Our economy struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.

[@PremSteve-yg4de]

Inflation has not always been around there was a 15 year period of deflation. Yes as prices went down income went up. Once you go to Fiat currencies with no tangible backing then inflation is an intentional factor. Patience, Cash on hand & Short Term Investments are key

[@NorthCarolinaForward]

True. I first came across investing in the market in 2019. Already stashed about $480k in savings then, and the free money from the Government was pouring in, increasing inflation rate. I just got an advisor and kept the money there, just because I didn't want to keep the value of the money depreciating in the bank. Tbh, it's the best investment decision I've made since then.

[@samuelrandy-k8x]

I think this is something I should do, but I've been stalling for a long time now. Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach you using their service?

[@NorthCarolinaForward]

Building wealth from nothing involves consistent saving, disciplined spending, and strategic investments. Begin by creating a budget to track expenses and identify areas for savings. Prioritize paying off high-interest debt and establishing an emergency fund. As you build a foundation, start investing in low-cost options like index funds, and focus on continuous learning and improving your skills for better income opportunities.

[@Michaelparker12]

Impressive insights! For beginners like me, managing and staying updated can be overwhelming. Are you an experienced investor or do you have a strategic approach for staying informed?

[@tatianastarcic]

Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.

[@berniceburgos-]

That's quite remarkable! I'm genuinely interested in benefiting from the guidance of such experienced advisors, especially considering the current state of my struggling portfolio. May I know the name of the advisor who has been assisting you in navigating these financial challenges?

[@tatianastarcic]

Well, there are a few out there who know what they are doing. I tried a few in the past years, but I’ve been with Melissa Terri Swayne for the last five years or so, and her returns have been pretty much amazing.

[@geraldt331]

Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.

Such market uncertainties are the reason I don’t base my market judgements and decisions on rumors' and hear-says, it got the best of me in the year 2022 and had me holding worthless positions in the market. I had to revamp my entire portfolio through the aid of my financial advisr, before I started seeing any significant results happens in my portfolio. Been using the same advisor since then and I’ve scaled up almost a million within 2 years. Whether a bullish or down market, both makes for good profit, it all depends on where you’re looking.

Every crash/collapse brings with it an equivalent market chance if you are early informed and equipped, I've seen folks amass up to $1m amid economy crisis, and even pull it off easily in favorable conditions. Unequivocally, the collapse is getting somebody somewhere rich.

[@jessicasquire]

I do not disagree, there are strategies that could be put in place for solid gains regardless of economy or market condition, but such execution are usually carried out by investment experts with experience since the 08' crash

[@Lemariecooper]

The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.

[@annaj.osorio]

It surprises me why everybody gets really worked up about recession and inflation data. Inflation has always existed, and people have been using investments to beat the inflation. The stock market return, for example, always beats inflation. I heard of someone who invested $121k last October, and has grown the portfolio by more than $400k. I need recommendations that can give me similar return.

[@ClaudiaSchreiber-b1p]

Not offering any particular advice, but I can assure you that most stocks still have growth potential. Re-distributing is not as hard as many people think it is. Ordinary investors lack the requisite level of diligence, so having a financial advisor on board is usually highly beneficial. In the market, this is how people generate enormous profits.

It's hard for a Narcissist not to talk about themselves, they are (to them) the most important person in the room. While he has some solid info, he could talk less about himself & how his information can help others. He fails to grasp that not everyone wants to have a 5 Star experience in life.

I think he is humble about it though. Its hard to give financial advice to struggling younger people without first acknowledging your own success (and failures)

[@brucehicks5817]

He is also very honest about how unremarkable he was in his formative years. Maybe the "I'm rich and my life is great" doesn't make him relatable. "I'm rich and I wasn't anything special when I started" is very relatable.

yeah first red flag was Sam Harris think there is something about leftism and atheism not that I am trying to say any religion is better than others but it leaves you open to government taking the place of god. The danger is the deification of government. Doesn't discredit his advice it just colors it. I would say there is a competitive advantage of being "athiest" when it comes to moral qualms but it does leave you open to feeding your narcissisms by embracing B$ morality. Nietzsche was right to philosophize about the death of god because it requires engagement with what morality you choose and think critically about it.

You are the first educated person I have listened to that has compared private school to invested money instead. I say this all the time and don’t understand why more parents don’t view it this way. Love this episode, just found your channel. Great perspective and mindset.

[@Searkar]

@chris williamson I want to clarify something scott is talking about around 1:04:12 in the video, concerning investment banking income. I normally don't hear Scott say anything that I instantly disagree with, or know to be wrong. He is quite an intelligent orator and a careful with his rheotoric. However, he is not correct, when he talks about his friend making $10 million USD as an investment banker, in saying he is paying 52% in income tax. Furthermore, that investment banker, if being paid in excess of $10 million USD, will not be paid in cash or "base salary". There are two options here, an investment banker making $10 million USD either works for himself or works at a large bank (we call these banks the "big 5"). This friend of scotts will only be paid 250-600k in "base salary", the rest will be bonuses- compensation that is NEVER paid out in cash. To elucidate further, the compensation model is purposefully paid in common stock, or similar methods, to AVOID paying taxes like scott is mentioning. Other than that, I love hearing scott talk. He is a terrific and positive voice in the online space at this moment.

[@FirstnameLastname-ef5zj]

No one calls the largest banks the big 5. They’re called bulge bracket banks. And only part of bonuses are kept as rsus, generally most of them are given out as cash. Generally most is cash. Your claim is really weird.

