I am officially over picking stocks
I’m tired of it. I’m tired of doing research and looking at the market every day multiple times a day. I’ve done pretty well with my choices over the years but I’m in my mid 30s have about 230k invested (not including retirement) and I’m ready to disconnect. I’m going all in on SCHG (I know that’s a little riskier but I’m not concerned).
It’s weird, this year I hit a point where I just want comfort and less complexity in my life. I have a good marriage and a toddler and that’s where I want my focus to be. With excess income I’ll pay the remainder of my student loans, then work on paying off my house quicker, then pile remaining money into the market. Let’s keep it simple!

Uber to acquire ezCater for $2.3 billion dollars
Uber Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: UBER) and ezCater, Inc. today announced that they have entered into an agreement for Uber to acquire ezCater, a leading U.S. platform for catering and workplace meals, in an all-cash transaction valued at $2.3 billion.
ezCater makes it easy for any business to manage its food needs and order from over 140,000 restaurants nationwide. Its platform supports everything from meetings, events, and recurring enterprise catering needs, with tools to manage ordering and food spend and 24/7 customer support.
The acquisition will bring together ezCater’s proven catering and B2B expertise, Uber Eats’ global reach among consumers and restaurants, and Uber for Business’s deep relationships with organizations of all sizes. Restaurants will be able to grow through larger orders and new diners. Customers will be able to find and order food for a group more simply and reliably, from workplace meals, to events, and social gatherings. And couriers on Uber Eats will have attractive new opportunities to earn.
ezCater generated over $2.5 billion in Gross Bookings over the trailing twelve months, growing high teens year-over-year. The business is profitable on a Non-GAAP Operating Income basis, and is expected to be margin accretive. ezCater’s average order values are over $400.

What would you do with £5k and a month?
If you had a small lump of money (for example up to £8k), and a month before the money will be used elsewhere, what would you invest this in to bump it up a bit?
This is just a theoretical scenario, I’m just intrigued to hear what people would do with it! Not an actual situation I’m in (I wish lol)
