Investing in alternative income streams that are independent of the government should be the top priority for everyone right now. especially given the global economic crisis we are currently experiencing. Stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still attractive investments at the moment.
I don't have a full-time job; instead, I'm self-employed with a variety of sources of income. Regardless of how much money I generate each month, I maintain the same budget and adhere to my means-tested lifestyle.
This seems like the worst period. Even the markets are very unpredictable. started investing recently when the market prices were a bit high ,today i am more than 60% down
I began my investment journey at the age of 38, primarily through hard work and dedication. Now at the age of 40, I am thrilled to share that my passive income exceeded $100k in a single year for the first time. This success reinforces the importance of the advicmonth e mentioned earlier. It is not about achieving quick wealth, but rather ensuring long-term financial prosperity.
Fantastic! can u share more details?
She's known as 'Julia Hope Marble'. One of the finest portfolio managers in the field. She's widely recognized; you should take a look at her work.
I’m in Ohio and the housing market here over the last 7-8 years is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. Homes that were bought for $130K in 2015 are now being sold for $590k. I’m talking about tiny, disgusting, poorly built 950 square foot shit boxes in quiet mediocre neighbourhoods. Then you’ve got Better, average sized homes in nicer neighbourhoods that were $300K+ 10 years ago selling for $750k+ now. Wild times.
Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult. Home prices will need to fall by a minimum of 40% (more like 50%) before the market normalizes.If you are in cross roads or need sincere advise on the best moves to take now its best you seek an independent advisor who knows about the financial markets.
Personally, I can connect to that. When I began working with a fiduciary financial counsellor, my advantages were certain. I got into the market early 2019 and the constant downtrends and losses discouraged me so I sold off, got back in Dec 2021 this time with guidance, Long story short, its been 2years now and I’ve gained over a million dollars following guidance from my investment adviser.
This is huge! think you can point me towards the direction of your advisor? been looking at advisory management myself.. seeking ways to invest and make more money with the uncertainty in the economy.
There are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Colleen Rose Mccaffery” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thanks a lot for this suggestion. I needed this myself, I looked her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
I'd love to invest in stocks after listening to a guy on a podcast talk about the importance of investing and how he made over $300k in few months of investing into stocks from $175k initial capital, somehow this video has helped shed light on some things but I'm confused about the current market volatility I'm new to this and I'm open to ideas.
It's difficult to beat the market as an ordinary investor, you don't have access to information that professionals have. So it's just better if you invest with a professional who knows how things work better.
That's right, I started investing sometime in 2019 and by early 2019 I pulled a profit of over $800k with no prior investing knowledge or skill I was basically just following the guidelines set by my financial advisor, despite the current market volatility I return at least $75k every month so you don't necessarily need to be a perfect investor or do the hard works, just have an advisor to guide you.
Interesting! been looking to switch to an advisor for a while now but the fear of losing funds held me back, please any help pointing me to who your advisor is and how to reach them?
My CFA ’Melissa Terri Swayne’ , a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
Thanks for this amazing tips, I found her webpage and booked a call session with her, she seems proficient.
t's sad how difficult things have become in the present generation. I was wondering how to utilise some money I had. I used some of it for e-commerce business, but that sank. I'm thinking of how to use what's left to invest, but I don't really know which way to go.
I understand how you feel. It's a little bit difficult to navigate things these days. You don't wanna lose whatever is left. I may suggest that you find a financial advisor who could give you thorough advice on how to go if you want to go the investment route. Also, the fact your business failed doesn't mean you should give up.
That's right. I have tried many failed businesses and it's just a step further. Don't despair. But to add, if you do decide to use a financial advisor, it's best you use someone who understands your special needs and can work with you. I learnt this from experience before finally finding one I can stick with. Now I make six figures from my investments alone, and even more from my businesses.
Thank you for the advice. When you say financial advisor, are you talking about hedge funds? And how do I get in touch with on?
Hedge funds are good, but because of their scale, they are quite bureaucratic. The majority of independent financial advisors are available online. For example, Sharon Lynne Hart, with whom I collaborate, has a webpage. There must be more excellent ones. just do your research.
Thank you for the recommendation. I'll send her an email, and I hope I'm able to make something out of it.
The home I purchased in 2023 has appreciated by $60,000 since my acquisition. However, the downside is the diminishing value of the dollar. I am currently contemplating strategies to reinvest $300,000 in the real estate market.
Portfolio diversification is very advisable in the investment plane, well I think you need to get a financial expert to assist you with the best financial goal.
Right, I delegate my day-to-day investing to an advisor ever since suffering a major steep-down late 2020, amid rona-outbreak, and as of today, I'm semi-retired with barely 25% short of my $1m retirement goal after subsequent investments.
Once you hit a big milestone, the next comes easier.. would you mind dropping info of your Investment-Advisor please? I'm in dire need of proper asset allocation in order to achieve an optimal portfolio till year end, thanks in advance
Kathleen Cheryl Constantz is the certified CFP I use. Just search the name on the net. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
I just googled Kathleen and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
I believe the retirement crisis will get even worse. Many struggle to save due to low wages, rising prices, and exorbitant rents. With homeownership becoming unattainable for middle-class Americans, they may not have a home to rely on for retirement either.
Accurate asset allocation is crucial. Some use hedging or defensive assets in their portfolio for market downturns. Seeking financial advice is vital. This approach has kept me financially secure for over five years, with a return on investment of nearly $1 million.
Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach you using their service?

I searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon. Thank you
No financial institution should be allowed to own 40% or more of the single family homes. This recession is paving a way for a monopoly on homes to further rid of the middle class.
The S&P 500 moved 8.9% higher last Month, achieving one of its best monthly performances in history.. which is an indicator for profits to continue to improve. I just want my money to keep outgrowing the inflation rate. I'm still looking for companies to make additions to my $500K portfolio, to boost performance. Here for ideas...
I think the next big thing will be A.I. For enduring growth akin to META, it's vital to avoid impulsive decisions driven by short-term fluctuations. Prioritize patience and a long-term perspective consider financial advisory for informed buying and selling decisions.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.
Glad to have stumbled on this comment, Please who is the consultant that assist you and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with them?

Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Miami in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. People will have to accept the possibility that we won't ever return to 3%. If sellers must sell, home prices will have to decline, and lower evaluations will follow. Pretty sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.
If anything, it'll get worse. Very soon, affordable housing will no longer be affordable. So anything anyone want to do, I will advise they do it now because the prices today will look like dips tomorrow. Until the Fed clamps down even further, I think we're going to see hysteria due to rampant inflation. You can't halfway rip the band-aid off.
Home prices will come down eventually, but for now; get your money (as much as you can) out of the housing market and get into the financial markets or gold. The new mortgage rates are crazy, add to that the recession and the fact that mortgage guidelines are getting more difficult.

“Sonya lee Mitchell’’ is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
8% interest rate in 1990s was not a big deal compared to now. Houses in the 90s were a fraction of what they are now. I pull the trigger in a heart beat on a 200k house at 8% right now. But 1st you are getting a shoe box for 200k now vs the 90s. Plus insurance rates and property taxes are outrageous compared to the 90s.
I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $200k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point.

Started my portfolio last year with SCHD, VOO, and VUG after watching one of your videos. In terms of share price, VOO is way up (22.25%) and VUG is waaaaay up (39.62%). Thanks for the education!
Isn't VOO and VUG similar in the sense both are investing in the S&P 500? What is the difference? I thought it is generally advised against to invest in multiple ETFs or Mutual Funds?
There is 55% overlap with the holdings in VOO and VUG. 1 is tech heavy and the other is financials heavy similar, but not the same. VOO tracks the S&P 500; VUG is just focused on large cap growth stocks. VUG is a bit more volatile, but with a higher upside potential. VOO is a bit safer. I’ve never heard anyone advise against multiple ETFs/mutual funds. You just have to be aware of overlap. You don't have to act on every forecast, so I'll suggest that you work with a financial advisor who can help you choose the best times to purchase and sell the shares or ETFs you want to acquire.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.
I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress. Being heavily liquid, I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
Finding financial advisors like Natalie Noel Burns who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
The not buying a house does not work in the UK as 90% of rents are higher than a mortgage cost. Also if you want to start a family you need a stable place to raise your children and with renting you can be kicked out within a few months notice and your whole life could be turned upside down.
In Australia too.
Dnt have kids.
Sorry but where about are you based? Here in the South Rent is absolutely not higher than mortgage monthly costs lol. Your principle most likely works in the North where houses are cheap but not anywhere near London or its surroundings Oxford, Cambridge etc
Exact same in Ireland absolutely terrible advice from this guy.

Building wealth from nothing involves consistent saving, disciplined spending, and strategic investments. Begin by creating a budget to track expenses and identify areas for savings. Prioritize paying off high-interest debt and establishing an emergency fund. As you build a foundation, start investing in low-cost options like index funds, and focus on continuous learning and improving your skills for better income opportunities.
Impressive insights! For beginners like me, managing and staying updated can be overwhelming. Are you an experienced investor or do you have a strategic approach for staying informed?
Absolutely not, as I've closely tracked my portfolio's performance, witnessing a staggering $482k growth in just the last two quarters. This experience has taught me the secrets behind experienced traders' substantial gains in what might appear as unpredictable markets. Undoubtedly, it's been a bold and rewarding choice I made fairly recently.
That's quite remarkable! I'm genuinely interested in benefiting from the guidance of such experienced advisors, especially considering the current state of my struggling portfolio. May I know the name of the advisor who has been assisting you in navigating these financial challenges?
Camille Alicia Garcia" serves as my advisor, bringing extensive qualifications and experience in the financial market. Her deep understanding of portfolio diversity positions her as an industry expert. I suggest delving into her credentials for further insight. With her considerable experience, she offers valuable guidance to anyone seeking to navigate the complexities of the financial market.
Thank you for the information. I conducted my own research and your advisor appears to be highly skilled and knowledgeable. I've sent her an email and arranged a phone call. Her expertise is impressive.
Nice work. I’ve been on the Blcktken300 train for a while, never sold as they are always building.
Why would anyone need so much money at the age of 69? I mean, it's foolish to save in a fund all your life just to have 13 million dollars at 69. What utter nonsense. 😀😀😀😀😀😀
I'm DCAing in Blcktken300 as well. ETH heavier DCA and ALGO. I'm taking your advice and starting Google tomorrow with a 50 dollar purchase and continuing Microsoft and Apple. VTI and VOO on another app and longterm portfolio. Here we go family!
Bought my small house and now mortgage free. Paid into a pension since 21 yrs old and now retired at 55. Not huge monthly payment but life and no longer working was always my aim and debt free. Happy, very happy.

My experience. I purchased a house in 2013 with 20% down. My total payment including taxes, insurance, HOA is $1,800/mo. As of today, this exact same house is renting for $4,200. The property value has also gone up 3x! I'm glad I bought my house.
Me too. I built equity in my first house and was able to pay cash for this house. I watched my elders on a fixed income renting in a retirement community where they raise the rent! That was years ago and my goal was to have a place to live when I am too old to work.
Same, we are so blessed to buy in 2005 . 300 now ite 450 crazy, we pay 1200 a month same house to rent is 2800..wow
Me too!!! I bought in 2-09 in cash!!! No payments for 14 years and I have freedom to work part time!!! Car paid for in cash also🎉🎉🎉🎉
I bought my house in Australia, 2020 middle of covid. 500k. Now worth 750k AUD. Equity to use for shares/ another house. Not buying a house has closed the door on people's ability to live in their own house forever. He talks about 7% annually with bonds however doesn't talk about the inflation rate being 7%.

