement. Does the business kick a lot of cash? What does their free cash flow look like? Does cash from ops more than cover their capex? If not, are they taking on debt or are they issuing shares to fund operations?
If a business is young they may have to issue shares or take on debt, but if that’s the case, I want to see significant revenue growth year-over-year. I also want to see that they’re keeping it to manageable levels.
Lastly, I need to feel comfortable about the business’s prospects to hold for at least three to five years.

Done.
I see where they also offer a trade machine, do you have experience with that and if so, would you recommend it?

THats the million $ question. For every penny stock that goes to the moon? There's 1000 of them that go belly up. To find the diamond in the rough I wish I knew?
IPO listed stocks? Fairly easy to hit the winners.

if you have a FIRM grasp of fundamentals and technical analysis the trade machine is a cheat code. note that it is for options and swing trades

How much do you think you have to have invested for it to be worth it?
I’ve always thought about it but never thought I had enough skin in the game to justify $47 a month ($500ish a year).
Now I’m starting to have enough income to throw more in the market
I guess what I’d be looking at is returns with this versus returns without this. Kinda hard to estimate the % return increase with it though.
I guess I can just try it out for a few months and see what kind of value I think it has.

my rough estimate on the returns i've gotten compared to the subscription fees is about 800:1

I'm always using tech analysis on my tradingview account and have been profitably swing trading options lately.
Sounds like you recommend it and that I should get it.
