One of my kids reached out to me the other day and asked if I could help her move some money from her checking account into something that would 'make her rich'. I said she might be getting ahead of herself if she thought there was a 'make me rich' place to put her money, but can you blame her when all she hears about on social media is Roaring Kitty of GameStop fame, or all the Bitcoin millionaire success stories? I explained how her best bet was to start with the basics and make sure she had all the important things (i.e. tried and true) set up before thinking about looking at high reward, yet high risk options for putting her money. Here we talk briefly about those tried and true options.
