Diversification is the secret to optimal performance. This is why I have my interests set on market sectors based on performance and projected growth, such as the EV sector, renewable energy, Tech, and Health. Keep investing regularly and you'll be blown away how much it can change in a few short years. Here's to $1 million and to FIRE
If you don’t understand the markets, stick to an index like the S&P 500. Dollar cost average and hold long term, or better still consider financial advisory to avoid losses
Sometimes I'm surprised most people don't even know they can do that. I've been making at least 200k every year from my investments by working with an FA. When you realise it, it feels like a life hack.
Wow, that's interesting . I've recently been exploring the option of working with an FA too. Any chance you could recommend who you work with? in her area and works for Empower Financial
‘’Aileen Gertrude Tippy’’ is her name. She is regarded as a geniusl Services. By looking her up online, you can quickly verify her level of experience. She is well knowledgeable about financial markets.
Thanks a lot for the recommendation. I'll send her an email and I hope I'm able to connect with her.
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies
The key to big returns is not big moving stocks. It's managing risk in relationship to reward. Having the correct size on and turning your edge as many times as necessary to reach your goal. That holds true from long term investing to day trading.
Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again.
I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisors online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation??
‘Diana Casteel Lynch’ is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thank you for this Pointer. It was easy to find your handler, She seems very proficient and flexible. I booked a call session with her.
I love this caller. She's committed to the process, thinking long-term, and did her research before calling. It's nice listening to the smart callers instead of people who bought dumb things and want Dave to think they were the exception.
We shouldn’t judge people, the fact the that those people find Dave and follow him is a sign that they are taking accountability for their mistakes. We don’t know what those people went through.
@@dopeminguez24 you know what, you are right.
The thing to me is, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. $52k dividends received in july 2022.
That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.
I believe if it's an IRA, the 10 year rule would prevent this. You could do it with an investment account, though.
I love the insight. Professionals could make a really big difference in investing, and I think everyone should have one. There are aspects of market trend that is difficult for the untrained eyes to see. I have made more than 350% through my estateplanner(fa) by alternative investing. The portfolio comes with perks as well.
One of my goals is to employ the service of an asset-manager this year. I've seen some off social media but wasn't able to get a response. Could you recommend one?
’DIANA CASTEEL LYNCH’ is the manager I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
I enjoy investing in closed-end funds that offer monthly dividends. The key strategy is to hold these investments long-term while reinvesting the monthly dividends and purchasing additional shares whenever possible. This approach is convenient because closed-end funds are traded on the stock market like regular stocks. Following this strategy could build a portfolio that generates between $50,000 to $70,000 in dividend income.
I agree because there are opportunities in the market doesn’t mean you should go in blindly. To understand the potential factors that contribute to your financial growth, I'll advise you to seek the help of a professional.
You're right! I diversified my $400K portfolio across various markets with the help of my financial advisor, and I've been able to generate over $1.2 million in net profit from high dividend yield stocks, ETFs, and bonds during this downturn.
That's quite impressive! Can you share more information about your financial advisor?
‘Grace Adams Cook’ is the licensed advisor I use. Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
Thank you for this amazing tip. I just looked the name up, wrote her explaining my financial market goals and scheduled a call.
Once I got out of debt. I started investing like 40% because I felt behind after being in debt my whole adult life. I know most can't or won't do it but I am doing what nobody else will do now so later I can live, give and retire early like nobody as can or will.
I’m doing a mix of both. I’m still going on two or three vacations a year, but I live in a cheap townhouse and rent out the basement, and drive a modest car that’s paid off in cash. This way I’m still able to scuba dive and travel the world, but I’m also investing
right, you want to get out of debt and stay out. i do about 25% right now but I want to make it 50%. 15% in retirement and another 10 to 15% or so in a regular taxable account you have access to because you want your house to be so stable so that you can weather just about any financial hardship that comes your way. if you have a job making 75k and 150k in a taxable account and another 500k in retirement, you will never see debt again.
@@charlesg7926 cool. I paid off my car then a month later I wrecked it. Haven't looked back. By not having a car I have more money to invest and travel.
40%!! Nice!!!
@@erikhopkins9488 I wish I can do more but the govt only lets you put $6K in th roth and my job only allows me to do 30% in 401K. Probably more but its around there.
Investments are the roots of financial security; the deeper they grow, the stronger your future will be."
The deeper your investment roots, the stronger your financial security will be in the future.
Exactly! With my adviser, I’ve cultivated deep investment roots, strengthening my financial security for the future.
My CFA NICOLE ANASTASIA PLUMLEE a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further.
An Actual financial question? Not about bachelorette parties or deadbeat relatives ? Nice
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. A trader made over $350k in this recession influenced market.
Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are alot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.
Please who is the consultant that assist you with your investment and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with this person
My advisor is “ Sophia Maurine Lanting’ highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversity and is considered an expert in the field. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market..