It is difficult to make exact projections for the housing market as it is still unclear how quickly or to what degree the Federal Reserve will reduce inflation and borrowing costs without having a substantial negative impact on demand from consumers for anything from houses to cars.
I recently sold my home in the Boca Grande area and am considering investing a lump sum into the stock market before the anticipated rebound, couple of folks have been discussing a potential May rally, speculating on which stocks may experience substantial growth during the festive season. Do you have any insight into which stocks these might be?
If you are new to the market, I recommend seeking professional assistance. The most effective approach to creating a well-organized portfolio is to begin with a professional who is knowledgeable about the turbulent yet profitable market.
Over the past three years, I have been working with an investment coach who has provided daily guidance on my investment decisions. With their expert analysis, I have realized gains of over 850k. Their insights have helped me avoid losses and capitalize on market breakthroughs, particularly during downtrends.
@@JordanPortales I'm intrigued by your experience. Could you possibly recommend a trustworthy advisor you've consulted with?
is it difficult to predict? i believed months ago interest rates would go higher and house prices would drop. i have no training but this guy explained it was inevitable .depends on who you listen to .People who remain in the same job when they are consistently wrong and not accountable ? the housing market applies to people who can afford to buy .this guy predicts that every generation will get poorer and it will continue.The number of people able to buy will reduce as the number of properties owned by rich can only increase and be rented with government policies which favour them .there will be more of a difference between the super rich and everyone else.the system is built that way .the tax on income is way more crushing than tax on wealth (assets owned by the wealthy )if leaders were concerned with fixing the economy have they not had enough time to do it(centuries)or want to actually do it ?the super powerful and wealthy have done so over generations and passed it on. how can every country have the same problem now ? it has been fixed to benefit a certain protected group. there has been a larger increase in the number of millionares and billionaires in the last 2 years than any period in the history of mankind. im not suggesting every politician is corrupted .some are incompetent but they are managers for the global business NOT representative of the people kzhead.info/sun/ZJmTdKlonWupkmg/bejne.html
I bought my house 10 years ago. My mortgage is 711 a month. Houses up my block rent for 1850 a month now. I’m happy with my purchase.
Absolutely. A home purchase during the housing crash is definitely paying off now. Our mortgage is way lower than rent these days.
You just highlighted the exact point he's making. The real cost of owning this property isn't $700 a month.
The NWO will soon change all that, unfortunately.
@@jamies6534 $711 includes my taxes and my and homeowners, monthly or yearly cost that I put into this house would never reach the 1850 that people are paying up my block plus it seems to go up $100 every year the rent that is, I bought this house for 110,000 and now it was estimated at 279! I don’t even believe that I would be able to afford to live in this neighborhood anymore if I had to pay $2000 a month. A neighborhood I grew up in and want to stay in. Also, I have it to pass down to my family. The reality is every situation isn’t for everybody. I understand that, but he just made a blank statement that you should never buy a house and I don’t agree.
Are the employers your region having trouble finding staff or do they hire live in staff?
I lived in a caravan next to a loch and some woodland for 8 years, saved a big deposit and bought an old stone semi rural cottage for £57k. Only a few years left on the mortgage. I dont care about being rich but my own home means the world to me!

Having a one year emergency fund is honestly extremely hard when rent is around 1500 for a single bedroom 😭
I guess if you only make $2000 per month.
So true.
I know it’s dependent on where you live but me hearing that in my context thinks that is a steal 😮💨
The S&P 500, if one sticks with it, outpaces inflation by many percentage points. I just want my money to keep outgrowing the inflation rate. That is why I'm looking for companies now to put in $80k for a start. Just don't know how to proceed
I've totally stopped believing in the S&P to deliver any significant return, especially this period. I'm thinking of redistributing my portfolio to other stocks, but I hardly know which ones will do well.
This is probably what I should do. Who is your advisor, please?

I bought a house! It's the best thing I ever did! It's launched my mindset in new directions! Remember that having your own space has profound phycological impact and can be life changing for some that dont live in a healthy environment
I agree. Not every decision in life needs to be about making money and being rich.
This has been my experience, too. The great thing about a house as an investment is that you can live in it. Once it is paid off, living rent free is a fantastic retirement benefit. I also happen to be a person who likes to modify things.
@@rustyshimstock8653- it’s great to live freely after you’ve paid off the mortgage……until you need care and then the council takes your house to pay for it and you’re beside someone who lived in rented accommodation! I wouldn’t advise anyone to buy a house nowadays or if they did want the security, do the share purchase and put down the bare minimum for the mortgage element. If you lose your job, you’ll get benefits for the rental element but only the interest element of your mortgage.
It’s true that a house paid off is such a blessing and mentally satisfying. Though, depend where you live, some homes needs 20-30 years to be paid off. So if you live in low cost cities then that makes sense. In high cost cities, buying a home is super expensive
My mortgage is significantly lower than what it would cost to rent.
*Great Video! I really do have a question. For someone with less than $10,000 to invest, how would you recommend we enter the crypto market? I am looking at studying some traders and copying their strategy rather than investing myself and losing money emotionally. What’s your take on this approach*
The key to financial stability is having the right investment suggestions for a diverse portfolio. Many investment failures and losses happen when you invest without proper guidance.
A lot of people still make massive profit from the crypto market, all you really need is a relevant information and some

what book
What was the recommendation?
Retirement for some people becomes their bondage in poverty because they failed to invest with the little they have on their active years of working, this is an error we need to start working on now, I’ll advise that while you still can work and earn also take some money aside and invest in your future after retirement so this classification won’t have to be yours

The philosophy of the rich and the poor is this " the rich invest their money and spend what is left, the poor spend their money and invest what is left"
Poor people think about what they can buy with their money, rich people think about what they can invest in with their money.

