The important thing to remember is that side hustles often take up so much of your free time that you're basically not even living. That's not much different than the guy who hoards money his entire life while eating only oatmeal and then dies before ever really using it. True wealth would be finding a way to balance securing your future with actually living your life here and now.

Depends on the side hustle… I play music with my band. I don’t have a huge interest in touring full time bc it’s a lot of work but I do love writing and playing music. I also love writing novels and feel fulfilled by this and sell them on the side. If that was full time then yah, I’d be happy with it… some side hustles are just to make money but others are about filling your soul, it’s more of a vocation.

My great uncle was a junk collector. He had the worst house in town. It was an old dump that he never took care of (mental health), and in the back yard he basically had a junk yard. Old cars, piles of scrap metal, coffee cans filled with nuts and bolts. When he died his daughters learned that he at around $7 million..... in a checking account.... Turns out the junk yard was the primary sourcing grounds for local mechanics. Anything he couldn't sell he scrapped. He ate oatmeal and hotdogs for nearly every meal, and never did anything besides work and watch TV. He was the meanest person I ever knew and I didn't really like him. When he died and we learned about all of this my dad just said "That's one way to live, I guess." Point taken.

You will young man you will. I'm absolutely positive about that because you are starting early not only that because you are interested in finance at such a early age.

At the age of 47, I found that my financial "professional" had misappropriated my retirement funds ($250k) and lost it all. Didn't do one thing I said. I had to start over. with zero. I decided to manage my own money, and 12 years later I had 400k saved. Not enough, but hey. Still under the 8 ball, as covid caused a catastrophic loss in my income (I was forced to retire early). I had planned on working another 6 years to get to that million mark. well, life has a way of changing your plans, no? So now I just have to figure it out as always. I will, but it will take some time. Gotta tell ya though, after going from extreme poverty to middle class and back to poverty? I am one disgruntled camper.

The best way to think of it

I get that this is just an example, but if you're going to use a monthly salary/income figure, choose something that represents either the median income or better the income of the folks who desperately need financial help--not the people who already have financial advisors. According to US fed stats, the average salary in 2021 was ~ $50K before taxes. That's already a lot less than $5K per month. And since the vid's title suggests we're dealing with "a low salary," we're looking at something much less than $5K after taxes. Just makes people who don't make near $5K/month after taxes feel this, like most financial advice, won't help them. Add to this exploding housing costs, mandatory insurance premiums now, and college loans and that tiny savings burns up quickly. Too many YT financial vids are geared to people who already have a decent income. Everybody forgets the rest of the population which is growing.

He said he got started when he graduated from high school and got a "gift" from his grandparents of $200K. (!!!) So he invested it in real estate and began a real estate company. Most of us don't have anyone to give us $200K to start. And a lot of these young people my age or younger started when they were living at home and had very low expenses. They could save $500-$1K each month and afford to invest and lose and invest again. That's not the typical US adult. You're also right that switching careers is expensive. If you're living off parents, then you can do it b/c THEY will pay for your survival needs. Again, not most American adults.

Stuff this method. It would be good if you’re doing solely for your kids and their futures

Saving is only really good for short term purchases. Investing in the stock market can be tricky for new investors as the stock market can be temperamental and volatile. Even old time stock market investors can have a huge loss. Mutual funds are a more secure route to go and starting on the S&P 500 with $500 down and $125 a month can get you $2000 on the mutual fund each year. - Making a budget, paying off debt and knowing when your paychecks come in and when your expenses (And how much) go out each month is also very crucial. The more debt you pay off, the more of your money is not going to someone else and staying in your pocket. - Also, look into Mutual Funds that pay dividends. If you have enough money in those, you can live off the interest.

Yeah, on average, regardless of whether its up or down, its best to just invest in an index fund as much as you can for as long as possible, or some rare earth mineral like gold or silver (basically the easiest to obtain and dispose of). The average return rate has always been above 5%, and its almost always outperforms everyone in the long run. This is especially so if you are young. However, if you are older, you may have to think about less risky ones like government bonds or something. If you are in your 30's to 40's, then index funds are your best bet.

