  • @cooleobrad
    @cooleobrad 3 дні тому +79

    I think this video is a bit overly pedantic. None of the UA-camrs you shared are claiming the market will go up 10%/yr, every year. It is clear, especially in context of their other videos, that they are referring to the historical average. Someone with $100k invested is obviously going to grow in bigger increments than someone with $1k or $10k. Of all the financial advice to criticize on the internet, this was not a strong pick. Meanwhile you've got Dave Ramsey giving actually dangerous advice like saying that retirees can pull out 8-12%/yr from their investments and never run out of money.

    • @GOffUnit
      @GOffUnit 3 дні тому +1

      No, but his point was that the historical average is not a guaranteed return. Someone could conceivably invest consistently for 30-40 years and see their portfolio mostly rise in value over all that time, but then a couple years before they retire something catastrophic happens, the stock market crashes, and their investments shrink in two years to the point that all their investments now only provided an average 5% return over their lifetime. Now what? Do they wait to retire, hoping things course correct sooner rather than later? But what if they don't correct soon? What if it takes another 10 years to get back to their highest high? Surely, given enough time, their portfolio will rise again, reaching the 7-10% average return, but how long will that take?
      This is why I'm planning two separate retirement accounts. One safe, low-return portfolio to immediately live off of when I retire, and another to continue to grow if the market is struggling when I retire. For a time, I'll be able to withdraw from my safe account, waiting for the right opportunity to shift my riskier account to safer investments to live off of later if need be.

    • @PaulGoins
      @PaulGoins 2 дні тому +1

      I tend to agree. There's good info in here - and it is *absolutely* important to make it clear to people that investing isn't just a higher percentage savings account. I've never thought that myself, but I guess some people could. Yes, things go up and down: I started investing seriously in May 2017 and I see lots of jaggedness and volatility, and my returns did go negative (barely) around December 2018 and March 2020, and 2022 went down overall. But overall, I'm made out pretty well in the past 7 years, basically just doing SP500 and total stock market index funds, continuing to buy regularly, and basically only selling because I needed cash out for a couple of larger purchases. ...Granted, people's strategies are different, asset allocation is important (and I'm admittedly stock heavy), not financial advice, etc., etc.
      Fair point that people shouldn't be overly positive about investments to the point of being misleading; totally fair! And people should be careful about investing and not just follow everything influencers say; also totally fair! But I think this comes across as a little too negative; even shows which may underplay the impact of volatility may have a lot of good advice because they are trying to encourage people to invest. Of course, that's just my take, and I'm sure many will disagree.

    • @SDShepard

      I think Ramsey has some decent advice for people getting out of debt, but it's clear he has no clue how the market works long term. A lot of his assets are tied up in real estate anyways. 4% makes the most sense for most people, but most people living off of their investments alone should be prepared to live on less than that depending on how young they retired. 3% is a much safer number to plan on in "worst case" scenarios if the market is down and you don't have liquidity or a side gig to fall back on.

      I understand your point. What I disagree with is how many people portray the stock market as a magical money-making machine. The problem is that half knowledge is worse than no knowledge at all. If an individual does not know about risk management, the quality of assets, or the concept of panic selling, they could potentially end up hurting their financial lives. It particularly bothers me because I’ve met people on both ends of the financial literacy spectrum. The knowledgeable will survive one way or another, but what about the rest? The content is primarily targeted for those. While I really appreciate the efforts these finfluencers are putting in, I would love to see them include more details, risks, and a clear representation of both the worst and best-case scenarios.

    With how hot the market has been this year, this video is a welcome reality check.
    I think the exciting thing that all of these content creators are trying to communicate to beginner investors is that once the average person reaches 100,000 dollars invested, they start to see growth in their portfolio that exceeds what they are able to save with their income. This is hugely exciting for a new investor because it finally feels like their assets are working harder for them than they are at their job.
    The part these creators don't mention is that with the upside there comes a downside. With 6 figures or more invested in the stock market there will be months and even years where investment losses also exceed earned income and investors need to be mentally prepared for that possibility.

      Also its weird to say that the stock market doesnt have "compounding". First there are dividends but even excluding that, if you have $100k and the stock market goes up 10% for rounded numbers you made $10k. If the next year the stock market goes up 10% you get more than $10k because you also earn off of your appreciated asset base. That is compounding.

