One lesson I've learned from millionaires is to always put your money to work, no matter how small. Even investing $100 per month can compound to tremendous wealth over decades. The key is to keep going!
People often don't realize how important financial advisors are. Data from the last 50 years shows that people who work with advisors usually earn more than those who don't. I've worked with a financial advisor for 13 years, and now I have a $2 million portfolio.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up immediately. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
My sister was working in a Nail Studio and the costumers would pay 40-80€ each set depending on how much they want on their nails. Depending on each costumer she needs about 30 mins to an hour for a Set. Made a bunch of money per month and kept the money to open her own Nail Studio. She started hiring people that want to learn doing nails and trained them. Once she had good workers, she started to open her second Studio and it just kept going. Nowadays she only has to manage workers and do some office stuff, since everything is working. Her workers are getting paid over averagely and she earns six figures every year by doing little to no work and having more time for family.
@@MrJohnnyDistortion they stated the cost in Euros so, the rules are probably different (assuming you're talking about the us because you said 'state exam')
People still make videos about zero to a hundred riches.. that thinking is the only way to slow yourself down.. to make money, you have to invest wisely
It is because you must accept that you cannot accomplish everything on your own. When you do not practice division of labor, it is referred to as greed.I made a million dollars trading stocks last year with expert advice, paid the commission since I am not greedy, and the rest was history. Quite easy if you are informed
I've been thinking about going that route. I have a lot of stocks that I have maintained, but they are beginning to lose value, so I'm not sure if I should hold onto them or sell them. I feel hiring your investment coach would make it easier to restructure my portfolio.

Excellent video. We are all striving for financial freedom and a better way of life. It is not difficult to achieve this with wise investing, economical lifestyle, and careful budgeting. I'm pleased I learnt early on to work hard for financial independence.
In my opinion, making a smart investment is not only a technique for earning passive income, but also a profitable way of saving for future expenses. People who fail to make the proper judgments early in life often come to regret it later in life. Nonetheless, investing alone can be difficult and risky. As a result, I recommend obtaining expert assistance (financial advisors). The challenge is not just watching videos and reading investing books; it is about implementing information effectively.
As an OAP with extensive expertise, I am certain that the success of any investment is dependent on getting the appropriate knowledge, regardless of what others think. I made $100,000 while working with licensed financial adviser.
True. Having the right financial planner is invaluable. My portfolio is well-matched for every season of the market and recently hit 90% rise from early last year. I and my CFP are working on a 7 figure ballpark goal, though this could take till Q3 2024.
Sincerely, your remarks have genuinely inspired me. I'm highly interested in investing and have a substantial sum of money that I'm willing to invest with the appropriate information. My greatest worry is losing money on a bad investment. As a result, I'm eager to hear your comments and ideas on how to invest intelligently following your licensed financial adviser.

Investors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor

Generally, investing requires higher knowledge. For this reason, It's important to have a solid support structure (financial consultant) to guide you through especially in asset picking. I operate with (Alexandra Diana Jose) a consultant who partners with a licensed wealth management firm. For the record, the experience has been the best for my finance. She made me financially stable investing through her help, now I earn on a monthly basis through her passive income strategy... So I'd advise you do get a good investment advisor for yourself.
I appreciate your advice. It's hard to find someone that's reliable. When I see how much you've made investing, I could really use your investment advisor. That is, if you don't mind sharing her information.

