    Jeff Bezos told early investors that Amazon would not be profitable for at least 10 years. A lot of investors backed away but the ones who stayed got rich. Patience pays off.

      Yes but did it just make them rich on paper? Did they get any cash flow from the stock in the form of regular dividends, or just an increase of stock value over time? They would have to sell shares in order to benefit their lifestyle.

    Net balance in my Fidelity account has increased 5% in two months. This was accomplished by increasing 401k contribution to 30%, and major investors bailing from the EV development sector. Why did you think the legacy manufacturers are pulling back, besides they don't sell? Also save $1000 every month and keep @ $1000 available to use wisely.. This is on annual $32k gross. A debt free budget is the key.

      It is not waking up and discovering that you have nothing saved. It is a life choice. Most people want everything now and feel they are entitled to have more. I have always dreamed of owning a Porsche 911 S but said that I would not buy one until I had at least $1 million saved. After I passed that milestone I said wait until I have $2 million saved. Now I am pushing it off until $3 million. Pretty soon growing your money becomes more of a priority. I guess that I may never own the Porsche.

      It isn't always easy, that is why it is baby steps. Being aware of where your money is going and how much helps. Once you are debt free and living within your means, invest something then increase it gradually. Calculate what 15% of your income is and shoot for that. If you work for a company with a 401 K put money into it so you get the employer match. Even if you put $25 a paycheck into an account that earns interest, like online high yield savings accounts, over time the interest adds up, and you can gradually increase that amount and open a Roth IRA, then invest that money to get higher yields.

      It's a libility in the send that it doesn't bring or make you money. However, it's a depreciating asset because it still worth something, and over time it's worth less the more time goes and used.

    • @gymnstmini
      @gymnstmini 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      The way I understand an asset is something you own. So a car is something you own (if it's paid off), but it loses value over it's lifetime (depreciation). If you still owe money (have a loan) on that car then it becomes a liability to you.

    • @lindseye2750

      @@missgui4400In pure accounting terms, a car is an asset. Most tangible, fixed assets have a depreciating component to them. In short, an asset is something you own.
      A liability, in this case, is the loan to acquire the asset (if any).
      Your net asset value is the car value less the liability.

      Stop complaining. My car cost $3,200 in 2021. It had a lot of damage, bought it salvage. The mechanic said it was in good shape under the hood, so I bought it. It's the most mechanically reliable car I've ever had. It's damaged on the exterior, but it gets me 37mpg on the highway and about 30mpg in the city. It's been a fantastic investment.

      They talk about choosing the best thing for you financially based on your individual numbers. Will it take 2 years to save for a down payment, that's probably fine to drop investing. If you need to save for 5+years to make a down payment, you need to be investing along the way too.

    Yes but having a house in a 401k that are worth a million dollars is not the same as having a million dollars of income. Increasing cash flow should be the measure of wealth. You can be land or house rich on paper but no income from those assets. If you lose your job, and use up your emergency fund, you will have to sell some of your "net worth"assets to live. Go for investment income.

    • @nae4830
      @nae4830 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Yes!! This point frustrates me too. “Net worth millionaire”. I share your thoughts, you still need cash flow and if they sit on the property it’s not doing anything in terms of generating income unless the person moves to a less priced property. Then there are studies reflecting flatline for houses, no real appreciation due to inflation. AND, what about the total cost of a home considering interest. On average the cost of a home is 3 times that of its original cost when interest is factored in, without considering maintenance expenses. I wish “experts” would talk more about those aspects.

    • @markhines192
      @markhines192 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      In the Ramsey universe being a millionaire is being housed in landport with a net worth of a million dollars but no income. When most other people out in the world think about being a millionaire they think about big cash flow that they can spend. This usually requires building a business that creates cash flow that can then give you the money to diversify your investments or increase your lifestyle. That's what I think of when I hear the word millionaire.

If it rises by 25% the next year, you’re back up to $1 million. The average return of -20% and positive 25% is 2.5%. But you still only have a million bucks. Your actual return was zero.
