Its worse here, our economy is like a flailing fish, fighting for its life. The normal state of the U.S. economy is actually very bad. Because of this it goes into convulsive spasms fighting to grow any way it can out of desperation. Tricks, gimmicks, rule changes try to stimulate the economy and prevent it from falling but they only bring temporary relief to people since, when you factor in inflation we are declining.
People believe their currency has the worth it does because they have no other option. Even in a hyperinflationary environment, individuals must continue to use their hyperinflationary currency since they likely have minimal access to other currencies or gold/silver coins.
Inflation is gradually going to become part of us and due to that fact any money you keep in cash or in a low-interest account declines in value each year. Investing is the only way to make your money grow and unless you have an exceptionally high income, investing is the only way most people will ever have enough money to retire.
I've tried investing in the stock market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of stock value. I would be happy if you could advise me based on how you went about yours, as I am ready to go the passive income path.!!

Quick notes for new investors: 1. *NEVER* use an "advisor" you find in a youtube comment thread (including all the ones you'll find below). 2. If you just walk into a bank to talk to someone about investments, they'll likely be more sales agents than genuine advisors, trying to sell you the bank's (possibly expensive) products. 3. Deep dive The Plain Bagel's videos, and the other channels he sometimes lists (e.g. Ben Felix) to pick up a bunch of great tips, learn how it all works, and things to watch out for and avoid (like your buddy telling you to jump on the latest fad).
This can all be confusing, but it doesn't have to be complicated. Good luck!
Absolutely !
Bot-tacular comment
Oof, and just to remove confusion, the posts that *appear* to be from The Plain Bagel aren't. It's a scammer bot, and the real Bagel has even made a video about it.
Better to ask a wealthy friend / family member for a reference
@Hally Cricket That's a lot of ten dollar words you crammed into your scammy advertisement for a dodgy investment advisor.....
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
A friend of mine referred me to financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $110k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $294,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.
I am new to the stock market. Every stock that I bought so far, I was out of luck because I bought them when they were expensive. I feel I missed out on all the stock opportunities so far for the tech stocks.I believe having 150K yearly income would be a good investment so I want to plug all my savings into the stock market. I know this sounds a bit dull but I would like to know if I should learn investing or let somebody else (more capable like a FA) do it for me? Please share your thoughts. I am kind of tired of searching for a good stock to buy and losing all the good opportunities.
@Pamcheryl Who is the professional who is advising you, if you could perhaps tell us? As a novice investing in stocks without the correct direction of a professional, I have lost a lot of money.
@BEAUTIFULDIANAFRANCIS Cynthia Alexandra Depken is the licensed fiduciary I use for guidance. I do not think self-investing worth is worth it from my experience. Some may have no account minimums and charge annual management fees of less than 0.5% per amount managed. Self-directed investment accounts have the lowest fees and give you the most freedom, but the risks are higher. A safer choice is to hire a financial advisor and let them guide your investment strategy.
I see no reason for stressing yourself over these things when you can get a financial advisor. A financial advisor can help you determine if dividend investing is a good fit for your financial goals and can help you develop a strategy. They can also help you consider your risk tolerance, liquidity needs, and short- and long-term goals. Consulting a financial advisor can be especially helpful if you're new to buying and selling individual dividend stocks. You can also ask your advisor questions about reinvesting your dividends.
Why have an Advisor when you can just invest everything to a Nigerian Prince who promised me hell give me 5% ROI per day converted to Gold 😂😂😂
Pffffft, mine said he would pay me in bitcoin
I wonder what happened to His Majesty. Its been a long time. I hope he's well.
Mine said he will give me 10,000,000$ USD for a 100$ transaction fee. Still waiting, but I will have a huge return for investment
Nigerian Princes are so early 2000s, TikTok eboys handing out crypto fin advice is where it's at now 😎
Tax management is a HUGE benefit of advisors. They know ways to reduce taxes you’ll never think of.
My friend is a financial advisor and he bragged to me about how they charge fees for things that people can/should be doing on their own.
Broski literally went on for a while on how he makes bank playing with other people's money and there is no risk to him at all.
