Newbies need to learn the ropes, know how much risk they can handle and diversify their portfolio. Some folks get help from money experts or do their homework before making investment moves. It's all about being smart with your funds.
Nobody knows anything; You need to create your own process, manage risk, and stick to the plan, through thick or thin, While also continuously learning from mistakes and improving.
Uncertainty... it took me 5 years to stop trying to predict what bout to happen in market based on charts studying, cause you never know. not having a mentor cost me 5 years of pain I learn to go we’re the market is wanting to go and keep it simple with discipline.
My CFA ’Annette Christine Conte’ , 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.
The problem we have is because Most people always taught that " you only need a good job to become rich " . These billionaires are operating on a whole other playbook that many don't even know exists.
It is remarkable how much long term advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be very intelligent.
The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn't depend on government paycheck, especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a time to invest in Stocks, Forex and Digital currencies.
Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others. As an investor, you should've known that by now that nothing beats experience and that's final. Personally I had to reach out to a stock expert for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to $35k, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I'm buying again.
Wealth/Success is dependent on the action or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man who doesn't have an investment and I will tell you how soon he'll go broke. Investment is building a safe haven for the future: with the right choices of investment that has minimum risk and with an Expert guidance, profit and interest should be guaranteed.
Starting early is simply the best way of getting ahead to build wealth , investing remains a priority . I learnt from my last year's experience , I am able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time .
Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.
this is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Sophia Maurine Lanting’ turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
It's sad how difficult things have become in this recessive economy. 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 protect my $450K-worth stock portfolio from decline, but haven't figured which way to go.
Very difficult indeed, but when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. You have to learn and handle. you should hire a CFP to help you diversify your assets to include ETFs/index funds/mutual funds and stocks of companies with consistent cash flows. Don't go for penny stocks. `
Opting for a brokerage Adviser is currently the optimal approach for navigating the market, particularly for those nearing retirement. I've been consulting with a coach for a while, and my portfolio has surged by 300% since 2022
When I see the Alux estimates for my age group, 45-51, then I feel like patting myself on the back. I am doing well, and am at the high end, if not in the top 10%. However, the fact remains that I am single, unmarried, and will die alone and childless. My net worth is concentrated mainly in a rabbit-hutch apartment in a prestigious area of London. Yes, it's in a prestigious area, and billionaires live around me, but I am still stuck in a 1 bedroom apartment. And worst of all, I still don't have my ultimate target dream car, the car I have lived for for the last 35 years. Yes, I do have a rare collectible classic car (that I almost never see, because I am stuck in a small apartment with no garage space), but the dream of my life is still absent. Morale of the story, dollar net worth is not the entire story. Having a new worth of $1 million and living in a big house in rural Vermont, running your own business, is much more valuable than having the same net worth as a wage-slave living in a small apartment in Manhattan or London.
@stephaneaderca7948 this is the balance this video needs. Thanks for sharing. Given how much life has dealt me, it took courage to watch the video; I figured Alux knows better so there.must be something in the video for me.
@@alux Sky-high property prices in cities around the world have skewed the equation. Unless you live in the countryside (and have your own thriving business - there are no well paying job) then having $1 million means almost nothing nowadays. $3-5 million is the new $1 million, at best. Heck, a new "luxury" apartment block around the three sides of my apartment block is in the process of being finished. The "affordable" flats are £1.4 million. The most expensive apartment is £20 million. That's about $1.8 million and $25 million respectively, BTW. No, for that price, you don't even get a parking space for your collector Rolls-Royce or Ferrari. Sadly, unless you live in rural Vermont, or in any other place where property prices haven't gone insane, $1-2 million net worth no longer makes you "rich" in any sense of the word.
@@stephaneaderca7948 Can't agree more!! Moreover, a networth must calculate and quantify the "Freedom" part of the equation for those, who have it, away from the grueling 12 to 14 hours of corporate jobs or even a business, where the business is not running without their direct inputs even after 12 years of running it!!
Been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it's the best time to get started on the market, heard some guy speaking of making over a million dollars from a $300k capital and I'm driven to ask what skillset and strategy can generate such profit??
Avoid impulsive decisions driven by short-term fluctuations. Prioritize patience and a long-term perspective most importantly consider financial advisory for informed buying and selling decisions.
Most people minimize the importance of counsel until their own feelings become overwhelming. A few summers ago, following a protracted divorce, I needed a significant push to keep my firm afloat. I looked for licensed advisors and found someone with the highest qualifications. She has contributed to my reserve increasing from $275k to $850k despite inflation.
How can one confirm a licensed advisor;,? I buy the idea of employing the services of one because finding that balance between saving and living comfortably requires maximum discipline. My goal is retiring or working less than 5 years from now. Pls, how do i get a hold of one?
"Laurelyn Gross Pohlmeier," a well-known authority in this field. I would recommend looking into her credentials more because she has a great deal of expertise and is a great resource for anybody looking for advice on how to navigate the financial market.
Someone said that it's time to be concerned when you start to see individuals shoplifting groceries rather than big-screen televisions, and i agree. Truth is, inflation will never reach 2% ever again, maybe in the next life, but not this one. Anyone purchasing groceries and gasoline is aware that real inflation is much over 10%; they simply lie about it like cheap blankets. In reality, interest rates would be in the 20s because of how high inflation is. But then despite the severe bear market, I am aware of certain investors that continue to earn over $365,000. Wish I could accomplish that.
Very possible! Particularly in this weak market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.
