    40 now, and everything is paid for. Fortunately, I had a college economics teacher who taught me a lesson when I was 18 years old. That lesson was: you can't buy something else for every purchase you make. Having multiple sources of income is prudent, as is living within your means. I have a 13-year-old vehicle because it is all I need, I like it, and I can do whatever I want with it. My net worth is $900k, and I can pay my bills without stress, but I don't live like I have that. I have no complaints.

      I fully agree; I'm 56 years old and recently retired with approximately 1.2 million in outside retirement funds, no debt, and very few dollars in retirement funds in comparison to my portfolio balance over the last three years. To be honest, the financial advisor's role can only be ignored, not dismissed. Therefore do your research to get a reputable one and that should be any individuals main route into the market.

      Yes, I'm in my mid-50s, and a few years back, I moved my investments to my wife's wealth manager. While I haven't caught up to her long-term gains, my current earnings and the growth of my retirement fund, compared to just relying on the 401(k), are pretty satisfying.

    My financial literacy started early. I owned my first shares of stock in elementary school and my mother was the custodian. She was part of an investment club and she explained the basics to me. Her philosophy was simple...buy quality at a good price and hold onto it.

    Yep, first gen Chinese American here, Check all of these boxes and well beyond. My parents and I came from Shanghai, a family of scientists, engineer and business owners. Financial literacy runs in the family. My parents were saving 50% even when our family of 3 lived on my father's graduate student stipend of $900/month. They became multimillionaires and retired after only working 25 years. My wife and I, with 3 kids, almost caught up with their wealth now in our 40s. Just waiting for my kids to get into universities, and we will retire once they finish undergrad.

    I have a regular job, a side income with another employer, a home business that generates royalties, and interest/dividend income. When your side gigs pay your bills you can stash 20%, 30%, 40% of your "real job" in a tax-advantaged retirement account.

    I’m a god of devaluation, I buy it and it goes down! Why I can't make earnings is beyond me. It can be annoying how volatile the market is. How can I ride this fresh wave of all-time highs without getting burned again with $450k set aside to get fully invested this year?

      I think the whole thing about holding stocks for long term will always apply. So I think you should get a quality broker who is able to analyze and pick stocks that will do well in the long term, else you will be in a long bear ride.

    • @BrianMattews-i7t
      @BrianMattews-i7t 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a broker, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 9%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an analyst.

    Hi Alice, got a little question. A canadian wins 10 million$ at the lottery and invest it. He doesn't want to pay taxes on his earnings so he decides to apply to not be a canadian resident and travel full time. Only keep his passport and turn his RBC account to (non-resident) one. If he keeps his money in the non-resident RBC account will he be subject to taxes on the interest earnings? If he leaves canada and take his earnings oversees, is lotto winnings going to be subject to departure tax. Thank you for your time!

    Having a reliable stream of income--at least, enough that would make a material difference--from dividend income would require hundreds of thousands of dollars in capital.
    I don't disagree with it, but, it's not realistic for most people especially if they're under 50.
