    Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.

      The issue is most people have the “I will do it myself mentality” but not skilled enough. Ideally, advisors are perfect reps for investing jobs and at first-hand experience, my portfolio has yielded over 350%, since covid-outbreak to date, summing up nearly $1m.

      Same here! Those videos get you thinking, but actually being ready takes more than a quick checklist.

      Agreed, the role of advisors can only be overlooked, but not denied.

As of today, my account has yielded big fat yields, and leverages on 7-figure, only cos I delegate my excesses right.

    The secret is to put money away every paycheck. He says 15% but I think you check out the budget for some extra. Put it into an SP index fund. Do not touch it. Just let it grow. If you are spending 10 hours a week worrying about it now,use that time for a hustle and tuck that away. Trying to work the market is a mugs game. It can be done by a few people but you don’t d sound like one. 10 years from now your index fund in your Roth IRA will be doing great. Or 401k.

    It’s recommended to save at least 20% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving that percentage can ensure that you have enough to venture into the market and diversify. You can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your portfolio over time.

      It all depends on how long you're willing to hold for, stocks might likely tank further, but making serious gains in this downtrend wouldn't be a problem if you're a pro.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.

While working like a dog 50-80+ hours a week, I didn't realize how sleep deprived, stressed out and exhausted I was. My advice is to live below your means, live debt-free, don't worry about the Joneses, save, invest and get out of the "rat race" as soon as financially possible.

I worked very hard to achieve what I have now, but in my last years, I owe it to myself to "stop and smell the roses." In my instance, I departed the nation after retiring and currently reside in Latin America.

    I retired at 57, 7 years ago. My wife and I saved and invested early allowing me to exit the workforce when I did. She stayed home after our first was born and has not worked since (25+ years). House is paid off, kids college tuitions fully funded, have two late model cars fully paid off, travel extensively and do not forsake anything we need. I actually have more income coming in today than when I was working. We are not special and believe most people can do this with the appropriate level of planning and discipline.
    The key message I would communicate to others is don't delay retirement if you have the financial wherewithal to do so. Too often I have seen many people delay retirement and then experience health issues which constrain the very things they wanted to do post-retirement.
    Moreover, the most significant benefit of retirement for me is that I no longer have to deal with people I do not want to. That has proved to be the ultimate blessing.

    I retired 16 months ago from the federal government and am enjoying it for the most part. I did miss it for a few months but have adjusted to the time I now have to do things, what ever I want when I want. With a pension, VA benefits and TSP I am not very concerned about money….. retire when you are ready to, not when someone tells you to. Find a financial planner, understand what money you have and will get and what you want to do in retirement

    I am in my early 60s and retired at 53. Lots of people gave me pushback because they had difficulty grasping the concept of not working if you don’t have to. I looked at my life as stages. I earned everything I have now through a lot of hard work, but I owe it to myself to “stop and smell the roses” in my final stage of life. In my case I left the country after I retired and live in Latin America. It allowed me to get away from all the negative things happening in America while appreciating my new environment. I have yet to meet anyone who regrets retirement.

      Nice way to retire. For me, I believe retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My wife and I has spent same number of years in the civil service, she is investing through a wealth manager and myself through the 401k. We both still earning towards having our retirement.

      This is true. I'm in my mid 40's now. My wife and I were following this same trajectory. Last two years, I pulled out my money and invested with her wealth manager. Not catching up with her profits over the years, but at least I earn more. I'm making money even before retiring, and my retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.

Finding financial advisors like Marisa Breton Dollard who can assist you on things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded, going over tax benefits, ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.

Social Security doesn't have the funds enough to get us out of living check to check (i.e., my rent would take 2/3 of my monthly SS pay).

I went through the numbers with my fidelity guy and moved the 401k to a retirement account. Cobra and unemployment for now. Got a kitchen clock with days of the week on it. Only issue now is a 17 year old shihtzu that is preventing me from traveling but that's ok. Resealed the driveway and did bakery sales at a fleamarket. No more weekly highlights, quarterly reviews, timecard, or late night meetings with Singapore. The guys back in the office are having to take on what I was doing and the company stock is now well below a dollar a share. I was lucky. And compared to a lot of folks (including my brother).

    This is a good vlog and it put a smile on my face as of the six questions the only one I could honestly answer yes to was number 6. I could afford to retire. I made 5 years on the original plan which touched zero of long term investments. Due to sky rocketing insurance costs. Just recently started to tap into long term. What made my mind up was I had achieved as much and more than I had hoped and had wonderful leaders and colleagues and accolades. But having mentored so many young people I realized what would give me pleasure was knowing by me retiring and “getting out of the way” a bright and talented younger person would get a good career boost. They overall are having a much harder time getting their careers started than I did 40 some years ago. I was able to train my much younger replacement who was very talented. My company allowed me to do a phased reduction of work hours so by my retirement week I was only working two 8 hour days. So the adjustment to not going to work was very smooth and it was effortless from the first morning on. Everyone’s life is different but one thing is for sure every morning you wake up is a gift and not guaranteed.
