    As an lnvesting enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?.

      Find quality stocks that have long term potential, and ride with those stocks. I have found it takes someone who is very familiar with the market to make such good picks

      @@Kaustavpatell I agree with you. I started out with investing on my own, but I lost a lot of money. I was able to pull out about $200k after the 2020 crash. I invested the money using an analyst, and in seven months, I raked in almost $673,000

    Richness is what you see while wealth is what you don't see. Building wealth is what gives you the opportunities to do what you want and when you want to do it, because it allows you to control your time, which is the most valuable asset you can possess. Ramit's book is a tool, but understanding "The Psychology of Money" (as articulated in Morgan Housel's book) is the key to wealth.

    23.8% Savings for House Renovations
    23.8% Guilty Free Spending Money
    Nevertheless I cannot find an amount I'm feeling good with..
    It's always like I save too little (I am currently at 16.6% 'guilt free' spending and about 45% savings rate).
    I guess the main problem for me is, that I have no idea what I really want to use the 'guilt free' money for. There are some things I'd like to buy but there's always that voice in my head 'you don't necessarily need that - better use the money for others or for savings'.

    Love the content, being a financial counselor the biggest hurdle I see is income. Your video uses $5,000 take home income but it changes a lot when in Detroit your making $2,800 a month with average rent of $1,200-$1,400 so the first 50% is literally just rent 😢 62% paycheck to paycheck

      also 5000 per months after taxes is really a lot and most of the people don't have this amount... it's crazy.. with less income and those % it's hard

    Hi Ramit, I've been following you from Ghana in West Africa and I'm curious about potential investment opportunities in the US or Europe. The outlook for investments in Ghana seems less promising, and I'd appreciate any insights you might have in this regard.

      Have you looked into European domiciled ETFs? You should be able to buy them from Ghana.
      ETFs are very similar to index funds. They're funds whose shares you buy on the stock exchange instead of the issuer directly.

    I prefer to do
    1) 401k only up to 100% of match
    2) Max out Roth IRA
    3) Max out HSA (if you have access)
    4) Everything else into a taxable brokerage
    My reasoning is that I want to keep the possibility open of accessing my investments before 59 1/2 and possibly use my taxable brokerage as a bridge account into retirement.

      You will likely save more on taxes by maxing out a Traditional 401k instead of the taxable account in step 4. There are ways to access retirement account funds without penalty before 59.5.

      @@Miggy2222 Either hardship withdrawals or I believe if your Roth acct is 5 years old? Need confirmation on that. I agree with your reasoning for access. There is really no gain to the roth over standard taxable accounts in terms of tax savings. UNLESS you are taxed at a lower rate when you retire. I don't plan on that being the case. Isn't worth the cost of my own cash being locked behind 10% penalty for 30 years.

    Ramit, I love the concepts you teach and have been applying them- However please address those of us without any 401K or set paycheck. So many are self employed now without any benefits- and living barely above water. 😮
    Please make a video for how to apply these techniques with irregular income as self employed/ gig worker/small business owner. I am currently paying off debt, having invested in education for myself so I can earn more, and have a fixed costs of well over 50% of my THP. (It’s hard. But I am determined.)

    I have my credit cards on auto pay but I still usually log in manually each time I get paid and pay them off. It helps me to know where I'm at because the credit card billing cycle is pretty long. It works for me and I don't find it very burdensome.

    I follow Dave Ramsey but I like your method. I do have to say that I like baby step 2-3 from Dave Ramsey more for getting out of debt and saving 3-6 expenses. That would eliminate your step 2 of the 15%. I feel if I fall short, I can get it from the saving and put it back from that 15% (even though it will be less). That will leave you with more than 10% to invest. I do like your last two category a lot as well.

    Love your videos, because you're straight to the point and not sugar coating it!
    BUT, as your audience is now international (I'm based in UK, for example), did you think of broadening the examples, if possible? I'm looking for something similar that would apply for ppl in UK (and I'm sure ppl from other countries wonder the same 😊)
    Thank you for all your hard work