I totally agree, it's been three years and counting, and I've made over 1.7 million by simply following a coach's advice. I was on the sidelines for a while watching, trying to determine the best time to get in, before I came across a coach, recommended by my wife. I was reluctant at first but I went ahead and contacted the coach. As a small reward for my consistency, I went on a trip to the Bahamas in the late summer. haha
@caryishnagardner. My wife and i just had this conversation this morning. This is exactly how we wish to get our finances coordinated ahead of retirement. Can I get access to your advisor?
sure . She's known as a 'Monica Mary Strigle '. One of the finest portfolio managers in the field also widely recognized. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with
I just googled her 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. thank you fr saving me hours of Rschng
I’d be retiring or working less in 5 years, and curious to know how best people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments, I earn around $200k per year but nothing to show for it yet.
Right, I'm quite lucky exposed to personal finance at an early age, started work full time at 19, purchased first home at 28. Going forward, got laid off at 36 amidst covid-outbreak, and immediately consulted an advisor to stay on top. As of today, I'm barely 15% short of my $1m goal after subsequent investments.
@@M.Morgan that's great! retired in my 40s. inherited money from a childless relative, traveled overseas and found a girl almost my age, happily married but only issue is how to grow or preserve our wealth, think your advisor can be of help please?
curiously searched Karen Lynne Chess on the internet, spotted her consulting page at once, and was able to schedule a free call session. Ive seen commentaries about advisors but not one looks this phenomenal
I'm similar to you, just a little younger. I shifted from property to index funds 3 years ago. Can't wait to sell my property, getting annoying with tenant issues. Etfs set and forget
@@lengerer Absolutely I'm trying to sell my last 3 homes and put it all in VGT/SCHD I'm done with tenants, taxes and landlord insurance! Real Estate is for rookies!

I just turned 26. Have about 175k of house equity. Plus 5k in savings plus 50k invested in the stock market. Paid off car worth about 15k. So 245k net worth at 26. Aiming for half a million by 30.

Net worth analysis fails to account for income streams. Two people with the same net worth may be in far different financial shape depending on how much income they receive (SS, pensions, etc.) and how much they spend each month. Net worth analysis fails to account for COLA that affects how far your dollar stretches depending on where you are living. Net worth analysis also fails to account for other living factors. Two people with the same net worth may be in far different social situations depending on where they reside. Two people with the same net worth may be facing much different future prospects based on health outlook. Two people with the same net worth may be facing much different personal outlooks if they have familial problems. Net worth analysis also doesn't account for overcompensation, i.e., accumulated wealth that fails to be spent. Many retirees are so caught up in saving their wealth that they fail to cash in on their hard work. They wait too long before starting to spend their money.
I'm now avoiding new purchases to avoid slipping into a bear trap. However, I'd like to know where the best investment opportunities are during a downturn. My goal is to retire comfortably on around $1.2 million.
Wishing you luck! The key to a happy retirement is to live the life you choose, if you have a certain amount in mind for your retirement, it is only appropriate to work with a knowledgeable advisor to make plans.
I concur that guidance should not be disregarded but rather followed. I remember a few summers ago, not long after my horrible divorce, I was in dire need of advise on investments to keep my head above water. Fortunately, I met someone with grit who greatly assisted me in growing my reserve, which despite inflation has increased from $360k to about seven figures now.
nice gains there! Please share your advisor's info with me. Due to my increased income from work, I'm thinking about investing in stocks and other assets that will enable me to gradually build wealth.
Leah Foster Alderman is the licensed expert I use. Just look up the name. You would discover the necessary information to deal with a correspondence to schedule an appointment.
Wow, I just Googled her whole name and found her platform. Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention, I will definitely get in touch with her.
Taking early notes as to the importance of sound asset diversification and risk management It can’t be overstated. I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $300K for sometime now, I would greatly appreciate any other suggestions.
Yes true, I have been in touch with a financial advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.
I'm very cautious about giving specific recommendations as everyone's situation varies. Consider independent financial advisors like "Sharon Ann Meny" I've worked with her for 9 years and highly recommend her. Check if she meets your criteria.
In uncertain times, how can one outperform with the S&P 500? my money goal of $3m seems far-fetched and just saving is not an option, do I seek a license advisor to help grow my funds, or wait for a favorable economy? I have barely 5 years to retirement.
Very correct, investing is plain-sailing using a well experienced advisor, and at first-hand experience, I've witnessed my investments compound over 280%, since Jan.2020 amid rona-outbreak, summing up nearly $1m as of today.
this is huge! been a fan of asking questions like Socrates, seeking information and handling certain duties to professionals, my $ 100k index has been shortened by 10% due to inflation over the years and I could really use a help at this point

None for now. It's getting harder to predict market trends post covid, the market can go down anytime and eat your whole deposit.. Sadly, 0% rates pushing everyone back into the market.
I mean no disrespect but you are wrong... Believe it or not, the market isn't as bad as some people have made it look... Companies are making record profits... As a beginner investor who knows next to nothing, I have made over $30k net profit in a few months... I was retrenched recently, and I am using these resources to keep body and soul together.
Hi Mr. Anthony, your profit margin is quite impressive for a beginner. Good for you!!!! can you share your spreadsheet or investing journal?? inadvertently, i sold a boatload of my portfolio recently.
I have never drawn up a spreadsheet or trading journal, it's of no relevance to me... I simply follow Kelly Matwick's investing instructions and guidance... You can look her up she's a certified FA.
Tsla has beaten both Apple and Microsoft in 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 5 years and 10 years charts. BTW, kelly Matwick is by far my favorite female advisor because of her honesty.
I'm 26 and currently employed but in the median net-worth. Is it possible to move this to top 10% within the next next two years. To do this I have to gain close to 100k
I am in the top 10 of my age group and I literally got there in same time, so it's very possible. These tips should help. 1. Have multiple streams of income, especially passive income... It's harder to grow income when it's coming from just a source. . 2. Invest wisely... Money sitting in the bank does not grow, money not invested well is a waste. 3. Work harder and smarter, you don't improve without putting in work...
