But here’s the thing – I’m stressing out about my money. I know the choices I make now will impact my future big time. I’m clueless about investing and all that. So, any tips or resources you can suggest would be awesome! I wanna learn more and grow my cash stash!

Hello There,
Hi there! It’s great to hear that you’re in a strong financial position and are proactive about managing your money. First of all, kudos to you for being debt-free, contributing to your retirement accounts, and investing in a high-yield savings account. You are definitely ahead of the curve for someone in their mid-20s.
It’s completely normal to feel overwhelmed when it comes to taking the next steps in growing your finances. A practical approach would be to start by educating yourself on the basics of investing. There are many resources available such as books, YouTube channels, and podcasts that can guide you through the world of investing. Consider checking out “The Intelligent Investor” by Benjamin Graham or “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki for foundational knowledge.
Since you are already contributing to a 401k and Roth IRA, you might want to review your investment allocations to ensure they align with your long-term financial goals. Additionally, consider seeking advice from a financial advisor who can provide personalized guidance based on your specific circumstances.
Remember, building wealth is a journey, and it’s about making informed decisions that will benefit you in the long run. Take the time to explore different investment options, understand your risk tolerance, and continue to prioritize saving for the future. With your dedication to financial stability, I have no doubt you will continue to make smart choices and grow your wealth. All the best from THE MONEY MINDER.