I still think it speaks volumes about the American lifestyle that a second job is a technical necessity just to achieve any semblance of fiscal stability. If you told youngsters in high school that, for the cost of their 20s they could be free *but* no parties, trips, and just work 60+ hours, you would be heckled out of the room. This is also why such true advice is almost never followed, and yet given away for free: no one wants to hear that the main purpose of, and the bedrock of success in life, is sacrifice.
We are debt free except for our house. Incomes increasing, expenses decreasing, investments growing. Life is good. $5 and ebay replaced my wifes income. Waking up at 5am to youtube and just hit 600 Subs! Pretty pumped at how things are going. Listen to graham and do the things.
Great Video Mav! Maybe make a video on potential investments in this current market that would fetch substantial profit, been coming across articles on bloomberg, business insider etc about folks raking in $200K averagely in 6weeks using some sophisticated strategy and I'd love to know how.
I agree, reason I have all my invt-decisions ran through a coach on a daily-basis, it’s been 3years and counting and I’ve grown over $2million in gains, my coach's-analysis so far has steered me off losses and troubled waters and guided me make the most off major-breakthroughs in the mrkt, and esp. in this downtrend, her safe haven asset- trading, short-selling, ETF shorting skill-set are very essential.
@Dan Brooks Big Credits to 'Christine Jane Mclean she has a web presence, so you can simply search for, there are some others but it might be difficult to get them, but Christine as been a good guide through the year.
To "Canadianize" it a bit... The Roth IRA is equivalent to the Tax-Free Savings account (which should be called the Tax-Free Investment Account -- but that's another story) and the 401K 's Canadian equivalent is the RRSP.
Good contribution, this is super helpful for all us fellow canadians! There are so many american finance channels, it's good to see the canadian version of the information. :)
And to "Quebecianize" it a bit in french.. the TFSA is "Compte d'épargne libre d'impôt" (CÉLI) and the RRSP is "Regime enregistré d'épargne-retraite" (REÉR)
Starting on my wealth journey. Currently have no income and several thousands in debt. So excited to come back to this comment in a year and see how I've improved 👏🏿
@@pkjk1255 I'm cheap I don't waste money I don't need fancy or brand new just a roof and a shower humble so I do as required working long hours and side jobs giving more than is required how do I do all that? Jesus is all I can say it's not about me no more I just do what's right. Consistency is the main goal it don't have to be done overnight.
Now, how does a retiree manage to do this? When I was working and setting up my retirement plan, $30,000 seemed like a lot of money. Two divorces, two careers and a heart attack later, I’m finding this amount of money doesn’t cover expenses very well. So starting from $0 is appealing to me!
@@kylesaunders1661 Actually I was a Captain in US ARMY, had roommates and drove an old vehicle! Sounds like your mindset is your problem! Good try at being a troll tho!
My takeaway: Pick a career or business that's not depend on how many hours you work This well aligns with Jim Roh's saying “You don't get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour.”
I been following his advice and I was making 18k a year now I’m up to 180k a year and growing as long as you follow and make smart choices it definitely helps
Why is no one talking about the casual way he says "more money left over for Lamborghinis and yachts" ?! 🤣 I love it. Thanks Graham. My family think I'm mental when I say I am trying to be a millionaire. I needed this
Between 6pm and midnight? Idk, Graham. A kid's gotta live a life. Dinner, non-screen related time, grooming, exercise, hobby stuff, maybe a little ps5, conversations with loved ones. Ya know, the stuff we invest time/money to do in the first place.
Very valid points. Some people do their side hustles, like a journalist writing their book, in the morning hours before their family wakes up / they gotta go to their journalism job
yeah, as much as I appreciate his frugal frugal approach - the work your ass off he goes on about is gon leave you burnt to a crisp, likely despising whatever you may have even liked doin
There are lots of mixed opinions about stocks and there projection in the next coming years, I aim for short term solid gains from market correction and I'd definitely jump on the boat if I knew a thing or two about day-trading, but then again what do I really know? I'm just looking for the right moves to grow and hedge my stagnant reserve of $370k from inflation.
Time in the market beats market timing. Some people think they can view investing as a get-rich-quick scheme, but it doesn't quite work that way. It's a long-term commitment as you can see from kevin's portfolio performance.
Because of these market uncertainties, I do not base my market judgements and conclusions on rumors and hearsay. I let my emotions get the best of me in 2020, leaving me in an useless position in the market; I had to reorganize my whole portfolio with the help of an advisor before I began to see major results in my portfolio. I'm still working with the same advisor and have made more than $1.5 million in two years. Whether it's a bull or bear market, both create good returns; it just depends on where you look.
@@sommersalt88 Unquestionably, we are only one information away from collecting wealth; I know many people who made their fortunes from the Dotcom and 2008 crashes, and I have examined similar prospects in this present market; might this person who helps you assist you?
My advisor "LISA ELLEN SHAW" is highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversification as a bear market buffer and is considered an expert in that field. I recommend doing further research on her references. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market profitably.
@@sommersalt88 This is useful information; I copied her whole name and pasted it into my browser; her website appeared immediately, and her qualifications are excellent; thank you for sharing.
For my bro’s and sisters that have no education outside of high school. Being a financial planner/ advisor is very lucrative. I’m getting into real estate as a broker and that makes serious money especially in Canada where I live. Real estate in combination with my 14+ year financial back ground it will make me a deadly real estate agent
Watched this twice! Graham’s recommendations: -Listen to people who are where you want to be -Work a job that pays on results not on hours (ex. sales) -Switch jobs to earn more -Start a business -Invest immediately (maximize time in market) -Open Roth IRA -Save as much as possible as soon as possible (ideally more than 10% of income) -Create multiple sources of income (millionaires have 3+ sources of income) -Common sources of income: Salary, Dividends, Capital Gains, Interest Income, Rental Income, Side Hustle -Don’t increase your expenses when you increase your earnings
