I've talked to hundreds of beginner investors. Almost all of them make the same 3 mistakes early on:

1. Chasing hype stocks

If you heard about it on TikTok, you're probably late. By the time retail investors pile in, the smart money has already moved. Instead: focus on companies with strong fundamentals and long track records.

2. Trying to time the market

"I'll wait for the dip" is how most people miss the entire rally. Time IN the market beats timing the market — every single time. Dollar-cost averaging into quality ETFs will outperform 90% of active traders.

3. No system, just vibes

Investing isn't gambling. You need a framework: what to buy, when to add, when to trim. Even a simple one beats winging it.

I started Profit Playbook to help beginners skip these mistakes entirely. Every week I share clear, actionable breakdowns on what's happening in the markets and how to position yourself.
