This is a silly question but it is always something we hear. If you are investing for the long-term, you should be investing every month as long as it doesn’t cause issues with your life. If you are frugal and saving where you should, you should have money available to invest. I am pretty sure that the $2000 for the Louis Vuitton purse will be worth more in 10 years. Don’t get us wrong, we like nice stuff but you should be saving FIRST. 10% of your income should be going to investments. 401k, IRA’s, stocks, funds or emergency fund should be a priority every month. Time in the market is more important than timing the market! This has been proven many times in the history of the market. The buy and hold strategies work better over the long-term. There is a great article on this at the FinanceBuzz. The bottom line, yes this is the time to buy and do it every month at the same time.
