Quick Correction: in the first tax TikTok, I mention needing to be incorporated to deduct expenses. This was a mistake - I meant to say you generally need to be self-employed, which doesn't require incorporating (you can deduct expenses as a sole proprietor). Apologies for the slip up.
I'm so poor I always get money back lmao never needed tax evasion
@@ii8283 so you lend money to the government interest-free😢😢😢😢
🤷That's what I thought you meant.
It's ok I don't give a crap about finances either way
@@27shaqibshaikh75 that's great, you are on the right path, but I think you should consider getting a share of one of these giant index funds like IVV, SPY, or QQQ, they are statistically much safer and better investment than any REIT, by risk-adjusted return.
How to grow a portfolio from 500 dollars to 4.7 million dollars:
1. Put 500 dollars into an account
2. Put another 4.7 million into that account
Then withdraw the $500, or else you busted the cap.
How to become a millionaire.
1) Be a billionaire.
2) Listen to “not financial advice” on social media.
🤯
Then charge ppl money for your investing advice because you didn't actually make that much lol 😂
That's how Robert Kiyosaki did it.
He had TWO dads, one with 4.7 million and the other was poor.
“Just pick the best individual stocks bro” is the same as saying “just bet on the correct number on the roulette wheel”
If you’re homeless just buy a house, bro
If you are poor just buy more money
@@FilthyFloor If you are poor, just stop being poor!
"If I can just 10x 3 times"
That's only true if you're a low-information investor. Warren Buffett's method of investing, which uses individual stocks, is nothing like betting, and is wildly more successful than "just pick the index fund bro".

Yeah and just using business acounts for all of your expenses is awesome when the business goes bankrupt. Doesn't matter if it is an LLC those sweet protections are long gone buddy
Just like they say, everything is legal unless you get caught 😂
@@MOBMJ it's your only in trouble if you get caught 🤣😂
I love that last "advice"
1. Be given $300/month from parents.
2. Invest it in something that pays 10% a month.
OH!!!! so all I have to do is receive free money and invest it into something that provides unbelievable amounts of returns. OF COURSE!!!!!
Just 10%??? If you're not doubling your money every month, what are you even doing?
Pft, if you don't make 1000% a month, you are a failure.
Also being given that money with little immediate critical needs and/or expenses helped
its only like that cus Boomers control 90% of the wealth in America.... because they make the policy. Theyve been taking and taking from the system for years.
11:25 Yeah, why does no one copy the queen of england's investment strategy of being born into the royal family? We're clearly all thinking too small
How to be rich:
- Be born in the line of succession of a rich monarchy
- Profit
🤯
Are you hungry? Do you need money to buy food? Have you tried being born into a wealthy family? It's very easy!
I'm suddenly reminded of the Emporor's New Groove and this quote from Yzma (the main villain)
Yzma : It is no concern of mine whether or not your family has... what was it again?
Peasant : Umm... food?
Yzma : Ha! You really should have thought of that before you became peasants!

