I think they're meaning like a target date retirement fund. Basically vanguard or whomever you use will set up a fund that re balances itself based on when you pick a target date. The closer you are to retirement the less stocks it holds and starts switching to less risky investments automatically. You can just automatically contribute $x/week to max out your Ira and it does the rest. Typically like a .1% fee or something

Not sure how handy you are with a chainsaw or how you feel about heights. But there are lots of tree limbs/trees on people's properties and a lot of people are too old to take care of them themselves. Also gutter cleaning, roof shoveling, general lawn care (think aeration, over seeding, fertilizer etc) aeration can easily be $200+ for a few hours hard work. Some of these might be more difficult to get business for up north, but I'm sure a combination of things could start to build up a group of regular customers

I'm just gonna piggyback on here so OP sees it because my shit is very close to theirs.

1990sq ft colonial house 2 adults 1 toddler. 2 heat pumps electric wash/dryer 1 dehumidifier 1 small chest freezer. Only gas appliance is the oven. Electric bill is currently around $220-280/month. House was built in 2021 so modern insulation and windows will play a big factor

As they happen or before they happen? If I invest 1mil then tell everyone I did that because of insider info the price will spike and I can just exit my position with a win