Could be anything, real estates, stocks, bonds, anything... Just make sure you just don't buy anything but something you've looked into properly and objectively... If you don't have the time, you could use an F.A or realtor or any expert there... For me, it was stocks because it was the cheapest to get into. There are more options these days...
Great to not have debt, but time is ticking on having kids though... Pregnancies after age 34 are considered geriatric pregnancies which comes with a much higher chance of complications.
@@chrism.728 Is whenever God wants me to have kids. I'm not rushing or worrying about it. If it happens great and if it doesn't happen is okay too. Either way this world is It's getting worse by the minute, so sometimes it is a blessing not to have kids. Thank you for your concern.
*Amazing video, you work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K into trading from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires*
Hello , I am very interested. As you know, there are tons of investments out there and without solid knowledge, I can't decide what is best. Can you explain further how you invest and earn?
Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Lisa Annette Robinson, has been an amazing experience.
I'm favoured, $90K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to Ms Lisa Annette 😊🎉

Amazing content! I have been following your videos for sometime now, consistently kicking down Wall Street doors for two years now, I have over $320k in stocks. Currently, my portfolio is down by 15%. Wondering if they're any short term opportunities I can invest in.
I agree that there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such executions are usually carried out by investment experts or advisors with experience.
Reason I decided to work closely with an brokerage-adviser ever since the market got really tensed and the pressure became so much(I should be retiring in 17months) so I've had an brokerage-adviser guide me through the chaos, its been 9months and counting and I've made approx. 650K net from all of my holdings.
@@hunter-bourke21bravo! I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to unmeasurable progress, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
*Izella Annette Anderson* 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.
I am going to look her up, I have about $181k i want to start with, might be small but it's better than nothing though. Since the 08 crash is playing out again.
Love your content. For this video, I haven’t watched it all unlike all the other videos that I always watch till then end. Comparing yourself to others is not a recipe for mental well being. This is the most depressing video I have watched in a long time. I guess what is painful is the fact that it tells you that you are not ok if you do not fit in the category. Anyway, every other videos on this channel are gems for me. I might watch it till the end after taking a few anti depressants 😂😂😂
I think investors should always put their cash to work, especially In 2024, we'll start to see more market diversification. I'm hoping to invest about $350k of my savings in stocks against next year. Hope to make millions in 2024
Yes true, I have been in touch with a brokerage Advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.
De-risk your portfolios, shore up your core holdings, and take some profits while balancing your portfolio allocations. I have been investing for 8 years, 5 with a CFA, I've achieved a 10x return compared to DIY efforts, totaling nearly $2m ROI. My best yet.
Stacy Lynn Staples is who I work with. Have worked with her for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look her up.
Stacy sure knows her onions in this industry, from her intimidating profile which I went through, on her web home page. I started off last year tailoring a colleague's tradin strategies but it didn't pan out well. Hopeful that Kathleen will attend to my message.
I had a job since I was 16 and as soon as I turned 18 started investing. I put 2k that I had saved up into Tesla shares back in 2019 and they had a crazy run in 2020 which turned my 2k into 8k. I cashed out and redistributed my earnings in other investments and a few months after that I heavily got into crypto. I made it my goal to keep at least 1k in my savings account for emergency purposes and all other money I make (aside from bill money) to be invested consistently into the stock market and crypto. I reached a peak net worth of 64k back in 2021 at the age of 20. Since I didn't cash everything out at the top the bear market came around and now I'm sitting at like 45k net worth at 23. Good news is the next bull market is happening now and by the end my portfolio should quadruple since I have significantly more money in the markets than I did last bull market. When you play the long game you always win
I really feel grateful to be born in a third world country in a rich family! It has given me a great headstart and I am also able to take risks without thinking much as my family is always backing me up. This type of treatment is only possible in 3rd world countries as 1st world country parents want their kids to be "independent" I support that, but I really think it's not a great idea to let your kids fear risk
The numbers for 25 onwards (at least mid to high end) seem scary low for many metropolitan or city areas. Maybe is phenomenal for other parts (referring to living in the US) but find that concerning so as to weather periods of unemployment, emergencies or realistically retire. Hopefully one offsets that with rather high income(s) or ridiculously low cost of living.
At age 16 to 21, you are still studying unless you are working and studying at the same time and still living with your parents. And you are saving some of your allowance not to mention that your parents are well off and are generous enough in giving you extra money.
*Wow😁, it's crazy how some people can become multimillionaires by investing just $10K in trading within a few months, while others have to work for 40 years to reach $1M in retirement savings. The power of smart investing, right?*
That's true. a lot of people today have been having a ton of disappointments in forex and crypto trading in light of helpless direction and awful specialists
I was born at the year of 1999, my net worth is 100k+, I still constantly felt anxious about my future. I worked and saved too hard and I'm still worried 😢.
@codingiscreativity been working since 2018, didn't go college, saved 70% of all my income, didn't impress nobody. Hope I saved more but I need to make more I guess
The goal is to be debt free and have enough, to not worry about money that much. There is no magic number, just when you stop worrying about money, that's when you are doing good. Most people who retire, end up GAINING net worth in retirement. There are a lot of people that want you to invest and tell you, you need $2 million dollars. It's all non sense. If you are debt free and own your home, you are golden. If you get sick and need to be in a home, doesn't matter how much you saved, because it will all be gone. Better to be broke at that point and get state aid.
Nearly 100 percent of Indians know what their net worth is. But they severely underestimate it. They know and measure real estate value, cash in bank and mutual funds, stocks, bonds etc. They leave out gold, cars and sometimes insurance policies.