My father was a judge, Harvard Law valedictorian, 5 country clubs, had to have a new expensive car every year, new, while we often didnt have food on the table, and my mom had to go to work secretly (wives didn't work outside the home in our social class in those days). His obsession with status ruined his family, his mental health, and because those "things" didnt make him happy, he ended putting a bullet in his head. Things don't bring happiness, and he sacrificed every relationship he had...For "status".
Wow. My father was weird too. May they both rest... wherever they may be.
Wow. My kids father abandoned his 4 kids, including an 18 months old autistic child for his career. ( MD n PHD epidemiologist from Cambridge). Never helped us with a dim. Took every little money we had, left us in debts and has never helped us.

“ how can you judge someone based on a reaction to a situation they’ve never been in?” what an amazing quote.
I paid off my house in 9.5 years, and im 38 years old. THe feeling of no mortgage or rent is the best thing i've ever done. I've been maximizing my investment yearly after paying off my house. This is something I couldn't have done if i was renting like these guys. Have a plan and stick to it.
Based on
This episode was so helpful, and honestly, this is one of the best podcasts out there. I feel like I've learnt so much since I started following your channel. Thank you for producing such great content!
In my opinion, a housing market crash is imminent due to the high number of individuals who purchased homes above the asking price despite the low interest rates. These buyers find themselves in precarious situations as housing prices decline, leaving them without any equity. If they become unable to afford their homes, foreclosure becomes a likely outcome. Even attempting to sell would not yield any profits. This scenario is expected to impact a significant number of people, particularly in light of the anticipated surge in layoffs and the rapid increase in the cost of living.
For 2023, it’s hard to nail down specific predictions for the housing market is because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to cars.
I suggest you offset your real estate and get into stocks, A recession as bad it can be, provides good buying opportunities in the markets if you’re careful and it can also create volatility giving great short time buy and sell opportunities too. This is not financial advise but get buying, cash isn’t king at all in this time!
You are right! I’ve diversified my $450K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment coach, I have been able to generate a little bit above $830k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.

At the very least, I understand the concept of leverage. Making money and achieving financial independence isn't as difficult as many people believe. With the right information, it is much easier to build wealth and maintain financial stability indefinitely. The only true way to earn a lot of money and stay wealthy indefinitely is to participate in financial programmes and products.
Most people simply enter the foreign exchange market without comprehending matters like this. The first stage in building money is determining your goals and risk tolerance, which you may do on your own or with the assistance of a financial counselor who works with a verified Finance agency. And also you can learn the facts about saving and investing and create a clear plan, you should be able to acquire financial security over time and enjoy the benefits of income management.
I've been making over six figures passively investing with Joseph Sylvan Anderson, who showed me the right community to join and grow my finances, and I don't have to do much work. I will always make money, even if the market is crashing.
He does appear to be very knowledgeable about this subject. I discovered his online page after conducting a Google search for his full name. I read through his resume, educational background, and qualifications, and it was very impressive. I left him a note and scheduled a call with him.
That is why I work with Joseph Sylvan Anderson, who introduced me to a better financial community, a verified agency where I learned about money and how to make it, and free books, courses, and daily lectures. You can also meet new people, which was the best decision I ever made.
You'll be better positioned for success in life if you work with a financial advisor like Joseph who has extensive experience in a reliable financial firm. The reason it's always a good idea to join the right community is because I'm glad I was able connect with "Joseph Sylvan Anderson" earlier this year because, while others were lamenting the market's decline due to the state of the economy, I was busy learning from him and eventually made over seven figures in the first quarter alone.
I recently discovered your channel while browsing for something else. I've already watched 5 episodes and found them to be the best and most informative. As an artist I can paint with my right brain, my left brain is attentive to your content, which is on auto-play. I appreciate the amount of knowledge I gain from your episodes and I often share your work. Thank you for providing intriguing, entertaining, and educational content for everyone to enjoy and learn from. Keep up the excellent work!
Just finished the podcast! So amazed and mind blown with this message from Ramit! Ive watched your Netflix series but daang, this one is different! We were never taught about financial literacy as young as we are really! so Thank you so much for teaching us this valuable lessons about money! Paul watching here from the Philippines!
The best thing I've done is to start reading Newsletters on business/marketing etc. In my bio I have links to my favorite ones