I am going to look her up right away on web, I have about $220k i want to start with, might be small but it's better than nothing though. Since the 08 crash is playing out again.
Investing in Roth IRA can be a good choice. I have been managing my portfolio myself, When I withdraw from my Roth IRA in retirement, I won’t have to pay tax on it, which will help me keep more of my hard-earned money.
bet you didn't do that without a financial advisor. I’m also closing in on retirement and I have benefitted much from using a financial advisor.
@@DanielPanuzi Haha. I definitely didn't pull that in myself. I knew next to nothing in finance. A good financial advisor really does make a lot of difference.
@@DanielPanuzi My partner recently hinted on going same direction. who is your adviser please, if you don’t mind me asking?
@@Angelavaldess Sure, the likes of the popular lady Alicia Estela Cabouli does a good job. Just look up the name, you’d find details on the web to set up an appointment as she offers free consultations from first timers like yourself.
@@DanielPanuzi Thank you for this tip. it was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her résumé
Its nice hearing from normal income callers and not "I make 150k a year and just dont know how to get outta debt"
$150 is pretty normal. An income of $75k is only the 63rd percentile, so with dual incomes that's just barely above average.
19 years old, doing what Dave recommends... Match & Roth IRA. Stoked to see what I'll have after taxes. 🙌🏼
Despite my best attempts to save money, contribute to early retirement, and become financially independent, the economy has sucked out a large portion of my assets since the epidemic. I want to know if I should continue to diversify my investments or if I should look into other industries during these erratic times.
You should look at stocks , they look to be the biggest beneficiaries of AI and Data centers , also DCAing into a good ETF too ...Prioritize patience and a long-term perspective most importantly consider financial advisory for informed buying and selling decisions.
I agree. Exactly why I now work with one. A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their emotions, no offense. I remember some years back, during the covid-outbreak, I needed a good boost to stay afloat, hence researched for advisors and thankfully came across one with grit. As of today, my cash reserve has yielded from $350k to nearly $1m
i'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisors online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation?
"Laurelyn Gross Pohlmeier," a well-known authority in this field. I would recommend looking into her credentials more because she has a great deal of expertise and is a great resource for anybody looking for advice on how to navigate the financial market.
Thank you for the lead. I searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
This lady is awesome!! She has studied and learned well. This couple will be millionaires. They aren't falling for financial scammers like those mentioned in the comments. Just keep following Dave and they'll do great!!
As a newbie about to invest, you must have these four things in mind
1. Have a long term mindset.
2. Be willing to take risk.
3. Be careful on money usage, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending.
4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with a financial advise like Alex Gomez..
How can one start,most times people don't know where to start when it comes to crypto.
But it would be great if you can provide proper guidance on steps to follow please
As a beginner investor, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable. Myself, I’m guided by Alex Gomez. A widely known crypto consultant
Please how can I get in touch with this Alex Gomez ? I really need to give him a try
This is he’s telegrams user name
@AlexRcoin THAT IS THE USER NAME

My biggest mistake at a debt free 30 year old was not investing ANY in retirement. Great for her!
Now this is a great video. Perfectly lists out a game plan on how to invest the first 15% of your gross income.
Im living in Europe and don’t understand anything 😢. But I’m really glad they make people in USA financially stable
My portfolio for the past 30 years has always been self managed and I own 3 shares of Berkshire Hathaway Class A stock (BRK:A) which I bought in at about $17,000 during the mid 90s, I'm currently liquidating some of these positions to incoporate new Gen. Stocks, but am I better off re-investing into Gold as it seems stocks are a little too unstable right now.
DCAing amongst various assets is a good strategy and can help reduce the impact of market volatility and thus a good strategy if you are looking to compound . However it is important to consider financial advisory when investing .
Agreed! this is why I work with one. My $520k portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% rise from early last year to date. I and my advisor are working on more figures for this year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.
This is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfoIlo allocation
"Laurelyn Gross Pohlmeier," a well-known authority in this field. I would recommend looking into her credentials more because she has a great deal of expertise and is a great resource for anybody looking for advice on how to navigate the financial market.
5:47 I would do way higher if you can.
I earn less than the caller and I invest 20%-22% into retirement + I live off what I made 3 years ago. I set it up so EVERYTHING since: raises bonuses etc go into a regular brokerage for a house.
To accelerate the home I also picked up a part time job, all of that also goes into the brokerage.
Then when I realized I wanted more fun money I picked up Uber and use that to fund my stupidity.
Depends where you live too, average rent in my area is 3.4k and average home cost is 1.9 million. So I need all the cash I can get.
But she is doing an amazing! Always do Roth + matches! Goal is to maximize your Roth IRA and Roth 401k!
In light of the current volatility of the stock market, I believe investors should be concentrating on undervalued companies. Currently, 35% of my $270k portfolio is made up of once highly regarded stocks that are now falling, and I'm at a loss for where to turn from this devastation.
