Things appear strange right now. the value of the US dollars is declining due to inflation, but is increasing in comparison to other currencies and commodities such as gold and real estate. People are flocking to the dollar because they believe it is safer. I'm worried the rising inflation will cause my $420,000 retirement fund will loose value. What else can we do with our money

In light of the ongoing global economic crisis, it is crucial for everyone to prioritize investing in diverse sources of income that are not strongly reliant on the government. This includes exploring opportunities in stocks, gold, silver, and digital currencies. Despite the challenging economic situation, it remains a favorable time to consider these investments.

[@Robertgriffinne]

This is true. Particularly in the stock market. There are several opportunities to generate excellent returns, but such intricate transactions can only be carried out by seasoned market professionals.

[@traviswes7082]

Very true, I find myself lucky enough exposed to money management at an early age. Worked full time when I was 19, purchased first home at 28, fast forward time... I'm 50 now, got laid off March 2020 amidst lockdown, a blessing in disguise. At once, I consulted an advisor to stay afloat and with subsequent investments, I'm only 15% short of $1m as of today.

[@instinctively_awesome8283]

40 is not too late to start. My science career didn't start paying me a significant salary until I was in my late 30s. Until then I was getting $30k/yr. I took the advise of my guide who i mirror her model then it rocketed up to $100k/yr in my 40s. I started saving $1600 per month into my 401k. The trick to saving is to NOT grow your lifestyle to match your salary. I retired early in my mid 50s with close to a $2M net worth and over $1M invested. For safety, I did not dip into retirement savings and allowed it to continue to grow as I approached 60.

[@daniel-willows]

My take away from this video IS the fact that I need an action point. You are totally right, in that no matter how much content I consume, nothing will happen if I don't act.

[@chennaimarketerr]

I totally agree, I'm 60 and just retired with about a million in outside retirement funds, no debts and very small dollars in retirement funds compared to my balance of portfolio over the past 3 years to date. tbh, the role of an invt-advisor can only be overlooked, not denied. Just do your research to find a reputable one.

I really appreciated this video, as a medium-term *VRI TOKEN* holder. I know you commented on not many people paying attention to this, but it was very relevant for holders such as myself. After watching your thoughts, I willbuy more. I also remember your earlier assessment. This will crush the market.

[@MarioDuch]

The thing I took away from this video is that you can actually still make money as a web designer. I thought that this was way too overcrowded, but I’m going to look into it and actually learn it from scratch to get all of the basics done and really level up my skill in this area. Thank you so much Ali for opening my eyes.

[@emmanuelosele3659]

[@johnscotland8382]

Webflow and framer seem to be the popular options to learn…. The case study Ali mentioned who took 6 months out to learn uses Webflow. I’m tempted to learn this and do it alongside my side hustle of video editing.

@@johnscotland8382 Have started learning Webflow today. They have a great beginner course on their website. One that is actually fun to go along. I'm also going to be learning Figma to get better at design. I have used it before, but it was a bit overwhelming. So I'm going to take a course on that as well to learn everything that I can.

I hear that, but the truth is advisors role can only be overlooked, but not denied. Amidst the rona-outbreak in January 2020, my portfolio worth $350k steeped down by almost 10% due to the pandemic crash apparently. At once, I consulted an Advisor to avoid a costly mistake, my account has now generated an impressive yield and leverages on 7-figure as of today.

[@instinctively_awesome8283]

Impressive yield. Things I love to hear! I like to stick it out on my own, but many false predictions lately.. Who is this person you use in particular? Vanguard Advisors take forever to pick up, I am not cut for that.

[@akhilpaineni6672]

The take aways for me are: 1. To think of a value you can provide before jumping into the how to make money directly. 2. You need a skill to provide value

[@jenlollygag6815]

I got to the end of the video and took away so many valuable things! The most important one is that you have to provide value to your clients. Then the J-curve thing about content businesses. I loved hearing about how different people started their own thing. It inspired me to explore what I wanna do then find clients in-person or off freelancing sites. Such a great video!

