Thank you
😊
When i worked in a hospital for a short period, 2 old guys (seperately) told me they wished they didn't slave away in a job they hated. I took that on board.
Save away in a job you love
Slightly related, in the sense that I'm thinking broadly of career and age and life experiences, I once heard somebody rhetorically ask, how many people on their deathbed had a last wish that they had completed their Excel spreadsheet?
@@Havana-man i love me a complex excell sheet, wake me up for that shit
Yes same I hear this alot from patients as an Occupational Therapist.
‘A salary is the drug they give you to forget about your dreams’
I thought that, and then I've been unemployed and I'm free now to do whatever I want.
Wait! A good salary was all i ever dreamt of! 😅
"Golden Handcuffs" I heard that statement get used when people get so comfortable with a certain jobs that they have "Lifestyle Creep." But then again the examples I was given showed people are in high debt and they had to go to high costs of living like San Francisco, and San Jose type examples desperate to make VC Salaries.

‘You buy stuff you don’t need with money you don’t have to impress people you don’t like’
If a good salary is a drug, I’m ready to get hooked.
Nischa's wisdom on a Sunday morning. It cannot get better than that! 💁🏻♀️
Great video. My grandparents, taught me (Gen X era) about the importance of diversifying income streams, often described as "having different eggs in different baskets." They suggested leveraging the concept of "Golden Handcuffs" to transition into entrepreneurship eventually. It's interesting to note that these teachings weren't passed down to generations following Gen X. The prevailing mindset among them tends to be "Work Hard, Play Later," underlining the importance of hard work because success isn't handed to you easily.
Nischa have you heard about adept-limited ?
So happy to see your channel still growing! You’ve helped me so much!
You were spot on and I know first hand the grip of the golden handcuff. It was hard to do but the best decision I ever made was to shed the golden handcuff and walk away. Thanks for your content. Have a great week Nischa. Larry, USA
Great wisdom! Thank you so much Nischa :)
I could listen to you all day long! Amazing advice, thank you! I'm 42 and finally doing what I should be doing with my salary because of videos like this.
Thank you for sharing these insights, valuable lessons and appreciated, 💚
Love these vids man
great advice! thanks nischa!
Thank you Nischa, very helpful
Great advice and the editing of this video is superb! Keeps it interesting and helps summarise what has been discussed!
So many videos out there but this one actually was interesting and well done!
I have to say your thumbnail for this video is one of the best I've seen on this platform. I'm in the process of starting my own channel, so I'm fascinated by attention-grabbing thumbnails. More power to you.
This was so well put together, and really eye opening as well. Currently focusing on developing a second income stream. It’s been tough but your videos really help. Thank you 🙏🏾
Thanks for these useful advices ☺️🙏🏼
Loved this video, I can totally relate to the golden handcuffs. Funnily enough, I'm halfway through reading "Top 5 Regrets of the Dying" at the moment. Thanks for sharing your insights, I definitely needed to hear it! Signed up for your masterclass, look forward to it!
This is all well and good when you have the freedom of choice. If your family is depending on you to earn as much as possible, then you dont have the luxury of choice. Great video, but something to consider.
You also made a choice to start a family perhaps before you considered if you was comfortable where you was
@@TheL184 wasn't aware you could choose to have parents
@@R0N1N98He probably thought you meant your kids, not parents
“Family is depending on me to earn as much as possible”?! Wtf, that sounds pretty toxic, what about: “family is depending on me to provide at least a roof food and education”?!
@ypey1 semantics. The more you earn, the less your family has to worry
People dont understand that the prices of things are never going back down. This inflation is deeper than we think. Those buying groceries are well aware that the real inflation is much over 10%. The increments dont match our income, yet certain investors still earn over $365,000 in stocks and assets. Wish I could accomplish that.
Very possible! especially at this moment. Profits can be made in many different ways, but such intricate transactions should only be handled by seasoned market professionals.
Some persons think inves'tin is all about buying stocks; I think going into the stock market without a good experience is a big risk, that's why I'm lucky to have seen someone like mr Brian.