Stability is a result of our economy's struggles with uncertainty, housing issues, foreclosures, global volatility, and the pandemic's consequences. To restore stability and promote growth, all sectors must respond quickly to concerns about growing inflation, slow growth, and trade disruptions
try contacting a financial experts. They can provide knowledge and help you navigate complex financial decisions.
Having an investment advisor is currently the best way to approach the stock market.
Based on personal experience working with an investment advisor, I currently have $800k in a well-diversified portfolio that has experienced exponential growth. It's not only about having money to invest in stocks, but you also need to be knowledgeable, persistent, and have strong hands to back it up.
I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've been stuck with *KAREN* *MARIE* *GENDRON* for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.
Thanks for sharing this. I just googled her name and found her webpage. I'm really impressed with her credentials and I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get.
Cardone really just said "yeah, just get $300 allowance a month as a 14 year old, easy" and didn't even blink, what a ridiculous person.
Right? 300 bucks a month as a 15 yo???
Exactly my thought. Even with inflation _and_ summer jobs I wasn't making even half that.
Nah man, you just need 300usd total by that age and invest it into something that pays you 30usd back each month. Reinvest those 30usd and you will have tens of millions by the age of 30
I won't lie though when I was around that age I walked my elderly neighbor's dog and she gave me $200. I felt so bad that I tried to give it back. I really gave it to my friend who ended up not being a good friend. The woman was giving us $100 each time we walked her dog. I had no idea what the value of money was, so it's gone now.
@@herpyderp3384classic 10% returns each month 😂
I suspect Kawasaki realized he could make more money selling fear than investment knowledge. He checked in his integrity and went all in on grift.
100%. He’s absolutely insufferable.
Kawasaki doesn't know anything anyway. Grifting is all he ever had.
15 years ago I didn’t know anything about investing and wanted to start to learn. I went to a used bookstore and the only book on investing they had was Rich Dad Poor Dad. I read 1/3 of the book, then realized that the advice being given was purposely vague platitudes with virtually no executable advice. Then I went down a rabbit hole researching his background and let’s just say he’s always been a charlatan.
As a CPA, I often come across the "spending to save taxes" idea, which is a bit stupid if the "spending" is discretionary. Spending 80% of a dollar to save 20% of it. Want to improve your bottom line? Don't spend if you don't have to.
I live in New Zealand, where they changed the law recently so capital gains applied only if you sold an investment property without holding for 2 years (instead of 10).
The majority of new investors held through a massive bubble until the law changed, then sold after the market crashed, to avoid taxes. As one glib commentator pointed out, they lost money doing this, in real terms, after taxes (or lack of). But psychologically, many of them still consider that they "won" somehow
Exactly lol
Yeah, tax avoidance won't really help you when you don't have money.
@@the_newt_nest Yes, it's way more useful as a stay wealthy behavior
@@FrankWinchester Smart boyz.
The most important thing to understand about an influencer teaching you anything is that they can just lie. Tax guy can be telling you one thing while doing something else. "$4million portfolio" woman can have a negative net worth and her entire portfolio is just a faked up picture. They can just lie, and if they're ever caught out they can act like YOU are the stupid one because they're "just telling stories" or whatever. They can lie and lie and lie with no consequences, so they do.
If these influencers could really teach you how to “easily trade” and get rich quick, guess what they would do instead of TH-cam. Making TH-cam content is way harder than clicking buy/sell.
That’s why you should only trust people who prove themselves and are confirmed by others
it's the old saying, the best way to make money is to write a book telling people how to make money.
@@luisfilipe2023You need to have seen their ledgers in complete and in person. The only time I'd trust them is if I was their accountant.
Indeed. Add in the profit incentive, and it's a no-brainer. It's not just finance either. It's everything. The internet is a great reflection of humanity. Just like MMO games are.
Robert Kiyosaki has been using his fame from "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" to sell bad and unethical financial advice for decades.
He was kind of a shady character from the start. Rich Dad himself appears to be fiction, and there’s a bit where Kiyosaki straight-up says to make friends with high-ranking businesspeople and see if they can throw you some insider information.
Kiyosaki claims it’s not insider trading because you’re not the insider, but Martha Stewart’s conviction says otherwise. She benefitted third-hand - an insider (who, granted, was also a friend of Stewart) told his broker to sell a bunch of shares. The broker called Stewart and suggested she sell. If that’s close enough to count as a felony, outright asking your golf buddy for insider tips definitely does.
@@Magic_beans_ Rich Dad, Poor Dad was just a good way to explain assets, liabilities, and equity to people without basic accounting knowledge. The only real downside to the book is that it is overly optimistic on real estate, doesn't properly explain the risk of debt, and is often used as stepping stone to sell people bad financial products.
And people keep falling for it. It's one of the most popular personal finance books to this day.
In 1 of the Interview, he admits that. He literally said his advice was not any different from people who write book about finances before him, the difference was he was just better at Marketing.
He told a Story where he had a Conversation with a Professional Novel Writers on how to write a better book and become the best seller. He told the writer to take a Marketing Class, and the Novel writer got offended by that because he told her Marketing skill is more important than writing skills when it comes to selling books.
Yes, very creepy these days and hawking shady investment gimmicks. Worse then Ramsey U.
The camera glance after "...to millions of dollars!" was worth the whole viewing.
I love how social media is convinced "writing taxes off" applies to anything regardless of how tangential it is to your business, and they often act like its free money when the stuff they talk about would result in maybe 100$ back at the end of the year if they're lucky
Yeah If you can’t afford something because of tax, then you can’t afford it at all
Some of the people giving that "financial advice" admit that it's just fraud they make up for entertainment. Like one guy who went viral for his "life hack" to take a $10,000+ loan to start a business, buy yourself a really expensive watch with said business, and then declare bankruptcy and let the bank eat the loss (something that would get you sent to jail for fraud and embezzlement).

