To answer your question about life insurance, only reason to buy it when you have some DEPENDANT on your income so if you died tomorrow they wouldn't be able support themselves. This could be a significant other, kids, etc. In this case, a 15 year term is your best choice. Once the kids are moved out and no one is directly dependent on you bringing home money every month, there's not much of a reason to have it. Life insurance premium only get more expensive the older you get and honestly is just a scam by the time you're super old.

[@christopheraplin]

Term should be based on your expected assets/debts/incomes. It made more sense for me to get a 10 year as my net worth by then will be far greater than any outstanding debt or future liability (education,mortgage etc). If I had a lower income or more extreme debt/more children/stay at home wife then a longer term would make more sense. It's fun to take your premiums over the term and add them up and based on your payout if you died, calculate what the insurance company thinks your risk of death is

[@jameshenry9894]

Life insurance is a very complicated product that has a ton of use cases depending on what someone's needs are. There is no blanket use or cost that makes sense for everyone. The differences between term and permanent policies alone are numerous, and one is not inherently better or worse than the other.

[@TheAcenightcreeper]

Thats false…just really wrong.

[@NaudVanDalen]

They sometimes pay more on average than you pay them. I think that's because while you're paying them your entire life, they are investing it and by the time they pay out, they already turned it into more money. The only times that they lose is when you die early. But that's a lose-lose situation for both of you.

[@joelman1989]

Came to comment that this is true. I had a client who is an investor, actually a millionaire, and 60 years old who took out a whole life insurance policy. I could not wrap my head around why he would make such a decision when he has no dependents. His wife is even wealthier than he is. And as an investor, he’s always better off investing his own money rather than through some whole life policy. It just doesn’t make sense to me. But some people don’t get it.

[@Crabby-Abby]

Yeah it's so gross. And that they got their millions of dollars by being "frugal" like??? No buddy

[@lmaoxd2957]

They are not pretending. Most people that watch them know this. But no one will click on a video saying blablabla is why you are poor, they are more likely to click on "stop buying coffee cause thats why u broke bro" Credit cards, multiple studies have shown people are more likely to spend their credit card money than debit/ cash, Research has shown that people are willing to spend more-as much as 83% in some cases-when paying with a credit card instead of cash. Some of them even encourage you to take multiple credit cards to take advantage of the offers they have, its called cc swapping i think not sure. its just you read the title and assumed the entire video. Also that $5 weekly coffee, again just the title, if you had watched the video you know he is talking about compound interest, and the coffee was just an analogy. And people talking about being frugal, again ffs, if you watched their videos, by frugal they want you to start accounting for each expense so you can better understand where your $amc gainz are going, and by being "frugal" you can spot things are a waste of money and hopefully cut back on them, will cutting 5 dolla coffee make you a millionaire, probably not, but getting your ROTH and retirement setup probably will. And thats their video. The not scammy ones mostly make entertaining video and end it with "invest in s&p 500" and thats all you need to do :) and shitty wages, well, thats america for you :) "non skilled" "replaceable" "lets make 14yr old kids start working" all you can do is try to come out better than you started and index funds will do that for you

[@NaudVanDalen]

@@NaudVanDalen that is not your average millionaire, you should have mentioned it earlier, also most of these millionaires who show their wealth have multiple sources of income, upwards 3 sources mostly, the cash they use to buy most of their assets like cars which almost always depreciate, is cash they invested years ago that made them more cash.

Cody, rent seeking is like what Turbo Tax does.

They use lobbyists for public policy to drive up their own commercial revenue streams, either mandating people use their product (less common) or they create a mandated governmental system (like tax reporting) a higher barrier to completion than their own product. Since most people aren't tax experts, they'll buy your product if you promise it'll be easier than doing it the free way. They are both the problem and the solution, legally. Evil scumbag shit.

Here’s the thing though: unless you get lucky and just have a ton of money, you’re going to go into debt at some point in your life. Houses cost a fortune. Land costs an even bigger fortune. College costs a mini fortune. Sometimes you don’t have insurance but have to go to the hospital and you end up owing a ton of money. Going into debt isn’t the end of the world. Most people are in debt, a lot of people just don’t know how to MANAGE their debt.

[@TheRenegade.]