I believe the safest approach is to diversify investments. They can mitigate the effects of a market meltdown by diversifying their investments across asset classes such as bonds, real estate, and international stocks. It is important to seek the advice of an expert.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
Just keep holding, you only lose money when you sell. It will go back up.
@@samodehThey’re bots.
Like warren buffet said when 2008 crash happened
He said he made no losses he only loses when he books those losses but if you ride the wave itll go back up
Would it be silly to only have investment in the S&P 500 and to keep putting all your money invested into that? If you can’t tell, I’m risk averse.
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
Having an investment advisor is the best approach to the market right now. I was going solo without much success until my wife introduced me to an advisor. I've achieved over 80% capital growth this year, excluding dividends.
Could you recommend who you work with? I really could use some help at this moment please.
My CFA Lauren Camille Brown a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further.
Thank you for this amazing tip. I just looked the name up and wrote her.
There's no too much in investing. I run a successful restaurant and I make up to 700k a year in profit. I've started investing in the stock market and this video really helped elucidate some things. I want to diversify to digital currencies but I'm not sure how to go about it. Any recommendations?
Wow, that's a cash cow. Congrats. I had some difficulties two years ago when I wanted to invest some money in the digital cryptocurrencies, but I started with a CFP and investment just feels really easy since then and I've also made a lot of profit.
I agree. I work with a CFP who has a good understanding of both the digital market and stock market. These days experts who have an all-round understanding are in short supply. This last quarter alone I've already made more than 150k in net profit.
I've been considering getting one, but haven't been proactive about it. Can you recommend your advisor? I could really use some assistance.
Marissa Lynn Babula is the advisor I use. And her performance has been consistently impressive for me and my other friends she manages portfolios for. You could look her up yourself if you're interested in reaching her.
Thanks a lot for the recommendation. I'll send her an email and I hope I'm able to connect with her.
I also have a question - should I do 15% in my retirement or 5% in the retirement to max my company match & put the other 10% in a mutual fund that is accessible if I need it to create a down payment for a house?
I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Suzanne.
I'm surprised that this name is being mentioned here, I stumbled upon one of her clients testimonies on CNBC news last week...

I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking of putting the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying it's ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $200k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point.
@sallym.chesser7072 It all depends on how long you're willing to hold for, stocks might likely tank further, but making serious gains in this downtrend wouldn't be a problem if you're a pro.
@sallym.chesser7072 Hi, please who is the expert assisting you and how do I reach out to them?
@sallym.chesser7072 Thanks, I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials. I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.
Is that 15 percent before or after taxes?
I genuinely mean it when I express my stress and concern regarding the market crash and high inflation, particularly in relation to my retirement. I have been experiencing losses for quite some time, and while some may argue that crises can present opportunities, I am feeling overwhelmed. However, I understand that investing is a long-term endeavor, and it is crucial to maintain focus on the bigger picture and the long run.
It's unfortunate most people don't have such information. I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of information can be a big hurdle. I've been making more than $760k by just investing through an advisor, and I don't have to do much work. Doesn't matter if the economy is misbehaving; great wealth managers will always make returns.
how do I get in touch with this consultant that assist?
STEPHANIE KOPP MEEKS, that's whom i work with look her up and thank me later
Thanks for the info . Found her website and it really impressive
Unless you invest individual stocks, you're lying. Anyone invested for a 'few' years, if began anywhere from 2020-2022, and invested in basically any sp market fund, you would have returns higher than 10%. Goofys always make up random scenarios like we all don't use the same markets.
Love it when you break things down like this

I recently viewed an impressive video that prompted me to reflect on my experience with a financial adviser recommended by a colleague. I started investing with less than $100,000, and within just two months, my portfolio grew to $234,800. I reinvested a significant portion of my profits, which has led to consistent earnings over the past year. Recently, I also purchased my second home at the beginning of summer.
Hi, I’ve had to explore additional sources of income after being retrenched, and managing my trading and investments is challenging with a new baby at home. I'm wondering if I should take a break from the market to focus on other priorities or try to engage whenever I have free time. Is trading best approached as a continuous process, or is it wise to step back for a while? Thank you!

I need help. How do I calculate 15% is it monthly income or yearly? Need help
Dave I always want to ask this but why not Match, HSA, Roth, Traditional with the self-discipline of never using HSA funds for health care until retirement? This is how I do my 15%.
Except my HSA has been a huge blessing to pay for health expenses, too. It’s a very versatile account. Pro- HSA!
Company matches are great BUT it is best to convert those after you get them. My company contributes to our match every month. Every month, I call our 401k manager and tell them to convert that to a Roth 401k contribution. Every month I go through the acknowledgement that I understand it will be taxable. My thinking is that it is easier to chop down/convert the Traditional to Roth early than let it grow and have to pay much more tax later.