Grant forgot the fact that Goldman Sachs needed Buffett to save their arse in 2008.
Grant forgets a lot of things.
@@TheNaldiinlike the difference between a million and a billion, or the difference between assets and assets under management, or how to not be a fraud
@Iceman259 yeah, you know, the little things.
Does it count as forgetting, if he just too dumb to know it?
I think Berkshire has 2 trillion in assets under management. The reason why buffet is great and why everyone went to him for a bailout is because he carries billions in cash.
Cash is king, and Grant should follow his advice 😂
The phrase "everybody is an idiot except for me" is the motto of the day. I consider myself lucky for having low enough self esteem that I've always invested with caution and an approach of learning, balanced with distrust of any single person or group. If you care about your money, treat it with care!
I have low self steem too! Let's hangout and doubt our capabilities!
You will never be broke and never be rich 😅
I once interviewed top international poker players in a tournament for a magazine. One of the top guys gave up being a surgeon to play professional poker - he was a great thinker and had written books on playing strategies. I asked him for some ranked tips for the readers (magazine layout loves numbered points!) His number one priority (and same goes for most pro players during a game) is money management. That is: All your betting strategies must come from protecting what you already have.
The hero we wanted and needed. These videos is a wiff of fresh air in an otherwise thick moisty fog which is the finance space. I've been active in it for over 6 years now and the amount of bs i've witnessed over that period... In other words, your harsh reality content is very much appreciated and puts a smile on me face. Keep it up my favorite pastry👊
At 6:38, you can catch a glimpse of her net change, which begins with a -36, so her stocks DID lose money over whatever period it was. Also, just by checking NVDA, which was up 245% means that AT BEST her portfolio occurred around June 18th ($135.58) with the start being around June 9th 2023 ($38.77) to get that type of return, so it was at least a year of difference.
Thanks for this. I was hoping someone put in the legwork in the comments
"Follow my diamond process, and you too can turn $5 million into $4.7 million"!
Oh man, imagine you call your landlord to come out and fix your AC or take a look at the water heater and a fifteen year old in a Fortnite shirt shows up at your doorstep. I am *cackling*.
I like how the 4.7M lady points out the gains, but at the top it looks like she down about 36k. Like Richard points out, she avoids showing all the stocks with negative returns.
I noticed that too as I am familiar with negative numbers on my investments lol.
Whatever it takes to sell people something I guess
I wonder if that's actually her account even? Is she a trust fund baby or did she just edit html elements
i think thats just daily p&l
Had she invested all her money in VOO, that would not be a loss:)
The fourth wall break by Richard when she says 500$ to Millions, is PRICELESS.