    Appreciate the perspective. I also find it obnoxious how everyone repeats the same thing, not just regarding your net worth "exploding" at $100k but personal finance content in general. It's all so repetitive.
    A lot of what you're saying seems to be arguing semantics i.e. referring to portfolio returns as interest or saying "net worth" instead of investment portfolio. You're not wrong, I just don't think it's the biggest deal. A lot of people find finance and the jargon intimidating so it makes sense that finfluencers are trying to dumb it down to reach more people.
    Regarding the 7% claim, the S&P 500 has averaged a 7.5% annual return over the last 100 years. Of course, past performance doesn't indicate future results and returns vary greatly year over year, but over a long period of time I think 7% is a fair expectation. This point is usually made in these types of videos, with the main message being to stay the course regardless of annual performance.

    • @canadianmoneyroadmap

      You're right that the semantics aren't the biggest deal but if you're going to teach people about money, you need to understand what the words mean. A stock portfolio doesn't pay interest. Understanding that matters. Finance language is intimidating for sure but it doesn't mean we need to use wrong language to make it accessible.
      I'm fine with discussing averages but my whole point is that the path to average isn't a straight line. It gives people the wrong idea of what should be expected.

    I became a millionaire (net worth) around 32-33 which sounds CRAZY when I type that out, but it’s mainly just tied up in the equity of my home, or in a retirement savings account (Live in Aus.)
    We still live no different to how we did in our 20s, conservatively and always saving/investing. We don’t splurge, I work part time which is nice, but it’s nothing like people would expect. Investment income/returns are still vastly smaller than salary/wages, and it still requires lots of discipline and patience to build wealth. There aren’t any shortcuts.

    I watched Ramit's recent video about how it will take 20 more years to go from 100k to 1 million, which he says is 10x in only 3x the time it takes to get to 100k under the same assumptions.
    I get the point. I get that there's compounding. You should be investing in the stock market. I get that time works well in your favor the longer you let it cook.
    But it is still a slow process to 1 million (or whatever your goal is) unless you ramp up your contributions. Hardly an explosion. I don't want to wait 20 years if my goal is to watch my net worth explode.
    It's the same as going from 10k to 100k. Exponential curves are exponentials at all points of the curve.

    Hello. I'm new here. The UA-cam algorithm brought me here. I consume A LOT of personal finance videos. I appreciate that you are a CFP. You are right about the math. It took many years of watching numbers to realize that the greatest wealth builder is your income and a standard of living dramatically below your income so you can save aggressively. I hear people say it over and over again, that your income is your greatest wealth builder, but you can't really feel that impact until you are out of debt and living well below your means and putting money to work in assets, whether those assets be CDs at your bank or ETF stocks or real estate. These things take years, and aiming for 100k has allowed me to put my money to work, and THAT is helping me feel like I am getting ahead when combined with my income. Without income, none of this matters. Everything works in reverse.

You must have the psychology of a long term investor. That includes viewing a market/portfolio loss as a chance to buy discounted assets is essential for long term growth. ABB.
    It would have also been good to mention, when talking about net worth, that it’s all unrealized if it’s in the stock market. If you are counting your portfolio’s value in your net worth, you may want to consider making an adjustment that corrects it by a certain percentage. Be prepared for a scenario where your unrealized net worth can decrease.

  • @guanxinated

    What so egregious is that not even a $500k portfolio is enough to live on using something like the 4% rule, unless you drastically reduce your spending. So, in that sense, the $100k milestone is pretty meaningless. Then there's the volatility, so this stuff ends up being a nice bonus rather than a dependable tool in retirement, especially in a FIRE scenario.
    Best course of action is to significantly reduce one's spending and semi-retire. Maybe do Uber Eats or something like twice a week and sell 3% of your portfolio in up years. Don't sell in down years and pick up more shifts to cover your living expenses - ideally less than 60 hours/month, otherwise what's the point?

    I will say that even though I tend to agree with the folks you are criticizing, you bring up some important extensions to the analysis. But none of your points defeats the simple math at the core here.

    I agree. Only time there’s an “explosion of wealth” is if the person gets super lucky which likely isn’t going to be consistent. What is motivating though is seeing how much your investments are working for you over time. Fidelity has a chart that shows your portfolio amount and how much cash you’ve contributed.
    I’ve only been investing significant amounts for about 8 years and the biggest growth is how much I’ve been able to contribute. Early on it was a bit depressing since the returns were much less than the contributions. Only until last year has the gap between portfolio and amount contributed started growing by a good amount. This is mainly due to 2024 being a good year in the market which will help future years. Hope the trend continues!

Wealth does not grow meaningfully at $100k; with the current inflation and sheer cost of existence, even a 10-12% growth does not make a meaningful change to your life. Let alone, saving $100k over 8 years would probably wipe out 1/3 of that value in today's terms.