[@lllindseyyy111]

First of all, I am a student graduating soon and have been feeling lost as to what direction I should go as this chapter of my life closes, and finding your channel today has already sparked so much motivation and inspiration for my future, so for that I just want to say thank you! To limit this comment to just one takeaway is difficult but one idea that has been consistently highlighted for me recently is the idea that if you dedicate the time into developing a skill, it will reap benefits which has always felt daunting as I struggled to find something I felt intrinsically motivated enough to stick to; however, this video has shown me that if I just start and take consistent(even if small) efforts towards one of these endeavors it will pay off. My next step moving forward is going to be to research more deeply the ideas mentioned that peaked my interest!

[@adarshtiwari7395]

Hey even I graduated last year being directionless. It's been 1.5 years and I still don't feel I have a direction. But by learning from such videos I've made it a point to explore different things... All the best to you friend. You're not alone.

[@ChadDickinson-in1fr]

I completely agree, The first $100k was the toughest, and I didn’t really start seriously investing until I was 30 back in 1998 today I’m 55 and have a decent $3.2M nest egg, thanks to the careful supervision of my financial advisor, because been burnt buy the market can really be frustrating

[@wonhur885]

Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

[@wonhur885]

Such market uncertainties are the reason I don’t base my market judgements and decisions on rumours and here-says, got the best of me 2020 and had me holding worthless position in the market, I had to revamp my entire portfolio through the aid of an advisor, before I started seeing any significant results happens in my portfolio, been using the same advisor and I’ve scaled up 750k within 2 years.

[@wonhur885]

Having a counsellor is essential for portfolio diversification. My advisor ASHLEY AIRAGAHI who is easily searchable and has extensive knowledge of the financial markets.

[@KianaMylz]

I've learned that persistence really is key. For the past years, I've been watching about side hustles and started some courses but never actually finished them. I found it too draining especially that I'm studying medicine and our curriculum is quite packed that my day is spent in class. I end up choosing to take a break then go back to studying. I will be doing more research about how I can utilize my skills and decide on settling on one and then hone it before adding more. I have taken interest in web designing and might actually choose it as a startup. I just stumbled upon your channel this morning, and I would love to learn more from you. Thank you very much!

[@carolandrade9221]

I absolutely loved this video. I was just scrolling through yt when I found your video. The way you explaned things kept me very concetraded and inspired me to run after what I was procastinating my entire break. It also opened up my mind to stuff that I didn't know about and helped me learn knew ways of approaching people.

[@Jo09886]

Personally, my key takeaways in the video were the concept of the J-curve and the task of writing as a side hustle. The idea of the J-curve stuck to me because it cemented the idea of a quote that I read, "trust the process", which literally means to trust the process and things will eventually go right for you. Another takeaway for me was writing as a side-hustle. I know personally that I'm not an adept writer however I do like to read occasionally, and sometimes I have ideas about things that I read and would write them for my own personal pleasure. Currently Im a high-school student graduating to college this year. Thank you for the video as it gave me many insights and inspirations about what to do next in this upcoming chapter in my life.

[@hoangtran2931]

I'm a Vietnamese teacher of English in Vietnam. I teach IELTS. From watching your videos, I'll embark on the KZbin journey as soon as I get myself a band 8 IELTS certificate. I love doing videos and watch them grow in audience counts. All the other side hustles look too intimidating and tedious to me.

[@juanmanuelzuletaceja9789]

My key takeaway it’s that in one hand combine your personal inclinations, even passions I would say, with a way to make profit out of it. And this is a better way than to just sell all your resources into a not personal development job, that also works and it’s pretty straightforward to perceive the benefit (the salary) but still takes your vital energy away. Thanks for the content, truly enjoy it!

[@user-bl2fm1qw8m]

Thanks very much for this video. Its definitely pushed me to take more steps forward. I think my biggest problem is holding myself back. I get in my own head, sabotage my confidence, and just feel locked up in my own thoughts. I've lost that connection to my creative side, and am struggling to get it back to even come up with ideas that I think I could move forward with.

[@YR_Edits98]

I got three major take-aways: a- You've got to be really good at what you do b- Use the third door (That's what I've been doing wrong) because honestly it's very difficult to stand out on freelance platforms asa beginner specially c- How to write a good cold email (Haha) Nice informative video🤩 Keep up the good work!

