wanna go to the strip club with me in Vegas?
Would like to but no time no money to join. Have to study for my interview.
bro, where s your coffee?
If there is useful for me please? I have no money, even few cents
As I got older, I couldn't think of things to spend money on that I would make me happy. So I just stopped earning, because what was the point in working this job that I hated if all I was doing was trading my time for money and I didn't even know what to spend the money on. So I just retired early. And I found that the thing I really enjoyed doing was... nothing!
hahahah damn
You Got it all wrong...
Same here
Well retiring early is a luxury not all of us have
Based
My wife worked in safety deposits. She recalled opening one after a customer had died leaving no dependents. He was someone who always dressed poorly and always helped himself to the freebies. The box contained over $200K in cash.
Where does the money go?
Sadly, this probably happens every day somewhere. I've seen people die with cash, real estate, etc. with no known heirs. If no blood relatives come forward within a certain time frame, the government simply takes over. Crazy but true.
@@artsmart Depression era mentality. Worked hard for money itself, not for what money can buy.
It probably they focus themselves and careless about people around. They die rich without having anyone who really love them. They probably push all those people out of their lives. My brother family is like that. They are super saver. they would never spend 5 minutes helping another person including family. After 30 years of hoping my brother selfishness improved over time, I gave up and stay away.
@@moma8518 The government will take everything if they can't find a legal heir. Its called dying intestate.
Nothing wrong with maintaining balance. Enjoy life and save money when you can.
No one said maintaining balance was wrong. That's a strawman you created.
He said that in the title as clickbait. The reality is that if he said it’s not all bad in the video. However, if the words are less extreme sounding in the title, then the video is generally less visible. I am ready to explain how clickbait works on KZhead if you want. #kaosnova
@@KaosNova2 he just said that HE isn't saving money.
I've kind of hit this point. I'm 29 and have aggressively saved/paid down debt. With $13k in RRSP, $4k in stocks, $4k in cash, my work pension, no debt, and inheritance on the way. While I still continue to save $50 into RRSP and $20 in pension each pay, everything after my bills is quality of life. I feel wealthy because I could afford anything I could realistically want and everyone around me it seems is always squeezing every penny. I feel somewhat privileged to be in this position but after X years of the sacrifice at this point...there's no guilt in indulging. We're all going to die.
Same here no kids either I’m really just starting to wonder that’s why I’m here lol I day trade an I have 60k in my bank account and couple thousand in my trading account..take alot of trips an I don’t need that much to take a trip so I always ask myself what I’m really saving for I’m starting to get to tight put more into stocks …think I might
So true man. So many money hoarders die without ever enjoying a single penny for themselves.
So saving for a down payment on something or for a medical emergency is hoarding or no? Because saving isn’t bad by default
@@ronswanson1410 Saving money is good for emergencies, but I think this video is mostly for people that have themselves established. It's not for poor people living pay check to paycheck I think.
However so many hoarders enjoy the act of hoarding itself and what they hoard is just a side benefit or byproduct.
@@ronswanson1410 NO.. you're missing the point of the video and the comment you replied to. Purposeful saving is different than hoarding.
But they have the life long satisfaction that if they need it they have it. I live like that right now.
“The things you own end up owning you”. Very true. Thank you for another great, insightful video Tech Lead!
Its from fight club...
@@moviesynopsis001 The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club!
Very powerful. Ive been saying this for years. I create memories. Ive seen people save their whole life not spending a dime and then drop dead. All my bills are paid and i have some money stashed for emergencies but i don't hoard money. I was chasing that and no matter how much i had saved it wasn't enough.
When you invest you're buying a day you don't have to work, don't just save but invest

You are right sir is obvious alot of people remain poor due to ignorance

Stocks are good but crypto is better
Interesting to see how things are seen by someone who has already “made it”. 👏👏
I don't think totally saving all your money as the best idea,, I think it's better to spend your money wisely on things that retain their value and if you're good at it you can buy things that increase in value over time. But what would I know I have not "made it" I'm still trying to grow capital
@@adamhearts9195 i’m not saying that I think people should put all their money in the bank to save it. Investing in things that go up in value is definitely a key. Just having dollars in the bank that are being inflated away is a bad idea. I’m just saying that he’s on a different side of the equation from where I’m at, and that it’s interesting to see how he sees things.