Finding yourself a good broker is as same as finding a good wife, which you go less stress, you get just enough with so much little effort at things
I'm surprised that you just mentioned and recommend Mr Brian Nelson. I met him at a conference in 2018 and we have been working together ever since.
Any specific guide. I'm from Georgia how do I go about this? I think I'm interested how can I get in touch with Mr Brian Nelson
Great Video Nischa, I learn so much watching your videos, Thank You!!!
It's great to see insights on avoiding common financial pitfalls, especially for high earners. Diversifying income streams and having a fun budget are crucial for financial freedom and enjoying the journey! 💰
Great video giving good food for thought. The golden handcuffs are a necessity for most people having a family and other to care for. Later in life if possible it should be re-evaluated because it is so true.
A lot of wisdom in this video. Thank you.
The fun element budget I introduced last year to add a nice dimension to my spending
Fantastic video, point 6 and point 7 so so true love them
Your content has become so nice. You have become wise
Nice video Nischa, Keep growing
There are some really interesting and helpful principles discussed here. Earning over 100k puts you in the top 5percent of uk earners and people will understandably think it must be bliss and surely why would anyone want to deviate.
The business world is tricky. You cant compare someone in their 50s who has coined it to your situation. If you are privileged enough to have a 100k salary, the game has changed. You belong to the company, your job at that rate isn't safe and the next 5 to 10yrs is no way guaranteed in this day due to factors like international competition, technology, regulation, world events! So I agree, its important to invest and see another income stream. I also agree, there is more to life. If someone has worked hard snd achieved this level of income and has acted sensibly.....go and bloody enjoy it😂
Great video Nischa! You have a beautiful mind!
Love your Videos!
I needed this, thank you.
OMG...Golden handcuffs are so real! I'm wearing pair now.
Amazing and correct insight
Huge congrats on 1m subs Nischa! Hoping to grow my channel to your level one day. Thanks for this vid :)
Nischa, well done! Always informative.
Like your videos, very educative ❤
Hi Nischa, I love your videos - they keep in a money-mindful mindset! I was wondering if you could make a video for investing for teenagers or are there any books to recommend for teenagers to start the journey early?
Please more videos like this!
Good as always🎉
Very well thought and informative video. Learned so many new things, Keep it up
Cant wait for your investment masterclass
🙌 love your videos
She never disappoints when she makes points, and it is easy to understand. Great video once again
Nischa’s videos are always really inspiring to watch. Most people these days either as single or combined income have a 6 digit salary as gross income but after high tax been deducted from salary and if your in my position where 50% of your salary goes into mortgage and 30% into other finance installments and essential household bills, with remaining 20% goes towards groceries and just about 1 takeaway a week, it is difficult to think about savings towards investment. Cost of living crises I guess!
If you do have lots of disposable income, always worth investing in your kids (if you have/plan them) future; education funds, housing deposits, or even pensions, let compound interest do some heavy lifting for you. Just my 2 cents
I love your videos, have leant so much from all those advises. Thank you ! I wonder if you could you make a video about how to protect your asset and your company after the dead of sole director shareholder, who would be in charge and running the company, what happens to those investments in that company and what to do now to avoid the disaster whicj will end up of loosing everything ? It’s one of most important matters but don’t see many UA-camrs mentioned it on here. Many thanks .
...and you have the traction that gives credibilty to what you say. Well said Nischa.
Bro, i bought AMS91K in Feburary after your video. i'm up 479%.
Yeah course you are... 🙄
Number 2 really resonates with me. I didn’t use to have any money when I was younger. My parents didn’t have any money either so I was forced to start working at a young age for myself, saving up money to buy the things I wanted. Later, as an adult and working a real job, that mindset was still there. I tried to save as much money as possible, putting aside as much as possible to invest. Now at 43, I make 6 figure income but still try to spend as less as possible. Spending a lot of money on things I don’t need still feels wrong to me.
Some other mistakes is keeping up with the jones', what this means is depending on your neighbors, your spending tends to match them ie costs of holidays, kids camps, type of vehicle, etc.
