How much should I invest in stocks per month from age 20 to become millionaire at the age of 40? And which stocks should I invest now?

To figure out how much money you want to invest, you need to ask yourself how extreme you’re willing to go. An example would be making $800 every two weeks and putting $500-$600 into an investment portfolio.
By the age of 40, you will have an investment value of $679,579 (this is assuming that the rate of return is 7%). Now let us look at a more conservative point of view when it comes to investing just $600 a month.
When you reach the age of 40, your investment will be worth $312,960 at retirement. That is still not a bad number at all to have after 40 years of investing.
So to answer the question of what it’s going to take to become a millionaire, The most extreme you will need to go is investing around $2,000 a month. over a period of 20, according to Acorns Compound Interest Calculator, You will have a balance of $1,047,931.
If you want to speed up the possibility of becoming a millionaire faster investing your money then adding dividend stocks to the portfolio (and reinvesting that money into more stocks) will do the trick.
What I am doing right now is buying fractional shares of dividend stocks that pay monthly and then reinvest that money to grow my investment over time.
Which stocks should I invest now?
The stocks that you need to invest your money in is big company stocks, ETFs, REITs, and any other stock that pays out dividends. I suggest to really do your research to find out how you want to diversify your portfolio because that is a good way to avoid risk when it comes to investing.

I suggest buying fractional shares (if you can’t afford the whole share) of these stocks or all of them. Always make sure that all those dividend payments are being reinvested back into the stocks that you want to grow your holdings with.