Who is your advisor and how can I contact him?
I’ve listened to him for years. He uses the “Don’t buy a house” thing, not because it’s necessarily true, but because it’s controversial and riles people up, which is how he gets people to follow and pay attention to him. It’s a brilliant marketing trick. The truth is that for many, a house is a good way to keep your rent steady, while for others, it’s not that helpful. The answer is it depend, but by taking a strong stake against buying, people will endlessly debate this idea in the comments of his videos, which the KZhead algorithm loves
Agreed. I like your “rent steady” comment. My friends who bought houses 15-20 years ago have mortgages of $1,000. While people who rent pay $3,000. Renting catches up to you and steals all your raises and disposable income.
Yeah well people are sick of “marketing” tricks and want real mentorship and honest advice, pass on this big stock fund management company poster boy.
@@Andy-wo9bmThen read JL Colins, 'A Simple Path to Wealth'. You won't regret it.
Yea. He is a bit of a clown show
dudes... just listen till the end. He talks exactly about that and says how people misinterpret him. Starting at 1:33:20
Growing up as new immigrants to South Africa, I grew up with no money. Growing up in a Jewish household - money was always up for debate… from financial mistakes, to future aspirations. Today thankfully, I lack very little - I give away a lot and I sleep well at night. I grew up on the notion of wealth =property…. And it worked out well… I have properties today on four continents. Thank you for this podcast - I am grateful to learn about other forms of investing.
I love the teachings of this guy. God bless you sir for your great wisdom.
Interesting video; I wish I had more time for experimentation, but I'll be 50 on December, and what i have done so far is to use all my entire savings to buy a house that i am still paying and i wish i know this ideas in my early 40s i would have made so much money to buy myself Houses and still have enough investment before i retire by the of 65
That's right, contacting a consultant during the pandemic was how I was able to navigate the chaotic stock decline.
over the last 4months, and I've generated around $380K in net income. Having a coach has significantly strengthened my credibility and perspective on the market.
Nice summary, so who is the coach that tutored you? And how can I contact them, i'm in need of their skillset.
Lisa Ann Moberly is the FA assisting me with my investments; you can arrange for an appointment through her personal webpage.
This is a scam! You’re all bots. This conversation is sooo fake👎
🔥🔥🔥 thank you!! Need more videos like this!! Very detailed, with great accuracy and easy to follow along!
Is it the sign of a good podcast the amount of times that you return to watch it again, or is it the knowledge that is gained? Once again Steven you have knocked it out of the park. Your work has done so much to improve the quality of my life. Thank you.
Yes, excellent work..I love the long form and no interruptions. Also the nuggets of information that cause me to reconsider an existing belief.
Not everyone buys a house for prestige. I live in a property that I own for a feeling of security and comfort in more ways than one. I lived in rental properties where the owner sold it from under my feet. I had strangers coming through the home I was living in. It was an inconvenience, to say the least. It came at a most inconvenient time when I had to put my energy into looking for another property to live in. So from then on, while renting, I was concerned that the owner may sell the property at any time. I hated the regular inspection of the real estate agent coming through where I lived. Owning my home I can have an animal at any point I choose to, whereas renting requires permission from a landlord who may not agree to it. In certain houses, the landlord won't even let you put a hook on the wall to hang a picture where a picture would belong. I can put my creativity into decorating my home, painting whatever colour I like and making adjustments to improve the function of the house. I am now mortgage free, and I am so glad to achieve my goal.
I feel the same. I hate renting and can't wait to get my own place.
Totally agree, I have been renting for 20 years and when I calculate money I have paid and not happy where I was its more half a million. I decided last year to buy my own stand to build its lots of work but never been more happier and for my family and future generations and I don''t owe anyone.
I would sooner choose to own my own home; than travel and stay in swanky hotels. I also have part ownership in a small city rental (no mortgage) and the rental return is more than I could make by otherwise investing my money on the stock market - which to be honest, I don't understand, and in the past have only made losses on my investments.
Well you can't keep renting a place forever lol
Not to mention in many states in the USA, rents are raised annually.
Hello, I am in London and am considering investing in real estate as a way to get some passive income. A few years ago, my brother purchased a home in a county outside of London. Because he was unable to find tenants, the property was eventually repossessed. As a result of this experience, I'm concentrating on purchasing real estate in London, where it's quite challenging to obtain a mortgage because of the high cost of the properties. Would you kindly recommend an easy way, where one may try to sustain these cost on mortgage?
Houses are so expensive in the uk now. How would anyone pay off 400k plus, unless they want to commit to a ball and chain lifelong mortgage? Am I missing something? Seems like even if you had two professionals there that would take decades to pay off…?
First, Jessica you need to have a salary of at least 25k before you will be considered for a mortgage, that you need for properties. If you want to achieve a 75 percent yield yearly, try looking out for an investing advisory or else you will be competing against professionals themselves.
Spot on Joe, generating returns are usually phenomenal. What would have been really interesting would be a proper breakdown showing their costs , services, investors return..
it's important to consider the different aspects of managing a property internationally, including understanding tax implications in your countries. You might also want to think about the logistics of property management from afar and perhaps consider engaging an asset coach to assist with the day-to-day management of your investments while creating revenue to offset your mortgage. I’ve done so with my coach Frost HIlda and I've already paid off two previous mortgages. Now I'm working on my third.
Really good insight sir, I have two properties offered off the market since the high interest, I have been offered a developer loan but Im interested on making more income, does he’s advisory give access to substantial equity returns to offset my mortgage?
My morgage is $750 a month.. renting in this area is $1500. And luckily in 9 years weve had no expensive house issues.