For real. Anyone who wants to buy gold or silver should ask themselves why gold and silver merchants are desperately spending so much money pumping to get you to buy their gold/silver if they really believe that the dollar's value is going to go to zero like all their fearmongering ads say.
@@shadowninja6689 those world gold council ads on bloomberg run a dozen of times per day
No one's talking about how he said "Just buy real estate at 15" lmaooooooo I can't believe those words even came out of his mouth. Great content once again from you Richard. Glad I don't use Tik Tok or follow really an "finfluencers" I make my own decisions and do my own research.
buy a doll house and rent it out to other children maybe?
I did listen to a podcast of a 17-year-old girl that bought a rental house. She and her boyfriend got the down payment by flipping furniture on Facebook Marketplace. She still needed her parents to qualify for the mortgage, though.
"If you get an allowance of $300 a month, buy a piece of real estate..."
How much does he think real estate costs? If you could afford any revenue generating piece of real estate for $300 a month then we'd all own it.
Houses are going for $290k where I live. You can buy a piece of dirt say 2x2 feet for $300 and that's about it.
@shubamrachappanavar2708 With most REIT's you can't just deposit a couple hundred dollars though, you usually have to go in with at least 5k. Or at least that's what I've seen.
@Lonovavir I hope he has the money left over for the 2% property tax on that 2'x2' plot!
You can always just buy a fraction of REIT stock. It's technically buying real estate. The reality is that they are volatile and usually underperform index funds.
All you have to do is always pick the best stock. Come on people!
How hard can it be? :D
I love the girl in the second one about index funds going through all of her individual stocks but yet she moves her head and gives away that her overall portfolio is negative anyway lol.

I really appreciate you emphasising that it's important for kids to just be... kids. Like, life is shockingly long and shockingly bland as an adult, there's a reason why we all think back fondly to our childhoods. It's depressing to think teens these days feel pressured to hussle already, like you have 60+ years of your life to do that. No need to rush.

Ah, 2021. What a glorious time of horrible advice.
I mean, it's for the greater good.

That shit was amazing. I remember some kids arbitraging crypto tokens and using the interest to buy a million dollar house at like 19.
@@austinduke8876 it happens a lot. I bought bitcoin in 2013. Paid cash for a house after selling it in 2017. I also bought into vanguard ETFs with the remainder after tax, it’s worth just shy of 300k today.
I still dabble with bitcoin. I’ve never once taken a loss. It always comes back.
I had a client once who put all of his nest egg in gold and silver, just after he retired in, I think, 2012. He read some BS like what Robert K was saying in that video and believed he would propser as the world burned down. Instead his net worth was obliterated. It was so painful to see.

The thing about precious metals is that while they are rare and finite, that isn't what makes their value _increase._ The increase in value depends on increasing demand relative to supply. If it isn't happening because of technology shifts, supply changes, or public/investor sentiment on the overall economy, then it's ultimately just tracking population growth.
A lot of incredibly consistent (global) economic trends upon which people presume to rely indefinitely as bedrock will simultaneously fail when global population peaks and shifts into decline. In other words, unless you're bringing a wealth of expertise on all those various other influencing factors, then you're putting your faith in that remaining "reliable" growth factor that's already tiny, steadily decelerating, and will eventually reverse.
Most people don't buy PMs thinking that they will increase in value compared to other commodities, but rather to hold value in comparison to fiat currency which governments constantly devalue through inflation.
You can't shake a bullshit tree and expect facts to fall out. Great video.
about robert kiosaki (however it is actually spelled), I read rich dad poor dad and can confidently say it is a freaking scam so the dude has absolute not changed
It's 98% storytelling and bragging, 2% financial advice some of which is illegal.
@@Lonovavir untrue storytelling for the most part, I may add. Also what you said checks out.
@shubamrachappanavar2708 it is not bad, it is PURE DUMPSTER FIRE TRASH. It teaches young people to think all poor people are somwhoe at fault, that they are morally lesser, it makes some stupid advice like join an MLM company to "improve your marketing skills" and all the actual good shit in the book can be summarized in like a few pages. I'd rather have no idea how investing works than have that wrong of an idea.
I’ve rewatched every episode a million times and I’m so excited for episode 7
kyosaki was always a conman. i mean rich dad poor dad, its all about speculation in real estate and also having a high paying job. dude was military pilot, flying helicopters in vietnam and commercial after discharge if i remember correctly. thats the whole book basically, high paying job, saving as much as you can and speculate the real estate.
I agree he's a conman and Rich Dad Poor Dad was probably filled with lies and/or exaggerations but the reason so many people like the book was because there is some good advice.
One of the basic ideas is that rich people and poor people handle money differently. His contention was that rich people invest in assets that will grow and pay them more money later while poor people spend their money on liabilities like expensive houses and cars.
For two guys making the same x amount of money if you have one that is frugal and invests in real estate he will have more money than a guy buying a new car every few years, trying to impress friends with expensive clothes, etc. Eventually the guy that invested will be able to have all those things too.
12:30 Robert Kiyosaki nowadays runs conferences where he pushes his products (books & board games) with panelists that try to push financial scams, from reputable financial author to large scale grifter.