@@danno5645 yeah I had to do a double-take when he said that making money is easier than spending it I think we're the words. What I've been doing the past so was Finding hobbies that I'm interested in, that way I could engage in a hobby while not going broke for example I was really into car audio and if I came across a deal on a good subwoofer or amplifier I would buy it and use it,, knowing that it's going to hold its value and I can get what I paid for it. Then it was computer graphics cards late last year,, it felt great buying expensive things to satisfy that itch and I made a couple hundred bucks reselling them. Now it's buying guns and ammo, I just shop around for good deals and spend the money on it and I don't have to worry too much about the money never returning. Compared to buying a $1,000 smartphone that will be worth less than half the value in 12 months etc, designer clothing
agreed. i just worry about money all day everyday. if I'll have enough to last me till i die. so i dont dare spend anything beyond necessity
@@fredericknewman5398 if you have to worry about money all day everyday,, that sounds like a terrible way to live life
Dude don't quit KZhead.you are so useful and educative.we want to learn from you and more so take necessary steps for growth.
I quit my job in 2006 because i value my free time over money. People thought I was crazy. Now people are realizing I had it right and they wish they could leave their crappy jobs like I already did a long time ago. I'm far from rich but i have all my basic needs met and no boss telling me what to do. It pisses women off because they want me to be a workhorse and their provider. They try to guilt trip me and make me feel bad for not working. I know deep down they and many other people are jealous and wish they could quit their jobs too. Oh well, that's what they get for valuing money over freedom and not being a risk taker like me 🤷♂️
Exactly 😂! Happens to me 2. I'm free 24/7 zero 9 to 5 job since 2008. In excellent health condition at 51, my only son 20 independent now, I'm glad I never wanted to get married 😂! F THAT GARBAGE
Woah woah woah hold on fellas before u go how did u just quit ur job? How do you make money now? Or do you not do that anymore?
getting out of the rat race saves lives literally. the hunger for $ has gone over my head as to why we need it so darn badly.
@@reahtoni8069 everyone says get out of the rat race. Not hearing a lot of the HOW's.
@@samuelbeatsminecraft2049 i worked for 25 yrs from teenage until now i’m 44. how i freed myself was i let go of the love for things and worldly stuff. like education and making $. i started realizing money is not alive it’s a frequency we can’t not hold onto. like running water. so money comes and goes. it’s main purpose was for trading and exchange. now the purpose has changed to getting more holding onto more and wanting more. so by letting go of the more. i have learned that i’m the one in control over currency. that’s the trick is make money work for you. not us working for $
I agree with you on some part but I am glad I was disciplined in saving up money. Now I am able to leave my job to build my business full-time. I am watching my expenses so that I can stretch my saving for as long as possible.
That's the way to go. If you save money just for saving money, you lose due to inflation from government spending. But if you use that money to make an asset like your business, then you get way more value than just saving or self-indulgence.
I envy you.
He isnt saying what you did is bad. He is saying hoarding money and being cheap your whole life just to die with millions in the bank you never enjoyed is dumb My coworker is like this. Super cheap. Drives beat up car with window missing and door slammed in. Rarely eats out. Lunch every day is last nights leftovers. Its been 10 years since he ate lunch at restaurant he paid for. Lives in small house in very cheap area. But makes definitely over $300k probably $500k a year and has many millions saved. And keeps working until retirement
This viewpoint was very very valuable, it takes a certain level of success to realize what you have
:.my dad worked as engineer..now recently retired..living off pension and stock%..but reality is they cant afford to pay all these boomers pensions..they needed a killswitch..literally.. :.they tricked..scared my guilible woke family into 💉..dad got blood clots and he's gone any day now..its not natural causes..they hate us and dont wanna pay us..rather dep0p us
More specifically, It takes the techlead level success.

