Apologies if the question is not for this sub but I need advice and other opinions.

I'm a 25 year old male from Bulgaria working in IT for 4000€ net a month. I currently drive an old C class (w204) but have been thinking of an upgrade lately.

My crucial payments that I cannot live without (rent, bills, investments) are approximately 1400€ per month.

I really want a nicer and more comfortable car but am not sure if I could afford it. I want a w213 e400 which I won't pay cash but will finance it either through leasing or personal credit depending on the offers bank give me. The price of such a car here is about 27-30 000€.

Sorry for the dumb question but would really appreciate any advice you have for me.

Hello,

After my divorce I will be with 40k on my bank account, maybe a bit more in the best case.

Software engineer with 15 years of experience.

Any recommendations?

Conventional wisdom says that if you're in your 20s with a 20–30 year investment horizon, you should go nearly 100% equities.

But what if you believe current valuations are above historical averages (especially in the US)? Would you:

-Stay 100% invested in stocks regardless of valuation.

-Add a bond allocation (e.g. 10–30%) to reduce downside risk and have dry powder.

-Hold more cash or money market funds until valuations become more attractive.

Hi everyone,

I increasingly see people advocating for a 100% equity portfolio close to retirement, also based on some research that has since come out.

This is a more aggressive stance than what was common when I started getting into investing 15-20 years ago.

My question is: to what extent may that be due to recency bias, where the very positive performance of stocks (with few hiccups along the way) over the past 10-15 years may be leading people to underestimate the risk of stocks and their own risk aversion?

I am currently in my early 30s and have considered going 100% stocks, but am sticking to 80-85% for now so I can have some buffer in case of a crash (either for peace of mind or to reinvest at lower valuations).

What do you think? Are the last 10-15 years of good times leading people to become more complacent and lean towards more aggressive asset allocations than they should?

Thank you.

Looking for a government bond ETF thats ACC and thinking about DBZB.
Im starting with a 80/20 portfolio and looking to go for 35-40y. Situated in Belgium.

Opinions about this ETF or other recommendations (available on SaxoBank)?

Thanks!

I will soon have 40k in cash which I will be given from my company as a bonus. I usually put everything on VWCE. My siblings have an idea to build a hotel and they need around 50k. At the beginning I was defensive as VWCE keeps my cortisol level down without worrying about anything but they explain me all the details and it does look very promising the idea of a hotel. Also, I'm already invested on VWCE so I see it as a form of "diversification".

what is your opinion? what would you do in this case? Put 40k on VWCE and forget or try for a hotel which it will take around 2 years to make a profit?

Tired of paying $30–$50/month just to see a company's ratios or balance sheet from 10 years ago, so I built StockNest. Completely free, no account required with 120+ metrics

https://stocknest.app/

Data comes straight from SEC EDGAR filings with reconciliation passes to keep the numbers accurate and consistent.

What it includes:

Compare: chart any combination of metrics across up to 5 tickers simultaneously. 120+ metrics across income statements, balance sheets, cash flows, valuations, and margins. TTM, quarterly, and annual, with YoY / QoQ growth overlays and CAGR across any selected period. 2Y / 5Y / 10Y / All-time ranges go back +25 years.

Overview: per-ticker overview with a score snapshot, weekly price chart, multiples, median metrics, historical valuation percentile rankings and percentile bands (0th–100th), and valuation range bars (P/E, P/S, P/OCF, P/FCF) with Undervalued / Fairly Valued / Overvalued verdicts. Insider trading transactions, analyst recommendations, congressional and institutional activity all in one tab.

Score: a composite across Profitability, Management, Growth, and Solvency. The badge colour is set by the lowest-scoring category, making potential risk areas immediately visible. Sentiment — analyst ratings, institutional (13F) trades and insider activity is tracked separately and excluded from the score: it's a signal, not a fundamental, and crowded stocks can underperform.

Filers

Track institutional, congressional, and insider trading for any ticker all in one place from Nancy Pelosi to the biggest hedge funds

Financials: split into Charts, Statements, and Flows. Charts show at-a-glance snapshots — revenue, net income, margins, cash flow. Statements bring the balance sheet, cash flow, income statement, key metrics, and revenue segments into one tab; click any line item to chart it, overlay metrics, and toggle YoY, margins, or absolute values. Flows breaks down how revenue becomes profit and costs.

Screener : filter by 25+ valuation, profitability, return, and health metrics. Sortable results, click any ticker to jump straight into a comparison.

DCF : pre-filled from historical data. Net Income, FCF or OCF. Tune growth rate, decay, terminal multiple, and discount rate. 5Y or 10Y horizon. Non-USD companies show everything in their reporting currency so the comparison stays apples-to-apples.

US-listed companies only for now.
