I've been watching Ramit for only 2 years now. I have saved a 6-month emergency fund and lost my job last month. This has saved me and ensures I don't make decisions out of fear. It has given me the space to plan my next steps with intention, and I don't have to take a lower-paying job in desperation. Thanks, Ramit!
Uuuaaauuuu congratulations on being smart with your money decisions 👏 👌. Sorry you lost your job but, glad you have the safety net to choose another job wisely 😊.
That is great👍
I'm 32 and still have a maximum emergency fund of 2k. I would never keep 15-20k as a fund unless I've got a big house, family, car etc.. What a waste of an investment opportunity 🥵
@@syforce9297 Totally get that. I am a 45yo single parent and have a mortgage. I also live in an area in Australia where rental vacancies are under 1% and the rents are about the same as a mortgage payment (homelessness is a risk for fully employed people on a decent wage). I also have the savings account as a redraw facility on my mortgage to reduce the interest on the principle.
@@syforce9297 what happens if god forbid you have an injury and have no choice but to take time to heal. That 6 month emergency fund can be the difference between security and an unfortunate blunder. Prepare for the worse but live for the future.
*I'm 50 years old and living in Germany Berlin🇩🇪 I'm willing to retire at 55 if things keep going the way I planned bought my first house last week I'm glad I made a productive decision that has changed my life forever can't be more proud that I'm right now*
Congratulations you are really doing well at your age im 45 and my finance are in rally in mess right now and great tip will really go along way in shaping my life im open for idea
Sorry for late response I was able to do this because I understand four pricinciples of financial planning success think long term with goals and investing, spend less than you earn maintain liquidity (an emergency savings) minimize the use of debt and with the help of financial advisor Ava Brenda Harry I made over $120k in crypto
Money invested is far better than money saved, when you invest it gives you an opportunity to increase your financial worth
I know this lady just mentioned here . She's really good with and on her job. She's helped a couple of families and individuals' finances
YES!!! That's exactly her name( Ava Brenda Harry) so many people have recommended highly about her I'm huge beneficiary of her platform from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
Glad you said it can take a year or 2 to fully fund the EF. Timelines are important. I was thinking it takes a few months
Yep, takes the pressure off having a realistic system
It will take me a few years to build mine… I continue to invest heavily.
I thought the same! So Ramit thank you for mentioning this! It is way more encouraging and motivating if someone like you gives you a realistic timeline.
took me 2 months
Fastest is better, because it gives you a safety net early - but doing it in a few years is better than not!
You’re so brilliant! And I so enjoy your sense of humor. I’ve implemented some of your techniques and it’s reduced SO much stress. I went from “I can’t see ever retiring” to “I have a workable plan and can see retiring at 67”. Thank you and keep up this great work - you’re likely adding years to people’s lives 🙏🏽
I went today and put $1k (emergency fund) into high yield savings account paying 4.25%. I’m gonna self fund it by transferring money into it to build up my 3 to 6 months of expenses! Thank you Ramit!
use raisin , you get 5%+
Can I do that as non-citizen of US? I live in EU
The most down to earth realistic advice out there! Awesome stuff as always.
Bought AMS120X at 1$, I will keep it until 2025 when it reach 250$
AMAZON says this is a SCAM
Ramit! Hands down the best finance advice clip ever...I wish I'd seen this 20yrs ago though (I'm 47 now)...but thankfully have an emergency fund secured and are automating my monthly investments since this pandemic. Thank you for sharing your wisdom...
Starting this now as 22yo RN! Goal is to stay at home until I finish my automated student loan overpayments, lots of thanks to no rent, if I stay consistent with this autopay idea… I should be loan free and have $10k in a HYSA before I turn 25 🙏🏾
The first $100K of saving/investing is pure self-discipline. Fight off all the temptations of the WANTs & learn to live with the NEEDs, and also learn to thrive in it.
After $100K is invested wisely, it'll balloon. The next $100K comes quicker, and before you know it you're at $500K (assuming consistent investment habits, simple/frugal but a happy lifestyle, and harnessing the power of Compound Interest).
-----
I'm in this bucket currently - flirting with $500K net worth but a shade short currently. I can't wait to be a millionaire before I grow too old & can't use most of it!
