How do I Invest? is there a website that I can go to to put money into investments?

[@pathmaram]

Thankyou for summarizing.

[@Bob-yh7ir]

Yep! Just got laid off and this is retirement. In my 50s. Been looking forward to it so no shock or surprise. Ready to go and enjoy the years of health I have left. Just did simple saving and investing over the past 20 years. Got started a little late but was able to catch up. When people ask what I would have done different or if I have any regrets, it's only that I did not start earlier. I agree and tell everyone if get rich quick actually worked, everyone would be doing it and succeed at it. Get rich slow works 100% of the time. Cheers !

[@joepiekl]

That's a good story. What percentage of your income would you say you saved? I've heard people say you should save half of whatever age you started saving at. So if you don't start until you're 40, you'll need to save 20% of your salary, whereas if you start at 20, you only need to save 10%.

[@Bob-yh7ir]

@joepiekl I agree. I started with putting 15%. Then upped it from every raise. Once we got the house paid pff early , we put that payment into the equation and that took us to 33%. Also put 2000 a year into an ESA for kids college and that paid for school. When we stopped putting that away, added that to investments. The past decade plus has been a good market. See if the next decade is similar.

[@edwardrich-g3u]

Once people have at least $1.5M invested, their average return on investment will begin to exceed their household income. In other words, their invested money is working harder than they ever could, which creates lifestyle options that most people never get. Whenever something big goes wrong, a lot of people panic and hold on to money that should be working for them. Having monitored my portfolio performance return huge six figures from the last 2 quarters 2024, I have learned why the market will remain a money den for those who know where to look.

[@loisvasq]

@@edwardrich-g3u That's why a huge goal of mine is to hit the 1.5 marker as soon as possible. My dividends are look solid too but I'm down 10% on growth stocks. please how did you achieve this much?

[@BradleyMaurice226]

I am in my early 60s and retired at 53. Lots of people gave me pushback because they had difficulty grasping the concept of not working if you don’t have to. I looked at my life as stages. I earned everything I have now through a lot of hard work, but I owe it to myself to “stop and smell the roses” in my final stage of life. In my case I left the country after I retired and live in Latin America. It allowed me to get away from all the negative things happening in America while appreciating my new environment. I have yet to meet anyone who regrets retirement.

[@JeffWilliamfick]

Secure a good financial advisor to help guide you on where to put your money. I have one and my returns are a lot higher. 9% on average on my 401k and 12% on my husband and I’s ROTH. IRA is a bit lower at 9%. Also he recommended that I build up some cash before retirement (that was sitting in savings) by putting it into Tbills that are paying out 5%.

[@KimberlyFlores-kr1bz]

Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach you using their service? Seems you've figured it all out.

[@BradleyMaurice226]

Finding financial advisors like Becky Lou Gordon who can assist you on things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded, going over tax benefits, ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.

[@KimberlyFlores-kr1bz]

Becky has the appearance of being a great authority in her profession. I looked her up online and found her website, which I reviewed and went through to learn more about her credentials, academic background, and employment. She has a fiduciary duty to protect my best interests. I sent her an email outlining my objectives and also booked a session with her; thanks for sharing.

I am 28years old now. Was broke 4 years ago. Now own 2 properties with 400k nzd debt. My goal is to retire at the age of 50years. If i can early than would be best.

Multiple streams of income: I'm making 5k a year on a side hustle. Got a fitness instructor certification 25 years ago and have been teaching 2--3 classes a week ever since. The boss *pays* me 5k a year (on average) to exercise and stay fit and healthy. Win-Win-Win

[@bigload6]

I regret moving out of my parents home and going to uni at the age of 18. I should have stayed home and worked to set myself up. Then I should have gone to uni once I had realised what I actually wanted to do with my life. 5 YEARS OF STUDYING. A lot of debt and mistakes later I'm finally in a position where I can save money, working a job my degree has nothing to do with

[@M_SC]

You would never have gone to university then probably

[@Heresthe411]

Don’t blame yourself, School and society is designed to mislead you like that and get you into debt asap.

[@BirdLisa]

I’m pretty sure you were the first KZbinr that suggested to save 10k+ a year. First I thought that was absurd. Now I’ve done it two years in a row. Thank you.

[@blakew5672]

The biggest one for me on this list is the “reminding yourself”. I’m great at pursuing a goal….until I find another goal I also want to pursue, then the previous falls by the wayside. When I make sure to keep financial responsibility in the front of my mind I’m great at it. By making sure to watch a financial KZbin video once or twice a week, or read a book, I manage to keep myself on track. When that lapses I often find myself splurging on meaningless purchases where the money would’ve been better suited in stocks or a HYSA.

[@kjw79]

The book 12-week Year really delivers into that mindset. I recommend reading it 👍

We keep a couple grand on hand for a spur of the moment emergency. The rest of the emergency fund is in a tax efficient fund that I can cash out in two or three days very few emergencies can’t wait two or three days.

