The Post Office is a beast. People don't understand. Every job has a salary but with the Post Office you can double or even triple that base. 12 hour shifts is common for the Post Office and if you work both your layoff days that can be good money. But you spend all your time at work. Nor much time to enjoy life but that's the Post Office
I make between 68-71k yearly depending on how much overtime I decide to do. I work 8 hour days 5 days aweek. I'd much rather spend that extra time with my wife & kids. Plus the wife makes 5-7 k less than I do. At 35 my house is completely paid for and I have no debts or loan. Learning financial responsibility is a must. My son is 11 & I'm already teaching him about saving & spending.
That’s absolutely awesome Enrique. It’s important to teach the children. I wish I would’ve learned this stuff in school. They should teach it in school too. But they don’t. So we need more like you to continue teaching the next generations forward how to save, invest, and learn to spend accordingly.

I had kind of assumed postal workers were underpaid (certainly less than 45k), especially considering all the turmoil USPS has been subjected to recently. I’m so glad to hear they are paid reasonably well, since they certainly deserve it. These folks work so hard and do the public a great service. Wish we funded them adequately.
He must be working 10-12 hours everyday, coming in on his days off, that's the only way he would make around 90 and I kinda think he is not really making that much maybe 80k, his base salary is 41k so this don't add up to me as a mail carrier in California. Right now panda express and fast food in California pays more than the USPS

I feel like this is sorta sad though? He has to work so many hours that he doesn’t seem to have much time for himself, his mental health, or to truly spend with family. 12/13 hour work days 6 days a week is super unhealthy and it’s terrible that we live in a system where that’s encouraged and applauded.

$90k is a lot but not enough for certain postal service jobs. I've seen the older mail carrier people around here and they get a lot of stress put on their bodies from the crazy amount of walking to doing it in all kinds of weather. I once had to put posters on doors in about a 1-2 block radius going house to house and my legs turned to jello...and I even lift weights...so it's a tough job.
Wow, $100/month for childcare...you guys are really lucky to have family close by, to do it, I pay $1600/month or more if my baby is sick and has to stay at home - that's $20K/year
America glorifies unhealthy work/life balance so much. Working 12 hours and you need 8 to sleep. That leaves you with 4 hours to be with family, only if the schedule aligns. This is so toxic. There are counties where you can make this money and have a good life too. Or counties where you don't need so much money to have a good life.
Only very few ppl think deeper into what's really happening. Trust me that schedule will break a body down. Overtime should be short term schedule. Something he is not telling on how he got the $ to invest. But ppl will say your jealous. I'm actually seeing for his age something is not adding up.
I was actually a little disappointed at the reaction of the guy walking 25 miles a day. Although there are probably some health benefits with walking daily, I was more empathetic to the exhaustion and pain he must have felt carrying heavy loads of mail on his shoulders and walking 25 miles a day-in all types of weather, up and down hilly terrain, and probably try to avoid the occasional unleashed dog. Calling this healthy seemed a bit tongue-in-cheek. I'm a factory worker who has worked up to 12 hours a day on my feet and this man's work routine sounds exhausting even to me.
@@MRkriegs that does not negate the exhaustion, or the wear and tear on a body, from 12 hours of working hard. This guy is making enough money because he's working overtime and working super hard. Not everyone even can work that hard. Lots of really great decisions and hard work and sacrifice here and that's pretty impressive, but the perspective of the wealthy on how "healthy" 6 days a week of 12 hour shifts walking 25 miles a day is more than a little out of touch.
@@PurpleDog06 He just said that he'd stop doing it in about 5 years. He's just building at the moment and once his cash flow gets more passive, I doubt he'll continue delivering mail.
@@PurpleDog06 "taste bitter before sweet." He's putting the work in now to invest in his and his families future. He said that he doesn't plan on doing this for the rest of his life, which is both good health wise and for the health of his marriage/parenthood. My thought is: Long term if he should decide to stick it out and gets an easy route, he can can put more hours in the office and spend less time on foot and have a hefty retirement package with minimal effort. I know of someone who does so and will retire with plenty of money to burn while still being a part of their families' lives. Everyone is built differently, so unfortunately it's not for everyone: that's a fact. But if homeboy can grind for a few years working for the post office and he sees that he can do his job well without killing himself while investing into his future and still be a good father/husband; he can still have time to spend with his family and retire early if he invests his money wisely. Not all people stay at a job because they HAVE to, some actually enjoy the nature of said job and they're smart enough to not let it consume them.