I am in a union and am given a retirement contribution whether or not I contribute. So there is not matching, technically. So is Roth better or do I treat the free money as if it's match. Personally I want to do roth and forget about the union retirement until I actually retire and just be surprised at how much is in there
Is it 15% before or after income taxes etc? Because in germany that’s a biiig difference
Pay attention to anyone who immediately diverts you to financial advisors aka “smartvestor pros” rather than just pointing you to some books to get financially literate FIRST. I dont think its necessarily BAD to use a helper for investing. BUT, you should at the very least be able to speak the language and understand the impact that the fees from a helper is going to affect your bottom line after 20-30 yrs. Spoiler, its not insignificant .
Dave always tells people to only invest in things they understand and says you should tell your pro what to do, not the other way around.
Welcome to generic financial advice for idiots 101 invest your money, save, put it in a Roth it's all platitudes for people who make 8k a month and blow it all.
Love this kind of videos! Super informative 👏💪
Yes very practical
Interesting video I'm in my 50s and I'm more interested in investments that could set me up for retirement , I mean I've heard of people that netted hundreds of thousands during these crash, I listened to someone on a podcast who earned over $650K in less than a year, what's the strategy behind such returns?
You're not doing anything wrong, you just don't have the required skillset to profit off a down market, folks that are making profit in this market are pros and experts with in-depth knowledge and skillset.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
This sounds great. Is there a way I could connect with your advisor or any other whom you think is very good? I'll appreciate.
Credits goes to " Sonya lee Mitchell" one of the finest portfolio managers in the field. She's widely recognized; you should take a look at her work.
I'm set to make $600,000 this year, and my net worth is north of seven figures, but I'm really worried. My portfolio has only grown 10% in the last five years, and I feel stuck. I desperately need to revamp my investments. Any advice on what to do with my money would be greatly appreciated.
This is what people that handle their portfolio themselves go through. I will advice you get yourself some professional advisor to help you make better portfolio decisions.
I agree, investing with the help of an advisor set me up for life with about $1.6m currently in stock portfolio. I max out my 401k and have few properties. I worked hard as a language tutor for 32 years, and my salary was just over 80k annually. It all boils down to consistent regular investing to minimize risks and maximize growth.
@@rrandd0 I'm glad I found this conversation. I just started earning six figures and need investment help. Can you share how to contact your advisor?

I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations since everyone's situation varies, but I've worked with "Melissa Elise Robinson" for years and highly recommend her. See if she meets your criteria.
A Financial Planner told me Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. How can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow my retirement savings to about $3M over time?
Nobody knows anything, you need to create your own process, manage risk and stick to the plan, through thick or thin or you can just seek the help of a financial advisor.
Having an investment adviser is the best way to go about the stock market right now, especially for near retirees, I've been in touch with a coach for a while now mostly and I made over $800K within a short time
How can I reach this adviser of yours? because I'm seeking for a more effective investment approach on my savings
My financial consultant is *Sharon Louise Count* whom I reached out to after finding her on a CNBC interview where she was the guest speaker. She's provided entry and exit points for the stocks I primarily focus o
Thanks, I just googled her full name and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a call.
I invest 25% of my income in the stock market at the start of each month and hold for at least 5 years. Recently, I've faced significant losses of about $150K. What can I do?
Look for stocks that have paid steady, increasing dividends for years (or decades), and have not cut their dividends even during recessions. which may reduce your dividend gains or income, speaking to a certified market strategist can help with pointers
my partner’s been considering going the same route, could you share more info please on the advisor that guided you to such impressive gains
Wow, her track record looks really good from what I found online.i just searched her name and messaged her and I also scheduled a call with her
@ScottStrawFucking spam bot
First of all do not pick individual stocks. Thats absolute speculation and it comes with extreme risk. My philosophy on investing is this. Follow the retirement fund approach. If you have 30 years from retirement then for every dollar invested around 70 should be in index funds (S and P) and 10 percent in Bond and other 20 percent high risk stocks and as you get closer to retirement move most a lot of the stock to bond and treasury bills and keep some amount for index funds
I watch this video over and over. So much information in this video - thank you for this.

Thank you for the great information!
So the 15% includes the 401k and IRAs? This whole time I assumed those were considered separate and that I should allocate 15% towards non retirement investments.
Completely reverse. 15% of gross household income set aside in retirement funds.
If I have a 401k with a 3% match, should I only be contributing 3% as well?
Then max out a Roth IRA?
And the downside of some 401(k)'s . . . not all employers cover the fees. My 401(k) is 1/4 match up to 1% and it deducts 1.5% per year off the top of the corpus. It's a killer. My mutual funds in my Roth (same funds) outperform my 401(k) every year -- even including the match.