Happy to see that my net worth is higher then the median for my age group (41-45). And I hope to be in the 10% by 65. Don't have to be golden by that age, but the top 10% should be manageable🤞🤞🤞
You know what Alux should have done? Do NOT count your primary residence as part of your net worth then tell me how they do. Your primary home is for you to live it and its not that liquid. Another point I want to make it is are you a traditional 401k/IRA or a Savings+Roth 401k/IRA millionaire? Remember, you owe Uncle Sam a piece of that huge pie if you go a spending spree on the former when you retire. I would rather be a $300k home+$2.2 million Roth 401k/IRA millionaire than a $1.2 mil home + $1.3 million traditional 401k millionaire.
Wrong measure here. Of course, selling all you assets would give you part of your total wealth. But, it doesn't account for various pensions that are permanent. Social Security, Government pensions, and private pensions that go on until you and your spouse pass away also account for wealth. For that you would need to calculate what amount of money would be put in a savings account and return the income you receive from those pensions without diminishing the fund.
Yes, you're supposed to pay those off and get on with your life. The purpose of the debt in the first place is to increase your salary after you graduate.
I don’t want to be rude nor especially want to ruin future videos for the community here on TH-cam but would like the answer of why would I want to pay for a subscription of an app if I eventually see the content here for free? Alux?
They describe how to calculate your net worth incorrectly in the beginning of this video. The correct way is below: “Your net worth is the value of all of your assets, minus the total of all of your liabilities. Put another way, it is what you own minus what you owe.”
Yeah I was buffoonish when I was in my early 20s. I was making more money than my friends, cause that was around 2014, I was 18 an hour working 30 hours a week. Which felt good, but I honestly ended up in jail a few times for being foolish and the hospital too. But around 24 I started changing my life. And right now I have a blog that’s getting lots of views and I’m expecting to make money from the blog this coming year, God willingly it will work.
ALUX, these numbers are astronomical for southern Europeans. Can you make a video strictly about Europeans or even better southern Europeans? Your numbers are still skewed due to US and Canada. Just to give you an idea: average net salary 1.000 euros if you are between the ages of 30 and 40
I know and track my net worth regularly; I also track my change in market value (and averages for monthly, annually, YoY and going back several years) in both dollars and % in each account, and in the aggregate of all my accounts. I also know where, how, and I why it changes, such as growth, balanced and income/value. I'm on track to retire early in 1-2 years, and will be able to live on ~ 10% of my annual change in market value from dividend income only.
This is fun! So, I’m 40 yr old this year - my net worth is about $550k without the yearly take-home pay from work which is in the low 6 figures. Curious to know if I qualify to be in the top 10% of my age bracket.😅
Your primary home isnt an asset. Its a store of value for most. Assets put money in your pocket constantly. Home cost you and most people do good to break even after all costs calculated. Interest, taxes, repairs and renovation, insurance and property maintenance.
@@ocox8659 but most of them aint like that getting 20's and 40's here and there. c'mon be real most of them of dumb ass fuck and get cuaght up i did forsure, smoking thoe.
Basically your net worth, is your house lol. That is the main reason, why as people age, they increase their net worth. Of course there is interest compounding in 401Ks etc.. But those median numbers, are almost exactly what a house would be worth as you paid it off and it increased in value. I'd like to see the median, with houses taken out.
@@lung21 Most people's biggest addition to their net worth is the property they own. Not everyone, but the majority. That's one big reason you see the net worth go up with age, as their house/property appreciates and they pay the or mortgage down.
@@micker9830 agree, but this is wrong. The house for self use should not be included. The house may increases from 300k to 600k. However, we still need to buy the house again after we sell it. I also don’t count 401k as well, but this is only my personal reason. I don’t think I will be able to last to retirement age. 401k money is only for my family.
@@lung21 Not true. Many people sell their house in retirement and just rent a condo or apartment. Also that equity in the house can be left to your children, after you die and they sell the house. It adds to what you are worth. You can't say a guy who rents and a guy who owns a paid for $600k home, have the same net worth.
@@micker9830 that’s why I said when u are self use dont count it. The way I am doing will be safer because everyone should have a safe margin to handle the unexpected situation. If u moved out, this is no self use anymore. I invested on condos and rent the place out. I only count that one as my net worth. I saw too many people over estimate their net worth. And end up they don’t have enough of money. The matter is how much money that u can easily to control.

These are scary times because the economy is in such dire shape. I am in the Top 10% for my age group (62) and am still living very modestly, as I fear running out of money before I die.

I was over range in 16-21 but not in top 10% I was below median but in range 21-25 25-31 below range Since 31 negative net worth, but moved right direction last 14 months. I was below range

Newbies need to learn the ropes, know how much risk they can handle and diversify their portfolio. Some folks get help from money experts or do their homework before making investment moves. It's all about being smart with your funds.
Nobody knows anything; You need to create your own process, manage risk, and stick to the plan, through thick or thin, While also continuously learning from mistakes and improving.
Uncertainty... it took me 5 years to stop trying to predict what bout to happen in market based on charts studying, cause you never know. not having a mentor cost me 5 years of pain I learn to go we’re the market is wanting to go and keep it simple with discipline.
Could you kindly elaborate on the advisor's background and qualifications?
My CFA ’Annette Christine Conte’ , 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.
Just ran an online search on her name and came across her websiite; pretty well educated. thank you for sharing.
The problem we have is because Most people always taught that " you only need a good job to become rich " . These billionaires are operating on a whole other playbook that many don't even know exists.
Money invested is far better than money saved , when you invest it gives you the opportunity to increase your financial worth.
