    I feel like I need that fund type part written down, especially the naming part.
    Growth & Income = Large Cap/ Blue Chip = Large Companies, Calmest volatility, slower than market.
    Growth Fund = Mid Cap Fund = like S&P 500, in the middle, follows the market.
    Aggressive Growth Fund = Small Cap / Emerging Market = Small companies, high volatility.
    International / Global Fund = = worst performer, lower growth, hedges against American recession.

    I believed in Saving like Joseph did. The 7 years of plenty vs. the 7 years of famine. he saved the corn, the food, for a rainy day, then profited from it by giving it to the starving Egyptians for they land, animals and labor, so everyone survived during the famine years. A win/win situation.
    Then here's the real winner. He let them live on their own land, which really had become his land, ( the Government's in this case, run by Joseph) and had them pay for the seed which was given to them to plant and grow food. Then here's the real winner: 1/5th of the profits, or food/corn was to be given to the government/Pharoah, perpetually.
    Hey, you can't beat that. I don't know whether Joseph gave them new seed every season, or whether they collected the seed from the new crop and replanted it. I think the latter, or both. Because, where does the seed come from? its obvious. And the Bible says, they did not gripe about that. They were happy, because they were able to live. And I'm sure, the entrepreneurs among them became creative and used the 4/5 corn (main balance), sold some, maybe bought new land and the corn derived from it was probably free and clear of 1/5th taxation. But if that corn grew from the land owned by the government, the government got 1/5th. A simple and powerful wealth system, taught in the Genesis. The Bible.

    I'm a multimillionaire- not because I make millions of dollars a year selling books and classes, but because I saved and invested wisely. I buy good, low cost index funds and ETFs for the long term.
    The odds's that the advisers who pay Dave a fee for his endorsement will beat the market long term IN THE FUTURE are slim (it's easy to pick winner's in hind sight). Dave, of course, has a vested interest in promoting those high cost advisers. I have no such conflicting interest.
    Those expenses are not trivial. Long term, those fees and higher expense ratios will cost you tens of thousands of dollars, not "5 bucks" as Dave implies.

    Thanks Dave, recently came across your channel and a new subscriber. I appreciate your common sense, realistic, and honest approach. You are so right, when it comes to growing wealth, there are no "quick and sexy" fixes. It is a matter of focus on investing whatever you can afford. I have considered myself "the tortoise" since I was 20 and all my life I have sacrificed the new cars and the fancy houses and clothes and if all goes as planned, I should be able to walk away from full time employment in three years at the age of 50. For all of you young people out there reading this, please listen to Dave, time is on your side and although I have done ok, if I could go back in time, it would be Dave's teaching all the way. Stop talking about it and do it.

    The idea of investing a significant sum of money may be both thrilling and intimidating. There is potential for considerable wealth increase with the correct strategy. How can one take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings/net-worth to about $3M over time?

    When I retired in 2005 I made the mistake of letting a friend who is a licensed investment adviser take care of my investments. He sounded just like Dave here "You need to diversify!" I trusted him to do the right thing, big mistake. Within 5 years 25% of my 401k was gone. Since then I've put my money in a indexed mutual fund and not lost a dime. I guess the old saying I'm more concerned with the return of my money then the return on my money really is the most important thing to me...