If the market drops, I buy more shares during those periods. This week my shares dropped by nearly 3 percent so I stuck an additional £300 in whilst the shares were a few pounds cheaper. If the market drops precipitously then I plan to put all of my spare money each month in and grab as many shares as possible whilst the price is down. When the stock market is growing I just stick to my standard order investment and don't add any additional share purchases for those months. I would imagine this is what a lot of investors do.
    I'm not far enough into my journey to hit 100K yet, currently at £30,000 but is my thinking here correct? I've been looking forward to a large stock market crash and a protracted bear market if it comes in the next couple years as I'm a good 18 to 20 years away from retirement. Obviously closer to the time it would be a bigger concern, but I'll be investing in alternatives to just equities by then.

      REITs are basically the real estate version of stocks, instead of owning a share of a company you own a share of an investment property (or set of properties). I wouldn't invest in REITs expecting substantially higher returns than stocks, in both cases there's a lot of variance but the long term averages are pretty similar. However, a good REIT index does help with diversification. Although there's some correlation between real estate and equity markets, when your S&P500 index fund is down 40% your REIT index might only be down 10%.

    I do understand what you’re saying but I think you’re missing the general point of what the videos are focused on. They’re using the term “explode” to simply get people to understand that the same return on a larger number equals a larger gain and over time, that compounds. Of course there will be bad years, but if you look at it over a long enough period of time, the number will generally rise. For someone who is trying to get to 100K invested, an 800K future scenario and a 1M future scenario are both better outcomes than the present scenario

      Do you think it's impossible? This is showing it's highly improbable but not impossible. But I also agree with you in that the model using his forecasted returns is creating some lower long term results than one would perhaps expect.

    • @kxjx
      @kxjx 4 дні тому

      It's not really like that. My understanding is that the forecast is point-in-time. So those kinds of situations are where the market has been higher in the intervening period during the buying phase and then has a massive crash just at the time when you need to sell. Most of the time we combat this by not making plans that require us to liquidate all our assets on one specific date in 30 years time.
      What it is really saying is there is a no negligible chance that on that specific selling date we will be in the bottom, but of course what we actually do is have a long selling phase. We try to buy the average and sell the average. Peak to trough or peak to peak is not a plan.

    I did a simple buy and hold strategy coupled with broad market index funds and I hardly ever looked at my balances. I have no idea when I crossed the million threshold because I wasn't watching. And yeah, I can't point at any particular time when my net worth "exploded". But as the years go by you do see that your portfolio growth depends less and less on contributions. And eventually the contributions almost become a rounding error compared to movements in the market.

      Totally fair and those are the years that set up for big portfolio gains in the future. But the investment itself was negative for the period, not up 7% per year. Money weighted matters but the other videos talk about time weighted. The point is, the market doesn't go straight up every year.

    Portfolio visualizer is a great tool to get familiar with the long-term dynamics of investment choices. The percentile trends lines can be misleading because the percentiles are evaluated for each intermediate year. It gives the false impression that if you start in the upper valuation percentile you will stay there for the duration, enjoying the exponential growth of the percentile you are currently in.
    Other tools show individual trajectories that show that you can be in the upper value percentiles in the middle of the period and still end up in the lower value percentiles at the end of the period. You can't escape from the point of the market cycle you are in.

      Most investments have a blend of value, growth, dividend stocks, bonds etc and many more asset classes. 7% dividends on an average is not realistic even if the entire portfolio is made up of dividend stocks. The problem is that everyone tries to teach you compound interest in the context of investments and its not a good idea.

    • @feldhdleh
      @feldhdleh 5 днів тому

      The correct term is "returns". Investments produce "returns" of all types. And, in some cases the returns are delivered as interest, or dividends, or capital appreciation or coupon interest, or a capital gain. Dividends are a type of "return". Interest is a type of "return". That is why we use the term "return on investment" to describe an or all of this.

    The point is solid, but too detailed for the average beginner viewer to digest. The simplicity and (baseline) principles Ramit and others are trying to teach make sense and ARE valid. (Even if the specifics are a bit more nuanced)
    I don’t think ANYONE questions the fact that your portfolio will grow faster after 100k than it did at 1k. (Assuming equal contributions). “Exploding,”….thats a subjective metric, and a term likely used to generate clicks rather than teach an idea.

    You obviously don't listen to Remit on a regular basis. He goes over people's debt and how they should pay them off and not get into more debt with a big car payment etc... Also , if you invest in etfs that pay you dividends and you reinvest those dividends once you reach 100k it would grow alot faster if you continue to invest while reinvesting your dividends.