We are wired, since childhood, to think if we do our thing well (study, work etc.) everything will go well, we will get a career, we will be paid more and more, we will be able to afford more and more, live a comfortable life and we should not worry about anything. Then life happens.
Gov jobs are commonly overlooked If sales and instability isn’t your thing. Get into a municipality if you’re young and just looking to start out, you can transfer to a higher level state job and your pension time will cary over. Pensions are on a decline but they still exist and some states are generous with them
Your videos have changed my life Graham. I’m 16 with 3.2k invested already. But the constant zooming in and out between cuts is quite irritating while watching on my phone
Yes same you should definitely start watching MeetKevin if you don't already because even though he makes so many videos they are all good and organized
I've done all that you've suggested... over the past 40 years. I'm 61 now, and staring at living on the streets... I have a meagre income from self-employment because I was forced into it through redundancy and unable to get a full-time job. Have done what you said about not having the same job for years on end, changed several times, each time increasing responsibility, responsibilities and salary. I've had five properties in my lifetime, all sold at a loss - even though everyone says the market was increasing their value. Right now, I am a single older woman (should be retired, but because the govt decided to increase the pension age without letting me know, I'm still working), with no home (living in a van, not by choice), only £3k left in the bank because I've been spending all my savings on rental (have to park my van somewhere!) and rental on an office space for my self-employment. So, where do I go from here?
Trading in stock market is similar to killing a golden goose. Stocks, like the golden goose, are great cash flow generating assets. Once invested, stocks provides lifetime cash flow in the form of dividends, you just have to know what stocks to pick. I'd recommend Mr Sam Deymon.
I’m working making around $40k annually and this is paying my bills at the moment. I’m also a realtor part time although I’m really bad at generating leads. I have to figure out a way to close more deals so I can put more into my Roth IRA which is currently at $0 📈 don’t feel too bad about your current position ladies and gentlemen but do fix it and grow!
Awesome. $0 Done. I do not have the skill or personality for sales so I guess I'm starting my own business... except don't 90% of start up businesses fail? And don't you need money to start a business? Not sure a business loan will cover everything..
An ice cream truck is a small business. Vending food at festivals and events is another. Just Google "Low Investment Start-up Businesses" and gather ideas.
Happy to say, after years of struggling and watching videos from people like you. And changing my mindset, my wife and I finally cleared a net value of over a million. Still work to do, but I have started asking myself, is this an asset or a liability? I would love to get land for us to retire on, but it makes more sense for us to buy a lake house that we can air bnb out half the year on a lake that has an average of 63% occupancy. So thank you Graham, thanks to you and people like you I have come a long ways. And I am on my way to my long term goal. Keep sharing this stuff, we all appreciate it.
Having a TH-cam channel like this is probably one of the smartest side hustles to have. This Chanel definitely makes a very good amount of money especially for a side hustle
I’m saving and investing around 70 percent of my income in the financial market(high yield etfs, stocks, coins, gold etc) pretty much how I made my first million although with an FA. I have a high paying job, and I live upstate NYC. my expenses are low. I have zero debt, low rent and car paid off. So i can just save. feel lucky at this point I'm actually grateful for Lisa Rosa Cavanagh handling my portfolio, she's the only person i know that's richer than me hahah!!!
Graham Stephen was an AMAZING TH-camr when I was starting up in finance. But now that I’m an avid investor your videos only scrape the surface and it feels like it’s for beginners. I would love to see more complex videos from you. Well done tho you were one of the people who put me on this journey.
Was an amazing TH-cam? You mean he still is. Gotta remember that there are now 12 year olds watching him and me as an 18 year old who started watching him when I was 16 is helping me out. And if it feels like it’s for beginners it’s because it is. Gen z is rising up fast
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. The stock market has plenty of opportunities to earn which I myself took advantage of.. I made my first million from going diverse, mainly stocks, ETFs, coins and bonds. It’s a long term plan for me so I invest and re-invest
As a newbie in the financial markets, the volatility scares me so much and I'm curious as to how you were able to make this much returns in such market conditions.
@@mitchsapastein5593 i made my focus on looking at investing from a long term perspective and watching it compound , and my FA basically was my back bone.
I recently got the same position at another company with a 13.5% raise. I’m all for job hoping if it means your take home is higher. Plus it’s within walking distance from my place and I save £250/month on traveling
Hello graham I'm 14 and lately I have gotten very interested in personal finance. Can u make a video on teaching us where and how to invest money? I'm really confused with the market
shouldve mentioned serving with sales…ive done both for the last 10 years and i average $75k-80k a year serving tables 25-35 hours a week. granted i take pride in my section and more importantly i work at a decent restaurant where management actually cares about their employees with decently high food prices which helps.
Loved loved loved this video!!! Thank you so much Graham!! SO Helpful having everything you mentioned summarized in a visual style! As someone with Synesthesia and ADHD I appreciate you!
I have suffered through this lifestyle inflation thing once... One article that motivated me to avoid it, had a key lesson... Learn how to delay your instant gratification. This will leave plenty of rewards later.
I tried to get my friends to watch your content since it's really beneficial to people in their 20's, but they think you're fake because of your thumbnails.
Graham, one thing to note about the switching jobs to make more money tip: correlation ≠ causation. Meaning that the two are probably correlated because people predominantly leave a job for better pay. So it makes them correlated, but leaving a job by itself doesn’t necessarily mean more pay. You have to first find a job that pays better and qualify for said job. Then you leave and it reinforces the statistic. Hope I articulated that well. Great video! Just wanted to point out that observation.
Oh good! I already have $0! First step accomplished.
:D woohoo!

