    Dave uses the sunk cost analogy to argue you should sell the condo if wouldn't buy it if you didn't own it. But that's exactly the scenario where a sunk cost would be in favor of keeping the condo because of the transaction fee associated with selling. The truer scenario would be would you buy the condo if it was 6% off, there are no closing costs, you wouldn't have to hastle with negotiating or lining up financing. Not to mention having to deal with selling the property.

  • @bettedavis9261
    @bettedavis9261 3 роки тому +4

    Harrison and his fiancee need to have sinking funds outside of the FFEF for new vehicles and other large purchases. With sinking funds, you don't have to pull money from your FFEF for non-emergencies. That should set his fiancee's mind to rest. Obviously, money isn't combined until after marriage.

      Better to invest the 500$ incase something happens what if someone challenges the will. It’s been known to happen.
      It’s better to have it detailed out.
      People can turn and become others while grieving. Better to be safe and 500$ is nothing to avoid feuding and misunderstanding🦋

      Dave is all about mutual funds (groups of stocks) vs single stocks like tesla or facebook. It's less volatility. If all your money is in 1 stock and company tanks then you're in rough shape.

    • @ebonypenguin2899
      @ebonypenguin2899 5 місяців тому

      Index fund buys many stocks (e.g. fifty stocks, although number can vary) versus carefully hand picking single stocks. My husband does pick single stocks (Australian because we are in Australia) and this has worked well for him. If I outlive him, I won't do the work of picking single stocks and will invest in a domestic index fund. There are heaps of index funds. Part of the equation is how much work you want to do and then why you are trusting your own judgement, versus trusting the broad average of the market.

      @@lukabeast1150 life insurance is meant to protect those that depend on you after you are gone. If you have no dependents there is nothing to worry about. Your will decides where your assets go, if you don't have an appreciable net-worth to divide up (or no one to give it to) don't worry about it.