Not sure why there’s so much hate in the comments about this guy. As a 47 year old i agree with much of what he says. My father built a business from the ground up. Nothing glamorous but he provided a good life for me and all of my siblings. He told me I must do the same and provide for my family. I like what he said about choosing career path. Forget about his political views

[@JohnHobitakis]

I like Scott - don't agree with all of his ideas, but he is a positive contribution to society.

[@vthenarheqa]

I'm so confused. He advocates an "extremely progressive" tax system, but then also says "every citizen has an obligation to pay as little taxes as possible"? I honestly cannot follow the logic of people like this. I've listened to him before, seen his talks, and he has some great insight but I just think the lessons he's "learned" or his own life experiences just do not translate well to reality (due to his luck or whatever).

[@kris3451]

But those 2 things aren't logically opposed? Within a progressive tax system, anyone from any bracket can attempt to pay the LEAST they are legally able to. Everyone should be aware of the legal deductions/expenses they are entitled to claim. Progressive taxation is the best for the entire society, and attempting to pay as little as you're legally allowed is best for each individual taxpayer. The 2 actions do not oppose each other.

[@sigacious]

@@kris3451legally, the Fifth Amendment protects me from having to disclose my income to the government. therefore, i can pay 0 taxes.

[@Eric.Morrison]

He said himself that he's a narcissist, and narcissism is deeply rooted in irrationally. Which leads to envy and resentment, and wanting to take other people down. So his MO distills to, "how to be better off than everyone else" while feigning compassion for the disenfranchised.

[@igorbrown3756]

Most of his points are either glaringly obvious or complete nonsense. You cannot simultaneously be pro high taxes and think everyone should pay as little as possible. The only way he can justify that to himself is to blame everyone else for not memorizing the tax code or not being able to afford a competent CPA.

It's a model of how to make money. His financial advice is very high quality. Prof g markets is also one of the funniest podcasts out there, if your humor is as dry as it gets like mine. But it's important to surround yourself with rich thinking not poor thinking. I didn't have it all figured out but this kind of stuff got me into a house with 11 rooms and enough money to absorb just about any problem that can come my way at age 34. The key is to listen and accept while improving, not refute and ignore while regressing. If you don't, the money printing business will devalue your money every single year by at least 2 percent, and likely closer to 5 or 10 in times of 'crisis' especially with the high debt. But see if your position right It doesn't matter. I love when they print money. All it does is bring down the cost of my mortgage. Print, print, print. All of my real money is in equities. But this requires creativity, 50-hour weeks sometimes or 60 when all your buddies want to go out. Mastering my craft when everyone else wants to watch TV etc.

I would not vote for Biden, I simply would not vote for anyone of that age and mental deterioration but factually the last republican president to lead an economic uptick (reduced unemployment increased job growth) is Raegan in his second term (technically both terms but it was really 5.5 year span). but oddly enough every single Democratic president has done that since after Carter. Historically America does its best by a wide Margin having a Democrat in office with a Republican Congress over the last 50 years. there are beliefs surrounding this that you have a wide eyed, compassionate and hopeful leader (the democrat) who is tempered and restrained by a much older, wiser and stern republican congress. Even by age statistically the best age for someone to enter office is 47 which even this should not be that odd if you consider wisdom experience, cynicism, optimism and energy also makes your 40s the best age to start a business (rather the highest likelihood of success)

Get money as soon as possible, because time is not a friend and the allotted time in which you can get the funds to make others happy is limited by that person's amount of life left.

Another recent interview ith Simon Sinek he basically listed all the reasons why young people effed by society, short summary: Living is x more expensive, education is x more expensive, all adjusted for inflation, so in other words, youth today gets paid less and can afford even less with it. When he says things like dont follow your dream, do what you're good at, strive for financial independence, he is just stating what most parents would say and adds an atta boy. You dont have to agree with him.

Ever think that maybe the goal should not be to "get rich in a broken economy?" Isn't that exactly why we keep ending up here? The economy will still be broken, our money will still not be backed by tangible wealth, and the few people who benefit will become our new masters. No, we need a meaningful overhaul, rather than to keep kicking this same can down the same road. Edit: While I understand this video speaks more about what is, rather than what it should be, the people who are able to hack the game and be comfortable living in a very broken society are also going to be very unlikely to want to change it.

[@maddscientist82]

While I agree with both of you, I think the broader message could be: get to a position where you no longer have to worry about these things holding you back and allows you the freedom to aquire the skills and knowledge to make meaningful changes that would allow future generations to do the same thing but with new systems you helped put in place. Leaving the world a better place than you found it, even though you 'profited' from current systems. Easier said than done ofc but it comes down to the individual what they choose to do with their newfound freedom/wealth. If you look at things with this larger perspective and hold onto it, you can make changes you want to see. And while changes like this don't happen overnight, we have to start somewhere.

That’s why the system of broken, the rich will never care about a 10k car, most Americans would love the option to buy a new car at 10k. Best economic system? Only for the rich. Best seen so far?

I can see his logic. I came to believe in god solely because I feel we can never know for a fact whether god exists or not, but I find my life works better when I live with faith that there is a god. I however do NOT believe in heaven or hell. I believe that god empowers me to live the best life now, contributing the most to the good of others according to god's will and with god's support. He finds that it is the belief that there is no god and it's up to him how to incentivize himself to life the most fulfilling life, and for him he uses his narcissism to guide him. So not only does he do better not believing in god, his approach actually depends on it. He's the god of this worldview, and has decided to be a benevolent god. I'm not enough of a narcissist for that to work for me, but good for him. The world is better with him playing the game he's playing than the ones some supposed religious people are playing, meanwhile steady either harming others or simply failing to help when they could.