Money management is pretty easy (but a lot of people screw that up anyways) Life management on the other hand, most people are gonna need to sort that out for themselves. It takes a good deal of reflection and thinking to really figure out what you want out of life and how much you want to put into it to get it. It's the little things in life that you do every day that's ultimately the most important, but it's also something a lot of people ignore. Most people sleep every day of their lives, but some have miserable sleep; they don't invest in getting that good night's rest. You'd think something that you spend a third of your life doing you'd pay a lot of attention to, but most people completely ignore it.
The most important in life is probably deciding whether you like to set a framework/paradigm shift or just live life as it is and enjoy every bump along the way.. people so fixated on life earning money and when die money can help their child but they forget themselves.. you helping others is also self needs to feel good
so true
Thank you for the gift of this wisdom. Truly thought provoking and interesting 🤔
It is really good to see you back on TechLead show. Looks like you do the thing you enjoy instead of grinding crypto content. Looking forward to hearing more of the TechLead wisdom 🙂💚
I agree. But you need to reach a more sustainable point to them be able to spend it. So saving at first is best but not for too long to then live better. Great video!
I always say there are 3 layers of wealth. Wealth that's predicated upon society (stocks, real estate, etc.) Wealth that's in your physical possession (gold, food, ammo) and physical wealth (being healthy). You need to have all 3.
I like this perspective.
I agree with this. Ultimately the lesson is to diversify. It is not survival of the best, but survival of the fittest. The more adaptable your assets are, the more "fit" you can be in any context, be it peacetime, emergency situations, conflicts, or economic opportunities.
All the stuff you mentioned (with the exception of health) is ALL riches. WEALTH is peace, joy, a sound mind, contentment, health, talents/abilities, relationships, etc.
I'd say 4 is mental wealth, being happy. You can have all the above but if you're depressed and locked in a bad marriage or went thru bitter divorce and you're just totally depressed tons of money and assets and even health won't make you happy
Don’t forget about spiritual health
Thank you for a great presentation !
Spend money on your health! Best investment above all! Then you have it all IF you share your life with someone you love and respect! I have gave to people that built there lives better… I have that every day to appreciate it warms my heart-
Great videos and thoroughly enjoying your perspectives. Thanks for sharing.
nice episode, I agree with many points that you’ve made
Interesting take... "Not everyone gets to play the game."
Your videos are always interesting, and full of insight.
I literally just found your videos today. Your insights have given me a lot of peace in the last couple hours. You're very wise.
Nice one TL. Keep up the good work
I like contents like this... I am happy you are going back to your old self. You gave me a whole new perspective on life as usual. Keep making contents like this and I will be a little less upset everyday at you for making me loose alot of money from million token which I bought at 150
Amazing message. Shared 😀
Pure gold. Again. Thank you, Techlead!
I actually needed that 💯💪🏿thx
Actually bang on friend and the saddest thing of all is that few watching will do more than pay lip service to the idea, even though they can see the truth of what you say. Incidentally, I watch your amusing and entertaining videos and wonder that you're not doing them from a nice yacht somewhere in the Caribbean?
The blacksmith in the game analogy is genius.
Absolutely, with the inflation we're going through this year, people are losing massive portions of their savings. If the inflation is actually 15% like some other sources are saying, then people investing have gone back two years on average (assuming 7% yearly growth). I'm not a financial advisor, though I'd put my money into assets if I were you. That's pretty much the only way to combat the government's atrocious hidden tax.
Not some other sources. Those sources used the older CPI metrics to measure inflation, before the CPI was manipulated to downplay inflation.
If you watch the price of high quality manufactured goods, inflation has always been around 10%, maybe not quite 10% but 8% at the absolute minimum. Post 2020 there isn't any investment portfolio anywhere that can keep pace.
@dznuts123 or just look at your own expenses. Groceries are way up. Gas is way up. Rent is way up. You dont need the govt to tell you inflation is a hell of a lot higher than the mid single digits they are reporting
What is the solution for us ? Spend all money and be broke ? It’s a difficult scenario
Tech Lead content has gotten amazing. I want to give this guy a hug. Thank you for reminding me and others of what is important. May God Bless you!
