Invest when you get the money Timing the market is really hard. It's probably impossible in the long term, but if you're like most stocks, you're going to have something to invest every month for the next 10, 20, 30 years. So when you get paid, invest. And what will happen over time with this periodic investing you're doing? A lot of people like to call it dollar cost averaging, but it's actually technically something else. But this periodic investing is that sometimes you're going to get a really good price on the investments you're buying. Sometimes you'll get an okay price and sometimes you'll pay a little too much. But on average you're going to end up getting a more favorable price. And the truth is that time in the market matters a lot more than timing the market. Having bought stocks at any point in 2004 is a better deal than timing it exactly in 2019. That time in the market matters gives your money much more time to compound.
