I'm ashamed that I really don't get the stock market, or an IRA, and other kinds of investments.
I do know I'd like to keep being able to afford health insurance and eventually to afford disability insurance as well.
I feel like other folks manage their money better in this regard, so that even if their income and spending are identical to mine, their net worth is more because their investments are yielding more over time.
I'm slowly educating myself, but hell, I don't need to make mistakes during my learning curve, especially as I am managing a huge student loan debt and have ongoing medical bills.