It is remarkable how much long term
advantage people like us have gotten by trying to be consistently not stupid,
instead of trying to be very intelligent.
The wisest thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that doesn't depend on government paycheck, especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a time to invest in Stocks, Forex and Digital currencies.
Many individuals report success in investing in stocks,fx, yet I continue to struggle.Can somebody help me out or advise me on what to do?
Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others. As an investor, you should've known that by now that nothing beats experience and that's final. Personally I had to reach out to a stock expert for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to $35k, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I'm buying again.
Wealth/Success is dependent on the action or steps you take to achieve it. Show me a man who doesn't have an investment and I will tell you how soon he'll go broke. Investment is building a safe haven for the future: with the right choices of investment that has minimum risk and with an Expert guidance, profit and interest should be guaranteed.
Starting early is simply the best way of getting ahead to build wealth , investing remains a priority . I learnt from my last year's experience , I am able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time .
Exactly ! That's my major concern and what kind of profitable business or investment can someone do with the current rise in economic downturn.
Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.
this is definitely considerable! think you could suggest any professional/advisors i can get on the phone with? i'm in dire need of proper portfolio allocation
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Sophia Maurine Lanting’ turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
It's sad how difficult things have become in this recessive economy. 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 protect my $450K-worth stock portfolio from decline, but haven't figured which way to go.
Very difficult indeed, but when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. You have to learn and handle. you should hire a CFP to help you diversify your assets to include ETFs/index funds/mutual funds and stocks of companies with consistent cash flows. Don't go for penny stocks. `
Opting for a brokerage Adviser is currently the optimal approach for navigating the market, particularly for those nearing retirement. I've been consulting with a coach for a while, and my portfolio has surged by 300% since 2022
I could really use the expertise of this advsors.
KATHLEEN CHERYL CONSTANTZ is a hot topic even among financial elitist in California. Just browse, you’d find her, thank me later.
I just curiously looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an email shortly.
When I see the Alux estimates for my age group, 45-51, then I feel like patting myself on the back. I am doing well, and am at the high end, if not in the top 10%.
However, the fact remains that I am single, unmarried, and will die alone and childless. My net worth is concentrated mainly in a rabbit-hutch apartment in a prestigious area of London. Yes, it's in a prestigious area, and billionaires live around me, but I am still stuck in a 1 bedroom apartment. And worst of all, I still don't have my ultimate target dream car, the car I have lived for for the last 35 years. Yes, I do have a rare collectible classic car (that I almost never see, because I am stuck in a small apartment with no garage space), but the dream of my life is still absent.
Morale of the story, dollar net worth is not the entire story. Having a new worth of $1 million and living in a big house in rural Vermont, running your own business, is much more valuable than having the same net worth as a wage-slave living in a small apartment in Manhattan or London.
Proof that you can be high net worth and still be “poor”
@stephaneaderca7948 this is the balance this video needs. Thanks for sharing. Given how much life has dealt me, it took courage to watch the video; I figured Alux knows better so there.must be something in the video for me.
@@alux Sky-high property prices in cities around the world have skewed the equation. Unless you live in the countryside (and have your own thriving business - there are no well paying job) then having $1 million means almost nothing nowadays. $3-5 million is the new $1 million, at best.
Heck, a new "luxury" apartment block around the three sides of my apartment block is in the process of being finished. The "affordable" flats are £1.4 million. The most expensive apartment is £20 million. That's about $1.8 million and $25 million respectively, BTW. No, for that price, you don't even get a parking space for your collector Rolls-Royce or Ferrari.
Sadly, unless you live in rural Vermont, or in any other place where property prices haven't gone insane, $1-2 million net worth no longer makes you "rich" in any sense of the word.
@@stephaneaderca7948 Can't agree more!! Moreover, a networth must calculate and quantify the "Freedom" part of the equation for those, who have it, away from the grueling 12 to 14 hours of corporate jobs or even a business, where the business is not running without their direct inputs even after 12 years of running it!!
@@stephaneaderca7948 hello 20 year old here i wouldnt say nothing..... but yh its definitely not real money
Been quite unsure about investing in this current market and at the same time I feel it's the best time to get started on the market, heard some guy speaking of making over a million dollars from a $300k capital and I'm driven to ask what skillset and strategy can generate such profit??
Avoid impulsive decisions driven by short-term fluctuations. Prioritize patience and a long-term perspective most importantly consider financial advisory for informed buying and selling decisions.
Most people minimize the importance of counsel until their own feelings become overwhelming. A few summers ago, following a protracted divorce, I needed a significant push to keep my firm afloat. I looked for licensed advisors and found someone with the highest qualifications. She has contributed to my reserve increasing from $275k to $850k despite inflation.
How can one confirm a licensed advisor;,? I buy the idea of employing the services of one because finding that balance between saving and living comfortably requires maximum discipline. My goal is retiring or working less than 5 years from now. Pls, how do i get a hold of one?
"Laurelyn Gross Pohlmeier," a well-known authority in this field. I would recommend looking into her credentials more because she has a great deal of expertise and is a great resource for anybody looking for advice on how to navigate the financial market.
Thank you for the lead. I searched her up, and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
Someone said that it's time to be concerned when you start to see individuals shoplifting groceries rather than big-screen televisions, and i agree. Truth is, inflation will never reach 2% ever again, maybe in the next life, but not this one. Anyone purchasing groceries and gasoline is aware that real inflation is much over 10%; they simply lie about it like cheap blankets. In reality, interest rates would be in the 20s because of how high inflation is. But then despite the severe bear market, I am aware of certain investors that continue to earn over $365,000. Wish I could accomplish that.
Very possible! Particularly in this weak market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.