Walking 25 miles a day isn't "exercise" get real! This dude's feet and joints would be destroyed if he kept that up long term. Also, ever heard of a healthy work-life balance? Working 70-80 hrs a week is a shortcut to an early grave. I'm so tired of people who push this narrative that you're lazy if you don't want to work yourself to death. People deserve to earn enough money to have a good life in 40 hours. Stop buying into this bullsh*t and demand to be paid a fair wage that allows you to have a life outside of work.
D LG, there is nothing wrong with a little hustling to get ahead. Rather than “work life balance” I would refer to it as “work life harmony” based on one’s goals and values.
@@sunrise7937 You may have been brainwashed by the corporate puppeteers who want you to work yourself to death for their gain. I'd rather work just 40 hrs a week and have a full personal life as well and, despite what we've all been propagandized to believe, that is not asking too much.

Our ancestors used to spend days at a time walking. Walking is one of the best exercises you can do, it's low impact on your joints and not strenuous on your muscles. Once conditioned and with adequate rest 25 miles isn't beyond realm of possibility for averagely fit ppl.
12-13 hours each day 6 days per week. No thank you. Too much overtime. Find a job with a better salary. This guy doesn’t work “hard” per say, by choice. He works a lot of overtime because his base salary is poor.
Nah dude, 90k is like 2x the median us salary and homes in his region apparently only cost 130k so he definitely doesn't need to work that hard just to get by, I mean he even got himself a rental. This guy just want to be rich. That being said, if he were to put half that time into learning a useful skill instead of grinding he'd be rolling in dough.
I can't imagine 12-hour days walking 25 miles per day. That is a pace for a young person. He says he wants out of the post office but if he was to get promoted to management he might want to reconsider. He and his wife seem to have their priorities straight. A lot of men pick a woman that is only interested in how she looks and what she can buy. I am glad he recognizes that his wife is doing her part.
After studying the trajectory of great assets like real estate, dividend paying stocks of blue chip companies, gold, etc. my conclusion is that most great assets never come down to the price that you want them to so you can buy. Just buy the ones you can afford today.

Smart man, great financial choices, and great partner in life to achieve your goals in like. One thing about rental property is that you have to deal with the maintenance depending on the condition of your property and the tenants who may nor may not respect your property.
Just because you work hard doesn't mean you're a great person Mr. Wonderful. I applaud the post office guy, very admirable, but it doesn't mean others who don't bust their balls working are bad people or not good enough. That's the message I get from Mr. Wonderful. Be a workaholic and be happy/successful. This is wrong.
Just find something you love. Everything takes effort even spending time with kids. Just keep the effort going throughout the day. If it makes money, cool.
He didn't say that. Just because he said he's a great person because he works hard doesn't mean he's saying you're a bad person if you don't work hard. A -> B does not imply B -> A. That's a logical fallacy. There are plenty of reasons of why someone could be a good person, and working hard is just one of them.
Ikr, it seems like the sort of job that it’s fulfilling in a right way… you’re helping people, you getting an excellent amount of exercise, you mentally challenged but not too much and your days are quite interesting
Me too. It's no walk in the park, and it's not like you're an Uber driver and work as an independent contractor and choose your hours, however the work itself only seems technically difficult, because of the long and draining walks, in all types of weathers when others don't think of leaving their house, severe heatwaves, rainy and snowy weather, but the actual job per se, seems pretty simple to me.
Within a 2.5yr timeframe I invested $50k into 401k and $40k into 457 with 5% match from a company I worked at before I got let go. Additionally I put $18k into personal stocks on SoFi and put down $16k cash on my car (which I now only owe $10k on). I'm attempting to make a TH-cam channel, in the process of getting a USPS job (takes quite awhile) and have a side hustle. Some day I wish to succeed even further! I'm excited about the future and what it may hold for me.
During the pandemic I took a job throwing trash (2 years). I have a side business which does well, but I was getting pudgy and couldn't travel so it made sense. Made 120k per year, both years. Worked hard, got in great shape. I was average; guys there were clearing 150k. By the way, that's take home numbers. The contract i was on was 4 days a week , with opportunity to take ot two to three days per week extra (i usually did not). If you want to make mad money and get super fit, go do that.

You could buy a house for 100- 150k, it just won't be in Toronto. Just saying, whether it's a conscious choice or not, staying in a city where you can't afford what you want is your choice.
Let's be real just because you make 100,000 a year doesn't mean that your house is worth 100,000. Most people buy houses worth way more based on their income.
Ppl in America live so good. Being able to make 45k and not only just survive but he can pay to live comfortably. Not just pay to live but he can save,invest,and buy a house for 100k wow. Truly the land of opportunity. In Canada if you make 45k you can’t even afford to live….

