    6:00 - One way to enjoy life on the cheap that I heard from Mr. Money Mustache: when it comes to the weekend, make a list of all the fun things that you would want to do over two days. Then organize it by cost, cheapest first. Then, just start doing the stuff on your list until you run out of weekend. You'll have fun (since you made this list of fun things) and it won't cost too much.

    • @leahmcdermott4189
      @leahmcdermott4189 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I basically do this. I spend my weekdays working mostly and weekday evenings chilling with my family, not really interested in going out. But on the weekends, I just have the most energy (still young, early 20s), I’m pumped to get out and about. So will do the things I enjoy/have fun, usually go to a restaurant or club. I’m soo simple and basic tbh, so usually enjoy the cheaper things in life like hikes, reading, watching movies, personal finance content etc.
      I don’t have any very expensive hobbies tbh, it’s just holidays but again, I don’t care about travelling lots. Once a year is fine. So Mr Money Mostache’s principles are pretty easy for me to implement 😂💕

    Love you guys; this is great comprehensive content! I agree with you guys 99% of the time, however, I have to disagree with you guys on pushing Target Date Funds right now.
    Every TD fund I've seen starts you off with at least 10% in bonds even with a long time horizon. With this high inflation/Rising rates environment, that portion of your portfolio is a guaranteed loss with negative real returns for years to come.
    For young people just starting to invest, having any bond exposure right now is just throwing a portion of your "army" on the front lines without a weapon.

    For all parents out there, for the love of god invest in your retirement. If you truly love your kids, you won’t force them take care of you because you lacked basic financial knowledge. You want your kids to use their wealth for their own families, not to pay for you to stay alive, that seriously hinders your kids. It sounds harsh but it’s true. Your kids should want to help you out because they want to, not because they have to. That’s how it is

    Why is the investment tips on gross income?
    Should i be saving 25% of my gross income or 25% of the wage they gets put into my bank account (aka after taxes)
    25% of before tax doesn't make sense to me? To make plans and investment based on pre-taxed money.
    Every month i get x amount of money in my bank account from my job. Tax already taken. That's the money i have to pay my rent invest etc.

    • @TR-lh9yz
      @TR-lh9yz 28 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Some of the investment accounts (traditional 401k and IRA, HSA, etc.) are pretax. So you always start your planning from your income before taxes as the starting point.

    I think I over invest, I'm 19 make 40k a year with OT and I invest in a roth IRA and Roth 401k. I max out my roth, and do 12% towards my 401k (is about $200 every 2 weeks). I feel like i'm investing a bit too much anyone have any advice?

    • @mgtowmonk4274
      @mgtowmonk4274 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Well if your 19 and making 40k. Maxing your Roth IRA and putting 12% to 401k your unvesring quite a bit of money for your age. It will pay off in the long run all the cash your investing now. Great job!!!
      When I was younger i did a similar thing. Problem was When I got a little older and wanted to do some things I was retirement richer and cash flow poorer. I've had the opportunity to change that but, had I started about 5 is 6 years earlier, in your age range, it would definitely have changed the equation. So some food for thought. Sorry it's long winded.
      I would caution you to look at how much you have in savings outside of retirement. You are young so the assumption would be your probably living with parents or guardians and not having to pay rent or much of it if you are. Of course not knowing the full situation it's hard to advise but fallow the financial order of operation.
      If you don't have much as a emergency fund I would set a goal of 6 months to 1 year of spending. It helps if you get laid off, fired, or if you just dont ever want to worry about the rising prices of things. Also could help you if you do decide to go to school, or change careers. You'll see the security blanket and feel better. Im 43 and the last 2 years during the pandemic I thankfully, have been continuously employed. However, I didn't really worry to much about losing my job because my emergency fund would sustain me for quite a bit if it needed to.
      Also if you haven't moved out that savings will happen quickly, but be mindful of what your 6 month or 1 year fund would look like if you were on your own, paying rent or a mortgage. Maybe make sure you have extra cushion. Then when you do get on your own (if your not already) your not having to start saving to increase it then at that time.
      Are you wanting to further your education? Save money for that so you don't go into any unnecessary debt. If your looking to buy a home, start setting that money aside. If your not planing on doing that in the next 5 years get it into a non retirement account and start investing for that goal. That way you get the growth. If it's under 5 years save it cash. Markets go up and down and you don't want to lose any cash on short term investing.
      Maybe save for a car. Is your current vehicle good? Is it paid off? If so having a non retirement investment account set up with 20k to 30k for a car will allow you to car hack if you already have a reliable car. Letting that money grow until you need a car and buying one cash for 10k to 15k and the rest starts building again for the next one. Or allows you to make your "car payment" be like 100 or so for future vehicles on top of it so you can keep up with the inflationary cost. It's something people don't think of doing but is really nice when your older and you can not worry about that expense. You just pull the cash and buy the car. The leftovers keep building and you feel peace knowing you can pay for repairs or replacement should you need.
      There are lots of things you can do at this point. If you are not spending because you have free rent take total advantage and set up your future. Your older self will be thanking your younger self later in life. You'll watch your friends family and acquaintances struggle by trying to be like everyone else always having the new and improved stuff. Chances are they won't fully understand why your calm cool and collected when life's little rainy days don't seem to affect you like they would everyone else. You'll know your covered, cuz you prepared for it while you were younger.

This is something I still struggle with if I’m doing enough or to much. The best advice I can tell you is what my financial advisor told me “What your doing is great but don’t live in the spreadsheet set some money for fun” There’s never to much investing it’s what am I sacrificing to invest this much. If your sacrificing waaaaaaay to much than I would cut back a little

      I agree with what everyone else said! As long as you're not investing so much that you sleep in a shed and eat only what you can scrounge from a dumpster, it's not bad to be investing a lot now. Because investing a lot now means a few things in the future: you will have a ton of money for retirement, or maybe you're able to retire earlier than 65. Neither is a bad situation to be in!