I totally agree, it's been three years and counting, and I've made over 1.7 million by simply following a coach's advice. I was on the sidelines for a while watching, trying to determine the best time to get in, before I came across a coach, recommended by my wife. I was reluctant at first but I went ahead and contacted the coach. As a small reward for my consistency, I went on a trip to the Bahamas in the late summer. haha
@caryishnagardner. My wife and i just had this conversation this morning. This is exactly how we wish to get our finances coordinated ahead of retirement. Can I get access to your advisor?
sure . She's known as a 'Monica Mary Strigle '. One of the finest portfolio managers in the field also widely recognized. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with
I just googled her 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. thank you fr saving me hours of Rschng
I’d be retiring or working less in 5 years, and curious to know how best people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments, I earn around $200k per year but nothing to show for it yet.
get rid of any unnecessary purchases, especially things that cost you monthly, or better still, consider financial planning
Right, I'm quite lucky exposed to personal finance at an early age, started work full time at 19, purchased first home at 28. Going forward, got laid off at 36 amidst covid-outbreak, and immediately consulted an advisor to stay on top. As of today, I'm barely 15% short of my $1m goal after subsequent investments.

Net worth analysis fails to account for income streams. Two people with the same net worth may be in far different financial shape depending on how much income they receive (SS, pensions, etc.) and how much they spend each month. Net worth analysis fails to account for COLA that affects how far your dollar stretches depending on where you are living.
Net worth analysis also fails to account for other living factors. Two people with the same net worth may be in far different social situations depending on where they reside. Two people with the same net worth may be facing much different future prospects based on health outlook. Two people with the same net worth may be facing much different personal outlooks if they have familial problems.
Net worth analysis also doesn't account for overcompensation, i.e., accumulated wealth that fails to be spent. Many retirees are so caught up in saving their wealth that they fail to cash in on their hard work. They wait too long before starting to spend their money.
I'm now avoiding new purchases to avoid slipping into a bear trap. However, I'd like to know where the best investment opportunities are during a downturn. My goal is to retire comfortably on around $1.2 million.
Wishing you luck! The key to a happy retirement is to live the life you choose, if you have a certain amount in mind for your retirement, it is only appropriate to work with a knowledgeable advisor to make plans.
I concur that guidance should not be disregarded but rather followed. I remember a few summers ago, not long after my horrible divorce, I was in dire need of advise on investments to keep my head above water. Fortunately, I met someone with grit who greatly assisted me in growing my reserve, which despite inflation has increased from $360k to about seven figures now.
nice gains there! Please share your advisor's info with me. Due to my increased income from work, I'm thinking about investing in stocks and other assets that will enable me to gradually build wealth.
Leah Foster Alderman is the licensed expert I use. Just look up the name. You would discover the necessary information to deal with a correspondence to schedule an appointment.
Wow, I just Googled her whole name and found her platform. Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention, I will definitely get in touch with her.
Taking early notes as to the importance of sound asset diversification and risk management It can’t be overstated. I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $300K for sometime now, I would greatly appreciate any other suggestions.
Well the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward and such impeccable decisions are better guided by professionals
Yes true, I have been in touch with a financial advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.
I’ve been looking to switch to an advisor for a while now. Any help pointing me to who your advisor is?
I'm very cautious about giving specific recommendations as everyone's situation varies. Consider independent financial advisors like "Sharon Ann Meny" I've worked with her for 9 years and highly recommend her. Check if she meets your criteria.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search for her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
In uncertain times, how can one outperform with the S&P 500? my money goal of $3m seems far-fetched and just saving is not an option, do I seek a license advisor to help grow my funds, or wait for a favorable economy? I have barely 5 years to retirement.
patience is your best friend here, although you can benefit from the help of advisors, especially when it comes to smart financing.
Very correct, investing is plain-sailing using a well experienced advisor, and at first-hand experience, I've witnessed my investments compound over 280%, since Jan.2020 amid rona-outbreak, summing up nearly $1m as of today.

None for now. It's getting harder to predict market trends post covid, the market can go down anytime and eat your whole deposit.. Sadly, 0% rates pushing everyone back into the market.
I mean no disrespect but you are wrong... Believe it or not, the market isn't as bad as some people have made it look... Companies are making record profits... As a beginner investor who knows next to nothing, I have made over $30k net profit in a few months... I was retrenched recently, and I am using these resources to keep body and soul together.
Hi Mr. Anthony, your profit margin is quite impressive for a beginner. Good for you!!!! can you share your spreadsheet or investing journal?? inadvertently, i sold a boatload of my portfolio recently.

seems like a short time but does not sound impossible to me
I am in the top 10 of my age group and I literally got there in same time, so it's very possible. These tips should help. 1. Have multiple streams of income, especially passive income... It's harder to grow income when it's coming from just a source. . 2. Invest wisely... Money sitting in the bank does not grow, money not invested well is a waste. 3. Work harder and smarter, you don't improve without putting in work...
How do you know what to invest in? How can you know if it is the right choice?
Could be anything, real estates, stocks, bonds, anything... Just make sure you just don't buy anything but something you've looked into properly and objectively... If you don't have the time, you could use an F.A or realtor or any expert there... For me, it was stocks because it was the cheapest to get into. There are more options these days...

Hello, I'm interested in trying this out. Who is your adviser, and how can I reach them?
Stacy Lynn Staples is who I work with. Have worked with her for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look her up.
Stacy sure knows her onions in this industry, from her intimidating profile which I went through, on her web home page. I started off last year tailoring a colleague's tradin strategies but it didn't pan out well. Hopeful that Kathleen will attend to my message.