As a dude in the Philippines, I make about $400-450 a month (which is a little more than most folks doing the same work I do), don't pay rent (live with grandparents), but I pay about $200 on food (food prices in the PH is sameish to that in the US), another $100 for electricity and $30 or so water. I can't imagine how I'm gonna survive if I have to pay rent.
my mom did taxes for a bunch of postal workers. She said that the pay and benefits are good, but all these folks have repetitive stress injuries and parts of their bodies that just don't work when they get older. "Healthy" has a dark side, here.
The Market has been pretty bad until today it decided to surge. Everybody was Practically Crying then. It kept dipping. That's what you get when you feel you can navigate the process on your own. Big thank to Hilder Ferguson. I'm not bothered with how bad the Market is because my assests are insured due to her advice and I still receive my profits
There's a big difference between working to live the life you want vs letting work judge your life. 12 hours a day isn't some crazy new thing, what is different about this guy is that he does this to live like nobody else in 10 years, some people work and 150k and are broke. It's about mindset sure more money does help but that won't solve a spending problem if you already have one.
Apart of it is how their Union Contract works. Anything past an 8 hour work day becomes overtime. Anything past 9 hours becomes double time so on average a carrier starts at 21 an hour so if you hit double time everyday for 3 hours you make 42 an hour on top of that if you work a 60 hour week you get a 50 percent bump on top of what you make.. I work for USPS and in 3 months I made roughly 20k. The money is there if you put in the grind and understand the work contract. Also, any carrier that is a regular carrier makes double time for the entire 8 hour shify if they work their off day.

I love this. Covering the regular joe is extreme well-worth watching. I wish him nothing but the best.
Thanks
Ur nuts. This guy has been taught to be a slave. He could of worked that overtime for 4 months and invested that money and made 150,000$ in short time in crypto or regular stocks during covid. Kevin oleary is really saying this guy needs someone to teach him how to have money work for him. Smh. Straight slave.
@@yaggaprince true but that’s better than the nothing that most People are doing. If he sacrifices a few years 1-3 it’s ok. You just can’t do it forever.
@@yaggaprince Partially facts. I notice he consumes some materialism that aren't necessary. If he focused more of his free time on trading stocks and put most excess money into that, he would no longer be a slave. Mfs love to say "keep saving in IRA!" holy crap is that such terrible advice, people completely disregard the potential of the stock market. Always saying save,save,save, not LEARN to make more money in your free time. LEARN MORE, SAVE LESS.
Not a regular joe. He's has the work ethic of the 1%. He's working towards a mass of passive income which is goals.
I like how he was excited to about him walking 25 miles a day… I don’t think he knows how exhausting that really would be…
It's far worse than just exhausting. It would ruin your feet and joints in a short time. Nothing to be happy about!
@@dlg5485 Actually it's a lot more harmful to be sitting all day in an office doing computer work. People live shorter lives when they sit many hours a day.