[@hikerlion7427]

Your video came in at the right time thank you so much for this video Ali. One thing I took away from this video is no matter which idea I try to implement from these the key is hard work needs to be put in for me to get better at the thing overtime that would be the first notion I would have to walk with. Ali videos like these are amazing please keep creating videos like these that inspire people to become financially free. Thank you so much for the abundance of value you provide.

[@Emperor101.]

Been watching your content for over 3 months now and it's safe to say that your stuff is well organized and articulate . I have a tiny background with coding using python and im going with web design

[@meghnaseervi]

Yes I stayed till the end of the video. As I am planning to start something of my own, my key take away is analysing my style by the kind of content I am liking. Your aesthetics are clean..no mess, my eyes can catch up to the graphics that pops up i.e. speed of the video is good and last but not the least I feel related to it somehow😅 Thank you.

[@chibicas]

Hey Ali, I have to say you did a good job showing that it's something bigger than just a "hustle." It's the value you want to create and plant seeds for the long term because in the end we all want money to nudge all of us to become more secure in life. The biggest take away was not how this side hustle can make me a few dollars a month to save but what do I as a person can do something of value to contribute to other people's life. It's something I find interesting and something I wouldn't mind transitioning to if I considered it as a full time job. I'm happy that you set the intention of a side hustle as it being something that can enrich your life rather than it being something you have to endure.

[@mikachili]

Thank you so much for this, Ali! i think this is just the motivation i needed to really get started and not be afraid or overthink things. I was a 1st year uni student studying graphic design but unfortunately had to drop out this year due to financial issues. I vowed to myself since to use my skills (or also work on new ones) to provide services and hopefully save up or at least not rely on my parents 100%. Been seeing your videos since i started high school and now i'm in uni, watching this makes me think how crazy it is that you still manage to say the right things to wake the hibernating motivation within me or just change my perspective on things. Somehow i find it amazing that a lot has changed since then but here i am writing this comment as quick as i can because i can't wait to start planning and get on with my projects.

[@gelilawudu7719]

I always try to find ways to make money so quickly. One thing I took away from this video is that it's important to take time to teach yourself a valuable skill and really be good at it. And also keep pushing even when you're in that negative zone because once you get past that, you are only going up! Be patient and do not give up! Thank you, Ali!

[@allieisabela]

I watched this video while doing my hair getting ready for a girls night. I have watched some of your videos in the past, and there's always information I'm able to grasp in your videos, especially for this one in particular. Thank you for your insightful thoughts !

[@AlexandBooks]

Thank you for the shoutout Ali! And yes, curating content is a great way to become a content creator and once you have a big enough audience you can monetize that attention through sponsorships, courses, or other products.

[@himangeetandan]

I have known the skill of designing (only basic not like pro level or something) but hearing that, there are very less good designers out there, it motivates me to upskill myself and this can increase my income to 10 folds..Thanks Ali for bringing this perspective ✨️

[@nishilparmar8213]

There are lot of good side hustle mentioned in the video but the ones that I really like to go for are the service provider i.e thumbnail creator and web development. Currently I'm learning to make a website and I have made up my mind to create a service that I can provide as a side hustle. Appreciate the work man 👍🏻

[@KyleRahgma]

Well explained. Thank you for bringing up this video. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject ..... Thanks to Gianna Everett the lady you recommended.....

[@JeffersonYatza]

Wow, you know Gianna too? I thought I'm the only one she has helped work through the fears and falls of the forest. Her trading last week was amazing and the strategies she applied were mind blowing...

[@CatherineFazul]

It's always an honor to have you here as a mentor, and it has encouraged me in making decisions about my finances that changed my life. Imagine my initial startup budget of $2,500 gave me the profit of $10,500 in just four days. I must say that working with Gianna Everett is the best.

So I loved the idea of starting a newsletter. I'm gonna keep all my materials ready in order to start writing as soon as possible.

Hi Ali, I'm a student who used to teach jounger kids and help them with homework as a side hustle. Now I'm searching for another side hustle. Your video made me realise than any project takes time before starting to create a reasonable amount of money, so what I took away from this video is that it is not useless to start learning a skill even if it seems hard in the beginning and even though it doesn't pay off straight away. i would love to become a web designer so I guess I'll start looking into that!