I had a job since I was 16 and as soon as I turned 18 started investing. I put 2k that I had saved up into Tesla shares back in 2019 and they had a crazy run in 2020 which turned my 2k into 8k. I cashed out and redistributed my earnings in other investments and a few months after that I heavily got into crypto. I made it my goal to keep at least 1k in my savings account for emergency purposes and all other money I make (aside from bill money) to be invested consistently into the stock market and crypto. I reached a peak net worth of 64k back in 2021 at the age of 20. Since I didn't cash everything out at the top the bear market came around and now I'm sitting at like 45k net worth at 23. Good news is the next bull market is happening now and by the end my portfolio should quadruple since I have significantly more money in the markets than I did last bull market. When you play the long game you always win
Bro I don't think your playing the long game
Also what is crypto 🤔
I really feel grateful to be born in a third world country in a rich family!

..do these numbers account for student loan debt?

The numbers for 25 onwards (at least mid to high end) seem scary low for many metropolitan or city areas. Maybe is phenomenal for other parts (referring to living in the US) but find that concerning so as to weather periods of unemployment, emergencies or realistically retire.
Hopefully one offsets that with rather high income(s) or ridiculously low cost of living.
At age 16 to 21, you are still studying unless you are working and studying at the same time and still living with your parents.
And you are saving some of your allowance not to mention that your parents are well off and are generous enough in giving you extra money.

having a ton of disappointments in forex and crypto trading in light of helpless direction and awful specialists
I've been trying to trade but I keep making losses and it's frustrating
Can you recommend a guide for me?
This video is a rude awakening and a necessary kick up the back side to get your things in order
Yeah, i'm killing it! (Kind of on the low end, but still! Also, justified by being at the beginning of my age bracket)
Mistake @5:56 low end and high end?
...and what do you exactly 😂😂🚮
I thought this was the place future billionaires get inspired? We need a follow up video on the top 1% and .01% net worth by age.
GOLDEN
I plan on doing so, but in Nigerian Naira 😅
😂😂😂 one of the most garbage currencies
So, what if you're not even at median, for the age group?
I was born at the year of 1999, my net worth is 100k+, I still constantly felt anxious about my future. I worked and saved too hard and I'm still worried 😢.
What are you worried about mate?
You create your future and from a financial perspective you're doing well
dawg you. doing. well im 25 and. dont have that, enjoy the moments money cant buy. You doing better than 85% of our age group. take a chill pill.
How did you make that money ?
@codingiscreativity been working since 2018, didn't go college, saved 70% of all my income, didn't impress nobody. Hope I saved more but I need to make more I guess
@kolibaba9507 scarcity mindset got the worst of me bro, 100k can't get you a house, it's like I'm afraid one day if I gon run outta cash.
Easy way I got rich and I'm gen X, started with -$22k out of college: buy stocks in Apple, Microsoft, Google, Wells Fargo.
Is this realistic for people in 2024 in the middle of inflation?
Inflation only make the numbers go up.
At most of these age brackets. I simply hope to be wealthy in good health.
The goal is to be debt free and have enough, to not worry about money that much. There is no magic number, just when you stop worrying about money, that's when you are doing good. Most people who retire, end up GAINING net worth in retirement. There are a lot of people that want you to invest and tell you, you need $2 million dollars. It's all non sense. If you are debt free and own your home, you are golden. If you get sick and need to be in a home, doesn't matter how much you saved, because it will all be gone. Better to be broke at that point and get state aid.
Your net-worth is the sum of your satisfaction + peace + happiness in life.
Nearly 100 percent of Indians know what their net worth is.
But they severely underestimate it.
They know and measure real estate value, cash in bank and mutual funds, stocks, bonds etc.
They leave out gold, cars and sometimes insurance policies.
Well im almost 19 and I've a net worth of 62k
Thanks to alux I look broke then a homeless but still in top 10%😂❤
🤣
Happy to see that my net worth is higher then the median for my age group (41-45). And I hope to be in the 10% by 65. Don't have to be golden by that age, but the top 10% should be manageable🤞🤞🤞
You know what Alux should have done? Do NOT count your primary residence as part of your net worth then tell me how they do. Your primary home is for you to live it and its not that liquid. Another point I want to make it is are you a traditional 401k/IRA or a Savings+Roth 401k/IRA millionaire? Remember, you owe Uncle Sam a piece of that huge pie if you go a spending spree on the former when you retire. I would rather be a $300k home+$2.2 million Roth 401k/IRA millionaire than a $1.2 mil home + $1.3 million traditional 401k millionaire.
By age of 65 billionaire.
Golden millionaire soon
Wrong measure here. Of course, selling all you assets would give you part of your total wealth. But, it doesn't account for various pensions that are permanent. Social Security, Government pensions, and private pensions that go on until you and your spouse pass away also account for wealth. For that you would need to calculate what amount of money would be put in a savings account and return the income you receive from those pensions without diminishing the fund.
I smell alot BS .
I absolutely love ❤ this channel.
17 year old millionaire 😅 I'm youngest millionaire in my blood line ❤
Future became billionaire soon 🔜
How did you make your money?
@@MoistDelta. By stock market
@@devRabha-p4t I didn't know you can invest in the stock market as a minor
I don’t understand how this is a positive number for the vast majority of people. Does this not include student loans?
Yes, you're supposed to pay those off and get on with your life. The purpose of the debt in the first place is to increase your salary after you graduate.
@@alux I get that just thought it would skew the stats more is all.
I don’t want to be rude nor especially want to ruin future videos for the community here on TH-cam but would like the answer of why would I want to pay for a subscription of an app if I eventually see the content here for free? Alux?