I’m surprised by Mr. Wonderful’s reaction to this. Seems truly genuine.
I deliver pizza and make about 70k per year: its good to see someone on the delivery grind making it good.
Bro wtf fr?
@@rogeliobarraza1772 yeah. I averaged 52.5 hours a week last year. 27.979$ per hour (averages of course)
Theres also gas and car repair not taken out of there, but theres also cash not included in that 😉
@@Epidombe Bro I’m mind blown lol Never heard of anyone ever making that much delivering pizza. You need to be in an episode on here. Lmao 🐐
@@Epidombe what pizza place pays their drivers $28 an hr? def not Dominoes lol
@@Ray03595 def domino’s. My secret is to leverage OT. As I have found out, in WI when you hit OT you got to 1.5x pay, even on the road. So you actually get a 9$/ hour pay raise. Since youre busiest on weekends you basically guaranteed that pay increase for all of your hours on the weekend
Walking 25 miles/day is far like marathon far. That's not healthy. That's abuse.
$90k is a lot but not enough for certain postal service jobs. I've seen the older mail carrier people around here and they get a lot of stress put on their bodies from the crazy amount of walking to doing it in all kinds of weather. I once had to put posters on doors in about a 1-2 block radius going house to house and my legs turned to jello...and I even lift weights...so it's a tough job.
Wow, $100/month for childcare...you guys are really lucky to have family close by, to do it, I pay $1600/month or more if my baby is sick and has to stay at home - that's $20K/year
Have you tried going to Social Services for Daycare financial help? I know in NC child care is free until June (unless they decide to continue it).
@@yumiko0017 I have not, thank you for the tip!
America glorifies unhealthy work/life balance so much. Working 12 hours and you need 8 to sleep. That leaves you with 4 hours to be with family, only if the schedule aligns. This is so toxic.
There are counties where you can make this money and have a good life too. Or counties where you don't need so much money to have a good life.
Only very few ppl think deeper into what's really happening. Trust me that schedule will break a body down. Overtime should be short term schedule. Something he is not telling on how he got the $ to invest. But ppl will say your jealous. I'm actually seeing for his age something is not adding up.
100%. Glorifying people burning themselves out to make a decent living in the richest country in the world is dystopian.
This is so awesome. Great to see men with a great work ethic, good financial acumen and love for his family. Stay blessed🙌 😇
Jordan has such a good work ethic and he is a nice human being 🥰
Thank you
I was actually a little disappointed at the reaction of the guy walking 25 miles a day. Although there are probably some health benefits with walking daily, I was more empathetic to the exhaustion and pain he must have felt carrying heavy loads of mail on his shoulders and walking 25 miles a day-in all types of weather, up and down hilly terrain, and probably try to avoid the occasional unleashed dog. Calling this healthy seemed a bit tongue-in-cheek. I'm a factory worker who has worked up to 12 hours a day on my feet and this man's work routine sounds exhausting even to me.
Look at the guy, he is in shape. Better than most Americans
@@MRkriegs that does not negate the exhaustion, or the wear and tear on a body, from 12 hours of working hard. This guy is making enough money because he's working overtime and working super hard. Not everyone even can work that hard. Lots of really great decisions and hard work and sacrifice here and that's pretty impressive, but the perspective of the wealthy on how "healthy" 6 days a week of 12 hour shifts walking 25 miles a day is more than a little out of touch.
@@PurpleDog06 He just said that he'd stop doing it in about 5 years. He's just building at the moment and once his cash flow gets more passive, I doubt he'll continue delivering mail.
@@PurpleDog06 "taste bitter before sweet." He's putting the work in now to invest in his and his families future. He said that he doesn't plan on doing this for the rest of his life, which is both good health wise and for the health of his marriage/parenthood. My thought is: Long term if he should decide to stick it out and gets an easy route, he can can put more hours in the office and spend less time on foot and have a hefty retirement package with minimal effort. I know of someone who does so and will retire with plenty of money to burn while still being a part of their families' lives. Everyone is built differently, so unfortunately it's not for everyone: that's a fact. But if homeboy can grind for a few years working for the post office and he sees that he can do his job well without killing himself while investing into his future and still be a good father/husband; he can still have time to spend with his family and retire early if he invests his money wisely. Not all people stay at a job because they HAVE to, some actually enjoy the nature of said job and they're smart enough to not let it consume them.
Yes sir 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 we love to see a hardworking man in these streets ! Hustling and taking care of his family !!

My parents have both worked for the USPS 15 years+ and now they each make 37 an hour plus time and a half for OT
It all starts in the home, your dad was a fantastic influence in you life and your work ethics. But let's not forget it is you who decided that you were going to take this route! There are many that even with a dad at home get outside influences changing their life decisions and taking the easy or wrong path. Any strong determined individual can get on the right path if they want to no matter where you grow up!
Impressive young man! It’s good to hear these positive stories. I’m learning finance only in my late 40’s, but I’m also teaching my teenager what I’m learning so she gets the benefit of knowledge at a young age.
I started teaching my children about finance when they were in elementary school. Now in college they both have healthy savings accounts and good work ethics.
being a carrier is so hard… props to this guy
working 12 hours a day walking 25 miles is healthy? sounds like he's being massively underpaid
90k a year especially in Memphis is incredible
He should be paid more, USPS pay is horrible for all that walking and work, the pay is $20 dollars, when UPS pays $30+, for a federal job is unacceptable

$220 for food. I don't know how that's possible for a family.
It's a baby which eats significantly less and 2 adults and the grandmother probably feeds the kid
Walking 25 miles a day isn't "exercise" get real! This dude's feet and joints would be destroyed if he kept that up long term. Also, ever heard of a healthy work-life balance? Working 70-80 hrs a week is a shortcut to an early grave. I'm so tired of people who push this narrative that you're lazy if you don't want to work yourself to death. People deserve to earn enough money to have a good life in 40 hours. Stop buying into this bullsh*t and demand to be paid a fair wage that allows you to have a life outside of work.
D LG, there is nothing wrong with a little hustling to get ahead. Rather than “work life balance” I would refer to it as “work life harmony” based on one’s goals and values.
@@sunrise7937 You may have been brainwashed by the corporate puppeteers who want you to work yourself to death for their gain. I'd rather work just 40 hrs a week and have a full personal life as well and, despite what we've all been propagandized to believe, that is not asking too much.
@@dlg5485 I respect your point of view and hope you do the same. Some of us don’t mind working extra hours to go after what we want…especially if we are in able to do so. Been in the military for 28+ years and not corporate brainwashed.