I know this is your easiest to produce content and your deep research videos contain some excellent info. But, Mr. Bagel, this stuff is hilarious.
Kyosaki has ALWAYS been a grifter. Period. In the 90s and 2000s he just hired a lot more PR , PLUS there were these midnight shows on TV, before internet and he was up there with Ginzu Knives, flipping houses and Ron Popill "set it and forget it"

Silver is an industrial metal. Currently there is a high demand for it with solar panels.
But it is not rare.
this was fun to watch. between the ones that misconstrue information and the flat-out cons
On the second “advice”; by the time you’re looking at what the top companies are in an index they’ve usually already experienced 80% of the returns they’ll have had and are largely overvalued with future growth priced in because well…..now everyone knows about them. This is why investors have such a difficult time outperforming the market with individual companies because they literally just buy the top before the investable happens which is a rotation into a new set of high growing companies 😂 Sure enough there’s10 companies out there today no one is talking about that in 10 years time will be on top of the index leading its returns……the real skill and the gamble is in projecting what those companies will be and buying them now.
Precious metals have a huge premium cost. Gold has to go up around 20% to break even.
I know right, you're better off just buying unique gold jewelry, then the gold value is just a backup while you wear it XD
@@danycashking you’re better off stay miles away from all gold. Gold jewelry is just an invitation to be robbed. Dont show off money.
Not sure what you mean. I'm sure there are plenty of terrible deals out there, but also good ones. I own some gold for diversification purposes, the premiums I'm paying are less than 1% on buying or selling. Gold tends to be inversely correlated with other major asset classes so I think it's a good way to reduce volatility and risk in a portfolio. Haven't been disappointed by the returns even though that wasn't the primary purpose.
If you are buying in one ounce units from a reputable dealer, the markup is more like 3 - 5%.
Brilliant as always Richard. Your discussion with your fellow portfolio manager colleague put me onto the CFA course (currently studying for my Level 1 exam) so thanks!
Precious metals, especially gold, generally don't increase in value. They maintain their value while fiat currency decreases in value, this creating the illusion of precious metal appreciation. The industrial application of platinum and silver gives the market an incentive to artificially decrease the price, making purchase of those metals somewhat speculative, but still pretty safe. I view the purchase of precious metals not as an investment, but rather as a store of value - if I buy $5000 worth of gold today, that gold will be worth the equivalent of $5000 in twenty years, whereas saving $5000 for twenty years would inherently decrease its value.
People generally are predisposed to see patterns where there are none and not to see patterns where there are. There are exceptions to this in your Buffets/Gates etc.
Love the 4.7m chick casually using her head to block the -36000
It's probably not even her account. She's using stock video from the internet.
Two points :
- This kind of videos are not only really funny, but also informative. While your "community" is probably not the same as the one of Grant Cardone, we still have our biases.
- Talking about Grant Cardone ; where can I find that investimment that returns me 10% per month ? "Getting an allowance of 300$/month, buy a piece of real estate that pays you 30$/month"
Everyone sounds like a genius during a bull market, and as they say, empty cans makes the loudest noise, a lot of smart investors are quite low key and humble people
This is actually my favorite youtube channel
As someone who's read Rich Dad Poor Dad, it's just a crappy rehash of The Richest Man in Babylon. Kiyosaki keeps pushing real estate for some reason and at one point he actually tells you to join an MLM 🤦♂
Real Estate is actually the most common way to become a millionaire. It's not quick or easy, especially compared to how people talk about it, but it's effective.