They describe how to calculate your net worth incorrectly in the beginning of this video. The correct way is below:
“Your net worth is the value of all of your assets, minus the total of all of your liabilities. Put another way, it is what you own minus what you owe.”
Yeah I was buffoonish when I was in my early 20s. I was making more money than my friends, cause that was around 2014, I was 18 an hour working 30 hours a week. Which felt good, but I honestly ended up in jail a few times for being foolish and the hospital too. But around 24 I started changing my life. And right now I have a blog that’s getting lots of views and I’m expecting to make money from the blog this coming year, God willingly it will work.
ALUX, these numbers are astronomical for southern Europeans. Can you make a video strictly about Europeans or even better southern Europeans? Your numbers are still skewed due to US and Canada. Just to give you an idea: average net salary 1.000 euros if you are between the ages of 30 and 40
Zero Personal Debt and Passive Income is the Key...Only borrow strategically via a Business to Earn Money...Quick FLIPS or Passive Opportunities.
Great video.However at 5:47 in the video there's a clear error in the low and high end bracket.
I know and track my net worth regularly;
I also track my change in market value (and averages for monthly, annually, YoY and going back several years) in both dollars and % in each account, and in the aggregate of all my accounts.
I also know where, how, and I why it changes, such as growth, balanced and income/value.
I'm on track to retire early in 1-2 years, and will be able to live on ~ 10% of my annual change in market value from dividend income only.
This is fun! So, I’m 40 yr old this year - my net worth is about $550k without the yearly take-home pay from work which is in the low 6 figures. Curious to know if I qualify to be in the top 10% of my age bracket.😅
I think it depends on how much you have liquid that you can put to work and create more revenue.
Love this video keep it up
Your primary home isnt an asset. Its a store of value for most.
Assets put money in your pocket constantly. Home cost you and most people do good to break even after all costs calculated.
Interest, taxes, repairs and renovation, insurance and property maintenance.
The problem is that these numbers are mostly applicable to the United States. For Eastern Europe and Asia, even 10 thousand dollars is a lot of money.
Once a year? I made it a habit to do that on the last day of every month. Even if the progress looks smaller, it is a great motivation.
thanks to higher education, i started off at 25yrs old -$250K in debt but now i'm at top ten net worth. all in Tesla at this moment
if you're 16 years old your in school so where are you getting money from 😮
I’m guessing selling 💊💊💊
@@ocox8659 but most of them aint like that getting 20's and 40's here and there. c'mon be real most of them of dumb ass fuck and get cuaght up i did forsure, smoking thoe.
Part time job
@@scottmanning4512 😔
Is this per household or per person? Either way $3M for a 57 y.o. has got to be richer than 10% if it is for singles.
Awesome work alux.
Basically your net worth, is your house lol. That is the main reason, why as people age, they increase their net worth. Of course there is interest compounding in 401Ks etc.. But those median numbers, are almost exactly what a house would be worth as you paid it off and it increased in value. I'd like to see the median, with houses taken out.
I am 42 if the house is not included. My net worth is 1.1 million today. My major net worth is the stock not house.
@@lung21 Most people's biggest addition to their net worth is the property they own. Not everyone, but the majority. That's one big reason you see the net worth go up with age, as their house/property appreciates and they pay the or mortgage down.
@@micker9830 agree, but this is wrong. The house for self use should not be included. The house may increases from 300k to 600k. However, we still need to buy the house again after we sell it. I also don’t count 401k as well, but this is only my personal reason. I don’t think I will be able to last to retirement age. 401k money is only for my family.
@@lung21 Not true. Many people sell their house in retirement and just rent a condo or apartment. Also that equity in the house can be left to your children, after you die and they sell the house. It adds to what you are worth. You can't say a guy who rents and a guy who owns a paid for $600k home, have the same net worth.
@@micker9830 that’s why I said when u are self use dont count it. The way I am doing will be safer because everyone should have a safe margin to handle the unexpected situation. If u moved out, this is no self use anymore. I invested on condos and rent the place out. I only count that one as my net worth. I saw too many people over estimate their net worth. And end up they don’t have enough of money.
The matter is how much money that u can easily to control.
Thanks, very happy to have watched this video😄 . though if economic crisis comes, then things are hard to say ..
Hello @Alux, please check the editing at 5:47 min. Some data(Low end to High end) is showing wrongly.
If I do sell everything thing that I have it would be worth $15 USD.😢😂.
Hi can you guys include top 1% please for ages 18-30. I’m between top 1-10 so I wanna know
Different layout video, same GOLDEN quality. Thanks Alux.
I was a millionaire but in the last 2 weeks I had to spend it all on Bidens groceries
Is this individual wealth or family wealth? If individual, then means family x2 the numbers?
It’s individual (head of family)
Head of household isn’t individual net worth.
I know you're trying for a Sonic signature but that jingle was horrendous. 🔕 Though it may be long "where billionaires come to get inspired" is already your recognizable audio autograph.
Dam, what a wake up call! I'm turning 25 years old, have a 1 year working experience and although in the African continent I still feel like I have to up my game asap. Thank you Alux, I definitely needed this video.
These are scary times because the economy is in such dire shape. I am in the Top 10% for my age group (62) and am still living very modestly, as I fear running out of money before I die. I have personally seen how much a serious illness can cost, and also how much nursing homes/assisted-living facilities, can cost per year, and it is scary!
Current net worth $316,000,000 and growing current age 65.5 🎉
😂😂😂 baller
I was over range in 16-21 but not in top 10%
I was below median but in range 21-25
25-31 below range
Since 31 negative net worth, but moved right direction last 14 months.
I was below range
Oh wow I’m 27 and my net worth just past 250k a few days ago I guess I’m on the right track. I hope to scale it to at least $1M when I get to my 30’s