I will never use a financial advisor because of this one person.
some advisors put considerable funds matching what they suggest/do with their clients money. If they aren't either making more when I make more or having money in the same stocks it is a lot harder to have faith.
It's lucrative work if you can get it. A friend of mine fixes computer problems in people's homes. Sometimes they just need a new cable. He sometimes feels guilty about taking their money, but that's basically a microcosm of the entire economy works. I pay for a lawyer because I don't know how to represent myself: other people pay for financial advice or computer advice because they don't know how to do that.
Mechanics charge for things people “can/should” do on their own too. Same thing for computer repair services. And basically every service out there. Unless you have a disability you can learn how to accomplish literally everything in your life outside of select medical treatments, but you can’t learn all of them at the same time, or in one life.
Personally I’d go to a mechanic every time because I want it done right, and my time is better spent doing other things. No shade to people who do this stuff themselves, that’s awesome. They might be the sort to pay someone to fix their computer which is cool too, even though that’s not something I’d ever do. This is why humans, as a species, are so successful: We don’t all need to know everything, instead we can trade for skills and knowledge of others.
I’m a DIY investor, but, knowing one person that charges people for things their customers could do themselves is actually two stupid reasons to not get an advisor:
1. They know more than you, and actually know to so these things that people could do for themselves. Knowing the things to do is the first step in doing them, and actually doing them is the second, if people aren’t doing it themselves (for whatever reason) and if paying someone else to do it costs less than the benefit, what’s the problem?
2. The fact that you’re friends with an idiot doesn’t mean everyone in that profession is an idiot on too.
You do you, obviously. I don’t have or use an advisor myself, but I’m comfortable with my knowledge at this point. That will change in the future, assuming things go well.
you can also fix your sink by yourself
I have learned WAY MORE watching several professionals like Warren Buffet give their approach than ANY over eager advisor. Most importantly, You only need a few good stocks to do well. Index funds are a no brainer with minimal risk in the long run.
Index funds are only as good as the overall economy. Personally I'm too pessimistic and sceptical to keep my money in stock market very long in any form without close attention.
I'm just waiting for the eurozone collapse, and trading stocks I find solid in the meantime, ready to jump out before the fires start.
@@jhutt8002 The end game depends on how long you have. If you've got decades until retirement you might as well jump in. I'm 57 and I have yet to hear an advisor get it right. Both seeing a fall or a rise.
@@jhutt8002 After every crash there is a boom. Markets never in their history stayed low but recovered after a few years.
@@cherchehacknostale True.
But what's the point of dangling your money for months or years on an investments that are more likely to go down than up? That's what I've never understood about long run investing.
If you sell, and turns out you we're wrong, at least you've won a little and If you are right; you win a lot more.
And you can always buy back in when you assess things are coming out better.
BUT if you don't sell and stock falls... That's lost profit you can bever get back AND you're just lost possibly years worth of time in stock.
It's honest question. Why is that considered in any way as a smart strategy?
J Hutt if you are so confident a stock will fall you can sell call credit spreads or put debit spreads, and you will make a lot of money with very low risk. However, if you are wrong you will lose money. The truth is, holding is better unless you are a seasoned and skilled trader. There is a reason only 10% of traders outperform the market in the long term.
I do both. I'm happy with my local advisor and I try my best using Fidelity.
I started out with a financial advisor but quickly decided to change the approach. My financial advisor was putting my money in mutual funds that were both expensive and had a mediocre history. I'm much better off now managing my own portfolio with a zero-fee broker.
But you need to know what you are doing ....
@@kirilmihaylov1934 True!
@@FelipePereiraFP most people don't. What do you invest in
@@kirilmihaylov1934 Mostly ETFs and index funds.

Two things you never should outsource: your love life and your wealth management. To both applies: start early in life, improve over time 😉
Not everyone is 18 years old with $1k to invest. People's financial complexity can increase over time to necessitate a financial advisor.

Don't fall in his trap, people!
@@leafinwind9945 Don't answer to them, just report them as unwanted commercial/spam and move on: they are bots not people.