My grandmother taught me hese things when i was young. She said 1)never get into debt and never use credit cards 2) split your income in five and put money away for a)expenses (food, shelter, clothing transportation) b) invest in a small bussiness not stocks c) a dream you have, sth you enjoy d) education or new skill you want to learn e) save for a goal, what are you saving for? She was a great with money. But society and marketing tells you the opposite... that is why everybody is living in debt... or paycheck to paycheck
I had student loan that interest rates were lower then bank interest rates so I earned on it... We had small business that was waste of several thousand £, I earned from stocks... I have master degree and earned less then people who worked physically in our company. Over last 8 years we would already own half of the house that we now rent...
@@justcurioushuman getting a loan be in debt pay it off to have a master degree and being paid less than those who dont have a degree in the marketplace.... I dont see the positive thing here...that is sth that nobody understands, it doesnt make sense
Just reality of what you said as an advice... I actually earned on this loan if you read properly - about 3-5% over inflation. It's because some of interest rates were paid by government. I hadn't use these money - most of it I kept on term deposit. Education in Poland is free but it was a waste of time. I would earn during that time much more and probably learnt more... Would gain experience. @@iaf4454
I think you’d really like the book “the psychology of money”
You should do a new video about MYSTICFLIP ! I really like you’re mellow delivery and you seem like you’re very knowledgeable. I watch lots of influencers and you always seem very calculated and know exactly what you’re talking about and understand it. You’re better at explaining complicated things simply, than any other person on youtube keep it up brother!
Amazing discussion, thanks so much Ramit!! I've never watched a video this long on KZhead before (I get distracted easily) but this was GOLDEN!!
Steven asked the right questions !! Great interview, especially about the stocks
I purchased a house in 2014 and sold it 7 years later for a £66k profit. Ive put a large amount of the equity into a financial investment portfolio with my bank and its been down 2% since it went in. I also put some money into different shares based on warren buffets strategy and thats now up 18%. A friend of mine also lost about 30-40k on investing. You have to be very careful. I dont think theres a correct solution. Some house purchases do amazing. Follow your instinct and be sensible along the way while enjoying the few years we are on this planet!
You are not alone To keep up with rising cost we are beginning to see the equity of our home for what it truly is, Its becoming hard for us seniors not to ask the obvious question: Should we cash in, invest the money, and rent/relocate?
@@PurvisTwiggs Have you thought about keeping up with the whims of a Landlord? I am invested fully in the markets under a custodian who is a fiduciary to me and my beneficiaries. You should not sell your home with a good plan. That can only work if you are looking at investing under 5 years.
I know times are uncertain. I and my spouse are working on a ballpark estimate of $5M for retirement, and I have a good 6-figures each loaded up for this, if we sold our house you think we can do it in 5 years at most? I'm nearly 55.
Sincerely it's best to seek the advice of a stockbroker/fduciary right now, unless you're canny yourself.
@@TariqTrafficante can you refer me please, how can one get an advisor to work for them?
I am seeking some investment guidance. It seems like I am never able to identify trends, options always go against me, and I can't utilize scanners efficiently. I am looking for a simple reproducible passive income strategy that supplements my income and eventually replace my wage income.
While I don't consider myself an expert in this field, I'm sure you will find the expertise and support of an adviser invaluable.
I have $50,000 USD that I'm considering investing in the stock market. However, I must admit that I lack the knowledge and expertise in this area. does anyone have experience in this field, and I was wondering if you could kindly point me in the direction of your advisor or someone you trust for guidance in making informed investment decisions. Any help or recommendations you could provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
You may Know Michelle Christine Parker but If you don't you may do some looking up and thank me later. She's been my adviser for the most part and it's been a smooth ride
Thanks a lot. I just googled her up.
If you want to be passive, an advisor or fund manager is the way to go. If you want to be a little more in the know about your options I'd recommend the textbook Essentials of Investment by Bodie, Kane, and Marcus. You can then ask an advisor about their experience with any of the strategies explained in the book to get a better idea of their real life application. If you have a low risk tolerance, go for stocks in the consumer staples index. These will have slow but consistent growth and usually maintain a stable price even during recession because consumers still need toilet paper and toothpaste even when the economy is down. If you want to take a more aggressive approach, a fund manager with years of experience and access to algorithmic data will be able to foresee upcoming opportunities a lot better than you as an individual investor with limited experience. Hope this can help!
Thank you so much. This was very helpful and highly informative to me🙏 I feel happy I find myself recognizing i’m on the in positive mindset side about money! Its so enjoyable to watch these conversations on your platform!!Greetings from Leiden, Holland🍀
So thankful I was able to buy my condo in 2019. Renting in the same area would cost me $1500 more per month now and I wouldn’t have $350k in equity.
I bought a 200 year-old house in Japan for under $3000. Currently I live in it and am doing some DIY to renovate and eventually rent it out as a holiday home.
I love that. Were you from Japan originally?
Damn probably haunted too 😂😂
Did u have to be a japanese citizen to buy a house ?
I buy small houses on large lots in towns where new houses are being built on small lots. Eventually the large lot will either be split or someone will want to build a mansion there. It’s always a “good deal/good idea” if it’s a good company/property etc. market fluctuations are just gravy.
Get your investments right before venturing into real estate, I leverage on the volatility of the market for significant returns rather than holding and loosing value to the volatility of the market I made my first mill from going diverse, mainly stocks, ETFs, few Cryptocurrencies and bonds. thankful to my now financial advisory Olivia Rene Reyes. It’s a long term plan for me so I invest and re-invest. about to purchase my second property ..she's the best in the business