Be careful of any taxes or fees you have to pay. Otherwise best of luck reaching a mill!!!
The emotional effect of having an emergency fund is invaluable.
Great stuff, never stop doing this !
I joined Ramitme. Ended up automating everything and living a more purposeful life.
I started in Feb. it’s lovely
What do you think sets AMS120X apart from other projects? It seems to be dominating discussions lately
i think the discussion is dominated by bots
I've been obsessively watching financial videos every single day for the last month and this is one of the best I've seen so far. Thank you for this.
Setting up sub savings accounts and automating deposits to those accounts eliminated so much stress around money! I did this many years ago, and I’ll admit, the first year was tough. I was still having to pay all the bills, but also deposit the amount needed monthly into the savings account. But the next year, when I had everything fully funded, was so beautiful. I do this for things like my HOA (billed annually), car insurance, gift fund, emergency fund, household repair fund, vacation fund, etc. Because it is automated, and because a set amount is set aside monthly, we no longer have to think about these things as they come up. I adjust the amounts set aside as I see the need, but the adjustments are usually small and manageable. The best part is that having a substantial emergency fund eliminates living paycheck to paycheck. There is real peace in knowing you have enough set aside to weather 6 months (or more) of no income. It may take a while to get there, but it is so worth it.
That 1st year has me shook lol
@@nicholebryant7359 I think you could take a slower approach than I did. You could start with just a few accounts and gradually build up. It would take longer but it wouldn’t be quite as painful. I was just impatient 😁
Great video. Thank you
I love your content!!!!!!!!!!
Love this! 🎉
these example numbers are so real for me!
Thank you very informative
Good video ❤
Thanks
This is truly the way to create financial stability and wealth. I can’t stress enough the importance of an emergency fund. Thanks for sharing this important info, Ramit!
My men, the only video before I watched, like, share this channel. I love you, Ramit
Great advice!
What about those older late to the game. Can things change at all ???
Doreen age 67.
This is such a great video so mich info thank you
Thanks Ramit. I will never forget your chicken wing lesson😆 your content is amazing
Thank you Ramiro! What are your thoughts on the economy currently. There’s a lot of doom and gloom being predicted. Would love to hear your take on this! ❤
This has been very very insightful
I followed the link and signed up to get the conscious spending plan. I got a welcome email to IWT and a Rich Life mini course email - but I can’t find the spending plan anywhere in either of them. Does anyone know how I access the CSP, or did something just go wrong?
Excelente video Ramit!❤
Thank you Lord Jesus for the gift of life and blessings to me and my family $14,120.47 weekly profit Our lord Jesus have lifted up my Life!!!🙏❤️❤️
I'm 37 and have been looking for ways to be successful, please how??
Sure, the investment-advisor that guides me is..
Mrs Lee Wallace Stacey
😱Sounds familiar, I have heard her name on several occasions.. and both her success stories in the wall Street journal!
Her services is the best, I got a brand new Lambo last week and paid off my mortgage loan thanks to her wonderful services!
Excellent video
I find it funny how everyone is stressed about inflation, the only ones that are not stress about inflation are the ones who have planned and are good with their money. The ones who who think before swiping the card, the ones who are able to say no. I’ve been on this journey for almost 10 years, and I have not felt inflation at all.
I 100% agree and I preach this exactly to a T and all my friends disagree with my but I will die on the hill it all comes to budgeting
Inflation still exists. And it doesn't mean one can outrun it
My rent in the beginning of 2020 was $1850, now it’s $3120. Doesn’t matter how good of a money manager I am, that’s a big hit, and we feel it.
@@isoseismic maybe you can’t afford to live in your area and need to move.
@@hmmm2564 The ones who worry about inflation are the ones living pay check to pay check without a plan. Those who have saved up and plan their wealth don't even bat an eye if gas goes up 1 dollar more.
Ideal approach as said here, 6 month emergency fund in case of job loss or unexpected costs. Then invest as much as you can in a pension fund (if you have one as part of your job all the better), invest as much you can. There is an awful lot of bad advice on UA-cam but this is perfect advice here. I am working in financial services and this is advice we give to clients
Thank you for taking the time to create such great content.