Great video, I have a quick question. I am an aspiring trader, I am looking study some traders and earn off their expertise rather than investing myself and lose money emotionally. Whats your take on copy trading? Do people really make money? Just looking for some reassurance

[@shellywhite2145]

Focus on long term investments in property, stocks, and bonds. Avoid copying, daytrading and 'chart astrology'. Diversify across different geographies, industries, and value chain stages - to reduce your risk. You can do this with ETFs, or by selecting different stocks yourself. This is the best way to invest for more than 90% of people

[@hh-uv7kr]

How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?

I watch KZbins to maintain my motivation,,i don't budget,,but im debt free and its easy for me, i keep my emergency fund,, keep a separate account with about 3k for bills or whatever and invest every penny beyond that. I don't worry about investing a certain percentage,,i figure more is better..

[@bellmattwebb]

That was well thought out and informative. Thank you

[@Jane-rh7tc]

it was very interesting that a lot of ppl never use their college degree for their actual work. then later I realized that it was often because ppl didn't think when they chose major, they think as long as they have a degree they are settled for life, what they didn't get(which their parents probably didn't know either) was college is different from high school, it is a very specific tool you choose to use to get a job when you go out there in the world, it's not a generic magical wand that can automatically guarantee a job once you get it. Choosing the wrong tool would not help you get the job after you graduate. sadly most ppl don't realize that doesn't matter how old they are, and they just end up telling everyone arnd them(or online) that college is completely useless. where as the truth is simply because they never bothered to learn how to choose and use the college degree

[@lananeedham]

I saw something like that in the bible. To be rich you need to do what is the biggest service to man. That may not be worded exact but you get the meaning.

You are contradicting yourself. A HELOC is basically a credit card with your house as collateral and a higher principal. HELOCS have interest rates that can go up in a crazy way.. avoid HELOCS at all costs unless you have the money to spare. I have seen people get helocs on their houses and they pay over 8k a month and more than 6500 are interest

Agreed. One should not use a HELOC (which is a loan secured by your home) to pay off unsecured credit card debt. Never ever.

Awesome! I appreciate your viewpoint. I currently earn $600k per year. I have no home or investments, and my job is in New York because I work from home. I need to act quickly or else I'll owe the IRS thousands of dollars come tax season. What should I do?

[@TheComicVault]

Good video! My only addition would be that your investments should be more ethical than index funds and real estate - with capitalism, change starts with the heart but it’s actioned by money. 😊

[@AR-ln7ln]

Nope, no emergencies in my twenties. I was extremely disciplined, which benefited my employer more than myself. Finances were very simple back in a day. We learn nothing by investing in index funds. Real estate was not an asset to me three times. Unlike selling/buying individual stocks, I learned nothing from real estate, but to stay away. I borrow at 5% now and make minimum of 20%. Not saying others can do this also. That compound interest needs to be explained better. Imagine buying a share of Voo for $500. Two years later, that share is $450. Compound interest at work? I was told to zoom out. While I know what it means, do all?

I regret it as well. I did learn some valuable life lessons there, and a lot of knowledge in the career I thought I wanted to be in. But afterwards having a job in the field kind of made me realize it wasn’t really for me. I paid off my college debt as quickly as possible and moved on. I currently work for my father’s business, which I’m set to inherit when he wants to retire. I’ve put a lot of knowledge I’ve gained from college into the business, so I suppose it wasn’t a huge waste of time, but it’s also knowledge I feel like I could have easily Google’d.

[@eddiemalvin]

Why? Is that due to the debt you incurred or do you think it was a complete waste of time?

[@AverageJoeDividends]

So glad that I went. I started at the bottom in IT and I saw that a Computer Science degree would get me into the next level of my career. My work had tuition reimbursement and nearly paid for my entire degree from a community college. Too many people got a degree not knowing what the ROI would be...

[@blakew5672]

Somewhat the same. I was fortunate to have a full paid scholarship, so I came out with minimal debt that I took care of quickly. 1) I didn’t go for the job I initially thought I would, though I’m in roughly the same field. Went for med school, which I got in then decided against, ended up in nursing. I could’ve got my job with a 2 year degree at a community college. 2) I was miserable there. It wasn’t the college experience itself, it was the area I was in. Four years of a place I didn’t enjoy, which affected my mental well being and my performance in school. Why I’m glad I went to college…one reason. It delayed how long it took me to start nursing school. If I hadn’t essentially wasted those four years there I would have started nursing school earlier. I would’ve been in a different class, with different people and I might not have ever met my future wife. I didn’t know it at the time, but those wasted years lead me to the best thing to ever happen to me. There’s a reason for everything, even if you don’t understand it at the time.

[@ed2023bc]

Investing in SP500 is not a solution for everyone. Majority of your returns are being made when everyone is selling. I'm not sure that many people can invest in times like this. Also they are periods that can last literally decades when returns are basically ZERO. And you'll need to buy it then too to get those famous 10% a year. However, I get it. It's very attractive today to common folks when it reaches new highs almost every day. And most of people think that this party will last forever.

Most people use these in times of desperation or financial incompetence. My neighbors “needed” some new windows and house work done. They took a 100 heloc and didn’t account for the mortgage payment increase. They are swimming in debt and getting ready to list their house.