      It depends on what he will be doing with the computer stuff, if he is using it to make money I would be less worried. Sit down with him and learn what he has planned, not to judge either it's a good or bad plan, but to understand what he wants to do. For years many parents tried to get their kids to stop playing video games, but many of these kids have gone in to become programmers engineers, computer technicians, etc. Likewise, there are kids who where into cosplaying as their favorite fantasy and science fiction characters who have gone on to become successful in the fashion industry. Just as many into sports have started their own gyms, become fitness trainers, etc.

    QUESTION FOR THE MONEY GUY SHOW:
    First of all, I would like to say how awesome you guys are. I found the show a few months ago and have been hooked ever since. Also, Bo, thanks for sharing your background in a lot of the shows. I also grew up in extreme poverty, but I have been blessed enough to be able to break the cycle and am now trying to build success.
    The Question:
    My wife will become eligible for a 401k plan through her employer later this year. Should she opt for a roth 401k if possible?
    For context:
    My wife and I are both 23 years old, and we are currently working towards Step 4 in the FOO. I have a pension that I contribute 10% of my income to (my employer contributes 14%). I also contribute a small amount to a Roth 457b. Our household income is right around $100k.

      It depends on your state, and in some cases a trust can protect your family's assets. When someone gets old and long term care, many states require they sell their assets to pay for care before Medicare kicks in. If assets are in a trust, they will be protected and can be passed on to children rather than being sold to pay for the parents care.

    That house purchase age statistic shocks me. My wife and I are 20 & 23 respectively and we just closed on our first house this past May. Of course, that was largely possible due to both of us having no debt, living for our first year rent-free in a building owned by family, and both of us working full-time with a side gig giving us a few hundred dollars a month. Now we're gonna buckle down and get our degrees and start building those savings.

    Hi! I found money guys not too long ago, and really appreciate the insight. My parents have money, but I never really got a financial education. You guys and a few other youtubers have got me more interested in personal finance and making money.
    I had a question/request: you go over what 20s should be doing in general terms, but can you be a bit more specific? You talk a lot about the 20 year old’s dollar being worth more than the 40 year olds because of compounding interest in the stock market, so we should live thriftier and put more in our Roth IRAs. How does this balance for the literal 20 year old, who might not be working a lot because they’re in college, or might be at least partially supported by their parents? Basically, the advice for young people is to invest as much as they can as early as they can because of the growth potential of time. How does that translate to people who have money coming in or saved up while still dependents?
    I’m 21, going to college on full scholarship and my parents pay for my housing and food. I have a fair bit of money saved up from my childhood and working summers, and just got a low-paying, minimal-hours job for during the semester. How much money should I be keeping in an emergency fund/saved for the near future when I expect my present income in to be almost negligible? I don’t want to wait to invest it until after I graduate because of how much less valuable those dollars will be even two years later. Should I keep 1K, 5K, more, less? Thanks so much for all the free financial education and resources, it really motivated me to do something NOW for my financial future rather than wait until I have an actual career.

      The benefit of time is that you don’t have to invest as much to get the same outcome as someone starting later. You may hear them talk about “88 times over”, which means every dollar of a 20 year old is worth $88 at age 65. The same conditions indicate that to have $1Million at 65 you need to contribute $95/month. The recommendation is to work up to contributing 20-25% of your gross income by your 30’s. If you can do those things, you’ll be in good shape for retirement.
      To your specific question about emergency fund, I hear what you’re saying that 6 months income might not be a good indicator. Think about what would constitute an emergency for you. Maybe that’s a car problem for example or perhaps to be able to take advantage of opportunities (unpaid internship, transition from school to job, travel/conference). Sounds like you don’t need much cushion before diving into investing. On your point about inflation decreasing the value of your money, if it’s just a few thousand, a few dollars lost is worth it to keep you out of the ditch. At my age in the 40s, I have to keep tens of thousands to keep my children and family safe through any job loss or significant emergency, and even though inflation is still a downside, it’s totally worth it to not have to worry that everyone will be ok. Rely on your growth assets to stay ahead of inflation overall.

      I’m twenty I’ve been listening to them for a year I keep 5000 on hand. 4500 in my capital one that I can get in two to three business days. The other 500 in my chase bank saving account that I can get access to as soon as possible. I’m in the same situation as you I don’t have debt of any kind and my parents take care of pretty much everything. Now on to the reason 5g well that’s very simple it’s a 6months+ of what I live on. Do the math on what you spend a week times by 4 than by 6. I spend less than the 5g but I feel better if I have a little more incase something absolutely terrible happens. Like both my parents die and I have to take over everything. Filing for the life insurance and figuring out all the mess left behind takes time. I recommend you read I will teach you to be rich it’s a great book a little corny author. I’ll send you a copy on audible if you would like

    Can you explain the aspect of having 3-6 months of expenses in cash. Would you consider investing account liquid enough for this? I am not worried about losing my job. (0% risk of it in the next few years) and even if I lose my job I could get one quickly. Should I still have 3-6 months of expenses in cash? That is between 9k-18k for me, which seems too much. I currently have more then that because I knew the market was overpriced back in 2020, but my plan is to start averaging in soon. I just want to know how much I should put in.

      I can remember when I had a similar feeling after recognizing the concepts and lessons of Carnegie, Stanley, Covey, and Buffett all intersected and even seemed redundant. There comes a point in everyone’s life where you take the education and turn it into action. If you know everything we are going to say memorized I commend you and also nudge you to take the next step - congrats 🍾
