      Mindset is important, but a dose of reality is also maybe equally important. Like when my brother was ending college, he had a goal of reaching x amount (a very lofty goal, like your subject on this video) of NW by age 30. With a rising stock market and discovering alternative ways of accelerating his market gains. Things were looking really positive. Things really took off when he got a high paying job right out of college. Then the Dot Com crash hit, and let's just say he got derailed, like the train overturning type.

    Being able to invest $6000 per month is a very aggressive goal, not just for a 23-year-old, but also for an adult who makes good money in the US. In order to save $6000 per month, it would require a salary of over 100K a year! But then you need to account for the essential expenses like rent or mortgage, groceries, car payments etc so you will probably be left with about half of that or $3000. This doesn't mean that this goals is impossible, it just means it will take 20+ years to get there.

      For the majority of people $6,000 is just unrealistic. I don't even make $6,000 a month. I am looking for a second remote job where I can just invest the entire monthly salary. That's probably the only way I'll be able to retire in general. Not even early. Everything costs so much it's just so hard.

    I’m 22, started investing at the start of 2021. With all the turbulence in the stock market I ended making a lot of mistakes but I’m glad that I’m learning from those early on while I’m still young. Because of my age I’m willing to take a lot more risk. Now I’m shifting my strategy to investing more into ETF’s, high yield dividend Aristocrats and kings, as well as trustworthy growth stocks such as Apple. I do t have a FIRE number because I plan on having a business empire but I do want to be a millionaire by 30 yro.

    I purchased one of your packages at the beginning of this year (I believe it was a brand new one that built on itself each month for the course of 12 months). I started it but didn’t fully use it as I was focusing on paying off my credit card debt that was at $18,000 in January and is now at $1,900. When I started paying it off it was at $37,000 so at the end of this year I will be completely paid off! It took me three years and downsizing my rental expenses to having a roommate. It was so hard to think about investing with that monkey on my back. I’m excited to use it now. Even tho I won’t get the full benefits of what I purchased just having the guided template is helpful!

    I would love to be financially independent, but to be retired early is another story. I need to interact with people going through similar challenges as I am. I need to work, even if part-time. The best thing about the FIRE movement is that it views retirement as an option, not necessarily the end goal. Perhaps we should just call it the financial independence movement.

    Question for anyone that can help -
    My spouse had mid 250k in 401k last year down to about 220k now. This entire year she maxed 401k all in S&P 500. She will be ending her employment to be a stay at home mother starting the beginning of next year. The plan is to roll everything into an IRA and continue with S&P 500. Is it reasonable to think that in 17 years with average returns of 9-10 percent this amount could grow to one million? Contributions will stop so dependent on reinvested dividends and market growth. Financial advisor told me this was unrealistic, but I’m thinking that this is what the S&P averages over time.

    • @pqtaxmom
      @pqtaxmom Рік тому +3

      There is a huge difference between average rate of return and actual rate of return. Don’t get me wrong. You can make a lot of money in stock market. But once you throw in a negative yearly return, it messes up the maths results that you calculated using all positive rate of returns, and once again, there’s a huge difference.

    Hi guys, this is a great great episode! I have a follow up question: how would the numbers be different if the timeline was a bit shorter or a bit longer? Given the magic of compound interest, my guesstimate is that even a couple of years would shave off the monthly number exponentially. So in a sense, sometimes I think getting there a bit more slowly can pay off.

    @Christina @Amon - In the video, you mentioned the estimate of $6,200 to reach $1M FIRE in 10 years considering total stock market index fund (VTSAX?). Does this estimate consider the reinvestment of Quarterly dividends? Maximizing tax advantaged accounts first? I'm developing my own FI/RE calculation and wondering what inputs you used for this estimate.
    I've been following y'all for 4 years when I was starting my own personal finance journey, which I've learned/unlearned a lot more through your channel compared to "common knowledge" taught elsewhere.

There are lots of different types but definitely something to look into if uk based

    I am sorry but I have to remain skeptical after watching this video. The 23 year old caller said she wants to have 1 million pounds after 10 years. It means that in a period of 120 months, she has to save over 8300 pounds each month. I just assume she just graduated from college, what type of jobs she can do to save that huge amount every month?. I am not sure she can even make that amount every month. She really needs to be realistic and evaluates her FiRE number again.