Much needed video, since the clown market made a full come back this year. Can't wait to see what kind of degeneracy people are coming up with now.
7:07 You made a small reasoning error here. While it is true that only a bout 10 stocks provided most of s&p500 gains in 2024 these are not the only stocks that outperformed the s&p500! The reason they did is because the S&p500 is market cap weighted. But when people invest in individual stocks they do not purchase market cap weighted amounts, but rather similar amounts of each stock. So, as of today about 165/500 s&p500 stocks have actually outperformed the s&p500 in 2024, not 10/500. Which is a big difference. Means if you picked only 1 stock at random you would have a 33% chance to outperform, not 2%. Calculation becomes a bit more complex if you pick >1... Your overall point still holds though.
correct, and not only that but index funds generally aren't static, some S&P500 companies weren't even publicly listed years ago, and some who are performing poorly now used to be juggernauts, if you invested individually in the long term your portfolio could also go down with them or miss out on up-and-coming stocks, an index fund changes with the times hence the long term decent performance as well.

Those quick doses of heavy metal get me every time. Love it.
Kyosaki wants everyone to buy and hord silver. I find that hilarious 😂
The gold and silver thing amazes me. The sales narrative conflates backup currency value and growth investment potential as though those two conditions aren’t 100% antithetical…
Platinum's value fluctuates more like an industrial metal due to its wider range of industrial uses, while gold behaves more like a traditional precious metal.

You only need to buy the winning lottery.
I love that you brought up David Graeber
Would love a history of different forms of money\value video
With you being a portfolio manager, I'd like to see you make a video discussing modern portfolio theory. Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger have spent years discussing why it's terrible, yet it's still taught in all the colleges and practiced on Wall Street. I'm curious what your thoughts are on that.
Tarot analysis. I’ve seen it all
Always love your no nonsense approach ;-)
When the world needed him most he returned.
Thank you Richard Bagel
In a world full of absolutely horse sh** we all need a Plain Bagel ❤
$300 a month allowance? At one point my parents couldn’t even give me lunch money.
lolol the look at the "500 to millions" is why i follow you
Nice shout out to Money & Macro. Another great channel in the space.
Love these Tiktok reviews. Younger kids need to realise the early grind is all a fad to sell courses.
the tarot seems to be the most accurate LOLOLOL
I've come to realisation about educational content creators on social media platforms, i used to think the creators with more subscribers/followers and more views, would be the ones that give the best and most accurate facts, and education, and be the most trustworthy ones. However, i now realise it's the opposite as those channels play the algorithms to get the most views and sales of their courses, which means they need to use human psychology, which is the backbone of growth on these platforms; this means they use: fear, clickbait thumbnails and titles, make you feel like your better or more aware, than other people if you watch their videos or buy their courses. On the other hand, smaller creators don't care about getting lots of views, or selling their courses, and their main focus is giving the best high quality information, so they're much more trustworthy. I now mostly watch smaller creators, when it comes to education.
I love your content Mr. Bagel. Keep up the good work 👍

Robert Kiyosaki and Grant Cardone actually serve a really important societal function... Anytime you hear someone touting them or linking to one of their videos, you can feel extraordinarily confident that a) that person is a bottomless sucker who's susceptible to the most obvious grifters; and b) that person will never contribute anything interesting or valuable to any serious conversation anyone will ever participate in.
As a time-saving mechanism, they're basically unmatched...
what happened to Robert Kyosaki? I wondered myself for a long time. I learned some good things from Rich Dad Poor Dad which still holds value but his interviews are crazy to watch!
Got a forex ad in this video 😂
Fighting to avoid taxes always bothered me. You can avoid most of the big rip-off taxes and get down to the same 20% an average worker pays. Just pay the 20% and avoid the nightmare of fighting with the IRS. If you pay a million dollars in taxes, you'll be the last person they investigate even if there is some minor error or strategy at play. Just deduct the right stuff and give yourself a set salary.
Schemers may earn more in the short term, but a virtuous man has security.
