My experience based on a few market cycles and a lot of work put into this and it is a bit contrary: do speculate in the stock market (I am trading using robots) those are the best times to make money going up, near the top, going down, etc... for me the hardest (losing years) is when the market is trying to get off the bottom... SO I can't wait for the recession, because it is a great opportunity for me personally... Besides that, having paid house and FU money is great...
