Too embarassed to tell anyone I know IRL, but am excited for my new future. Been throwing alot of money with small things. PC, alcohol, movies (and im ashamed to say, funko pops). Recently i took the plunge and cut out alcohol in an attempt to get my life together, and i feel like i have a whole new start.

Yeah I tried one of those a while back and was pretty dissatisfied with it. All it did was lose money each month due to "fees". Felt like a scam. So I pulled the money out and put it in a high yield savings account instead. I've seen a ton of growth with that. Being a moneybro investor absolutely was not for me.
