    You don’t become a millionaire through saving. Most millionaires say that’s the biggest myth. You become a millionaire through sales of a product or service or investing. Selling items in your closet won’t produce a lot of money unless you have thousands of pounds worth of designer outfits and you use that money to reinvest into something.

      This was part of her journey she doesn't say she only did this to become a millionaire I don't think you understand what she even says in the video !!! Nobody becomes millionaire by only Saving but it is part of the journey to become successful by learning how to save and what kind of ways exist to save

      Yeah true agree, tho lot of successful personalities buys lot of cheaper things,
      Wisely thinking, depends of "the actual usage as well as the durability of that cheaper thing".
      Doesn't mean your reach means it is wise and would help you grow by buying expensive brands, status symbol.

    I totally agree with the first advice. I recently invested in a Herman Miller Aeron chair, specially because I have spine issues (I got a disk operated two years ago), but also because I was always looking for better options than I had. I bought a 250$ chair, and the next month I wanted a 300$ one cause it has headrest. When I bought the HM Aeron for 1500$, I have never felt stressed again by getting the best option available and this chair is going to stay with me a life time.

    Extraordinary person reading this, you are not define by your circumstance or your past. It’s not what happened to you that determines your success in life; it is how you deal with those circumstances that determines your success in life! You are strong, you are capable and practice forgiveness (Forgiveness is for you) and gratitude everyday. This will change the course of your life forever! Love you always and I believe in you wholeheartedly ✨❤️ - Nat

    The first one is legit 100%, I bought like 25 of 3-7$ cases from Amazon and i never felt enough until one day i decided with Apple's original case for 59$, it may sounds a lot at first but right after i had that piece, never have buying cheap cases crossed my mind ever again LOL, it may be incomparable to the value item that you got (LV Bag) but I totally relate to it. AND WHAT'S FUNNIER is that I never realized this until I hear your first tips! Hahaha thanks Marina!

    Man, I love how your channel is more advice oriented now. Your advice is absolutely "fire", to use a modern term lol.
    Truly, though, really good stuff. Your life path is different than most people giving advice, so combined with your personality, your advice is actually unique. And even when it's similar, it's different enough to get the brain's reticular activation system to pay attention. So it's just perfect! I just love it.

    Marina, I grew up in Cupertino to a blue color family with parents that lived through the great depression. We shopped at J.C. Penny's, and Sear. My parents didn't know about investing and it was in the 1970s after I graduated from high school that IRAs and 401K became a thing. Because of this, I didn't learn about investing. I'm lucky in that I have bought houses that have appreciated in Santa Clara County. Between my military and government careers, I will have a good retirement.

    I also come from a family where saving was important and finding something at a cheap price was like a little victory. But I can't complain, I was lucky and I had a nice life and I also got some 'start' capital from my parents when entering adulthood. My father actually gifted me some gold coins after graduating high school. As I didn't know better, I spent most of it on concert tickets and enjoying life. Oh what I would do differently as my now wiser self :D
    The concept of investing to grow assets in order have more freedom in life came a few years later. But thinking back to my childhood, investing was not as accessible as it is today, at least for regular people. And there was also very little information. It has only been during the last 5+ years, that I have seen a huge rise in teaching the young and the old about handling and growing money. And it is awesome as investing has become somewhat a new national sport for Estonians (where I am from) along with ice dipping :D
