Yesh, but didja hear it was rishk free? Seriously though, this is how a lot of hedge funds work, and it’s why (aside from regulation) they’re used by wealthy people. If you have tens of millions of dollars you don’t really need to grow it aggressively. Steady growth and protection from severe losses is good enough.

I watched this entire thing, understood very little, and learned absolutely nothing. Exactly what I expect from a Benjamin video. This is your prime content son.
Your advice has changed my life forever, I would never have met my current wife melissa in the county jail if I hadn't tried to fake my death to escape from my numerous creditors. Thanks Benjamin!
As you know with 5% inflation you could lose half your money in 20 years, but luckily with your videos I beat that! I lost all of it in about week! Thank you for coming back 👍

Started my portfolio last year with SCHD, VOO, and VUG after watching one of your videos. In terms of share price, VOO is way up (22.25%) and VUG is waaaaay up (39.62%). Thanks for the education!
Isn't VOO and VUG similar in the sense both are investing in the S&P 500? What is the difference? I thought it is generally advised against to invest in multiple ETFs or Mutual Funds?
There is 55% overlap with the holdings in VOO and VUG. 1 is tech heavy and the other is financials heavy similar, but not the same. VOO tracks the S&P 500; VUG is just focused on large cap growth stocks. VUG is a bit more volatile, but with a higher upside potential. VOO is a bit safer. I’ve never heard anyone advise against multiple ETFs/mutual funds. You just have to be aware of overlap. You don't have to act on every forecast, so I'll suggest that you work with a financial advisor who can help you choose the best times to purchase and sell the shares or ETFs you want to acquire.
I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 2years+ and I've netted over 2.8million.
I'm sitting on some significant money ready to toss it into VOO, but I'm kinda hoping that price drops a bit. I know we only want to see the stock rise, but being heavily liquid, I'd rather not reinvent the wheel, thus the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
Finding financial advisors like Marisa Breton Dollard who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
Wow, I just discovered this channel this morning, and I've already got a scheduled hearing in bankruptcy court! Oh, and between those two events I quit my job, which was just icing on the cake! Thanks Benjamin!!
I literally don't care about any of this subject matter but your editing and deadpan is fucking legendary. The pause at 7:00, for example, had me on the floor. Great work
Benjamin this is my favorite video on youtube ever, it's like its demographic is me I watch it 10 times a day and have probably seen it 50 times in total already, I don't understand how you can make such a perfect video
It's a damn real shame I can't enjoy this video in a continuous, non-interrupted way to gather a complete understanding of the underlying message by Benji cause I have to pause the video every frame to enjoy the bloody funny memes.
2:13 what do you mean, that third point sounds easy! I mean with 5 years being needed for an entry level job as a 20 year old, who wouldn't have 40 years of work experience at e.g. 30?
Thanks for the advice! I'm new to financial planning and wasn't sure where to start. Any tips on finding a reliable financial adviser or resource to guide beginners?
As a beginner, it's essential for you to have a mentor that is verified by finra and SEC to keep you accountable. I'm guided by a widely known financial consultant Stacey Macken
Thank you Benjamin you inspired me to become a quant in a stat arb firm. I watched all your videos and they are all super helpful even in the interviews. Seriously.
Fantastic video! I have incurred so much losses trading on my own....I trade well on demo but I think the real market is manipulated.... Can anyone help me out or at least tell me what I'm doing wrong??
Following you has been an amazing journey , you have shown me the best way to earn much better profits despite the bad economic situations, God bless you with more knowledge Mrs Janet...
It's like some stocks are flying under the radar despite their potential. It makes you wonder when the market will catch on to their true value. how can I invest $100K smartly to secure my future?
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown
No doubt, having the right plan is invaluable, my portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 100% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, tho this could take till Q3 2025
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.
It's a good day when Benjamin uploads a video, liking and commenting before even watching, now to enjoy my next 10 minutes escaping this wretched reality.
The funny thing about this guy is I’m a simple day trader I don’t understand a damn thing he is saying half the time but he is very entertaining and I watch him while I make poor trade decisions keep up the work👍🏾
In late 2022 when the euro dropped against the dollar. I was able to go through duty-free at the airport in Frankfurt and get champagne and other European products at significant discounts. When I flew through the next month, they had increased all the pricing but for that three week period that I was traveling over there. When purchasing in US dollars into euros, it was like everything was 25% off. It was crazy! Everything except the fuel on the autobahn. That was and still is insanely high, like $12 a gallon. Mind blowing!
We’re in the midst of material being created right before our eyes.. these past few months have and will continue to be legendary. Especially If this squeeze happens from the stock that shall not be named.

It’s daunting if you ask me, I’m curious as to the next wave of stocks to do well as regards growth over the next decade

"He's back."

"No, Benjamin."

That's all that matters.

This dude is hilarious
I like your funny words, magic man.
real
the production quality is insane
Benji… JUST WHERE THE F*CK HAVE YOU BEEN?
Sailing a pirate ship around.
Looking for new music for his videos…no Tequila or Peter and the Wolf😑
Me, to my wallet:
Boeing got to him but he raised from the dead like Jesus.
being a little pussy running away from a down market
It's very funny that everything comes back to : just buy an index fund
holy crap he remembered how to make a video
When the world needed him most, he returned.
Unlike his portfolio
bro just hold and never sell
Always a delight seeing you play around with your colours Benjamin.
Benjamin is back!
Though we probably won't see another video for a while...
This channel helps keep me focused on rational medium and long-term investing
Literally was just watching an old video by Benjamin an see this pop up. Made my day!!
In the middle of bar prep bro. I needed this. Thank you for posting. You are my god.
I was needing this!
Please don't stop!
You Made my day!
1:10 It is amazing how The Big Short became such a Bible that every regard could see(hear) that scene immediately :)
I was worried you got an award from me, welcome back
😂 your comment was the most creative thing i read in a couple of weeks. Nice!
he did for sure
Such a stupid novelty account
YESS!!! Another video!! Please keep posting more if you can! Your videos are one of the few pieces of happiness I have right now! Thank you thank you!