And people are instantly scared of debt when in certain situations it’s “good debt”. This is the debt you see most investors in real estate have because they are using others money to buy more and more properties whilst simultaneously paying of their own debt. You named the things that you can get put into debt for, but they have their own benefits from doing so like getting your own personal residence, getting a degree, etc. And like you said it turns into a snowball effect if you don’t know how to properly manage not your debt, but also your expenses and spendings.

Or Amazon getting millions from a state to open a warehouse in that state.

​@@akmal94ibrahim Very very true! Lobbyists bear a big impact on public policy and sadly, not always a good impact. 2008 is an excellent example of that. That being said, my comment was more directed at the mindset of many Americans who feel entitled to others' belongings and property simply because they themselves have less. Out of pain from not having their needs met, they may grow angry at those whose needs are being met and cover up that pain with an entitled mentality, as if they have a right to the good things others have. I'm grieved when I see the division this has created in our country. And on the flip side, greedy people who are unwilling to use their comparative advantages to help those in need feed into that same division.

He spends every paycheque he gets on frivolous stuff and has literally 0 in savings and owes a ton of credit card debt. No matter how many times I tell him to stop spending and to save, every time I go by his place, I see new unnecessarily expensive stuff laying around.

[@foongern1071]

He'll learn the hard way. Or I hope he will. This is the kind of thing parents should not step in to bail their kids out from.

A lot of people don't seem to know that you're spending money when investing. So be careful! (also don’t buy shit coins)

[@FrenkTheJoy]

Yeah that bugged me, like investing CAN be a smart idea, but not if you DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING. You can really easily lose a ton of money by investing.

[@lmaoxd2957]

@@FrenkTheJoy its literally as simple as it gets, most of these people dont advocate investing in individual stocks but broad market index funds, the dd on this is pretty small and doesnt require that much knowledge as investing and evaluating individual companies. you know, as cringe as this is, "time in the market beats timing the market"

CONGRATS ON THE ENGAGEMENT MY GUY

[@melaniesheldon8013]

Imagine having the privilege of saving money. I hate people preaching "just stop drinking $6 coffees!" I do not drink waste my money like that and if I did, it would not lead to me getting a house. I am on a disbility pension with Cancer. Cody, you may be rich, but you make fun of these kinds of weirdos, so I love you bro!

[@SuperTubeLurker]

The thing these investment content creators don't do, and is really upsetting that it's never even brought up, is explain ways to get out of the never ending financial quicksand pit that is low to middle class. Most people are born into debt and the system is set up to keep them there. Most people aren't deciding to spend $12,000 on a watch, most people are digging through the Walmart shelves looking for the cheapest loaves of bread so they might be able to afford some bologna and American cheese to go with it.

[@NaudVanDalen]

Rich people are like: stop buying Gucci, Prada, Rolexes, Lamborghinis and invest and you'll be rich like poor people are buying that. Although I feel like middle class people are pretty well off I guess. Nothing wrong with a decent living. Not everyone can be rich.

LIFE INSURANCE: you only want life insurance for your career to replace your income to support your family that depends on you. A term policy for your career is what has that utility. Don't treat life insurance as some kind of gamble to payout to your descendents, it's only good for mitigating risk to save your family if you aren't around to support them. Stay at home parents also have an insurable risk, since the earner would have to spend more for daycare and such if other parent died.

[@christopheraplin]

I have a young child and a new mortgage and other manageable debts. I have a 10 year term because that's the timeline I expect where my savings/retirement/investments will not cover my family's needs/debts. Life insurance is a tool for protection. Not required, and I don't expect on dying, but I also am not going to saddle my family with debt that is unmanageable on a single income. I sleep better at night knowing that in the next 10 years my family's future is protected.

MP is not an acronym for moving parts, but A for acronym might be. an acronym forms a word that is pronounced, like PETA or FUBAR. an initialism doesn't form a word, like FBI, CIA, or MP.

The logical finance ones were for sunk cost fallacy and rent-seeking, he tried to explain economic concepts in simple terms. They're not as much financial advice as they are economics lessons.

[@jits8767]

The ones that you didn't get (@logicalfinance) are more about economics than investing. The first one is about rent-seeking, how companies manipulate the government to gain profit, it's everywhere if you're aware of it. The second is about heuristics, people's spending habits are really biased and not so much rational, the guy would pay 6 dollars for cheese if he's already spent 50, because it seems like small increase, idk.

[@AmandaVieiraMamaesouCult]