[@simonoliver8584]

You talked about writing and coding. Those are literally the skills that I am trying to teach myself but still hitting the blockbuster of my own laziness. What I have taken as food for thought is 1) The law of making money. highlighting Delight as a keyword. 2) Effort so as to receive the succulent pay, for there is no quick way of making money without investing in the effort and time. Thank you Ali

[@franckp99]

Really love your content - succint, thought provoking. And this is definitely way better than all the side hustle videos that I've seen because it gives you the tools to think about side hustles for yourself. The J curve concept truly stands out and emphasizes the work you have to put in before making money. All of that is great especially when you're doing something you're passionate about and love to do, which is the right kind of side hustle

[@kevvonkev]

Three takeaways for me are: ACT on the idea you have (instead of going to this loop of just searching up and watching side hustle ideas videos) and be CONSISTENT and PATIENT, commit to the idea, continue posting, CONNECT with people who you already are delighted to consume their service and serve(delight) them with your skill.

[@emelyanovamasha]

Content curation (and writing)❤ I want to finally start my little creative side-hussle in that. Also liked the part about research assistant. Thank you, Ali, your videos are always valuable, motivational and a delight!🎉 Of course I watch them till the end 😊

Hello Ali, I came across your video a couple months ago but didn't take nothing from it. A couple months later I came across your video again. This specific video helped me decide what I want to do as a side hustle and to help me get some sort of income while I'm in college. I am struggling financially with college at the moment but watching your video gave me hope to find ways to make money with a flexible schedule!! I would love if you kept making more videos to inspire college student's that are struggling financially just like myself!! I hope you have a blessed day and I thank God for having people like you in this world!!🙏🙏

[@drag00n_rl92]

Thanks Ali! I started watching to get ideas for my sons who are high school students and job hunting. You've given me ideas for me and for them as well. I will be sharing this with them. There are so many options out there and web designing sounds interesting.

[@no-hustle]

LOVE how you shine a light on how it needs to be both Fun and Flexible, as well as providing money. When it comes to side hustles, this is too often overlooked

[@kylaalaina]

My biggest takeaway is definitely that more of my time needs to be spent on learning a high value skill! Moving forward, I’m going to learn more about writing as well as web design! They both seem like great skills to have. Thanks again for the video 😊

I changed my jobs during covid and recently went back to being a student and I am definitely going to check out becoming a remote sales rep! Thank you for this video.

[@mohdsaalim9635]

I am an engineering student who started doing freelancing in early 2022. Opened my own marketing agency but was unable to give it the time that I should have because of constant pressure from college things. The thing I took away from this video is that it reminded me again about the freedom one get when he or she have the money to do the things he love or enjoy doing . I still have 2 of my old clients and will now try to focus more on improving my skills and give more time to the agency.

My action point is to forward this video to a friend who is looking for a side hustle and very capable in the skills you are mentioning, so thanks a lot. Personally, I have always hustled as a student and loved it. In the past few years after graduation I really focussed on increasing my payrate at my day job what I totaly recommend. Now thay that is kind of settled I will be spending next months looking for side hustles that fit my interests and qualities. Thanks for the ideas!

[@learnwhbk]

I am honestly not looking for a side hustle because I don’t have time to put in for it. However, I enjoyed watching this video because it encouraged me to “feel good” when I’m begin productive, like studying for nursing school, and working my full-time job. Thank you!

[@lanarhoades849]

The biggest takeaway for me is that a side hustle should be flexible and fun. This is a valid point: without fun and flexibility, a side hustle would be a second boring job, that takes away from my life, rather than enriches it. The video was long, but in my mind, it could be divided into two main sections: the kinds of side hustles, and then examples for each side hustle type. You gave good examples that illustrated the point. I like learning from real-world examples, so thanks!

Great video Ali 🚀 Definitely agree that content creation is a J curve. Effort does not equal reward at the start. Most people want instant gratification and don't have the patience to wait. That's why I feel you really need to be somewhat passionate about your particular content niche otherwise the temptation to walk away will be too high.

[@noticeablybetter]

Wow. Isn’t that the case. That J curve hurts at first!!

