    I’m about to turn 28 in a few months. I’m just now able to save these kinds of percentages because I had a lot of setbacks in life (abusive parents, on my own at 18, no college degree) but I’ve worked really hard and I’m so thankful to hear it’s not to late for me to have a big beautiful tomorrow!

    Thank you for expanding my understanding of personal finance and investment. I recently subscribed to your channel. I'd like to express my appreciation to everyone working diligently to earn a living and accumulate wealth during this recession. My husband and I are both retired and debt-free, and we're being prudent and frugal with our finances. Despite the recession, we continue to generate passive income through our savings and investments in the financial market. This investment-focused lifestyle has allowed us to receive a consistent monthly income through passive means, for which we are truly grateful.

    I had initially planned to retire at 62, work part-time, and save money, but the impact of high prices on various goods and services has significantly disrupted my retirement plan. I'm worried about whether those who experienced the 2008 financial crisis had it easier than I currently am. The volatility of the stock market is a concern as my income has decreased, and I fear that I won't be able to contribute as much as before, potentially jeopardizing my retirement savings.

      Reaching this mile marker of nearing 60 years old I can tell you that my husband and I never thought that the financial crisis of 2008 was an easy thing to live through. Many aspects of our financial life (as well as that of most every other investor's financial life at that time) were negatively affected. Housing VALUES DROPPED, wages across the board were affected negatively, etc. It takes time for financial markets to recover, but they do. I got nervous at the time, but my very intelligent spouse told me we needed to stay the course. We did. The stock market is by nature volatile. Stress is stress. No one can get away from it. I disagree with the idea that Baby Boomers had it "easier" back then. I can tell you that no one made us multi - millionaires, but my husband and I, engineer and teacher. We did not inherit ANY money. Invest, learn how to correctly invest. I really like this channel for these reasons. Sound advice from The Money Guy team.

      Average marketplace healthcare premium for a 60 year old is more than $1000. Not to mention that most people are better off delaying social security til at least 67. They focus on 65 because they are grounded in reality, and retiring responsibly and safely is significantly easier at 65 than it is at 60.

      @tyrelclark8348 5 місяців тому +1

      I'm with you there. Yes, 65 is safer. Yes 65 (changing to 67?) is full retirement age for social security. Maybe 65 was in reference to medicare? I don't that age. Regardless, I think there's value in trying to be ready sooner if one can invest adequately. Worst case scenario, we would have more money to retire at 65.

Can I pull those funds now and put them into my Roth IRA instead? Penalties? I will eventually max out my Roth IRA no matter what (because FOO). Alternatively, can I just take a hit for exactly one year's filings and apply any excess which I contributed in 2024 toward 2025, thereby keeping the money in play but not incurring a repeating penalty nor an early withdrawal penalty?

Save/invest as much as you can and as you get 5 years out from retirement, figure out what you need to live on and with the pension, when you can retire. Can you invest in the S&P500 where you live?

I’m not saving for my entire life just to be able to partially enjoy it for 10-15 years. I say partially because there’s not too many things you’re doing at 65 yrs old. I want to enjoy that while I’m young and can still move(30’s-50’s). I’d rather sacrifice my 20’s and some of my 30’s saving extremely aggressively, living a minimalist life lifestyle so that I can reach my goal faster and be able to enjoy it in my 40’s all the way till death, over saving moderately for pretty much my entire life only to be able to do elderly things with it for 10-15 years then. Even if I lived longer, I still would be able to do less and less over time. Idk why people plan that way. It’s a waste of time imo. Unless you want to pass it down or something, because you certainly can’t enjoy your wealth to the fullest at that age.
      Also I started investing in index funds at 29. I WISH I knew about stocks in my teenage years. I promise I wouldn’t be working now, or would have maybe 6 years left of working. I would tell any teenager to start investing now. There’s a reason they don’t teach stocks in school 😂

      A home is a lifestyle investment and net returns after all the mintainance costs, loan interest, insurance, and property taxes are accounted for are negligible in most cases. If you have a majority of your networth tied up in your personal residence, you aren't wealthy. So let's do what you say and see it as an investment and diversification..... a personal residence is a highly illiquid and undiversified asset.... if someone came to you and said, " I want to put 70-90% of my networth into an illiquid and undiversified investment." Without you knowing it was a personal residence, I bet you would be screaming "no! That's so risky!"
      But they say don't worry, there isn't much risk because it's a bond paying 3%!.... your answer would still be a hard no...
      I'll keep home equity to sub 10-15% of my networth because I want the vast majority of my networth to be investments that return 4-6% above inflation on average instead of right around inflation like most personal residences.

I definitely want to earn as much as possible, but I don't think needing $400k+/yr is a reasonable benchmark for a comfortable life, even accounting for inflation over 2-3 decades. Also, saving $3,400 a month as a 20 year old would be like 75-100% of the average wage for that decade, definitely not realistic unless they are already independently wealthy or in the top 0.1% of income earners.

    Probably not very helpful to talk about the 20s. As a matter of fact, I doubt any 20s would watch this video if at all.

      Smart people in their 20s watch it! I personally know of a few "kids" that do and it is paying off for them, big time!

    Try living in Commiefornia during your prime earning years, and living through the Great Recession, losing your home and taking on debt just to survive through it - that's when all financial planning and good financial behavior flew out the window for many.

    Cheapest house on best street is about where and what to buy, not how much to spend! The idea is that this costs the same as the most expensive house on the worst street. The reason for this choice is to give up some luxuries today (cheapest house) for higher resale tomorrow (best street). This is fully aligned with thinking about your future self. I do agree there can be a pitfall if the best street environment is going to cause lifestyle creep in other areas.
