    It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time. if you struggle with this get a good advisor to assist you

    One key point not mentioned is MARKET CAP of a specific business sector. Some of my SAAS clients sold for 150 million dollars. They were getting about a 30 multiple. If a specific business is growing fast and has very little market share yet many times the buyers will pay a ton on the multiple for the potential growth they see in the market. Shark tank investors mention this about the size potential growth for a business relative to the current market cap and future market cap. Some market caps can be declining, stagnate, growing.

    To increase the value of a small business quickly, focus on improving its operations. Start by hiring key people to lead different areas like marketing and sales. Improve the marketing strategy to bring in more customers. Make sure your pricing is right to maximize profits. These changes can make a business more attractive to buyers and increase its value. For example, hiring a new CEO can improve leadership and boost profits.

Take that same first company worst 0 and implement systems, procedures and people... now you have a reliable company that increases the likelihood the revenue will be consistent and grow over time.

    The power is in compounding. I know a few independently wealthy people that have stayed independently wealthy. With Franchising and private equity, you aren't going to make a million on your first franchise or house or rental property. More likely, it will take 5-10 houses and more capital versus time with private equity and business as well as being able to franchise out the model.

    Very helpful & enlighting video !!!. But, since these are tough times for most of the people, a business owner should start from 1 business and as he grows in profit, he should diversify in other areas/fields. He can negotiate with other business owners and buy a percentage of their business or he can exchange a part of his business for a part of their business. There are many ways. Economy in the US & globally isn't going well, WW3 is about to start in the Middle East, so since we don't know who is going to be effected next, we need to prepare in all ways possible.

    Hey guys! Please help me decide on my plan for the next 5-10 years. I have two options:
    1) Continue working at my current company, where I earn a salary and see opportunities for improvement, but my income growth is limited to around $5-6k.
    2) Start working part-time at a small real estate development company, learn all the business processes, increase the company's revenue, and then become a developer myself in about 5 years, aiming for much higher earnings.
    Which path do you think is more promising and profitable in the long term? p.s. Alex Hormozi is the BEST

    If there's anybody who does this better, please let me know.
    There definitely is other mind blowing content out there to be sure. But I've never found a source with the volume, quality and consistency that this dude brings.
    Thanks Alex. My family and I really appreciate your generosity.
    We're not trying to win any school games, but your knowledge and willingness to share has literally put more food on our table. I'll probably never get to thank you in person, but I am super grateful.

      Considering your experience I think it’s time you did some videos of your own.
      Instead of giving you some economics classes I would rather suggest you watch time management (Rian Doris) and health channels, like Doctor Mike, Dr Mike Israetel, The Kneesovertoesguy and Bryan Johnson (about sleeping mostly).

    No way you can carry a mortgage, pay property tax, home insurance, pay for maintenance and repairs and make any profit charging $1k per month. That worked when you could buy a 3 bed 2 bath house for $100k to $$150k. Not anymore!

    Very insightful Alex thank you. But how does one come to buy these or acquire them for “$0”? Or even find opportunities to leverage myself into one of these ventures. Because I very much understand the business model but am not seeing how to slip my foot in the door. Would love to hear you feedback, thanks Alex.

    It always gets me when a wealthy person teaches... $0 money... uh, You may have to put a little money down, like $500,000. OR If you can save $75,000 a year... etc. Most teachers are not teaching for the little guys but are talking to people who already make a large amount of money.

    Glad to see someone mention the risk of real estate due to population decline. Most people think the global population is increasing. It's not (including in the USA). Real estate will take a huge hit because of this (among other things) in the not-too-distant future unless birth rates increase or we drastically change immigration policies.

    Accelerate value in a business??? How does massive leverage an acquired company is responsible for accelerate value or make it more.competitive? How about lease backs? I have been watching PE LBOs for decades as they use public pensions like weapons of economic mass destruction.