Two other things to look out for when hiring a financial advisor:
1. Has the advisor faced disciplinary action by the authorities (previously been involved in a fraud)?
2. Does the adviser have a fiduciary duty solely towards you or is he/she protecting the interest of someone else?
Lastly, don't be afraid to learn a thing or two about investing or finance, because knowledge is power!
I'm loving the increasing quality of this channel over time.
Agreed.
Excellent topic choice - be wary of advisors who make money from the investment they peddle instead of charging you for their 'advice'...
I have a financial advisor through fidelity since 2016. I am up 82% in my portfolio. I am definitely ok with my 1% fee. 👍
What did you invest in? Just asking out of curiosity.
I've been with Fidelity for my retirement account for many years. A couple years ago I seeked out advice from them and they wanted to pawn me off to someone outside. Then I'd have to pay the advisor and Fidelity for their kick back too. It all felt kinda sleezy. Was there a specific type of advisor or arrangement you got? I'd pay 1% for some good guidance but feel like more would be too much. And the advisor better be making way more than that 1%.
If you just invest in s&p500 with a fee of 0.06% or basically zero, you would have got 105%. And you paid 1% for 5 years so your 82% is 77%. That's a 28% difference. Your statement is the proof that going with an advisor is not recommended
@@qifridek you missed the entire point of the video. Not everyone is capable of handling a portfolio. I am naturally a worrier and if i had access to my account I would have closed it down during the 2018 trade war crash and the pandemic crash. So I would have lost out on huge gains. They talked me off the ledge and am still here. So yeah that 1% is worth it. Also you have to understand that we humans are irrational and our brains evolved to avoid risk. I will bet $1000 that 95% of people in that situation would have sold. Theory works well on paper but practically it hardly works out has planned.
@@theamazingguy150 all high growth mutual funds.
The biggest benefit of an advisor is, when the market crashes, and you panic, and you call them to have them sell everything under management, they can say "wooooah, buddy, slow down" lol
I really like your content and appreciate your input a lot !

I unsubscribed from them after promoting falss narrative that reddit is trying to squeeze silver. They constantly take politcal opinions anyway, its trash after a while you begin to see through the shambles
@@buckyfanksy I try my best to seek out reasonably unbiased sources. I hope you're wrong, but in case your not, I'll be paying closer attention now. Thanks friend.
@@BeardyMcBeardstein sure, pay more attention if they cater more to CNBC narratives rather than the consumer and truth
Two thoughts. (1) People watching this video are likely to be committed to educating themselves about investing, and therefore more likely to not seek out an adviser. Generally, people watching this video are probably not representative of the general public. (2) Once your financial affairs are more complex, I can see a lot of sense in seeking out a financial adviser. Not for stock picking, but more generally for broad asset allocation, transition to retirement, insurance, etc.
Learn about investing as much as you can. Use an advisor for additional advice and suggestions but not blindly trust them to manage your portfolio as they see fit. I have received some very good advice from my advisor as well as some very bad ones.
I assure you my magic 8-ball is all the advice I need.
My dad invested with an advisor who put his money into an oil pipeline that immediately tanked in value. Lost pretty much all of his savings and had to start over.
did he keep his money in so he got some back when they climbed out of their slump?
Don't pay someone for 'advice' only to have them sell you third-party products that have exorbitant fees.
They tell you that they are 'incentivized' by your gains/success but have zero at risk.
Financial advisors invest your money until it's all gone.
You don't know what you're taking about.
@@jonathans7089 good refutation
Similar is the case with lawyers but there is no other way around in that case
In UK it is now illegal for financial advisors to get commission from the third-party products. I don't know how the situation in other countries but that statement isn't true in UK at least.
@@jonathans7089 I have spent 20 years in the business and am a CFA candidate. ..I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about.
good background is back. Yaayyy
@Phi6er haha. correct
Speaking as a former financial advisor, best solution is to ask a friend that has expertise in investing. Someone that can give you advice without conflict of interest to sell you anything
Love this colored background btw, you can even experiment with new color combinations 😄
With a small amount of self-education to understand diversification and risk, IMO you can get appropriate exposure with just a handful of ETFs/index funds.