Hey Ramit. I know about you with your Netflix serie and I really enjoyed and learned a lot. I’m from Venezuela and we do not have automatic system, any suggestion? Thank you for all the info you always share!
Thank you
👍 good stuff 👏
Might be a given but maybe add to that the emergency fund at a different bank should be a HYSA. I mean it doesn't have to be, but its better.
Excellent video, automation is a great tool to take emotion out of financial decisions
Absolutely! Building a strong financial foundation with an emergency fund is crucial for long-term financial security. Implementing automatic savings and a conscious spending plan can help achieve financial goals and lead to a more fulfilling life. 💰📈
Thank you for the video, I have a question about the percentages. Are the percentage categories for the entire paycheck or the remaining balance from what's left over from the previous category? Example: paycheck $1000 - 50% for fixed costs = $500 left. Would I invest 10% of the $500 and keep going through the categories like this or invest 10% from the original $1000 paycheck?
Hi Ramit, thank you so much for teaching us these necessary life lessons 😊. I have a question though if u could help me. As a Muslim I can't use normal or high interest savings accounts. An Islam savings account could be possible where the bank uses the money to invest and as the profit is not a fixed amount or percentage it is permissible. What should I do if I can't get access to an Islamic savings account so that inflation does not depreciate the money?
Can you do a video on credit cards? Good ones, bad ones, and how best to use them.
Thanks brother for great information. I wish people are responsible for their finances more. This would have benefited as a whole, but I fear others delinquencies bring down the good guys 2008 financial crises was a good example. Many good people lost their jobs and their investments due to the irresponsible financial decisions of others.
What if our retirement savings is taken out pre-tax by our employer? should we still invest 10%+ on top of that from our net pay? thanks
My company's payroll site allows for up to 10 different banks accounts for direct deposit. I don't even have to worry about setting up transfers. The money I want to save goes straight to the designated savings/brokerage accounts without ever hitting my operating account(s).
Are subscriptions like Netflix considered a fixed cost since it’s every month or guilt free spending since you can cancel whenever? I am always confused on where subscriptions go. Thank!!
Thank you for this video, it has opened my eyes to start having an emergency fund 😊
Great breakdown. My situation is that I am debt free and a saving 60% and still always feel broke. If I save less I feel i won’t have enough when I retire.
I feel the same way! Not sure how to live life now that I am debt free other than my mortgage.
I was in the same boat but its all perspective. If you have $1mil by retirement (easily achieved if you invest heavily and early) you'd be able to live off the growth to the tune of $80,000 a year, it would of course go less far due to inflation but still. You can crunch some numbers in Excel or any of the hundreds of online calculators to see what your retirement goal should look like then adjust your savings accordingly. If you're only focused on the end you'll forget to live and enjoy the now.
Move to a cheaper area
@@shrpbluntobject withdrawing 8% is terrible advice, are you Dave Ramsey? You should look up sequence of returns risks.
@@weswest8666 ,
"Moving to a cheaper area" is plain BS__only works in your favor if you already have enough savings/investments under your belt.
Why? Because 'all things are relative'! Meaning, a lower cost of living area also means lower income availability, as well as 'other' things that tend to 'balance out' the differences.
👍🏿I automate everything b/c my life is busy
I don't know why people hate on Ramit so much, but eat the shit Ramsey says right up, he's pretty simple in his advice that most noobs to budgeting could follow.
They're basically saying the same thing - spend less than you make, build emergency fund, pay off debt, invest - in that order. They just disagree on unimportant minutia like specific percentages. It doesn't matter. Just spend less than you earn.
I really truly like this guy. I believe he has true passion for helping others. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS ALWAYS❤
I subscribed to your newsletter to receive the template and I haven't received anything yet.