If you told youngsters in high school that, for the cost of their 20s they could be free *but* no parties, trips, and just work 60+ hours, you would be heckled out of the room. This is also why such true advice is almost never followed, and yet given away for free: no one wants to hear that the main purpose of, and the bedrock of success in life, is sacrifice.
To live a life that most won’t you must do more that what most will. A quote that I remember when grinding and not seeing instant results
We are debt free except for our house. Incomes increasing, expenses decreasing, investments growing. Life is good. $5 and ebay replaced my wifes income. Waking up at 5am to youtube and just hit 600 Subs! Pretty pumped at how things are going. Listen to graham and do the things.
Congrats on the 600 subs! Sounds like you're on a great track :).
Great Video Mav! Maybe make a video on potential investments in this current market that would fetch substantial profit, been coming across articles on bloomberg, business insider etc about folks raking in $200K averagely in 6weeks using some sophisticated strategy and I'd love to know how.
Investing in stocks is a good idea, a good trading system would puts you through many days of success.
I agree, reason I have all my invt-decisions ran through a coach on a daily-basis, it’s been 3years and counting and I’ve grown over $2million in gains, my coach's-analysis so far has steered me off losses and troubled waters and guided me make the most off major-breakthroughs in the mrkt, and esp. in this downtrend, her safe haven asset- trading, short-selling, ETF shorting skill-set are very essential.

