    If you straight up have 2 mil and you put it into a savings account you can pay yourself above 80k a year salary off of interest alone. I don’t understand why people instantly start chucking money at random places

    • @michaelpowers6632
      @michaelpowers6632 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I’ll offer you up what my personal scenario would be if I got $2 million.
      My savings account has currently has an interest rate of 4.35%. That’s the highest it has ever been. The lowest it has ever been is 3.20%. Let’s base this off the smallest percentage as an example. This will give me $64,000 over one year for income. This however has not been taxed yet, meaning I need to make sure I save about $16,000-$20,000 per year so the government can take its slice. Now that’s about $46,000 per year take home. Now that amount is livable, but it’s not necessarily comfortable.
      What I believe would be better and also safe is you can put that money into T-bills because those grow state tax free, and I live in Illinois so that means a lot. Those frequently offer slightly higher interest rates, are backed by the U.S. government, and buying a bunch of them for say $5,000 a piece gives you regulated income that is slightly less accessible, and it feels like you’re getting paychecks every month or 2 weeks however you spread them out.

    • @crissd8283
      @crissd8283 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      The biggest problem with this scenario is inflation. If you put it in the savings and make 50k today, your money in savings certainly won't keep up with inflation. You will only get $50k in 2050 and that won't be enough to live on. You need to grow the money enough to keep up with inflation and still have enough to live on. You need a lot more money to do that.

      Yeah, it was weird to me that neither Dave nor John picked up on exactly how much of the inheritance is gone/tied up already. Dave asked how much he had altogether, and the guy said $3.5 million. But then when you parcel it out, he's spent more than half of that already--$1.8 million on real estate, and $220,000 on the boat per his own assessment. So he's got $1.5 million in cash max, if he hasn't spent money on anything else. Dave ran all the numbers based on $3.5 million in investments, when he's probably got much closer to $1.2 million. That's a whole different ballgame, investment wise. Quite frankly, I would be surprised if this guy had anything left five years from now. With no prior experience as a landlord or a business owner, he has already made a series of very, very bad decisions on what to do with this money.

      there is couple caveats. I would be wary of a bank offering FDIC insured account having high interest. Banks will have CD's with up to 5%. These have terms. You can open a brokerage account with one of the major firms. Any "cash" you have in these accounts is in short-term treasuries or similar, and currently have rates of about 5%. Unlike a bank CD, there is no term limit, you can move money around on short notice.
      Assuming your overall income is 100K+, your tax rate is fairly high, 30% incremental, plus state. Interest collected in an account has taxes that need to be paid annually. There are various MF options, dividend heavy, growth oriented.
      You could look for one that holds stocks long term. The point here is value growth is largely unrealized, meaning no taxes due until sale.
      So, 5% interest, highly reliable, but you pay 25% tax ( that is overall tax divided by income, even though your incremental rate is 30%+)
      or, mostly unrealized capital gains, untaxed until sale, then at long-term capital gain rate. So even if return is 5%, there are tax advantages
      life is complicated. learn math

    I believe this guy should do something , but he doesn’t need to work if he doesn’t want to. Maybe volunteer, give something back. But what is wrong with enjoying your life , seeing the world. We only get one life, why waste it working if you don’t need to. If he’s sensible, this guy (who is still mourning btw) is set up for life ❤
