I enjoyed this heart touching video. I felt like a millionaire when my husband and I paid a lawn spray service for weed control/fertilizer instead of buying "weed and feed" at a store and spreading it ourselves.

Hi, I started my 250k portfolio last year with SCHD, VOO, and VUG after watching one of your videos. In terms of share price, VOO is way up (22.25%) and VUG is waaaaay up (39.62%). Thanks for the education! Will this provide solid cashflow?

Thanks for sharing these volatility tips. Seeing the volatility in the market can cause anxiety for me. This is another reminder to stay cool and collected.

I had a conversation with someone where I shared that the best time for me to work out is 3 AM. He responded by saying, "I could never wake up at 3 AM." I replied, "I know." He asked, "How do you know?" I answered, "Because you just said you can't." Everything starts with your mindset.

It's a common misconception that when a stock you buy skyrockets, the smart thing to do is sell it (or at least sell some of it) to lock in your profits. But the context matters. If the stock has increased sharply because the business is performing exceptionally well, it could still be a bargain. I'm still looking for companies to make additions to my $350K portfolio, to boost performance. Here for ideas...

This was a really good video with lots of practica advice. Loved the clip of your child sneaking in the back. I recognize that look she gave you. 🤣

Hmm if you truly enjoy playing golf a membership to a private golf club may be worth it if it means not having to wait for tee times at a public golf course or being able to play golf with out feeling crowded or rushed. A private exclusive gym that is never crowded so you never have to wait for a machine or a bench or a squat rack may be worth it vs always having to wait for someone to finish their set or having to try to work in with someone at a cheaper gym that more people go to. If this gyms is in multiple locations throughout the US or the world then you know you can get in get your workout done and get out quickly regardless of where you are without having to wait. Similarly if a private club gives you more unfettered access to activities you truly enjoy then it can be worth it for that reason. Stealth wealth would not be not belonging to these clubs but rather not talking about it or mentioning your membership in them. You go to a private exclusive gym, workout quietly and efficiently and leave and don't mention where you workout. Or you go play golf but you don't draw attention to where you play golf when not on the golf course.

I used to work as an investment advisor. The advice presented in the video is excellent and holds true for the average American. While it's a fact that money can't directly buy genuine happiness, it does provide the means to access experiences that can lead to happiness. However, for individuals with a substantial portfolio, say around $5 million, if you observe closely, you'll find that most people in their 70s are still quite active (I live in LA), but by the time they reach 80, their activity levels tend to decline. So, it's essential to enjoy life at some point before it's too late. That enjoyable vacation might well be the experience that brings comfort in your later years. It's important to distinguish between spending money wisely and squandering it. Be prudent in your value-conscious spending.

I always thought of having a spacious house with a classic car collection, gym, other things but have a small apartment as a way to test if the woman in my life loved me as a person and not a paycheck.

Brilliant tips, thank you for sharing

This is so f'n boring.

I agree you pay less fees when investing on your own, but…. I’ve been investing for 4 years, 2 years on my own and 2 years with an investment advisor. And I have to say I’ve invested a lot more when I have the accountability of someone I have to call and tell them not to take my auto draft this month, then when I’m doing it myself.

I followed the thumbnail and purchased Nothing Phone (2)

Stay the course. That's the best strategy for investing. It's always good to have a long term view when investing. In 20 years the market will always generate positive returns.

I do a lot of these things as well minus the glass dish’s I use plastic and I only meal prep for a week I like the glass idea though

I just dollar cost average. I’m always buying and holding and I never stop

Please, what are the equivalents on Trading212? Thanks

When I started investing last year, I avoided significant mistakes. I've focused on investing modest sums in stable businesses for the long term. If stocks perform well, I hold onto them; otherwise, I reinvest losses into profits. Recently, I made $9.5k from a $4k investment in NVIDIA.

I’ve been going the slow route and passed a quarter million net worth recently but I struggle because some of my closest friends took more risks and are already multi millionaires and retired. It’s tough navigating between the two types of wealth building strategies.

So HSA is tax free after you are 65 like roth ira that is 59and hafl?

What happens if I’m not sure I will live in the US my entire life. Is it still worth investing in 401k?

Very informative

In june 2024 some stocks experts are saying stocks that will skyrocket by year end 2024. Stocks like MRNA. BBY. UPST. PARA, SQQQ. TDOC.❤❤

My advice to new investors: Buy good companies stocks and hold them as long as they are good companies. Just do this and ignore the forecasts and market views which are at best entertaining but completely useless.

How much will I have to invest to get a dividend of $1200 Per month?

A weird thing ive noticed is that my one account has $20k and swings by a couple hundred dollars and i dont bat an eye at that. I just started an account (<$100 atm) through my bank and it moves a few cents and it's got me doubting opening the account. I know it'll all pan out, but i get the emotional response.

I have to disagree with the car part. I love cars since I am a little child and I always wanted to drive a fast and sporty car, like a Porsche. If I have the money to buy one, I would definitly do it!

Tae, I want to follow JL Collins and others play on just investing in VTI and VOO (no bonds for me I have a lot of years ahead of me). Only thing is those ETFs are at all time highs or atleast towards those highs with a massive spike up over the last 5-7 years… that said I want to sell everything else and move my 90% sell off into VTI VOO for overall new investing strategy and safety for 30 years+ What’re your thoughts? I’m nervous I’ll sell off my stocks, buy into the ETF to high and get crushed in a high buy that’ll take however many years to recover.

Volvo gets the ladies?

Listened to this one a few times. It's a good one for a amateur investor constantly plaguing themselves with the question: "Am I doing the right thing?" My emotional investment ups and downs could also be charted in close correlation with the market's. After listening to this anxiety's down and calmness is up.

Appreciate you addressing the Real estate asset class and the pitfalls to it. It is great for another asset class, but far from 100% passive

Great info 👍 👌 👏

I am investing into the S&P500 and I was scared poopless when the balance dropped :(

Personally, I feel like you have the best investment advice on YT. Dave Ramsey for getting out of debt and Tae for making your money grow. No BS, no shortcuts. Love it and keep it up. Probing nuance wins.

good stuff! aloha fr hawaii!!!

Love the videos and knowledge and email letters

I have 100% in stocks, I am 33 and I only invest with what I don’t care about losing so.. as long as I can still eat healthy, live a comfy life with eating it from time to time and so. Mind investing the rest and seeing it going up and down

In b4 the spam comments "my favourite 3 channels are blabla" Tae you gotta do something about them, all love man ❤

Love your channel

How about holding cash in a money market making 5% rather than bonds?

Bro, my kids can pay for their own fucking college

The story about your wife is beautiful. You don’t see that nowadays

Index funds don't produce "exceptional" returns. That's just spin. By definition, they produce average, mediocre returns.

You can also buy these items at garage sale and resale stores 😊

Latte without sugar is still ok so I tell myself 😅😂