I have 10k saved liquid. I feel like I'm hitting a mental block on growing that, what advice do you have? I'm a very "money is a tool" kind of guy and would rather use it to make more money. I'm interested in very little in the material world, other than a future I can enjoy while young as time is a very irreplaceable thing. I value my time, don't think working a 9 to 5 is a logical long term choice. Sorry that was a bit long 😅
Thank you Ramit 🙏🏻 you have changed my life by giving confidence back to me that I can do this. May you be prosperous and healthy in life 🙏🏻
Conscious spending plans are great, really, but they only work if you discipline yourself. I'm not sitting on this guy's ideas, just pointing out that it's 20% planning and 80% discipline--especially if you are an impulse spender, like he mentioned at the start of the video. Those are tough habits to break, speaking from personal experience.
been searching Ramit's posts, can you tell me if there is one on how to converting away from paying my adviser? Saw the Netflix show and you say stop paying an adviser. Sounds like you may be suggesting doing it on my own? I am with an adviser who then invest through Schwab. 1% to my firm, 1% to Schwab. I would like to end this.
Hey Remit I would love to talk to you about money I really like your podcasts too
I wish you would bring in age more often. These spending categories and percents just don’t work for older individuals who are behind/just starting to save for retirement
Thank you for your videos! I've been part loaning a horse because i cant afford to buy one just yet, but have been feeling guilty about the money. Now that I've run the numbers I've realised the cost is just a portion of what i can allocate to fun money after paying out all my fixed costs and investments, so i can enjoy my hobby without the guilt
Baller! '06 Honda Accord 😊
I’m getting onboard with this system!
I’ve been on since Feb. life has changed lol
@@lowlowseesee I love how simple it is… Invest, Increase Your Income, Have Emergency Savings, Reduce your Cost of Living & most importantly ENJOY YOUR LIFE! break free of your limiting beliefs about money & prioritize!
One of the most realistic Finance UA-camr out there!
Do you recommend investing all your money in to the S&P?
I think u said 10% bonds??
He usually recommends choosing a low cost target-date fund. For example, if you use Vanguard and want to retire in 2035, you can take their 2035 fund that rebalances automatically the closer you are to retirement.

Fixed costs = les coûts que l'on doit payer tous les mois: coûts d'habitation, de manger etc.
Investissement = l'argent que l'on investe en des ETF ou des fonds d'indice.
Savings = l'argent que l'on mettra en un compte d'épargne pour plus tard acheter des tickets pour des vacances etc.
Guilt-free spending= l'argent que l'on peut utiliser comme on veut.

I just increased my 403b contributions to max (17% per paycheck and I now focus on our student loans while saving for a house down payment.
I still want to invest more after that into Roths and TBAs but these loans gotta go
We get a lot of overtime. How do we factor that into our CSP?
It's step #2 in the video 3:11
Look at your money in percentages. No matter how much money you make, it's the same percentages.
what is a good rule of thumb when figuring out percentages?
6:08 The graph is right there.
Unless you're asking how to break it down even more?
Usually people recommend 30% on rent/mortgage, 8% on your car.
For me:
65% all living expenses
15% to retirement
10% to savings
5% to treat yourself monthly
5% giving/charity
@@lilifey729 thx!
@@maxinoume thx!
Is it better to start doing emergency savings first or pay off credit card debt first? I have about 3k in credit card debt
Pay off your debt first. That way you are already paying yourself that 20-28% you must be paying right now on the ridiculous CC Interest!
Credit cards. The interest rates are too high.
@@KA-NVthank you that’s exactly what I was thinking but I wanted another opinion on it. Attacking that credit card debt hard!
You can't do both? You need that emergency fund ASAP to be able to handle an emergency. Without it, you'll probably just end up using more credit.
It's my belief that the tech industry generally (not just NVIDIA) will do well in 2024. I've seen the indications. To this end, I'm considering investing around $500k (over time) in AI stocks. This to me, will help secure my retirement and build wealth for my children. I'll appreciate advice and important tips to note.
What if i don’t have the same amount going into my paycheck each month? How do I automate? That’s difficult if my working hours are not consistent Please advise?
Get the average. Build up a couple of months' cushion. Then do your automation %s that you’ve decided, using your cushion whenever you have a low month to make up the difference. Note that the cushion is separate from the emergency fund.
How to plan savings and investments for 2 students?
My brother and I living in high rented area because of the university. Every month we earn 3,000€ and our apartment takes 2000€ with out utilities. Our groceries and etc. takes 500€-600€ and last 400€-500€ split so I only have 200€-250€ for me.
We do not save, but I really want to.
