[@henrymitchell9717]

Amen agreed! Yes you have to get the money to work for you!

[@VanillaCherryBread]

Yeah (: I just buy stocks & chill. Resulted in ~$3m net worth in my 40s! The best advice I received was from a financial planner I became friendly with at the gym I joined after graduating college. She explained the power of dollar cost averaging and compound interest and the importance of establishing a meaningful savings rate in my 401K while I was 35. By setting this up and steadily increasing it each year, I never felt the pinch of that extra savings. As Gabe has mentioned, “Nobody wins the Super Bowl by accident”. You’ve got to control your money not the other way around. It’s been 7 years, my portfolio’s still growing and I sleep well at night because I knew that there was a path that if I follow would give me financial independence, and IT DID!

Rich Dad Poor Dad was the book that really blew my mind wide open. Poor people have Income & Expenses. They use their Income to pay their Expenses and have nothing left. Middle class people have Income, Expenses, & Liabilities. A mortgage for a house they live in, car loans for person vehicles, student loan debt, credit card debt. Rich people have Assets & Expenses. Their Assets generate their Income without working for it.

I'm not going to say I retired before 50 but, I quit my "real job" and moved to the beach at 46. I agree with all you say, spend less than you make and learn to invest wisely. I used to talk to people about investing and they knew nothing. It would get to the point they were asking me how they should invest. I always asked, what is your goal. My goal was always to have my money work for me instead of me working for money. I never made a lot of money at my job, always did a lot of work to not have to spend money; garden, raise meat, home remodel/repair, made things instead of bought things, fix stuff I had and stuff I got free or cheap. One of these days I'll figure out how much more my money has made me than I have made in paychecks. It's a lot.

[@KevinNordstrom]

He is right, it is simple (but not easy). 1) Buy ONLY what you really need 2) Save 3) INVEST

[@DefenestrateYourself]

“safe”? Also it’s important to have good life experiences. You don’t know how long you’ll live. Living like a ascetic monk your whole life is bad advice

[@I_am_Raziel]

@@DefenestrateYourselfThanks, I have corrected it. Sorry, English is my 3rd language. I agree, it makes sense to find a healthy middle ground. Saving as much as you can, while still allowing yourself to live. Because it is exactly as you say, we don't know how much time we have. Most of us know people who died very early. On the other hand, it is possible that we get 80 or 90 and for THAT it is important to invest, so that when (and if) we reach that age, we don't vegetate in poverty.

[@LittleMage1]

It's pretty easy in theory. The first two steps anyone can do properly, but the third is where lots of people fail. It is very hard to invest safely, most of us don't have appropriate knowledge, aka we have no idea what to invest in.

[@I_am_Raziel]

Just had to comment on your comments regarding education. This country has become obsessed with villifying education. How it can be considered a waste is beyond me. Your comments on the value of going into debt for a job seems to miss the point. If a job is the only reason for the education then maybe leave the space for someone that appreciates knowledge. A basic education is needed just to be an informed citizen, which can be obtained at a community college or on your own in a library(which are also under attack). Glad you found a path financially, but that knowledge is definitely not the end all be all.

House hacking is great! If you have the means to get into it don’t pass up the opportunity. I’m not even mad when a tenant leaves so house hack themselves because there will always be renters. Everyone wins, tenants don’t have to worry about maintenance, property taxes, etc. and we get to cash flow and make passive income.

[@eddiemalvin]

*Some of* the systems that we are taught in America encourages spending. Some... not all. Choose your system carefully. There are other belief systems that discourage spendthrift behaviour. These systems are often espoused by successful people in older generations who are immediately dismissed by younger generations under the false belief that they just had it easier.

[@Shirleypos]

A Financial Planner told me Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. But how can one take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow my monthly income over time?

[@ben-adler]

Assuming the economy doesn't get any better, those who are struggling need to act fast or get left behind. Education is super important and learning about finances isn't that difficult. As Dave Ramsey says, personal finance is 80% behavior.

The slogan always pay yourself first sounds nice as inspirational quote but end of the day you need to pay key expenses anyway or youll get in trouble. Things like energy or mortgage just really need to get paid each month no matter what, but i think way too many people make sure they actually save each month rather than just overspend on useless things

[@giro994]

The simplified version is to spend less than you earn, and invest that extra money. Gabe likes rentals. We've done it with stocks, while we had a couple issues renting out our house after buying a new one. A simplified goal is to aim for saving 10%, per "The richest man in Babylon". But more is better, if you can without skimping so much that you feel bad or miss out on things. We retired very early, but if doing it again I would set aside some for fun money, to actually spend. It was too easy to skip out on a surf weekend trip with the outdoor adventure group, that probably would have been under $200, or an inexpensive class with an outdoor survivalist Cody. There's only a handful of things over a decade or so of time, and skipping those helped financially, but in the very long term we already realize we will be donating a lot because we have more than we will spend or pass on. Spending a little more when we were young wouldn't have materially changed that.

[@donaldlyons17]

Why even bother with renting? People don't rent because they want to IMO they need a place to live which is why everyone is looking for housing......

[@giro994]

@@donaldlyons17 Different places have different rent vs own costs, with the flip of that being your ROI for renting out a place that you own. It's not always clear cut, unless you are banking on underlying investment gains. People complain about the high costs of housing or rentals here and the lack of rentals, but we'd have trouble even getting a 4% return after costs. But a relative in Texas is looking at 10%, and with that return things suddenly look a lot more profitable (or the flip, that you should probably buy instead of rent). And that's not taking into account timeframes. With the huge ~6% commissions on total valuation, it really cuts into things if you don't hold onto real estate for a while.