I stopped having a savings account some 35 years ago when the IRS started taxing savings interest. Right now the only thing I do is invest in durable heavy equipment Goods which I can always resell years later when I need cash or to convert it to something else.
This is great stuff for people to hear, reflect upon and so something about. I'm out of the rat race 2 in months from today and am going to dam well enjoy whatever is in my pot..... simple things, things that make me (and others) happy.... the things that bring joy, comfort and peace. Cheers all.
if ppl knew the rat race is so far from actually reaching the end. the entire world would actually grow in ways we never thot possible. we need to reset our entire existence
Thanks for dishing out content my guy. Mad respect.. coming from a future billionaire myself.
You’re gonna be broke af listening to a cryptoscamming sociopath haha gl…
You impress me more any more - not just since this video You're speaking your truth and give food for thought Sharp mind - thank you
I loved this video and as a person who operates with a mentality of abundance I totally understand your POV. I love ENJOYING life, travelling, eating gourmet food etc, the downside to this, people around you become alienated, they say, hey! we're richer, way richer than you, how come you get to do all these things and we don't. Your message was on point, you can save but the second you want to cash out is so uncertain.
This is the 2nd time Ive been challenged w/ this philosophy & almost rolled my eyes the moment I read it but I remembered that the first time I heard it was from you & also remember that you always have a funny deep intellectual spin on things & sure enough this video blew my mind! AMAZING points made that few people stop to consider & great examples BTW. I guess the best way to sum it up is that one should strive to find a balance between making good investments to build & sustain money while also seeking good investments to spend & enjoy life while life can be enjoyed. For example, being rich during World War 3 will not be fun for anyone & even if everybody else is poor unlike us, they will only turn on us, the rich, seeking to target us as their source for future provision. To some degree we are all in this mortal ship together & should it sink, we all go down. Better to enjoy the food & manage the savings on the ship than to horde it even from oneself only for the ship to sink w/ nobody on board able to enjoy it as treasure hunters who sunk the ship later collect it from our skeletal remains thankful that we foolishly collected & "saved it all for them".
Damn dude. True that! That is scary profound the way you said that!
TechLead intelligence and understanding is on another level! Info is so true, in not saving shit anymore!
Saving is a good mindset for the young, but it's a difficult habit to break as you get older and transition into the spending stage at the end of your life. Barring getting run down by a Lamborghini that is.
yeah spending money in healthcare and offspring, when is your life
I agree. Saving is important at a base level. Buying a home. Having an emergency fund. Making sure you don't retire broke. But once you reach that baseline, your time becomes more valuable than hoarding money.
This is really a good vid my dear tech lead
thank you for the great content
This is eye opener to me. Techlead you should make a book about this
That little Milliontoken advertisement in Google Sheets was clever, nice one.
This youtuber a legend , he deserve millions of views on each video !
good video thanks
everytime I try to dose out, Techlead wakes me up. thanks for your advice
Spilling out the truth 💯
I love watching your video!
Absolutely true!!! Nowadays I feel the same. I dont feel like most of the things are worth the spending as I get older. I do like to buy gifts for friends from time to time and paying for meals etc... it brings joy to people and I feel happy... I will save money because its not worth spending.
As someone who has found some sense of financial freedom, I somewhat agree. This is why I am not interested in financial assets that fail to produce or have the potential to produce positive cash flow because without cash flow, someone can become asset rich and cash poor, which is a major inconvenience for daily life. As for encouraging more lax spending habits, I think this is something that should be earned as a consequence of some financial security because it is an absolute fact that most people are typically awful at allocating their financial resources and this is why saving or investing never becomes a problem for them, like it has for you.
My mother used to always tell me, there’s no pockets in shrouds, you can’t spend it when your dead. Given everything that’s happened over the last two years I cannot shake the feeling of uncertainty of the economy and that’s why I can’t stop saving and investing because I’m just thinking what’s the next big world event gonna be tomorrow, next week, next year.
that’s a lot of thinking. and worrying. i hope it serves you well.?