Forget your life, forget your love forget your humanity for someone who would trade you in for a nickel at the first opportunity. I'm glad for this working shortage I'm glad about this virus. Maybe for once people will think of those they stepped on. We live in a world with soo much information but no one thinks!! They carry on left and right ideas. Never their own! We have machines that give us all we could ask but leaves us all in want! Machine that slowly become not our property but corporate property. You see the world through marching orders. I see the world as a never ending rebellion.
Our ancestors used to spend days at a time walking. Walking is one of the best exercises you can do, it's low impact on your joints and not strenuous on your muscles. Once conditioned and with adequate rest 25 miles isn't beyond realm of possibility for averagely fit ppl.
12-13 hours each day 6 days per week. No thank you. Too much overtime. Find a job with a better salary. This guy doesn’t work “hard” per say, by choice. He works a lot of overtime because his base salary is poor.
Nah dude, 90k is like 2x the median us salary and homes in his region apparently only cost 130k so he definitely doesn't need to work that hard just to get by, I mean he even got himself a rental. This guy just want to be rich. That being said, if he were to put half that time into learning a useful skill instead of grinding he'd be rolling in dough.
@@semkjaer3581 oleroy just exposed more govt. waste.
45k a year is not poor lol. So many people only make 2k a month and would live make 45k a year.
I can't imagine 12-hour days walking 25 miles per day. That is a pace for a young person. He says he wants out of the post office but if he was to get promoted to management he might want to reconsider. He and his wife seem to have their priorities straight. A lot of men pick a woman that is only interested in how she looks and what she can buy. I am glad he recognizes that his wife is doing her part.

They work hard now while they're young so they don't have to do it when they are 40, 50 and 60. These young people get it, so many people do not.
After studying the trajectory of great assets like real estate, dividend paying stocks of blue chip companies, gold, etc. my conclusion is that most great assets never come down to the price that you want them to so you can buy. Just buy the ones you can afford today.

Smart man, great financial choices, and great partner in life to achieve your goals in like. One thing about rental property is that you have to deal with the maintenance depending on the condition of your property and the tenants who may nor may not respect your property.
Just because you work hard doesn't mean you're a great person Mr. Wonderful. I applaud the post office guy, very admirable, but it doesn't mean others who don't bust their balls working are bad people or not good enough. That's the message I get from Mr. Wonderful. Be a workaholic and be happy/successful. This is wrong.
Agreed
Just find something you love. Everything takes effort even spending time with kids. Just keep the effort going throughout the day. If it makes money, cool.
Of course! But many can relate to him. Projects, learning, work, family- these things bring pleasure to my life.
He didn't say that. Just because he said he's a great person because he works hard doesn't mean he's saying you're a bad person if you don't work hard. A -> B does not imply B -> A. That's a logical fallacy. There are plenty of reasons of why someone could be a good person, and working hard is just one of them.

Yep only 66-70 hours a week for 45k a year. Plus you may get lucky enough to walk 150 miles a week. Dream job
Me too. It's no walk in the park, and it's not like you're an Uber driver and work as an independent contractor and choose your hours, however the work itself only seems technically difficult, because of the long and draining walks, in all types of weathers when others don't think of leaving their house, severe heatwaves, rainy and snowy weather, but the actual job per se, seems pretty simple to me.

There's a big difference between working to live the life you want vs letting work judge your life. 12 hours a day isn't some crazy new thing, what is different about this guy is that he does this to live like nobody else in 10 years, some people work and 150k and are broke.

I live in Texas but what properties today are u able to mortgage for 100k and childcare for 100$ a month?
This is crazy!
Facts!!
Why crazy
Apart of it is how their Union Contract works. Anything past an 8 hour work day becomes overtime. Anything past 9 hours becomes double time so on average a carrier starts at 21 an hour so if you hit double time everyday for 3 hours you make 42 an hour on top of that if you work a 60 hour week you get a 50 percent bump on top of what you make.. I work for USPS and in 3 months I made roughly 20k. The money is there if you put in the grind and understand the work contract. Also, any carrier that is a regular carrier makes double time for the entire 8 hour shify if they work their off day.