Honest, genuine and unbiased. Love your content and I eagerly wait every alternate Friday for your video to show up. Great job... Cheers!!!
I love my financial advisor. I’m up 34% in my portfolio since 2017
The idea of investing is to make money and be, hopefully, more comfortable and less stressed
Advisors do all the work so that I can enjoy these benefits while enjoying my own personal life
Which ones did you use and what did they invest in? Just curious.
You'd be better off putting your money in a broad S&P index fund ETF. Something like SPY, has had a return of around 74% since the beginning of 2017 and 46% since the end of 2017. Way more than what your advisor has given you and without any fees. This also comes with the benefit of not having to worry about it because it in itself is extremely diverse.
This was a really well-balanced take, but I think it overlooked how HUGE the cost of a financial advisor can be over a lifetime. If you make market returns with an advisor who takes a 1 to 2% (or more) per year, the lifetime cost of that advisor for an average retirement saver can easily be $100k+ and if you live a long semi-prosperous life with 95th percentile wealth, maybe $500k+. When you think about numbers like that, compared to the amount of work it takes to learn how to manage and invest a passive or semi-passive portfolio, the answer is clear. This video really made it seem like it was a 50/50 argument, but in reality 95% of people are fully able to learn how to manage their finances appropriately in a few weekends with resources available online for free. For those with more complex financial situations, it might make sense, but those people are a minority. Anyways, love the channel and sorry I nitpicked this one to comment on
If you only invest 100k in one go with a 8% return and 2% fee for 25 years. Your 100 000 turned into 330k and the advisor just took 255 000 and deprived you of the 585k you could have done...
My FA went from living in a modest semi detached to a huge detached house within several acres of its own land within the five years I was invested ! His fees weren’t exorbitant and he was a decent guy. My investments hardly moved in that time. The point is that FAs simply sell you a model portfolio take their fee and then bung the thing in a filing cabinet to gather dust or stagnate ! They are just salespeople. Why couldn’t he do for me what he’s done for himself ? The truth is that they can’t anyway because they are rule bound these days. They can’t take any risks with your money or give you tips etc.. like they used to years ago. So, in my view there is absolutely no point in hiring these people nowadays unless your best mate or a family friend is one.
My strategy is having an advisor as a back-up plan while i invest most of my money myself. But choose this because i like to invest both as a hobby and as a financial strategy, and despite having only a half of year of real experience, i have pretty good results. I also studied stocks before actually investing in my free time.
Hope you’re doing well admist the stock market madness
Amazing neutral video with honest perspectives and views. Highly appreciate this channel ♥️
If You Self Trade the extra Cost can be 300$ per Year Advisor gets paid 1% so if you have $30K you pay 300$ Per year so you can say if you have $60K then you pay 600$ so Pay Double the Self Trade cost in such moments the More money you have Invested the more you Pay the Advisor so be sure you change it if the Service (You Pay the Bank for bearly any extra work maby 2 Times Per Year a 1 Hour Talk about your Investments) is getting Expensive
I think the era of a financial advisor who will handle your relatively straightforward stock portfolio with minimal input from you is over. Target date retirement funds and roboadvisors have filled that role. Now a financial advisor needs to earn their keep by proactively managing complex situations, not doing the exact same thing a 3 fund portfolio does while costing me 95% less.
I never once had an advisor even when I first started but you best believe I researched my ass off, investing is a lot more in depth and intricate then I originally thought so imo you don’t have to but doing a lot of research and starting slow is a good way to start
A very informative video which was equally understandable without much confusing. Thanks for this.
Maybe it’s the skeptic in me but I always do my own research before taking someone else’s word. My dad always told me there’s nothing free in life lol
You are really good at explaining things. Can you explain in a video why rising bond rates are causing equities to fall?
Wasn't there a report that said 85% of hedge funds didn't outperform the S&P in one year and 92% didn't outperform the S&P over a decade?

You don't need an advisor. We have the internet.
Yes
I will never hire an advisor. Why would I pay for someone to tell me things I can look up and learn for myself?
