## Caption

The stock market can be rising while your own finances still feel squeezed. It measures expectations for public companies — not your rent, grocery bill or job security.

Keep investing for long-term goals. But don’t chase a rally or use an index as your personal benchmark. Start with your cash buffer, high-interest debt, and consistent retirement contributions.