What is a roth 401k I'm from Australia is it like super annuation for retirement
Sort of. Roth in US is taxed on front end opposed to deferring tax at withdrawal. I work at BHP in US where we also get an employer funded account of 8.25% to align to your superannuation benefit
Careful with those "high-growth mutual funds" as they can have exorbitant expense ratios, sales loads, commissions, etc. I'd strongly suggest putting everything into a low-cost index fund tracking the S&P500. No fees, no nothing, best rate if return. The financial planning industry may very well be the most treacherous for those who aren't well-versed in it.
Thats why I do. 100% VTSAX
@@johnyang1420 same. My VTSAX averages a better return than my 401k
What about FNILX through Fidelity?
@@Jfresh55 I believe that is Fidelity’s version of VTSAX. It should be equivalent. Lower fees as well. Can’t go wrong with either
@@Jfresh55 That's equally good. Fidelity has some more good options as well.
I’m excited, Just started watching Dave Ramsey today! I never even heard of a 403b before
Got 23% out of S&P 500 and MARA
How did that work out for u in 2023
@@georgeslupski5987he is dead
so if I have a 401k that matches and a roth, how do invest the 15% between those two? Just a little confused
You have to examine the funds offered in your 401k. If they are acceptable, you can just max out the 401k contribution. That is $22,500 for 2023. For a lot of people, that is enough to meet their 15% goal. If you are over 50, you can contribute another $7,500, for a total of $30,000 per year. 401k plans generally offer a set of funds based on your retirement date. They invest in riskier stocks early on and as they get closer to retirement, they become more and more conservative. Some 401ks also allow you to select individual stocks (typically ETFs).
An IRA gives you total control over which funds are used. But, you can only invest $6,500 per year ($7,500 if you are over 50).
So, contribute to your 401k at least enough to get the match. That is an immediate 100% return on your money. Then evaluate your 401k and IRA. If you like the offerings in your 401k, fill that up first. If you still haven't reached 15%, put whatever else it takes to get to 15% into your IRA.
If you aren't thrilled with your 401k offerings, plan to fill your IRA first and then whatever else it takes to get to 15% goes into your 401k.
Dumb question(?) So my company with their own money, contributes 3% of my paycheck into a 401k. They then match another 5% and of course I do the full 5% match. So the 5 + 5 + 3 would be 13% of the 15% dave would recommend. Is it recommened to do the remainding 2% into a roth?
Dave has said in other videos to not count the employer match in your 15% calculation. It is 15% of YOUR gross income. Anything the employer provides is icing on the cake.
Make sure you participate in the employer plan at least enough to get the match. Then decide whether to use your IRA or to continue with the 401k.
An IRA gives you total control over the money, but has a $7k annual contribution limit.
401k or 403b has a $23.5k annual limit, but you generally have to choose from a set group of plans.
IRAs, 401ks and 403bs all come in Traditional or Roth. For instance, you can have part of your contribution go to a Traditional 401k and the rest go to a Roth 401k. You can have both a Traditional IRA and a Roth IRA. You can even have several of each.
Help!!: correct if Im wrong. All of Ramsey math is based on the idea that stocks will increase value over time right?? If the prices go down when the person is going to retire, then she may even lose money, right??
I understand since always, stocks prices have been on the rise. But this plan could fail completely. No??
He advocates investing in mutual funds, where your money is spread across a sector of stocks. These funds use different criteria to select the stocks that are included in the fund. In general you can expect the price of the stocks to go up. Stock prices can AND DO go down, sometimes, but if given enough time, generally rise. If a given stock fails, the fund replaces it with a different stock. Based on the selection criteria, the stocks in a fund can change even through a given stock i doing well. Over time, you will see stocks and the funds that hold them, go up in price.
If a mutual fund fails, something went terribly wrong. If you buy into a fund like the S&P500, you are spread across the top 500 companies in America. The chances of that fund failing are virtually zero. They represent "the Market" that the talking heads are always talking about. In 2020 and 2008, they did drop dramatically and took a while to recover. But to a savvy investor with cash ready to go, those events are huge opportunities to buy in at low, low prices.
There are stock equivalents to mutual funds, called Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). For instance, you can go to Vanguard and buy into their Admiral Class S&P 500 mutual fund or you can buy VOO on the stock exchange, and it is almost the exact same thing. Mos mutual funds have an ETF equivalent, now.
Set up a plan to buy into the market at regular intervals (e.g. each payday). Sometimes you will be buying high, sometimes you will be buying low. This is called Dollar Cost Averaging.

Also, the new Secure Act 2.0 allows employers to match into the Roth.... icing on the cake.
If my spouses job does 7 percent match plus a 10 percent profit sharing, does that cover the 15 percent? My spouse also does the 7 percent for a total of 24 percent yearly.