To "Canadianize" it a bit... The Roth IRA is equivalent to the Tax-Free Savings account (which should be called the Tax-Free Investment Account -- but that's another story) and the 401K 's Canadian equivalent is the RRSP.
Good contribution, this is super helpful for all us fellow canadians! There are so many american finance channels, it's good to see the canadian version of the information. :)
And to "Quebecianize" it a bit in french.. the TFSA is "Compte d'épargne libre d'impôt" (CÉLI) and the RRSP is "Regime enregistré d'épargne-retraite" (REÉR)
Is their a Roth IrA equivalent in Ireland?

Now, how does a retiree manage to do this? When I was working and setting up my retirement plan, $30,000 seemed like a lot of money. Two divorces, two careers and a heart attack later, I’m finding this amount of money doesn’t cover expenses very well. So starting from $0 is appealing to me!
This is so true! That is what I did. I saved 90 percent of my income then invested it in Real Estate.

There are lots of mixed opinions about stocks and there projection in the next coming years, I aim for short term solid gains from market correction and I'd definitely jump on the boat if I knew a thing or two about day-trading, but then again what do I really know? I'm just looking for the right moves to grow and hedge my stagnant reserve of $370k from inflation.
Time in the market beats market timing. Some people think they can view investing as a get-rich-quick scheme, but it doesn't quite work that way. It's a long-term commitment as you can see from kevin's portfolio performance.
Because of these market uncertainties, I do not base my market judgements and conclusions on rumors and hearsay. I let my emotions get the best of me in 2020, leaving me in an useless position in the market; I had to reorganize my whole portfolio with the help of an advisor before I began to see major results in my portfolio. I'm still working with the same advisor and have made more than $1.5 million in two years. Whether it's a bull or bear market, both create good returns; it just depends on where you look.
@@sommersalt88 Unquestionably, we are only one information away from collecting wealth; I know many people who made their fortunes from the Dotcom and 2008 crashes, and I have examined similar prospects in this present market; might this person who helps you assist you?

For my bro’s and sisters that have no education outside of high school. Being a financial planner/ advisor is very lucrative. I’m getting into real estate as a broker and that makes serious money especially in Canada where I live.
Real estate in combination with my 14+ year financial back ground it will make me a deadly real estate agent
Hahahaha wazzap man are you become deadly today? 🤣
Watched this twice! Graham’s recommendations:
-Listen to people who are where you want to be
-Work a job that pays on results not on hours (ex. sales)
-Switch jobs to earn more
-Start a business
-Invest immediately (maximize time in market)
-Open Roth IRA
-Save as much as possible as soon as possible (ideally more than 10% of income)
-Create multiple sources of income (millionaires have 3+ sources of income)
-Common sources of income: Salary, Dividends, Capital Gains, Interest Income, Rental Income, Side Hustle
-Don’t increase your expenses when you increase your earnings
you missed a very important one: work so much that you don't have any time to spend your money
"What's up Graham, it's guys here!" threw me off in the beginning. Lol
We are wired, since childhood, to think if we do our thing well (study, work etc.) everything will go well, we will get a career, we will be paid more and more, we will be able to afford more and more, live a comfortable life and we should not worry about anything. Then life happens.
“What’s up, Graham! It’s guys here!” 😂 Am I the only one who caught that?