Not when your advisor dont even know what is ROI. And she is certificated as a legitimate financial advisor by the company and my government regulatory.
I do a bit of self learning on investing before engage an advisor. And it stun me the level of competency as anyone to qualified as an advisor.
Until now i do wish to find a "competent" financial advisor to manage my portfolio but the sad truth is that the market is flooded with incompetent advisor that only interested in their own commission. So is much better to do self financing despite the amount of self-learning.
Well done mr. bagel
My investment situation is that I can't tolerate losing any money, I need a return that after taxes keeps up with inflation, and I anticipate to need some or all of the money within 3 years.
And in this market environment I'm convinced that this is impossible. "Risk free" returns don't keep up with inflation, even before taxes, and a three year time frame prohibits any investments that might go down in value. At this point, 3 year bonds offer about the same return of a "high yield" savings or money market account meaning that even if inflation is really "only" 2% over the next 3 years, that's a guaranteed loss of $1,700 for every $100,000 saved. What do I need to pay an investment advisor another $1,000 per 100k for? To offer me comfort that I'm being eaten alive?
yeah 3 years is a very...very short term investment
Congrats on the sponsorship Richard!
Q's 1) can an advisor/account manager force through their actions the investor to take capital gains (e.g. rebalancing the portfolio, liquidating a position that is showing bad indicators)?
2) if ETFs/indexes are "safer investments" because they have historically had net positive value, isn't this a contradiction of the philosophy of "past performance is not an indicator of future performance" or "this is just too big to fail"
3) not even butter on the bagel?
How about a video on hedge funds? What do they do? How do they do it and why are they in the news so often?
Agreed
Lately they're in the news because they take huge risks (with borrowed money) and then sometimes blow it. The GME thing was the first time they made such a huge bet and lost, so they lost billions and made many investors rich.
As a CFP advisor in Canada (who watches all your videos) this is spot on!
Thank you for Morning brew ! Great video !
That "sexy elevator music" nicely blends in 😄
I'm not looking for someone to fish for me, but I could use an advisor that can teach me to fish. Is the "guidance and counseling" portion something that can be taken advantage of in isolation where I just pay them by the hour rather than them taking a percentage of my portfolio year over year? I might see a stock with sound fundamentals that is trading well below its intrinsic value and want a second educated opinion before committing significant funds or I might wish to refine my method for selling covered options. Can I get the assistance of a financial advisor for short term guidance like this?
I’ve wondered this as well
But if it was easy to blow your money on bad stock picks, wouldn't you be able to make money by shorting the stocks suggested? The easiest way to lose all your money is through fees and options, not with bad stock picks.
Can you do another video of the "Investor Profile" series, maybe a shark from shark tank... Or a tech giant??
Most retail advisors know nothing, unless they recommend investing in a total market fund.
What a silly comment!
@@northyrs7240 no he is right. Most people don't have a clue about investing .Including advisors.
Great video! Maybe you can talk about what makes a good advisor
Unfortunately what I think is likely the best option is not available for most. One with incentives aligned, a 0/6/25 fee structure, but you have to be "sophisticated".
I'll manage my own.
Thank you for such great videos.
I didn't panic sell when the market plummeted during covid I was buying as much as I could., I don't need an advisor.
The problem is that most people who need "expert" advice don't have the ability to identify the true experts from those who are just pretending they know what they're talking about, those who don't actually know anything, and those who don't know that they don't actually know anything.
I remember seeing a number before, people who has an advisor are more than 70%-130% (can't remember the exact) more successful in finances. Guess the key is to find a quality advisor
Awesome, we got the colored background again.
Theres actually research that people that live off their portfilio should use more stocks than bonds
Valuable advice, thank you 🙏🏽👍
Thank you for this informative video!
There are numerous investment newsletters that pick stocks and charge a flat fee per year, somewhere in the $200 or $300 range. I'm sure everyone has seen ads of motley fools and seeking alpha. If your assets are a few hundreds of thousands of dollars or more, you would be paying 0.1% or less.
If the advisor stops you from putting your life savings on GameStop, then that advisor is worth the money...
