Any general pointers? I made a few bucks at the same time everyone else was making money but now I'm at a loss in both senses of the word. And unclear, what does being a minimalist have to do with investing? Do you mean that your income requirements are low compared to others?
Right now energy is hot. I won't give any specific tips, that is what investing is about - you do the picking and choosing and you spend your own money, it is your responsibility. You should look into commodities though. If you feel lost I can recommend TFM's Market Minute on SubscribeStar. For $5 a month you get a daily newsletter. I don't follow it but many people who are not well versed in investing really like it.
