The measures you take to attain success determine your level of success. Creating sound financial habits, such as setting aside money for reliable investments on a regular basis, is essential to building wealth. It's important to talk about financial management, but most people avoid it, which comes back to bother them later. I hope everyone who reads this has a prosperous life!

[@mikey43221]

To be wealthy at this point, everyone's first goal should be to invest in non-government alternative revenue streams. especially in light of the current worldwide economic crisis. Right now, stocks, gold, silver, and virtual currencies are still desirable assets.

[@tmer831]

Investing remains a major goal, but the easiest way to build wealth is to just get started early. Because I made an early investment this time and learned from my mistakes from the prior year, I was able to build a respectable life.

[@DavidCovington-st2id]

I thought about investing in the financial market, I heard that people make millions if you know the tricks of the trade, but I lack good knowledge and a strategy to outperform the market and generate good yields. I have $160,000 but it's hard to bite the bullet and do it.

[@mikey43221]

I think having an investment advisor is the way to go. I've been with one because I lack the expertise for the market. I made over $490K during the recent dip, highlighting that there's more to the market than we average folks know.

[@DavidCovington-st2id]

I'm pleased I found this conversation. If you're comfortable with it, could you share how I can get in touch with the advisor you rely on for your investments?

[@Erikkurilla01]

Ensuring the protection of your capital holds greater significance than solely focusing on making money. This is primarily because once your capital is lost, the process of generating profits becomes significantly more challenging. It is comparable to the notion of "missing the train" versus the irreversible consequence of "losing your money." While there are various opportunities available, once your funds are depleted, it becomes exceedingly difficult to recover.

[@Lemariecooper]

Wall Street advocated for quality stocks that boasted high profitability and low debt, positioning them as a form of insurance against economic uncertainties. However, these quality stocks have underperformed the S&P500 index this year. As a result, my portfolio, valued at around $200k, has experienced a decline of approximately 20%. I am seeking recommendations on how to enhance my investment returns and scale up my portfolio.

[@jessicasquire]

The reality is that nobody possesses absolute knowledge in the world of investing. Therefore, it is crucial to develop your own process, effectively manage risk, and remain committed to your plan, regardless of the circumstances. Additionally, it is essential to continuously learn from past mistakes and strive for improvement in order to navigate the investment landscape successfully.

[@Lemariecooper]

@@patrickbrussels4454 Would you be willing to provide information about the advisor who aided you? As a 39-year-old, I am eager to expand my stock portfolio and devise a retirement plan.

Creating wealth entails establishing positive routines, such as consistently setting aside funds at regular intervals for sound investments. Financial management is a vital subject that many avoid, often leading to future regrets.

[@spacecadet6]

Indeed, currently I'm managing my finances wisely and being frugal. In the last 19 months, my investments grew by 43%, adding over $150K in profits. However, I've had losses in the past month, making me anxious. I'm unsure whether to sell everything or wait.

[@emmaarmando]

I always consult a financial advisor before investing. During the pandemic, I used their strategies to minimize risks and maximize profits, generating around $875k in three years with my advisor

[@noah-greene]

@@emmaarmando I'm intrigued by the idea of investing with an analyst, it seems like a wise choice in today's market. Could you provide me with some guidance on how to get in touch ?

[@Ckawauchi35]

Great video. It's true that freedom is one of the most important things in building wealth. My husband and I have saved up money mainly in 401K and other minor investments for our retirement, which is now. We will spend a portion of it on securing a property in Japan but otherwise, we really have no intention of spending it bc the amounts of money we get fr several different pensions are enough. We've always lived below our means. It is the emotional/psychological security that we will have liquid money just in case. It is one of the factors that contribute to our happiness and contentment at this stage in life. Freedom.

[@johna3836]

I've read over 30 books since the start of COVID and this one's easily my favorite. Great video!

Tae, bravo for going against the grain of most personal finance thinkers. Get rich slow mindset is not popular, but you are a necessary catalyst in getting the word out.

[@thegoodestboi_Monty]

Glad that I found your channel. I've been binge watching and listening to your videos and it has helped me clear my mind about my savings and future investement. My favorite principle that I got from you is to "keep it simple". I also love how simple and straight forward your videos are, no long introductions and no unnecessary informations added. Thanks sir Tae for the advices and looking forward to more learnings from you. Love from the Philippines ❤🇵🇭

[@syedatasneemtowhid8149]

I admire you for the statement "Don't be impressed by false pretentions of wealth". Children are so desperate to look rich, they can go to any lengths, even unethical practices, which ruins them and the system in the long run.

[@MeenaHarlow-kx4fz]

My dad use to rant at me about how he resented spending so much money on my mom. Now that I’m facing some adult issues these things are in my subconscious. When I spend money I feel a lot of anxiety. Today I went to my chiropractor and discovered these memories and released/integrated them physically through the modality of Neuro Emotional Technique. Now I feel calm and ready to think clearly about purchasing. Psychology is huge and our bodies hold on to everything.

[@JLove808]

Hey, Tae is nearing 100k subscribers!! Well worthy of it and I hope he does a special video for it 😁. Glad to know there's so many people that enjoy these as much as I do!

[@excitedaboutlearning1639]

It's 117K now. Subscription compounding works quite a bit like compound interest. It took him a long while to get to 100K, but he's got at least 17K subscribers in two months which is 17% of what he had previously - gained in just two months.

[@sethkramer3834]

Identify your enough: such good advice whether for saving, spending, or investing. Once you've defined your plan beforehand it minimizes the possibility to let others (friends, neighbors, your emotions, etc) drive your decisions.

[@pedrowhite6684]

Soooooo TRUE! This one thing alone brings such joy and, at least from my perspective, brought so much satisfaction and happiness to daily life! Knowing when you have had enough (savings, time, work, investing, etc) is key to enjoying life in general.

Recession is often the result of external factors, and it appears that the United States is losing its grip as a federal reserve currency. With a decreasing ability to control inflation and a reduction in stocks and oil trading, it seems that a new multilateral world order is on the horizon.

Great book! I'd actually recommend this over Dave Ramsey's "The Total Money Makeover" and Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad Poor Dad". Dave's book talks about living within your means and Robert talks about getting financially literate. "The Psychology of Money" goes over both and more.

[@srourfamily]

becareful with cars lots of expenses

Bull, Dave Ramsey actually presents a real financial plan with substance. The Psychology of Money is more concerned with catchy Warren Buffet quotes.

all good but there is a chapter in the book where the author contraddicts himself saying that a concentrated portfolio can bring much better returns than investing just in low cost index funds (and that is what he really does, building a concentrated portfolio). Any comments on that chapter? thanks