My gut told me not to dive into the GME craze, I think my gut is a half-decent advisor by itself heh
Nice breakdown. Now that people are more aware of fees it's easier to make a smarter decision
That small Dalbar Gap is a 2019 number, it ought to widen out when the 2020 number comes in a few months from now.
The average investor does fine when the market rises all year, as in 2019.
This is nuts. Should I also give up my Dr., lawyer, accountant and realtor??
Been reading the little book of common sense investing by john bogle. Even though he's anti actively managed funds and fund managers in general, he does say that a financial advisor may be helpful in things like tax efficiency and retirement advise which sounds fair
@The Plain Bagel you scam bots are annoying as hell
Solid video as always. I'm investing myself, half in a handful of ETF's, half in specific growth stocks.
NOW wait a minute, I just had to pause and comment. What do you mean chasing meme stocks is not enough? Bro, do you even YOLO?
(just kidding, love your videos and how you manage to keep it fun AND educational). Also, cheers to the new member of the Bagel family!
advisor.. *charges high fees* puts your money in index funds....
HONEST advisors just put you in index funds, the salesmen put you in active funds with 5 % loads...
Good Advisers will build you a portfolio that gives you exposure to the factors known to produce returns. They do this via index funds. However, they earn their keep through coaching and tax management.
@@JamesShack There is a lot that goes into being a good advisor. I could put you guys into an index fund for free, but you might sell it in a market downturn, if you didn't have anyone advising you on how the market and taxes work.
@@sprinkle61 i’m an adviser too 😉
I have investments with a financial advisor and my own investments too. It's because of a very specific situation that won't apply to many people. The gains from my own investments are far greater so far.
Been in the industry for a decade and my honest take is that if you aren’t prone to bad decision financially and you know how RRSP/TFSAs work (I’m Canadian) and you have less than 100k you should probably discount broker an index fund. The advisor you would get has a high likelihood to have less knowledge than you at that point especially at the banks. Once you have more than that I find usually the tax and strategy advice from a *real* advisor will substantially beat an individual investor paying no fees. And your fees will significant reduce as assets grow. I find the competitive pricing is around 1-1.5% on an entire portfolio for 500k but I’ve seen portfolios north of 1m being charged less than 1% on average. If your situation doesn’t sound close to this you are probably getting taken for a bit of a ride. Great video probably the best advice for finances I see online!
I don't wanna figure it out yet I have insanely high tolerance risk, so dumping money into s&p500 sounds fun to me
I wanna be a financial advisor but I don’t wanna screw people over, Ik I can use knowledge from these videos to help others who do not come across these videos
Who needs an advisor when you can just be 100% Tesla stock
No diversity isn't very wise
@@faithhopeloveislife Diversity is good when you don’t have confidence in your investments. I’ve done enough research into Tesla that I’m confident the share price will more than double in the next 1-2 years, and 5-10x in the next 10ish years. While this does lead to fluctuations where I can lose 5-10% of my net wealth in a day, so long as I don’t sell, I have full confidence that the price will restore back to what it was before
@@bcunningham3718 so you’re telling me in 10ish years Tesla will be worth 4-8 trillion dollars? For some perspective, most valuable company in the world right now is worth about 1.7 trillion. Btw, I went all in on Tesla at $68.80 a share November 24th 2019. I sold in January for a gain of 955% because of comments like this. People believe that it will be worth this much and it never will be, market correction before it happens. Too much good news it’s just craziness at this point
@@bubber9230 I understand where you’re coming from with “No ones ever done it before therefore it wont happen” but that isn’t the way we should be reasoning when talking about disruptive innovation. Instead take a look at the company and what they’re doing, If they solve autonomy, that’s a multi-trillion dollar opportunity that could literally replace 2 million+ jobs in America alone. They also will be selling around 20 million vehicles a year then, which if you do a simple calculation using an average selling price of ~30k and 30% margin (these are both low balls imo) is already 180 billion in pure profit per year. Then add on robotaxi revenue, insurance, and in car entertainment and you can see why I think the way I do. Plus this doesn’t even touch their other opportunities like Solar, energy storage, auto bidder, and possibly new ones like HVAC Elon has talked about.