Maybe you should convince some Japanese guy to make a video game or anime about being a blacksmith in a fantasy setting and some of the perks that go with it. I imagine that a lack of blacksmiths would be really bad for a town because of farming, adventuring, and war-waging reasons, so the blacksmith is probably loved by his community, at least. His job is also vital to any local iron-manufacturing in the area. As he ages, he can teach new people how to blacksmith, and he and his students can admire the handiwork of his stuff all over town. He is probably one of the tougher guys in the local militia and he at least knows his way around a sword because he probably made his own. He probably eats enough food and his job is physically demanding enough for him to fight reasonably well in a defensive unit. The adventurer, on the other hand, gets drunk everytime he comes across an inn and his party buys up all the rooms, he probably buys up all of the produce and good supplies and then takes the stuff out of town and creates actual scarcity, he probably sleeps with all of the wenches and creates a bunch of unfortunate, misguided bastards, and he may or may not create problems wherever he goes and he may or may not be a good person. He might also save everyone sometimes. He probably eats well sometimes, but also is in more positions where he could end up starving and being hunted for by goblins or Florida men or whatever... Maybe me leaving this comment is more of a "peasant" thing to do. MAybe you making videos is more of a "m'lord" thing to do. I actually think this. You are a cut above the rest in some ways and if you were to be part of the council of my fantasy village and I was the peasant with a pitchfork and a slack-jaw, things would probably be better off than the reverse. Consider also, though, that your life is inevitably more stressful. Your video might be something that you watch later and enjoy more... or it might be some source of stress. By contrast, my comment will be something that I forget about in about 20 minutes, but I can also even see the perks of it. At least I am getting practice with typing and since I have a standing desk, my legs get better at holding me up, and I am enjoying myself. But again... you'll enjoy your thing over and over again. It's a better investment of your time in total, but mine is quicker, easier, and a more quantity over quality way to communicate. I think the world needs both adventurer types and blacksmith types, so I guess we agree. I forget what I was trying to say now. I've been drinking.
Thank you for this video man

I enjoyed the video immensely and I'm beyond pleased that you covered the scarcity mindset. THAT is what is preventing most people from achieving anything.
isnt it interesting how scarcity mindset goes hand in hand with both fiancial status and job prospects. for example, you dont make enough money so you save everything you can but you are afraid of applying to better jobs in/out of your field because you dont think anyone will hire you so you dont even try. now you talk yourself into being content with the job you have (even though you are not) and start viewing money as solely as a tool for survival and not a multipurpose tool that can be used to enjoy things. its a vicious cycle.
The NPC part is brilliant

This was a nice video. Well done. I always say you have only one live and a somewhat set amount of time, so you have to use that time, it's way more important than any savings in the world. I remember when I was 20 years old and bought an airline ticket to fly to New York and my friend said, "I will do that when I am retired". I said "What? You do not even know if you are still alive at that time, so why wait and save?"... 10 years later I actually invited him to New York and we were on a road trip from New York to Chicago. What a great time. However, that was the only time he left his home country whereas I traveled, lived and worked in many places around the world, learning different cultures and enjoying live.

Sure. But don't get people confused. JUST spending money enjoyng life isn't the answer too. Saving and investing money should be a habit for the young fellas. When you grow older stash that money. Then, you can cash out and enjoy a lifestyle that matches the hard work you've put in.
BALANCE
@@supernova82 I didn't mean older like old in your 40s. But your late 20s early 30s. Here you can moderately enjoy the wealth you've been accumulating over the past decade.
@@supernova82 don't try to live a lavish life if you're not rich in your youth. Accept that you will remain the 'common man' and save/invest for a comfortable retirement so you don't end up homeless/hungry when you're unable to physically work. No-one will hire you either at 70
This man's videos are impossible to look away from. I go down the start of every bit fully biting and then he veers to basically just spewing garbage (as a millionaire). Well done TechLead, you definitely have figured out how to ramble in a mostly incoherent manner yet make it impossible to look away. Proper KZhead.
I agree you should take a big break saving and also enjoy life and not feel like you’re struggling anymore. Cause you not struggling like others. But always save a little eventually.
