Ever tried to catch a falling knife? Yeah, it sounds risky, right? That’s how we kick off our chat today, diving into the classic Wall Street proverb about market timing. Spoiler alert: it’s super tricky! We got a listener question that really hit home: this person feels like they’re just never gonna nail that perfect moment to invest. Newsflash, folks! I think many of us live in this fantasy land where we think we can predict the market like some crystal ball-wielding wizard. But guess what? Markets are like roller coasters—up, down, all around! Instead of waiting for that dreamy moment, let’s talk about a much easier strategy: dollar cost averaging.

It’s like ordering your favorite pizza every Friday—sometimes you get more slices, sometimes fewer, but you’re still enjoying that pizza, right?