Gov jobs are commonly overlooked
If sales and instability isn’t your thing. Get into a municipality if you’re young and just looking to start out, you can transfer to a higher level state job and your pension time will cary over. Pensions are on a decline but they still exist and some states are generous with them
I second this, especially if you have served in the military or NG. You can buy your time back.
That's because they're a joke, hiring process is months long only to be paid well below market value.
@@GreenJanuary is $120,000/yr below market value? Asking for a friend

I am 14 years old and I'm watching this because I will have a good future.
Your videos have changed my life Graham. I’m 16 with 3.2k invested already. But the constant zooming in and out between cuts is quite irritating while watching on my phone
Yes same you should definitely start watching MeetKevin if you don't already because even though he makes so many videos they are all good and organized
When did you start
Damn how
"Whatsup Graham it's guys here?" 😂
I've done all that you've suggested... over the past 40 years. I'm 61 now, and staring at living on the streets...
I have a meagre income from self-employment because I was forced into it through redundancy and unable to get a full-time job.
Have done what you said about not having the same job for years on end, changed several times, each time increasing responsibility, responsibilities and salary.
I've had five properties in my lifetime, all sold at a loss - even though everyone says the market was increasing their value.
Right now, I am a single older woman (should be retired, but because the govt decided to increase the pension age without letting me know, I'm still working), with no home (living in a van, not by choice), only £3k left in the bank because I've been spending all my savings on rental (have to park my van somewhere!) and rental on an office space for my self-employment.
So, where do I go from here?
Trading in stock market is similar to killing a golden goose. Stocks, like the golden goose, are great cash flow generating assets. Once invested, stocks provides lifetime cash flow in the form of dividends, you just have to know what stocks to pick. I'd recommend Mr Sam Deymon.
0:40 This is starting to sound like South Park. I'm loving it
I’m working making around $40k annually and this is paying my bills at the moment. I’m also a realtor part time although I’m really bad at generating leads. I have to figure out a way to close more deals so I can put more into my Roth IRA which is currently at $0 📈 don’t feel too bad about your current position ladies and gentlemen but do fix it and grow!
Awesome. $0 Done. I do not have the skill or personality for sales so I guess I'm starting my own business... except don't 90% of start up businesses fail? And don't you need money to start a business? Not sure a business loan will cover everything..
An ice cream truck is a small business. Vending food at festivals and events is another. Just Google "Low Investment Start-up Businesses" and gather ideas.
Happy to say, after years of struggling and watching videos from people like you. And changing my mindset, my wife and I finally cleared a net value of over a million. Still work to do, but I have started asking myself, is this an asset or a liability? I would love to get land for us to retire on, but it makes more sense for us to buy a lake house that we can air bnb out half the year on a lake that has an average of 63% occupancy. So thank you Graham, thanks to you and people like you I have come a long ways. And I am on my way to my long term goal. Keep sharing this stuff, we all appreciate it.

Great stuff Graham, basically a Millionaire telling you how to become a Millionaire the power of youtube
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. The stock market has plenty of opportunities to earn which I myself took advantage of.. I made my first million from going diverse, mainly stocks, ETFs, coins and bonds. It’s a long term plan for me so I invest and re-invest
As a newbie in the financial markets, the volatility scares me so much and I'm curious as to how you were able to make this much returns in such market conditions.

You just explained the entirety of financial planning in 15 minutes.
Graham, one thing to note about the switching jobs to make more money tip: correlation ≠ causation. Meaning that the two are probably correlated because people predominantly leave a job for better pay. So it makes them correlated, but leaving a job by itself doesn’t necessarily mean more pay. You have to first find a job that pays better and qualify for said job. Then you leave and it reinforces the statistic. Hope I articulated that well. Great video! Just wanted to point out that observation.