I have subscribed to your channel
You have really nice contents 💯
Having a budget for fun things is great
I have been using the spending tracker given 'FREE' by nischa, and it has made my finances so easy.. I can't thank you enough, nischa cheers !
Nisha which is the best long term index fund to invest in? And your thoughts on S&P 500 index fund?
Golden handcuffs often come in share incentives that mature with free shares typically after 5 years when they can be moved into ISA without Capital gain. People often stay in jobs and maybe are underpaid because they are waiting on this.
Waiting for the golden parachute
@@ratsliveonnoevilstar1 that's another one! So many people I have known waiting to be made redundant in the next round of layoffs, to them have the monetary freedom to do the thing they want to do...
I buy shares for a period then cease for a period and save it myself. That way I don't feel tied in - I have break points where it's of no benefit to stay because nothing will mature.
What about investing in real estate ?. I think real estate is the safest investment if paid in cash. Plus you can do long-term or short-term and earn additional money. I'm thinking of investing my money in real estate and cashing out stocks. I don't feel comfortable holding my money there and I can purchase at least 2 properties and bring more cash flow from them.
So wise, love your videos! Keep up the good work.😊
What got me the most was the not spending on myself! I have made a handsome amount of money and bought an audi s5 this year because my last car was written off and i wanted a loan but then i realised i can loan myself the cash, so i did! And paid myself back, i just bought a new kitten and splurged on him to make him have the best home. But i agree, why have money if you can’t enjoy and this month i went fuck it and 70k because ive save for years lol lucky i can tax deduct some of the car but i am so thankful for your page and im so thankful to myself for breaking the poverty cycle in my family and can give to them as well. Trust me, spoil yourself because you could die tomoz and she’s right when it comes mentality, when h save hard, you don’t wanna spend it. Invest in stock market and yourself!
Woaw you're growing so fast WTF! 📈😲🤯👏🙌
When I subscribed to this channel, which was not a very long time ago, you only had 300k subscribers and now you have over a million, Wow🙆♂️👏
So well deserved though coz I fell in love with your content from the very first video I watched. It's easy to tell when someone is deliberately putting in effort to share something of value. Sending you well wishes from Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦💚
Having one income stream is too close to none. i will be borrowing this line from you Nischa. Another great video thank you!
Thank you for these great insights and guidance!!
Always stellar advice!
Blessed is the hand that giveth..
Nice work. I’ve been on the AMS91K train for a while, never sold as they are always building.
Nischa love your videos. Can you talk about the benefits of overpaying your mortgage and how to go about it ? Thanks
Nischa, if you had the same amount of money accumulated in your Index Fund as your remaining mortgage balance, would you pay off your mortgage or keep growing the compouding interest in the fund? Most people say keep investing if you're making more interest than your mortgage rate. However, podcasts like the Ramsey Show say pay off the mortgage quickly, because the stock market comes with risk. Thanks!
Hey, im trying to check out the business set up but it is saying I need to have a company?
You're so pretty!
Right now I am experiencing the golden handcuffs mistake, but I don't think it is completely my fault. Where as I work from home and I find it increasingly more difficult to build connections and opportunities. Finding a new position is very limited as I am out of sight, out of mind. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I’m going to marry this woman in my next life. Not only is she gorgeous, but she’ll also keep me from being broke.
“Having one source of income is too close to none” Word🙌
Thank god I am not a high income earner 🙏🏻🙏🏻
😑😑😑
Why wouldn’t you want to be?
@@TCINVESTINGJOURNEY444 cause then I won't make those mistakes
@PedroOliveira-ez2ni why are you scared???
Even low income people make mistakes.
Don't use excuses to stop you from creating opportunities!!!
Why can't people handle humor these days? 😂
Number 5 is one of my favorite. There is a book I've read "The Seven Spiritual laws of success" by Deepak Chopra it emphasizes the role of giving and how the universe returns even more of what we've given back to us, and I believe that is one secret most wealthy people have discovered and that's why they are into philanthropy.
