Investment year in review.
Couldn’t find the old stock market thread , so it was a vary good year, any outstanding moves or returns made this year ?

Ourselves ,funds returned pretty much the index, of the 16 individual stocks  I own a cumulative return of 28% with 13 winners and 3 losers , 2 of those I cut loose, kept T2 Biosystems as they have a promising sepsis treatment that I’m hoping gains traction . Biggest winner was also my largest holding, Booz Allen Hamilton with a TSR of 52% last year . 

About my best move involved the kids, like most just starting out in their careers, they only put enough in their 401’s to get the company match, so we gave each a check, with the stipulation that they increase their contribution by xxx per month, then dip into the “ check” if they end up short on living expenses in a given month . As I figured they never had to draw on the money, and they caught a nice almost 30% return over the year . May be why they gave us really nice presents last Christmas, we underwrote them.....

dominorobo - It was a great year for sure. Smart move on the 401K. I got 30-31% for the year in 401K. Besides that I did great with VOO, QQQ, and VYM ETF’s. I’m not allowed to individual stocks so I have to use ETF’s. It’s great when your money is making you money everyday.

pamsydyn - I saw this thread and also wanted to participate in the discussion. This year has been challenging in terms of investments. In December 2021, I thought that I'd earn only by trading. My journey began with creating a crypto wallet and trading in a mobile app. Then I realized I wanted to create a similar app, found a UX developer, and launched my app. Of course, we have a license. In June 2022, I realized I didn't know how to manage my finances. It was hard for me to distribute everything. So I'm glad I turned to financial advisors from http://www.mcgeewm.com. They helped me with financial planning, which saved me from crashing the app.