Dave has said in the past to not include any contribution from the employer. It is great that you are getting that from his employer, but you are actually only contributing 7%, so you should kick in another 8%. There is no guarantee the company makes a profit, so you definitely should not depend on that. If you get it, great, but if you don't, you are still in good shape.
roth is definitely safe but all the math I see is max contributions you contribute 250k which is over 40-45 years it only turns to 1mil so its a 4x profit with no tax, ive been tripling my money every 2 years just from investing in the biggest most established companies in the world and some in the index which leaves me with alot more money to play with for more profit and learn things but my entire life is work and investing 16 hours a day no wife no kids no family so probably not a life most people want to live to ensure the risk pays off but ive had it all before been rich and lost it and family lost it had wife lost it and im happier then ever now
That where I disagree with people. Always contribute the percentage that is matched. You’re losing money if you don’t.
How does one contribute more than the allowable Roth IRA contributions per year? Dave talks about opening two separate individual ROTH IRAs in order to supply the remaining 15% which was $13,800. I was under the impression that the max allowable contributions is no more than $6500 for individuals under the age of 50. I’m new to investing and hope someone can clarify here.
The caller is talking about 15% of their combined income. Each person can contribute to Roth IRA.
Btw the limit increased to $7000 in 2024.
Btw2, if you’re married, both can contribute up to max even when only one of them has an income.
Good advice. The only two things I'd add are that index funds outperform mutual funds over time and they should be investing more than 15%, like 20% or more, especially since they're getting started in their 30s as opposed to 20s.
I like dividend paying stock funds. I also like the Traditional IRA because it lowers your current taxes.
@@deanalbertson7203 I'm a lazy investor, which is why I go for index funds.
You increase above 15% after you pay off your mortgage.

I just want to do something with the little extra money I have I don’t want to endup spending My Money instead of using it to make money?
Open an account with Vanguard. Set up automatic withdrawal from your bank account. Have them buy shares of VOO or VTI.
VTI is an index fund buying shares of the entire US stock market.
VOO is an index fund that buys stock in the companies that make up the S&P500 (the 500 biggest companies in VTI).
Either one is a good choice.
Can anyone tell me why it’s 15% vs a different number while in conjunction with paying off your house when you’re in baby steps 4-6? I know especially in your 20’s and 30’s, the value of each dollar invested is worth so much more than in your later years so why not invest 20% or more while paying down the house on a 15 year to ensure better investment growth?
Dave usually says "at least 15%"... Which makes sense. I invest about 15 of fulltime paycheck, and invest 100% of any side jobs I pick up on weekends.
@@JohnSmith-zl2ny no. Dave always says "15%, not 10%, not 17%, 15%".
Invest 15% and throw everything above that at your mortgage until it’s paid off. Once mortgage is gone you can invest whatever you please
From Dave's 30 years of teaching and from his real research, an average 15% is just nice from step 4,5 and 6..You can do more if you could. Just imagine excess from your income after deduct all your expenses, pay to your mortgage..Dave's intention is for us to be debt free quickly and happily and invest for our future and change our family tree.
If you follow the baby steps and stay the course, you live a lifestyle where investing 15% of your gross income will provide enough money for the way you live in retirement. If you retire and start jet-setting all over the world and blowing cash on vacations (in other words, change your spending habits), 15% might not be enough.
Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money.

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’m 26. My net worth is embarrassingly just under 20k. I do 17% for my company 401k which includes a 6% match. Plus $500 a month for my Roth
Hey, at least it's not negative. I'm 26 too and my net worth is 23k. I feel your pain but it's just onwards and upwards. That's my liquid net worth. I don't really count assets like cars, jewelry, etc cause it doesn't seem wise counting those things in.

Do I NEED to be working for a company that will help me with this or is there an alternative I can strive for in a solo manner?
PS. I'm a bit dumb in terms of economics, I'm learning all of this rather late in life.
Many thanks in advance 🙏
You should open an account with an investment company, bank or brokerage (Vanguard or Fidelity or ETrade or ScottTrade or a similar company). Also set up a Roth IRA with them.
15% of $60k is $9000. The yearly contribution limit to an IRA is $7000. So you can only put $7000 in your Roth IRA. The other $2000 has to go into your regular account.
If you open your accounts with Fidelity or Vanguard, you can put your money in mutual funds. Vanguard has been an industry leader with low fee mutual funds. They will also enable you to buy stocks.
If you open your accounts with a brokerage company like ETrade, you can but something very similar to mutual funds, called Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). They mimic various mutual funds or stock indices.
But long answer short, you need to create a Roth IRA and a regular account, and max out the IRA ($7k) and put the rest in a regular account.
Seems to me she should already be investing 3% into her 401K even while hammering down their debt. Given the employer match of 3%, based on her annual income of $40,000, she's leaving $1,200 a year on the table that she could otherwise be investing in deferred compensation.
Following the baby steps, she should not invest in anything until she has the emergency fund, the debt is gone and she has 3-6 months of living expenses set aside in savings. Generally, this is accomplished in two years or less, so it is not the end of the world to not get the match. Dave's plan alters your mindset, how you think about money and wealth. That can be hard for anyone who likes to crunch the numbers. Another example is paying off a 3% mortgage when you can get an 8-10% return in the stock market.