Thanks again as always great points here!
It’s the accent, the colors and the smile.
Make a video on your educational journey would be an great content for the viewers who want to plan ahead
Hey Nischa, I was the person who got called into the office and walked out by security without an inkling of what was going on. I also did not have a plan, but now I have re-engineered my life and my journey. Thanks for sharing. I have started a new channel (very new, Frenchwood Motivational Creations) and would like to reuse some of your videos. Thoughts.
I have a lump sum i want to invest - should I just invest it all at once or should I dollar cost average it and invest a bit week by week until i've invested it all?
Do it weekly. Opportunities come regularly.
This has been studied retrospectively in academic papers. In the vast majority of times investing a lump sum in one go outperforms the dollar cost averaging technique
Thank you. I feel the same about giving away money or things. If you give, you will receive. The universe actually works like that.
Locked in
Depends on your finances . 1000$ in Solana is 4000 AMS91K if it goes to 50% of ath in 2024 thats a 600% gain. If it goes equal to ath . Its a 1200% gain.
Out of interest, for context, what was the highest base salary you earned before you decided to set up on your own?
I’ve been making 300-500 thousand a year, while being 23-26.
Made no investments, created no assets.
Now I am 34, making only around 150 k a year and I am making a very good use of all the money, investing in stock market, residential and commercial real estate.
No1. They look down on other People who don't have as much! They somehow think having Money makes them Superior!
When getting invited to wedding from a not so nice friend, reply "I am not free to attend your wedding this time, I will attend next time."
Most rich people stay rich by spending like the poor and investing without stopping then most poor people stay poor by spending like the rich yet not investing like the rich but impressing them
why am I even watching this, I'm broke as hell
The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) have screwed us last year by taking away the $1500 mid level tax exemption for earners $90k-120k aud. Income earners over $180k aud got barely taxed.The ATO also audited me on my side hussles on top. I have a quarterly PAYG tax summary bills til June 30,2024. Its case of the rich get richer and poor stay poorer. Oh and our oz govt just wanting their covid money back
Are you joking? Income earners over $180k pay 47% tax after the Medicare levy. They literally pay basically all of the tax in the country while lower income earners get the best social benefits of any country in the world….
Is this a joke? I know people in my family who pay over a million in taxes in Australia a year it literally is half your income idk what you’re talking about
@@lightlyfriedfishfillets8117 top income earners in Sydney can barely make ends meet, we pay 47% tax rates then 12% mandatory retirement so you get in your hand 40% of what you earn before you pay a single bill. Then our mortgages are variable rate so you can’t even lock in your mortgage you just have the cost keep changing every time the reserve bank puts interest rates up. The whole thing sucks.
Despite having encountered numerous videos of this nature, I find myself grappling with a peculiar lack of motivation to pursue my personal aspirations and join the ranks of high-income earners.
UK Banks:
NatWest - 6.17% saver (£150/month limit + Top Ups)
Barclays - 5% blue rewards saver (Unlimited/month - Paid Account required, but offset if 2 Active DD's from this account)
Santander - 7% saver (£200/month - Paid Account required)
Risk free investing with a solid return. You're welcome.
Your identity is not your job. Save, invest and retire ASAP. Preferably in your 40's or 50's.
Save, invest and relax in an easier job. The younger you start, the better
22 years in golden handcuffs. I was made redundant finally, and now I’m skint but fighting not to get back on that corporate treadmill.
I’m genuinely curious- how are you skint after 22 years in golden handcuffs?
I make 450k per year and I’m so sick of my profession. I’m sick of everything about it and look forward to any time off. My handcuffs seem permanent.
What investments can you make to see the earliest possible return instead of having to wait 30 years? Can't really enjoy money when you're 70+ and barely getting around on a walker 😅
Most high earners have a life that is about a bit more than just salaries.... Leaving all family and friends behind just to grow your money through profitable investment is knowledge.🇺🇲🇺🇲
i love bollywood movies as a kid...
I can spend money for my love ones, but just cannot allow to spend anything for myself.
