"Pay Yourself First" Was My Foundation for Wealth Building

Often people save only if there is money left over after expenses and discretionary spending.  This is how I started when I started working....

Feels Like It's 1999

I remember the dot.com bubble.   Stocks would go up 50-100% in a day sometimes.  This went on for months.  Relatives, colleagues and friends would tell me how rich they were getting everyday.   I stayed out of it.   It seemed too good to be true.  Eventually, it was too good to be true when the crash of 2000-2002 happened.

At this point, I'm hodling for now.   I admit, I did buy 2 shares of memory stocks in today's premarket, 1 of MU @ $790.79 and 1 of STX @ 787.87, to ride the rise or decline.  Other than that, I'm avoiding making buys in this market, except of tax loss harvesting.

I was out this morning at the open, when both MU and STX dipped below my purchase prices.  As of 1:20PM, MU was over $800 and STX was $836.  I am hoping both will go over $1000 this week.
 
We'll see how this goes.
