Lately, I've been contemplating retirement, uncertain whether my 401(k) and IRA will ensure a secure future. I've also invested $800K in the stock market, experiencing fluctuations without substantial gains.

[@HildaBennet]

Using a 401(k) or IRA is a valuable strategy for retirement planning, providing potential savings growth and tax advantages. While the stock market is promising, expert guidance is essential for effective portfOlio management

[@DaliaCohen2230]

Opting for an invest-ment advisr is currently the optimal approach for navigating the stock market, particularly for those nearing retirement. I've been consulting with a coach for a while, and my portfOlio has surged by 45% since Q2.

[@bartlyAD]

Market behavior can be complex and unpredictable. Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach to whom you have used their services?

[@ЛианаПащенко-з4б]

I really liked this episode! This family pursues a great goal - to spend time together with their children as much as possible. It took them some time and lots of effort but that was worth it. I personally reckon they’re a great example for all of us! I totally share their values. Work is not the thing people were created to give it all the time and energy. But the question is HOW to work less? It’s obvious that the less you spend the less you must work to make money. The fact is, an obsession with possessions distracts us from the very things that matter most in life-the things that money cannot buy. Children suffer when their parents don’t spend enough time with them. They don’t feel they are loved. That can even have long-term negative effects on their adult life. On the contrary, how much better it is when all family members just have meals together, have fun and communicate. Money cannot buy family happiness and unity. That only comes from spending time with your family and giving them adequate love and attention. I couldn’t agree more with this saying from the Bible: «Better to eat vegetables with people you love than to eat the finest meat where there is hate» - Proverbs 15:17. I find lots of practical advice from this wise timeless book. Where can you find how living by Bible standards can make you happy?

When you find that special person. Have that conversation of goals & a future. If it fits go for it while you young. ❣

@ourrichjourney So glad you all were featured here! Your content is fantastic

[@Suri175]

I really love this couple . They’re doing it right. Huge inspiration

[@MsCruz79]

I love this family so much. What an awesome partnership. My husband and I have followed this couple for years now trying to learn from them. In that time we have become debt-free except for our mortgage and we hope to get to a place as well where we can retire early. Kudos to you guys there aren’t many married couples with children making this happen on a regular salary. You guys rock. Congratulations on your success.

[@ruchellebarrett]

So happy to see “our rich journey” featured! They’re both lucky to have each other to accomplish their goals with❤️. I hope to find a partner one day that embodies similar qualities as Amon.

0:18 "Freedom to spend my time however we saw fit..... we made intentional short term sacrifices so we can have a life time of freedom" 10:18 "We weren't running from something we were running to something" I learned alot from these two. When I watch their videos I look at the background to see what books they read. I try to zoom in if I spot one.

[@ViksterG]

This is pretty wholesome.