Great video. Going to start a fund IMMEDIATELY. I love the questions Steven asks. M favourite retort was when he put Touk in his place.
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.
The US-Stock Mrkt had been on it’s longest bull-run in history, so the mass hysteria and panic is relatable considering we’re not accustomed to such troubled mrkts, but there are avenues lurking around if you know where to look. My wife and I are retiring this year with over $7,000,000 in tax deferred investments. up until 3 years ago we were 100% in the S&P. During bear markets we had a perfect plan. We got an investment manager in our corner and didn’t look at our portfolio for nearly a year.
Same here, 75% of my portfolio is in the red and I really don’t know how long I can stomach the losses. I’m beginning to reach a breaking point.
Hello, I am new when it comes to investing and i would really appreciate if I could get some tips about where it is worth to invest in (ETFs, Stocks, Growth stocks, Dividend stock etc.)Please do you mind referring me to your financial analyst?
My advisor is Christine Jane Mclean, a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
'Run the numbers and never feel guilty about renting' Well said...and thank you!'
Until they keep raising rent on you as values and/or the landlord’s costs climb. Only salvation if the big bad govt steps in to shield you with price caps etc. But even that has a local cost to you down the road.
This is crap advice.
This was an incredibly insightful episode, thank you!
Thanks for sharing I am very new to your channel I’ve just subscribed very nice pieces !!!
Despite my young age I was always frugal with money (thanks to the financial traumas from the childhood). I was able to save up a cushion and quit my job just 3 days before the war in my country begun. Everybody was shocked how could I afford not working, support a family member and lots of pets for 6 months and not looking for another job. Even my ex-coworkers who had the same salary! Folks, it’s not magic, it’s discipline. But it’s also important to learn how to multiply money which is my next step and this podcast helps a lot. Thank you!
Most smokers smoke the value of 1-3 houses in their lifetime.
Recently came across your channel and I’m so happy I did. I listened to this whole interview and learned so much. I’ve purge book and the journal. My life has just got better and better. At this point, I'm still at a crossroad regarding whether or not to liquidate my $138k stock portfolio. What’s the best way to take advantage of this current market? Thank you!
Find quality stocks that have long term potential, and ride with those stocks. I have found it takes someone who is very familiar with the market to make such good picks.
I agree with you. I started out with investing on my own, but I lost a lot of money. I was able to pull out about $200k after the 2020 crash. I invested the money using an analyst, and in seven months, I raked in almost $673,000
Please, could you recommend the FA you work with? I could really use some help right now.
Big Credits to ''Pamela Helynn Kirchoff '' she has a web presence, so you can simply search for, there are some others but it might be difficult to get them, but Sharon has been a good guide through the year.
Thanks for this amazing tips, I found her webpage and booked a call session with her, she seems proficient.
I love talking about money and his first few sentences are bang on - !!
When you said buy the books, I breathed a sign of relief!!! 😂 I used to feel so guilty spending my money on books a few years back, but all of that knowledge will help one day. It's also helped me write my own!! Great podcast!!! 👍🏽
I love how he explains that his message is not "Dont buy a house". Yet the Title shows "Don't buy a house" I love a lot of the interviews on this podcast. I absolutely dont like the click bait nature of the titles.But great interview as usual.
Hey great story, please keep us informed of your journey. Just a thought, I noticed the book that got you started was written by Jared Martinez. Jared is known as The FX Chief, he owns a company, Master Traders Institute ( MYSTICFLIP )in Florida. I am sure he would appreciate your story.
I've travelled 6 months a year for nearly 20 years. I live in a cheap shared flat in Prague that costs $400/month. People say I should buy a flat but also that they're jealous of my lifestyle.
Nobody is jealous of the perpetual traveler lifestyle. Traveling is way better when you have a comfortable base you can go back to.
My first house was the best investment I ever made. After 6 years I sold it for almost 3x what I bought it for. Right now is probably a bad time to buy because houses and interest rates are insane, but I definitely think buying a house is a good investment. There's no way I would have been able to make that much money if I were renting. Rent prices were more than 2x higher than what we were paying on our mortgage every month. Now I honestly wish we had stayed in that house & kept accumulating equity.
Got greedy
This is very interesting and new information for me to digest for my financial future. Thank you so much for sharing!
I would love to hear Steven talk more about moving to a industry where your skillset is scarce. This small nugget has stuck with me. I would love to delve into that more.
Yes! And how to do that if you are not in a position to move to Dubai..
The gaps close quickly and without realising it, he’s touched on an observable economic reality. It’s not durable.
When referencing corporate America, he said “They don’t really care about you as they make it seem” realest thing he said...I’ve seen experienced it first hand in the DMV. Black ppl aren’t really respected in corporate America. Glad that he was able to get out of there and become his own boss MYSTICFLIP
DMV OVER HERE FACTS!!
I enjoyed this episode podcast. I have subscribed, liked, and made it one of my favorite channels. I will continue watching.
I must say that I am listening your videos good few months and I always heard you said about to click the subscribe button. As a regular viewer, I thought I did already only to realized yesterday that I did not. Sorry, finally subscribed! 🎉❤ very good content Stephen, thank you 🙌
Buying a house was literally the best financial decision I ever made. I bought it using the bank's money, it was cheaper to make the repayments than it was to rent, and the increase in value has been far more significant than any other asset class. No brainer.
Exactly this. It's a stupid oversimplification on their part which shows how out of touch these talking heads are. Yeah, paying more for something should be avoided where you can: but what's the counterfactual? Rent in the UK is fucking ridiculous, and it works out better to own. You'll be lucky to get a 2-bed flat for less than £2,000 a month in London, and if you do you probably have to deal with damp or appliances at the end of their life or some other building issue. Over 30 years that's £720,000, in today's money.
Exactly you can always sell the house at a profit but you can never get your rent back
Same I saved & paid Cash for my house now it is Worth OVER 100x more than what I paid for it Miss Vikie 🕊💖🕊 Texas USA 🇺🇸
@@happylucky7354 ALWAYS sell the house at a profit? Maybe. Owning USUALLY costs more than renting, and the difference between the two could be looked at as the "same profit" as when you sell the house. Owning comes with costs not associated with renting. Taxes, insurance, and costly repairs. Factor those in and a renter could possibly come out ahead of an owner. As he stated you just have the run the numbers but the overlying thing here is do what makes you happy within reason and according to your personal amount of joy.
you have to do what's best for you though!! for some people ownership might not make sense if they don't know what kind of life they may want for themselves years down the line, or if it's not a priority for them. it's give or take!
I am a CPA/CFP and own multiple properties and worked with fortune 500s. There are very useful tips by the guest but also very dangerous tips to take at face value. The answer is always “it depends”. It depends how expensive the RE is in which location compared to the median income; how much your money is worth where you have decided to buy a property, but personally; nothing beats the peace of mind of not having a landlord. I will gladly pay 2 times more for that luxury.
$1000-$5000 every month to go into investment? Most people are struggling to put food on the table. Some have to choose between paying bills or eating. I think this is very out of touch !
I have a verity of options in London , please join London renters from 2000£ -100000£ per month, please don’t forget to register your guarantor… or proof of income-multiple by 3 … otherwise I won’t be able to rent a property for you 😢
@@vitalitycontractorsltd4776 Like this in Australia, too. Oh, you found a place you really like and you can (just) afford it? Maybe the garden you planted is just starting to come along. Too bad, the rent's going up by another $100 per week (on top of energy bills increasing by 28%). Say goodbye to the neighbours you've known for 3 years and pay to move everything ...again. Not only can my adult sons not afford to move out - *I* can't afford for them to go, either!
Land/property is Always the best investment in my opinion.
own a home is great !! borrow for travel and live below your "means@@@@@ enjoy your investments and dont pray that your stocks go up!!! mutual funds are great!!!
This was awesome 🤩thank you🙏🏼
Thank you for this video!

