10 of My Best Personal Finance Moves

[@uncharted4076]

1. Basic Programing for Year Book 2. Overclock Graphing Calculator 3. Sold company equipment on Ebay 4. Money from 1st job at a startup 5. Fixed his own car 6. Purchased a house 7. Bought Tesla stock 8. Tesla referral link

No one seems to acknowledge the simple fact that he actually WORKED 3-4 YEARS straight without indulging on some instant gratification purchases. The bread and butter of anyone who holds a sustainable financial background is that they worked a regular 9-5 job for a long duration at some point in their life. Holy hell, it's not that complicated once you get your foot in the door of whatever industry your college major is in.

I made all those mistakes in my first good job out of college LOL - did start up my 401k and maxed it + more but man I bought a lot of shit BMW TAG watch expensive clothes lmao

[@ScoobieDoo-zy1rh]

Back in 88 or 89 I had a car that started running real bad but lucky me I was real near a large retail store that had a big auto service department so I drove in and told them what had happen they looked at the car and told me that unfortunately it was serious and it would be $800.00 and I told him I didn't have $800.00 but he said he could get me a store card so I could charge it and I told him I would have to get back to him and he was good enough to warn me not to drive it to far otherwise I would have serious damage to the engine. On the way home I stopped by a guy I knew that had a garage that worked on cars,trucks and farm equipment. I told him the whole story and he said he would look at it and a few minutes later he came back and said it's fixed it was just a nut had came off there was no charge. He also told me he use to work at that place and the mechanics got extra money for doing this. The sad part is this store I took it to use to be for many years the largest department store in the country. I don't believe it's around anymore.

Sears. Pep Boys tried to charge me $1k for engine mount that was fixed for $200 by local reliable mechanic

[@gersonadr2]

That was very cool BtB! I try to emulate your financial life in my own, I haven't done so well for myself but I always learn from your videos. One thing I'm curious: how long did it took you as an engineer / YTber to pay off the balance on your home? And a video suggestion: your 10 top WORST financial moves. Keep up the great content, cheers!

[@mariahsmom9457]

My parents encouraged me to spend all my money, even though my instinct was to save it. That was a bad influence!

[@Dracomies]

I actually watched the entire video. Had to 2x the speed. Surprised there was no mention of you buying the house :P That, to me, had to be in the top 10. You bought at a great price and at presumably at great rates as well.

[@agungp.2580]

He mentioned the house. Bought at 500k, in 2010. Now worth 1.3 million.

[@Dracomies]

@@agungp.2580 Oh he did! I must have not seen that part haha.

[@Dracomies]

@@agungp.2580 lel. I see why I missed it. He goes over it so briefly at 9:00. Then he talks about Tesla stock like right after it. But yeah, a house is like endgame in terms of finance moves.

[@rn87mom94]

I FREAKIN love that you bought your Tesla with Tesla stock. Brilliant!!

[@ambrsanford3703]

Ha, I haven't seen VitaSoy since I was a kid! Good stuff, but super sweet! And, I very much identify as the same kind of personality. I will delay purchases until I find something I genuinely want sometimes for years on end until I find exactly what I want. Ultimately, I have fewer clutter items and many more treasured ones.

[@specialk22tt]

How did you write your car off as a business expense?

[@annamartinek7998]

Yes I was asking the same question.

[@solchau1]

He never mentioned he used his car for something like Door dash, UberEATS, selling for eBay or Amazon. So I guess he must have used it for his KZbin channel Tesla review and did it that way.

[@Atgul-z6o]

You first need a business that produces income then you can write off a taxable portion of your income.

[@faheeta5036]

Very educational! Thank you!