@@damondiehl5637these are the comments that make me nuts. 8-10 percent in stock market?

I used to have a RothIRA through Edward jones. In 2021 I max it out at 6000… in 2022 I maxed it out at 12,000. In 2023 I had an emergency and had to withdraw 💯 %. When I withdrew it I only got back around 10,000! Does that mean the wrong investments were chosen by my financial advisor? Also when I withdrew it my financial advisor said i wasn’t going to be taxed on it because the funds I withdrew were 100% my own contribution which means it was tax free…… well I just got a 1099-R and now the irs says I owe then just over 2000 because of the early withdrawal. Am I missing something here? Can someone help me understand it all!?
Your contributions to the IRA are supposed to be available for withdrawal at any time with no penalty. Any gain on your investments would be taxed and penalized because you are taking it out in less than 5 years and you are under 59.5. Beyond that, it's hard to say what is going on without more info. It is probably worth your while to have a tax professional look at it. Try the volunteer advisors first and work your way up to the hired professionals if necessary.
Should I match my employers contributions to the retirement plan? I believe its a 401k, but I'm not sure. I work for a nonprofit organization. They contribute 7% equivalent of my salary regardless if I contribute anything at all and then raises to 10% once the amount they contribute reaches like $15k or $20k don't quite remember the exact amount of when it switches. Back before I accepted the role I did the math and it ups to 10% like 2 and a half years after I was hired.
The other option being to start a Roth IRA and put the money into that instead of adding to my employer's contribution.
By the way, only 27 so that's why I think maybe having a bit more diverse retirement plan with my work and the Roth IRA, but I'm not sure if it would be better to just add to my work's retirement plan.
You can put away a lot more per year in a 401k ($23,000) than you can in an IRA ($7000). So don't limit yourself, if you can afford it. And, you want that company match. That is an instant 100% return on your money. And you can invest in both types of accounts. If you can max out your 401k and still have money to invest, switch to an IRA. If you STILL Have money after that, you can put money in your Health Savings Account (HSA). And if you STILL have money after that, use a regular brokerage account.
@@damondiehl5637 yeah but like I said, there is no company match. Just an automatic amount they put in regardless if I put anything in. They put in a set amount. I also went and looked more into it. Its not exactly a 401k. Its an annuity through an insurance brokerage that is like a mix of a 401k and a 403b. Also I only make like 56k per year before overtime and taxes(I make quite a bit of overtime) so no 23,000 not exactly possible.
That seems like a complicated investment vehicle, when there are lots of administrators offering their services. I have several accounts at Fidelity Net Benefits from different employers. I'm not wild about annuities nor insurance brokerages. I would maybe take whatever they give you and be grateful. Then I would recommend opening a Roth IRA and contribute as much as you can to it. 15% of 56k is $8,400, so that exceeds the annual limit, even if you are over 50, but you can't contribute that much, anyway. It's totally up to you to decide what you want to put in your IRA . If you open your Roth IRA with Vanguard or Fidelity, you can buy their mutual funds or you can buy stocks. Vanguard was the leader in low fee index funds, but Fidelity has pretty much caught up to them. They both have funds that mimic the S&P500. If you want to buy stocks, ETF stocks like VOO or QQQ or SCHD are essentially the same thing as the index funds. Plug contributions into your budget and set up automatic payments so you keep plugging money into the account. Then sit back and let it grow. It will seem very slow at first. Your first 100k is 25% of the way to a million. It takes 8 or 10 years to get that first 100k, but each 100K after that comes faster and faster, because of the power of compounding. The jump from 900k to a million is only a year or two. time and rate of return are the big factors.
If you want to learn more about the buy-it-and-forget-it approach, watch some videos of Warren Buffet or Jack Bogle (founder of Vanguard). Buying into these funds and just letting it be, through the ups and downs has proven to be a winning strategy.
@@damondiehl5637 yeah I mean the max amount would kind of be hard to do, after state and federal taxes and benefit deductions my take home pay is like $3400 per month. Luckily, I've got 0 debt and a 2016 truck that is completely owned. My housing is pricy, but I didn't have a lot of options that weren't in the mexican cartel gangland(we call it the warzone in Albuquerque), so I just picked what I could get that was safe. I only had a week to find housing before moving.
For me I was thinking setting up automatic payments of $200 per month into a Roth IRA, and have the dividends reinvest, plus throw my entire tax return in it every year and because I'm only 27 years old that would be a little cushion once I "retire" in the event something comes up before I pass away and if not just pass my Roth IRA down to my kids. We have a multigenerational family ranch, about when I'm in my mid to late 40s, I'll be leaving the workforce to run that, but luckily with that it has very good consistent income on top of the cattle we raise on it.