Invest your whole life and die of cancer at 50 in a rented apartment. ;) okay, to the point. Invest and inflation and the government will take everything from you. governments will ban cash and introduce digital money. This advice was good 100 years ago, but everything has changed.
I sold ALL my properties. What a waste of time accumulating and buying houses was. I completely misunderstood the method to gittin rich. Now i just rent and live stress free. The markets are everything to me now. HNY y'all. ty 4 vid.
??? May I ask why and how did you come to the conclusion
@@NineTwo_JQi listened to the money expert and not the actual research data or self education/life experience. u get me? ;)
@@TheBlueskysonI mean, by your comment seems like you’re still listening to the money experts.
Sounds less than smart to me. Unless you bought the wrong properties.
why?you can rent those properties such as air bnb.
Ramit is so good at what he does... it's beautiful to watch
Love your video. Can I ask questions? What if someone has a business and needs a good office, should I just rent it or try to buy it? Thank you so much! :) 😊
Rents in my city almost doubled this year. I'm so glad I own my home as I would not be able to rent in this city let alone retire here. It was tough at first but as my income increased the monthly repayments were a smaller proportion of my income and much cheaper than renting.
That’s fantastic, you definitely made the right choice. For most people I think buying property makes sense if you do it right and understand what you are getting into. There’s a reason a lot of wealthy individuals come from real estate. The opportunity is tremendous and real estate is one of the few asset classes that always trends up! 🙌🏻
The property tax in my area for the average home went way up, and is more than my yearly rent. So I'm happy I don't own a home. Investing in my ROTH IRA and business.
Everyone forgets. ‘Rents are so high!!’ I agree. But if it’s high, just move. Renting gives you so much freedom. Property tax and home insurance is super high? Uh oh now it’s really hard to move cuz you own a building, I mean house. Be sure to cut your grass or else the HOA will evict you
Every place is different. I don't even tolerate a10 percent increase per year.
Guessing investment groups are paying this guy to con us all into thinking we should rent.
This is your best episode yet. I sent it to my kids who are both in their 20’s. Marriage isn’t the most consequential decision that affects finances, it’s children.
Then you should send them the book as well. It's far more valuable, actionable and impactful than this. VERY easy to read/understand too.
don't reproduce should be the message. 🤣🤣 that would also help the planet a tiny bit. 8 billion+ people on the planet ffs...
I wouldn’t recommend sending the book - it’s overpriced junk and the all tips you can find online.
I was about to make this comment myself until I saw your lol
Åt dig 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😅😊😅😊😊😅😊
Wow that intro got me excited . I got my notepad ready!
Gratitude Steven and Ramit, wonderful podcast
I have an MBA in finance and I can't remotely figure out math where renting would have been better than buying a home where I live. It's not even close. It's not like there's more money to invest if you rent. There's not where I live for sure. Even when you factor in the "maintenance" argument, the math just doesn't match what I've experienced over 20 years of owning a home. I'm easily worth $300k more than I would be if I didn't own my home. I actually have $1500 more dollars a month to invest right now, vs if I was renting my exact same home. His granny example is REDICULOUS as owning her own home is the only reason my grandmother had a home in her 90s.
Absolutely true here in Australia as well. Rents are so high due to lack of housing and we are at crisis especially women in their 60s who are at highest risk of homelessness.
he never states its true for all cases, but often it is
Agreed
I travel for work, am a stock investor and move several times a year. I need a house?
Yep. I am not good with numbers but renting in South Africa for me with 3 kids is not sustainable. I choose to own a house ro raise kids, and at the end have a house not owing, and when I can't be employed no more, my kids have a home. Unlike being kicked out of a house with kids and having no where to go.
I bought a townhouse in 2018, it's worth $100k more than when I bought it, and I'm about to sell it in a couple months. Feels like real money to me.
Are you sure you will be able to sell it in this economy?

Great job getting in at the right time. Get out while the getting good...... timing is everything.
Then what ?
This podcast has started a burning in my stomach that made me extremely excited to get my finances in place!!!
Nice video bro. Always thought the "buy a house" crowd was overlooking things. Thanks for laying it out here.
I didn't believe I was going to listen through this 1hour 38minutes and 21seconds video to the end! Its really interesting to have these types of conversation at least once every week, because financial literacy is the the true bone of existence with every other thing fleshing it up. Thanks for sharing...
I remember in 2007 when I was working in real estate seeing people buy homes new from builders with the intention of selling before close of escrow to a new buyer for profit. The crash was so brutal and fast that I remember seeing a lot of these units foreclosed on with the builder plastic still on the carpet.
Most people find it difficult to handle a fall since they are used to bull markets, but if you know where to look and how to maneuver, you can make a size-able profit. Depending on how you intend to enter and exit, yes.
