Yeah, you have to watch out for the scammers. Unfortunately even though I’m comparing my investment returns to my side hustle, investing is really a long-term game for me and so I really don’t have much experience with investment as a side hustle. I can say that my long term strategy is to buy and hold low cost (i.e. low expense ratio with no miscellaneous fees) total stock market index funds and to not panic and sell if the market takes a dip. Eventually I will develop a stock/bond asset allocation to protect myself from sequence of returns risk