[@sane_ator3253]

Out of all the side hustle videos I've watched over the years, this one really spoke to me. I think the difference isn't that this video yields unspoken truth, but more because I finally feel ready to launch something of my own - an idea. Overall, the concept of laying the ground work + consistemcy = success, is a self-understood concept, but Ali you really gave us many tips and suggestions with real-life examples of 'how' exactly we can build the groundwork. I'm starting as a UX/UI designer, and alongside that, from this video you helped me recognize I have a plethora of skills, and I just need to focus on distinguishing them from general to really create value. Thank you!

[@nimom6200]

This is high level advice! My take out is 1. No free money, you have to provide value for a client 2. The differences between service and content. My big take out is to quite trying to make easy money and work on becoming the good at something and that requires patience! Thanks and congratulations on the new book or not so new!

[@JozeKaren]

I am a lawyer here in Brazil, and I am extremely frustrated with the practice of the profession in my day-to-day life. I have a mindset that sets me apart in the legal field; I seek innovation, I seek productivity, and I also value my well-being. I believe that this mindset of mine, which has been my advantage in the legal field, will eventually lead me to leave the legal profession so that I can earn what I truly bring as value.

Ali, you actually changed my life and that too for free. I am from India and your videos on studying and how to take notes really played a big part in landing a job in bank. I'm so grateful to you. I would like to be a content curator or research assistant because I think I would be really good at that because I love reading and consuming insightful content. It is quite entertaining to me and doesn't feel like work. The only thing I need to learn now is how to curate content because I'm already consuming great content, I mean content related to growth, history, science, arts, etc. Thank you again and I recommend your channel to whoever is close to me and in my age group or younger than me. ❤

The company where i work started terminating employees and got me realized that i need another income aside from the one i got now. I then stumble upon your video giving me the information and insights for me to do research, to list down what i can do/provide, what skills that i need, what do i have that i can utilize, etc. For me, this video is like a nudge “go and do it!”, so thank you for that.

[@zaneleolwenkosi3263]

My take home from this video is learning an new skill, being consistent and perfecting that skill can go a long way for you.

[@calvinwong8115]

I personally liked your philosophy on side hustles, where it's not being ungrateful but the freedom that comes with it. My main takeaway to starting side hustles is deciding which business type (J-curve /not) we are comfortable with, and then working hard on improving a skill of interest before monetising it. All while being aware that it takes time.

[@lilypeterson3715]

Personally, the part about webdesigner really resonated with me. Especially because I've always been interested in coding and webside building but never took the time to learn the skills. I guess, coding just seems intimidating. But I think it will be a great hobby to take up in 2024 and hopefully something I can then later turn into a side income as a student who could very much use the financial breathing room.

[@tinaskies9601]

As someone who has worked in biology labs all my academic years, I thought a research assistant can work only in labs. I didn't know or realize authors also need research assistant. My take away and action point is improving my already existing researching skills and make money by being a research assistant for an author or write my own articles. By the end of this video I got a topic to write online related to research. Your videos are always inspirational and very informative. Thank you! ❤

[@ankitajain1604]

[@Hassan_Ali_02]

As a master's student I found the idea of working as a Research Assistant pretty relatable. I will surely search for RA jobs now. Thanks Ali for this amazing video.

[@on9francisyu]

I also love the idea having good side hustle.

[@faizareads]

Same!

[@hollybartlett7017]

My takeaway was that there are so many sidehustle opportunities out there. I never even thought of thumbnail design before as a job. It's very cool how you can be self-taught these days and find opportunities like that, but I'm glad you emphasised that it takes a lot of work to earn a decent amount of money. Great video as always

[@nickalos44]

Action point. Honestly planning and organizing an online shop for prints and Tshirts. Getting back into graphic design again. It's been on pause for years but it's something I can passively return to and apply just general art practice to again.

[@AbdulMateenKhan-lz4pk]

Thanks, Ali! I love your videos and I take notes for almost every video. One of the points I noted was the quote "You make money when you provide value to people who are delighted topay for what that value" I found this quote very helpful in explaining the laws of business.

[@NomadFilmstudent]

Hi, film student here. I watched this video mainly to understand how people use their skill sets to generate income without employers, and I very much appreciate that you took the time to "philosophise", and actually explain the principles of side hustles. I found it very useful and plan to incorporate your ideas into my own work structure and see what I can do using the unique skills I have available. Thank you so much!
