It feels as though islam is almost blocking me from entering

Good day everyone! I just wanted to bring up some things that I have personally felt from my own experiences that whenever I attempt to discuss Islam, genuinely research it, it always get pushed back. I don’t mean to sound rude or insensitive, I just thought I would share my experience.

Whether it was attending a mosque (which I had a meeting set up with an imam) or asking questions here, Reddit, genuine revert websites. It always seems that one of three things occur.

  1. I get ignored, totally understandable

  2. The conversation is quick and leads to me being ignored

  3. People try to somehow debate me out of it

Im not sure if I’ve ever truly felt connected when I have asked someone about Islam, or cared for? I suppose? Like they value my questions. And most of the time it hurts because my intentions are genuine and my heart is open, however it seems that I am constantly shut down. Would anyone be willing to talk to me about this? About how I feel about my journey, willing to debate maybe? I just want someone to value what I’m saying because I know I sure value it. Please let me know as if people continue to shut me out, maybe it’s a sign that Islam is not for me.

I’m not sure if this is the place to put this, but does anyone have any advice for saving money while in college? :)

Hello everyone! I just wanted to ask a question here for those who may share my experience in a way. I’d like to know how to save money while still being in college? For reference, I had about 100$ saved as my first investment (I’m 20, I may be behind the curb but I’d rather start when I can). And I had to take it out to pay for college and to feel financially safe. I would love to be able to save but it just feels like an impossibility due to needing money for college.

I have many lofty goals that I hope to achieve, such as travel, and financial security. And I’d like to start early, whether that be the kakeibo method, investing into VT or VOO. I just want to know how to get over that initial hump. Does anyone have any advice or recommendations?

Obviously I’d like to be debt free by the time I leave college (I have two years down without loans). While also accounting for things like meals, groceries, every day essentials. Does that still leave room for saving? Like I said, I have goals, and while honestly a lot of it can be attributed to jealousy of what others have, it just feels like an impossibility. But I know anything is possible!

The Journey Begins…

19(M) I am officially starting investing.. I have gotten some good information and it seems that putting as much as I can into VT is an idea that can get me at least started. So far I put 20$ into VT and 5.98$ (a free stock from depositing into Robinhood for the first time) into Microsoft. I hope to learn more and use this sub as a resource! If any of you want to provide som advice in the comments that would be swell! But if not, I also wish anyone that is just starting out good luck in their endeavors!

Difference between VTI, VT, and VOO?

Good day! I am 19 and have no money in the stock market (mostly because I haven’t had the opportunity to save extra for it). As someone who has been reading a lot of this sub, I have seen these three investments, and was wondering if anyone could explain the difference?

I’ve considered buying the 3 in 33% intervals, but I was wondering if any (more experienced folks) could give me some advice! Thank you all.