Saving money is a necessity for poorer people. Not everybody can just buy a house like that
He isn't against that. His point is if you are saving money without any purpose. If you are saving to buy a house, then you are doing what he says is right. If you are just saving money because you want a larger bank account, then it is a waste. The purpose of having money is to have a plan to do something with it to reward your efforts of earning it, otherwise you are just essentially putting in work for nothing.
This is your best self help video to date. Nice one. Beautifully put. Even Jesus scolded the guy who buried his coin
I seriously love your videos. Such good content, really.

Well said !
Well, you said many truths....Indeed having a lot of money and never using it is no different as not having it.... ....HOWEVER, having it, even if it's bits and bytes, will give you priceless peace of mind of knowing you don't need to worry about money. So for example, unexpected (is there any other type?) car repair or even car replacement, replacing a broken computer or electronic equipment or water heater or furnace/AC, buying stuff one needs, buying stuff one is just curious about (something unusual at Costco), being able to buy whatever you want or need at the store (say groceries and toys) without worrying is really comforting and takes away a lot of stress from daily life. Having enough money to not have to worry about insurance (of any type), taxes, expenses, food, utilities, gas, rent/mortgage, school/tuition, and daily life is a huge blessing and should never be taken for granted. So having money saved up, especially if it is substantial, keeps certain (not all) stresses away. This will in turn allow you to do what you like/enjoy or at the very least, not do what you hate or makes you unhappy. Money gives you options. If you don't have money, you have no options. So save more so you have more options.
This is the way I look at having children. I don't want to debit my life to creating a great life for someone else. I want to be free to enjoy my life to the fullest. There is a such a great sacrifice to having kids that most parents find they are actually not willing to make, and so the kids end up being short changed. I could not Short change my child so i opt not to have one. Yes I know children can also bring joy, but I don't think the joy outweighs the pain of the sacrifice.
I know you many Year, But This Is Really Great Video. Ultimate Truth About Life.
Ouch! Very interesting points.
This is why ur ex-wife wanted you to buy a Lambourghini. That said, she doesnt seem like a person who deserved a Lambourghini in any way, so it´s fine you didn´t buy one for her
As with all things, balance is key. Tech lead sounds like he’s going through a mid life crisis
So you're just avoid all his points and make some shit up about him? Wow that's reasonable 🙄
@@EsotericOccultist How did I avoid all his points? I said balance is key. I mean he's showing signs of going through it by talking about blasting funds and living life to the fullest, that's usually what happens during a mid-life crisis.
i think they removed that article. i can not seem to find it ....
Very correct. Out of box thinking. Awesome Are you from Korea
I mean, money is meant for living, not saving.
Precisely!
That's a good insight. As someone with 8 digits of net-worth, I will give you one more: Model your life as a utliity function. Living life gives you utility, working disutility. Put things in perspective. Find work where disutility is not so negative, maybe neutral or even positive. Maximize your positive utility, ideally by positive utility that doesn't bring negative utility with you (like costing a lot of money, or needing a lot of time). Example: I am looking for a place to go surfing. The travel price to get there via airplane is nearly the same everywhere I go, so I ignore the cost of the airplane and only factor in the flight time / required stopovers (which gives me disutility). Then I look for which place has nice girls (maximize utility), an ambience I like (I like having a variety of restaurants to choose from, so no bumfuck surf villages).
I'm not quite there but definitely one benefit I've enjoyed making more in my 30s now than 20s is flights. Before I did discount airlines and layovers to save like $100 or $200. Not anymore. No more red eyes, no more frontier (always delta if possible) and direct flights if available. Now I can afford it and its worth the extra $200 to fly direct on delta at noon vs flying southwest with 2 hours layover at bad time
This makes sense. Makes me feel better about my frivolous spending habits ☺️

I don’t think there is a perfect answer that would apply to everyone at all points of their life regarding how much to save and spend but yeah clearly both extremes of heavy saving or heavy spending would mostly likely be worse choices than having some sort of balance somehwre in between
With some of you videos I disagree but this one so on point ❤
