[00:00:00]The stock market is not a gamble, and you can make a lot of money investing if you just understand this one simple strategy. And I know that it works because this is one of the strategies I used to make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year without working. And I once I show you how easy this is, you're going to be kicking yourself for not starting sooner. We're going to follow a consistent strategy that takes emotion out of the equation. Now, the price of stocks in the short term, they go up and down a lot. This is called volatility.

[00:00:23]This means sometimes you're going to buy when prices are higher and your money will buy less shares. But sometimes you're going to buy and prices are lower. That means your money will buy more. Each share you buy is another piece of ownership in a company. Now, this is called dollar cost averaging, and let me explain why this works.

[00:00:37]Because over time, the market as a whole has always gone up. Vanguard looked at market performance going back 100 years, okay, including the Great Depression, including recessions, including wars.

[00:00:46]And guess what? There has never been a 20-year period in the market, including all of those horrible things that happened, where the total stock market lost money. So, let me repeat that. If you invested consistently for 20 years, even if you did it right before a big crash, you would never end up with less.

[00:01:02]Now, there is one more piece to this strategy, okay? We can never time the market perfectly. No one has a crystal ball. But we do stay ready for opportunity. When the market drops, that means things are on sale. Your money can buy more. And if you invest during a bear market, where the markets are down by 20%, the average return in the 12 months following that is 38%. If you want to learn more about how to do this and how to spot opportunities and how to get started investing, I put together a free how to get rich in a recession masterclass. Link in bio.