What can we do?
Can you earn a little more or spend a little less? And that little bit you have left over you put into a savings account. That's step one. You've got it!
Car repairs and co pays always eat away at my emergency fund… every month
Good👍
i am tired of the rest of the world. I need to go in the right direction. put 40k in ira, I paid off my home, paid off all credit. I started an online reselling business. Paid off my car and put 30k in the bank. with my oh crap saving off 2k. just made my first 500 online. what am I missing. I took a small camping vacation in March.. Am a home painter by trade, My fixer upper is fixed. I am having a hard time concentrating on my new online business, it's not that easy to restart after 10 years. things have changed.
I get this and I wish there was a guide for people like me. Someone who lives super economically and doesn't waste money on merely anything, never eats out or buys crap. Just realistic tips for people who have a very modest income and are able to save (putting away the money on a saving's account regularly) and need a way to save this money from dying. I know absolutely nothing about investing and the subject sounds Chenese to me. Totally unattainably ambiguous and confusing. Elementary and concrete tips or instructions on where to invest our 10-20k, would be very appreciated.
This is all in my book, I Will Teach You To Be Rich. Check it out from any book store or library
Great advice but... but.... where I live it's sooooo freaking expensive, my fixed costs would be an insane amount of savings... yes, i so want to move somewhere where fixed costs would be much lower
Good luck with that. 😢
That only works if you already have savings/investments and work at a job that's not hourly__otherwise, income will be lower in an area where the cost of living is lower. 💩
❤ please a video on how to deal with the guilt free spending money. Im bad at this. Do you keep it cash, crédit card , separate cheking account for this ???

Saved 10k last year and flipped into six figures withing a few months and still going. I’ve always been an advocate of investing in the stock market because it has been rather rewarding.
You can’t overlook the fact that it’s paramount not to get greedy but to remain invested through careful study, if not you can lose it all.
I have some money saved from day job. I have no idea where or how to invest. How are you doing it, Pam?
It’s not rocket science. As I said previously, I save up and got into stocks myself but wasn't profitable the first couple of months. Got tired of losing and decided to seek mentorship from Jonas Herman, a certified fiduciary who helps oversee my investments.
@@LogosandLogic
While it may sound enticing, it is important to understand that stocks, like a fine wine or a Monet, has no standardized value. You look all good on the outside, while you wait till almost death to enjoy your wealth which presents an enormous economic(uncertainty) risk.
Over the years, I've been part of numerous investment programs, sifting through a barrage of information. Yet, none comes close to the sheer clarity, depth, and precision of Herman’s instructions and insights. It's akin to finding a diamond in the dirt.
Ramit, you talk about how expensive your clothes are like your $9,200 bomber. What happens if you spill coffee on it or something? Do you have insurance on your clothes?
Fine I will buy more Weekly Options :) Just kidding. Great Advice will follow it.
😆😆 its funny when you get angry at people not making plans
If we have debt. What we do firts? Emergency fund or pay monthly debt?
Always pay down debt. Especially if it's c.c. debt at 20% or anything like that
I feel called out lol
So what you think everyone is trying to do. Better you start off by showing how to make more money than you need to do that first?

I must be doing great even though i grew up poor with alcoholic parents. I haven't worked in 4years I'm 32 bought a investment property outright, bought the misses a car & have no debts while i get to go on holidays every 3months I'm content. While most people are working till they are dead with a lot of debts they are continuously chasing money & are not happy.. Its a mental game as well as being educated around money.
You cracked the code! You should be so proud of yourself. It takes a lot of mental fortitude to escape a dysfunctional situation & create a nice life for yourself. Bless up!
Lock your doors people!
This is good advice for those who need a bit more discipline when it comes to saving. I appreciate it being out here, I just acknowledge it's not for me. I have too much discipline when it comes to saving and have become a bit of a miser! ha ha! :D On the plus side, I'll thank myself when I 'm 60. Edit: This channel needs to be renamed 'I'll Teach You Not To Be Broke', as it's a bit misleading. No one can teach everyone how to be rich, it's just not possible everyone'll make it. Besides, Paul McKenna wrote the book "I Can Make You Rich" and, big shock, it was a con.
