      Hi Humphrey,
      I am a huge fan! It seems like the markets are getting choppy and whipsawed.
      I recently found an investing strategy that works for me and that’s passively allocating to Minimum Volatility and Low volatility ETFs each month. I think it would be a great learning opportunity for your audience to see the benefits of investing in Low Vol ETFs and Stocks passively each month.
      Thanks.
      Piroz

    I think the point about disconnecting time and money is a bit over optimistic. Most people who start a successful business will do this later in life after they have gained the necessary experience trough a salaried job. Jumping out of the rat race at age 21 to start a drop shipping or E-commerce company will leave 95% of people who try this worse off.

    This is great. Nearly perfect for every young person to watch. A little more focus on the reasons you might want to get to $100k. I want to worry less, I want to be able to help family, I want to travel more, I want to donate more to Doctors Without Borders, I want a $20k yurt at Coachella. Young people rarely know what they want. In my 20s someone helped me with a few goals. It unleashed the power to making the first 100k. I was lucky for that.

    Along with Real Estate Agents, if someone does not want to be a realtor but enjoys the real estate world and people they should look into becoming a loan originator. Similar in the sense that you work on commission and you can go a number of ways with your career ranging from opening your own branch/broker and building a team to working with your own clients by yourself for a brokerage or mortgage company. You can even transfer into becoming a retirement specialist. All you need is to pass a national test along with some pre-req training (only 20 hours) and find a sponsoring company and you are good to go!

    Working as a service advisor in a car dealership is a great way to bypass high salary jobs that have requirements like bachelors. In particular, domestic dealers like Dodge and Chevrolet. The job sucks, but get good at it, and you can make nearly 30k a month doing it. I personally have been doing it for only 2 and a half years and am clearing over 10k at this point at a Dodge dealership. One coworker made 15k last month, and the other made 27k. It's completely performance based, but that's what being an entrepreneur is about anyways. I dropped out of college twice, and I don't think I'll ever go back because of this. The job is not very enjoyable, but depending on your financial goals, it may be work the sacrifice

    I think FIRE had the right idea. I'm saving aggressively. I work for walmart, and make dogshite. Well, 15.3 is a garbage wage but 20 is better. At 30% my GAS, I'm saving about 9,547.2/y with my GAS being 31,824. I hope to upgrade soon, because if I can get 20/hr, I will earn 41,600, hopefully making it so I can go up to 50% my GAS. After my typical yearly CoL, I'll have 202 per paycheck, but when you factor in taxes, then maybe it should be GAS × 0.4 instead of 0.5.

      really simple shit that most normal people pay attention to.

    Hi Humphrey! I was looking at your list of assets and I noticed there was no life insurance listed. Some argue that life insurance should be included as an asset when calculating net worth. How do you feel about this, and what argument would you make against including life insurance in net worth calculation?

    I make just under 70k a year as a Correctional Officer in Canada, in 5 years that’ll be 89k and our contract is being re-negotiated right now with the government and we’re expecting to get a new contract that puts us just under 98k. I’ve been following your tips, I wrote down all of my fixed and variable expenses, cut my variable expenses as much as I could without sacrificing quality of life, while adopting new, less expensive habits to replace the more expensive ones. I’ve managed to put away just under 5k in 6 months. I have a child on the way so the pressure to put away a good chunk of savings into a high interest account is higher than ever. I’ve calculated that by next May I’ll have a savings account earning 500$ a month passively off of interest, and I’ll still be making my bi-weekly contributions which will make my savings account explode. I live in one of the most expensive regions of Canada and on a modest salary I’m still expecting to be a homeowner in 5 years. Your tips and your videos have been indescribably valuable to me. My family and my incoming son thank you, your work is changing lives and is going to help us achieve a much higher quality of life than we would have without your advice.

    So as a couple you can essentially max out 401k (22,500 each before tax) and Roth IRA (6,500 each after tax) which equates to about $65k gross and meets the target.
    If you are single this would be more difficult due to tax brackets taking more of your income and having to put half the needed monthly amount into an after tax brokerage account.

  • @WinS392
    @WinS392 Місяць тому

    i like the video but think it's a bit too rosy on growth stocks and real estate. the 8% from index funds is already relatively high-risk, high-return but has the magical property of decreasing in risk the longer you hold them. historically, they almost never lose money over a period of 10 years, while growth stocks of course can easily go to 0 over that period. real-estate will also almost certainly appreciate over 10 years, but can screw you in plenty of other ways, especially if you're renting it out, and the leveraged appreciation aspect is overrated. because if you hold onto real-estate for a long period, you'll have paid most of the cost of it (via mortgage payments) so the appreciation is a smaller percentage of what you put in. so if you're treating property as a leveraged investment like that you have to hope for a short-term upswing to make an exit. maybe that will happen, maybe it won't. to say nothing of everything else you have to do to manage real-estate.

    I save about 30% of my gross income. I spend 10% of my gross income on my child's "enrichment" experiences and education. Sometimes, I wonder if I should save that 10% as well so that I can retire sooner and have more money to pass down to my child. Other times, I feel this 10% is my investment in my child's cultural wealth and intellectual growth. I just hope my consistent educational investment grows with a compound interest like my financial one does...

    @themusic6808 Рік тому +4

    One thing that will get you to a million quicker than you think is dividends, especially if you are investing in individual dividend paying stocks that are increasing their dividends 6% or more per year and especially if you are re-investing those dividends back into the stock to increase your dividend each time it’s paid. It may not allow for a million in 10 years for someone with a regular 9 to 5 (it’s very few who can realistically keep a 5,000 a month savings rate) but after 10 to 15 years of contributing 4000 a year into a dividend stock can generate 5 to 10 thousand a year in annual dividends. Do that between 3 or 4 different stocks and that’s an extra 3,000 a month being generated in passive income or 40,000 a year being added to your regular savings rate. As opposed to just buying a S&P 500 index fund which yes will likely grow at 9% per year or more but isn’t generating hardly any dividend income, you can almost certainly hit a million between 15 to 20 years when you factor in dividends paid and re-invested for even someone able to save 1,500 to 2,000 a month…it just takes a little more time to get it rolling and compounding.

Study your ass off until you are 30, make that good income, then only let go of those frugal poor international student habbits slowly. The path to success in the US is much clearer and easier than in Asia. We are dismayed to see that most Americans are so bad at studying hard and live within their means. So many Chinese and Asians would give an arm or a leg to have opportunities like this.

      yeah, wealthfront sweeps your $ to a network of partner banks (I think they haev 15-20) where they keep the total amount less than $250k (covered under fdic insurance), right now even if a bank fails FDIC insurance will step in. Thats the point of the system. in the case of FRB and SVB, they had a clientele that often had way more money in their accounts than FDIC limits, so when they all went to withdraw - you saw those two banks go down. Some regional banks are suffering, but even if they ultimately fail, the FDIC steps in and that system is in place to ensure deposits up to $250k. Right now theres chatter about raising FDIC limits in general (last time it was raised was from $100 to $250k back in 2008)