@@walterp1028 That sounds like a good plan. I think I would take the employer contribution and be glad for it, but not put any of my own money into it. Dave has never said a positive thing about annuities and frankly I've never read anything about them that appealed to me. Focus on the Roth IRA and as you said, turn on DRIP so the dividends are reinvested.
I’m new to all this. But how do you invest 15 percent when Roth IRA has a $7000 contribution limit every year
If you make $47,000 or less, you can meet your 15% goal with just an IRA.
But if you make that much, you probably have a 401k or 403b or some other retirement savings plan offered by your employer.
If you make more than $47k and don't have a retirement plan from your employer, you will have to invest via some other non-retirement account, such as a high yield savings account, CDs, or a regular brokerage account.
Is this 15% of your income AFTER you have sacrificed salary and employer matches it? For example, I sacrifice 6% of my salary tax free and employer matches it, do I then invest another 15% of take home? Or do I invest 9% of take home ?
15% of your household gross income. If your gross salary is $70k and your wife's is $30k, you have a gross income of $100k. Therefore you should contribute at least $15k toward retirement. Do not consider the employer match as part of that figure. That is above and beyond what you contribute.
What did he say? Good growth stock mutual funds with a what? Smart vester pro? What is that
...advisors within his network...
How does pensions contributions impact the 15%
Amazing advice
any word on HSAs? Should those be considered part of 15%. they are for health but I know you can use them later on for non medical. Gracias
It’s a great vehicle to save so do it if you can.
But you cannot use it to pay for non-medical expenses or other approved expenses. It has a hefty penalty worse than 401k.
I wish for a south African Dav Ramsey
What should you do if you make too much for the Roth IRA and are above the income limit.
In that case you would look in to what's called a " back door roth "
Dave mentions Match beats Roth and Roth beats Traditional. But does a Non matching 401k beats a Roth IRA? Also where does a annuity, pension and social security fit into this equation?
No. Matching beats roth but Roth beats traditional 401k.
I just started a federal job. Was going to adjust tsp up to 15% with first check i saw the gov is already taking 4.4% for my pension. I suppose I invest 11% into tsp
Anything that matches is an instant 100% return on your money.
Keep in mind that 401k and IRA are just different types of accounts. In and of themself, one is not better than the other. You can contribute more money each year into a 401k. There are contribution limits for each type of account (401k = $22,500 IRA = %6,500). The real difference is Roth versus Traditional.
Contributions to a Roth account (401k or IRA) cannot be deducted at tax time each year. But all the money comes out tax-free.
Contributions to a Traditional account (401k or IRA) are deducted from gross income at tax time, but everything that comes out in retirement is taxed.
Pensions are getting pretty rare. They are outside of the realm of IRA and 401k. A pension is money an employer pays you in retirement.
Social Security is also outside of the realm of IRAs and 401ks. That is money the government send you. How much they send depends on how much you have earned over your lifetime. The government measured the 35 highest earning year of your career. Whatever number that comes up to determines how much they pay out to you.
@@chief5981 15% is not a magic number. If you can afford to contribute more, you should do it.

There's so much I want to spread my investment VOO, VTI, VNQ how should I divide it?
I would go for 10% dividend paying ETFs if you have a retirement account. If you have a brokerage (taxable), 10% stocks. Those above will get eaten up by inflation.
If you invest in VTI and VOO, you are buying some of the same stocks in each fund.
VTI is the entire US stock market.
VOO is the S&P500, a subset of VTI.
VNQ is also a subset of VTI.

No, it means 15% of your gross income. There is no hidden trick, no one is trying to fool you.

If you invest it all in doge coin, it's probably not going to happen.
Awesome video!!!!!
As of yesterday i put 15% of my paycheck into a roth account with my current job but i was told from my boss that they don't match it should i still keep the Roth and keep it moving?
The only time I hear Dave tell people to do traditional is when they are in their late 50s/ early 60s. If that helps.
Sucks they don’t match but nice work
Yes. It's still a retirement account, with special tax rules. Your 401k allows you to contribute $22,500 per year. Why not take advantage of that?
You can only contribute $6500 into your IRA each year. Put money into your 401k and if you still have money to invest, put it in your IRA. That's $29,000 per year.
The other consideration is type of 401k and IRA. If you go Traditional, you can deduct the contributions at tax time. But everything is taxed as it comes out.
If you go with the Roth versions, you can't deduct your contributions, it everything comes out tax-free.
Do you want the tax break each year you work, or do you want it all to come out during retirement tax-free?
Thanks!!!
There are industries that never give people raises in their entire career. What a jerk!!
Question how is he and his wife investing in Roth if the most you can make is 240k combined
Please help. I was so excited to begin this and got gut punched because our income combined is 275k
What are our options?
There is no income limits for participation in 401ks. If your employer offers it, you can participate.
Income limits apply to IRAs.