Just goes to show that truly anyone can build long term wealth. Great video, Vincent! I enjoy talking about personal finance on my channel as well.

I like how Vincent used a Pikachu Gameboy colour with Pokémon Blue cartridge to calculate the maths lol.

That’s all well and good. He raised a family, bought a house, etc on min wage. You cannot do that now. It’s literally impossible. He was also alive during the greatest, most prosperous time. We are not.

That's why most people fail. They always find excuses instead of trying to find opportunities. Also, as Vincent mentioned in the video, he lived through several recessions so saying it was the greatest time doesn't make sense..

You also live in a digital age, unlike him. You have WAY more options and opportunities to make extra income compared to him. Whether it be youtube, selling online classes that you have expertise in, selling tshirts/mugs/etc., doing business on Etsy/eBay/Amazon, etc. I also read those whom were born this millennium will be the richest generation ever. Your mind is your only limit.

@@wrathofgrothendieck I never said it was easy. My mind is my limit, but at least I know this. The original poster made it sound like the time period and the wage were the reasons - I believe the video said the janitor made $22k, which is not minimum wage (current minimum wage is like $7.25, which is maybe $15k/year...I'm going to assume cost of living was adjusted for the janitor's time period). The limitation and obstacles the person listed are all mental. This is the battle most people have to fight and overcome. If they lived in a country or during a time where the options are limited, then that's a different story...at least admit the opportunities are there, but the mental hurdles to financial freedom is all theirs. It's a victim mentality.

@Bonnie Gaither you are correct. Living on $1,800 a month will leave anyone, especially with a family in debt, not in a positive cash flow with money left over to save. Vincent even says there is a minimum amount you can live on. That amount is much higher now when rents have increased by 20% or even higher in some neighborhoods. Of course, IF you have a minimum wage job that has stable hours, you could work 60 - 80 hours at a second min wage job. But most jobs do not allow for that luxury. And just who is taking care of your kids while you work those hours? The myth of just work harder, longer is just that to keep employers from paying a livable wage and while putting their workers on social programs paid by taxpayers. The answer is to increase wages so that anyone working a full-time job can pay their modest living expenses and have something leftover to save. Most people that push the myth, do not have to survive on what they preach CURRENTLY, not years ago, when the equation was very different. People who are in a better financial position should be grateful and not judgmental about those stuck working at the bottom of our society.

Thanks for the reality check. I was slipping for a minute after getting a better paying job. Got to get back onto my side hustles.

i work on 2 engineering job, and save 80% of take home income, and invest. I become millionaire when I was 30

Your videos are art 💗

You missed one key component to becoming a millionaire - longevity. Read, Buffet, and Munger all had one thing in common, they live(d) to a ripe old age. Same with the woman whose story just popped up in my newsfeed. She left several millions to her alma mater after a career as an IRS examiner. The bulk of her wealth didn't accumulate until she was in her nineties, and the stock market was on a roar. Moral of the story: don't die too early, or you will have denied yourself while you were young without being able to enjoy your money.

I turn 18 next month and i’m very excited to start investing. I been watching videos like these to help me understand more about stocks and stuff. Do you guys have any tips for me?

Dollar cost averaging is the way to go IMO. I buy fractional shares of a few different ETFS each week instead of using a savings account. I still keep enough cash liquid to cover rent for 3 months so I don’t have to sell shares in case I can’t work for some reason or if my business is slow. Hope that helps, it works for me.

If it's exciting you're probably doing it wrong. Be slow, well planned, and methodical. Don't even think of trying to put more than a paycheck into Bitcoin or penny stocks. But first you should save a $10,000 emergency fund, and then save even more if you are thinking of going to college or buying a house or car, or having a kid.

I can bet that Warren Buffett has a budget. Telling people to not have a budget is probably the most irresponsible financial advice you can give.

You can never time the market, however you can reallocate your wealth based on the macro cycle

My budgeting Excel spreadsheet is quite simple and is updated once a month. The columns are just: Date | Savings | Investments | Total I don't pay too much attention to how my net worth tracks on a monthly period, but over the course of the long run, it should go up. If it doesn't, something's wrong.
