I wholeheartedly concur, which is why I appreciate giving an investment coach the power of decision-making. Given their specialized expertise and education, as well as the fact that each and every one of their skills is centered on harnessing risk for its asymmetrical potential and controlling it as a buffer against certain unfavorable developments, it is practically impossible for them to underperform. I have made over 1.5 million dollars working with an investment coach for more than two years

It's certainly a cultural norm.

Finding oneself in this situation, with supportive family while also building wealth, is truly remarkable. Awesome.

[@marvinbrown1717]

I'm happy to see the perspective of an adult living at home (by choice); as mentioned, there is a cultural aspect to this. As someone with a different cultural background, one that emphasizes hyper independence, it is great to see a different perspective. Secondly, I think it's great that he is able to rent one of his homes to his sister, it seems like it is a mutually beneficial relationship. That being said, am I the only one that is getting tired of this dystopia of homes as a commodity/part of the portfolio? I think too many of us are told to "invest" in real estate, but given the housing crisis, NIMBY, and inflated housing prices, its just so hard to be ethically invested in real estate given our current climate. I'm not saying to not do it, and I'm not even faulting folks that choose to, the incentives are there. There is just something that feels wildly inappropriate about our current system.

One thing that Asian Americans in general do so well is leverage group economics by staying home longer (helps to have an in-tact, loving family unit also.). So much needless suffering happens when people get tossed out into the world with no support or real leverage (most lean on credit card debt and end up screwing themselves long term).

Drawbacks include less freedom for fun activities like clubbing and the constant scrutiny of others. You might feel like you missed out on the carefree nature of your 20s and casual relationships. However, there are advantages too. You mature faster than your peers, enjoying your 30s more fully. Personally, I've had the opportunity to travel to Japan, Mallorca, Thailand, and Dubai this year. Additionally, owning multiple properties and being successful as a man has made it easier for me to date and find a life partner.

That 19k left from the 22k (from 2016!) is a waste of interest, unless the rate is so low it's somehow worth it? He could knock that out quickly and be done with it and still be able to invest in more real estate. He's far ahead of most (including me), so his decisions are great lessons in managing wealth, but seems odd to hang on to that particular debt. (And I did think about the college loan forgiveness, but that wasn't an idea back when he graduated, and I thought there were income caps, which he far exceeds--being able to still make $220k/yr in TX is massive since the CoL is lower than CA.) BTW, mentioning the Costco fee is a bit digging, isn't it? It's $60/yr, relatively cheap (it's been that for decades!) compared to the savings from buying at Costco.

Only in the western culture is it looked down on to live with your parents. Usually most will live on their own after 18. That's reasonable if you are trying to escape a bad family situation but most people end up spending thousands of dollars on rent when they can live at home and save up. I'm 23, earn over $100k and year and already own a triplex simply because I was smart with my money. I didn't go on vacations after I finished school like most people do and I saved every dollar from my paychecks by living at home. With how expensive it is to live now, more peole need to do this.

[@ericl6386]

I think living with parents can be a good option. He is using the savings and help from his parents to built up the networth and built wealth for his family. The stigma that living with your parents is bad comes probably from kids that can not support themselves and mooch of their parents way into adulthood. This is not the case for this man and they have a good relationship so good for them👍

Im Bangladeshi-American, i did the same. After 6 years of living with my parents after college from age 23 to 29, i was able to pay the downpayment for my 2-family home during the worst of the pandemic at 2.5% interest rate. Lowest my attorney saw at the time. Alhamdulilah. And its kind of like house hacking if your parents help pitch in for the mortgage, and on top of that, i dont ever need to hire daycare when my wife and i work.

[@lynwill9946]

We as Americans need to stop pushing our views and other cultures. United States is one of the few countries that have land a casual culture to push their adult children out of the house. I believe it’s up to the parents to make the determination if they want their adult child to remain with them. It’s a benefit because it allows the adult child to save money. It’s a benefit because the adult child can Assist his or her parents at any time. As long as the relationship is healthy, and the parents are happy with the adult child, it is a delight for everyone.

Pay your student loans. You make enough money not to expect the government to forgive them.

[@elkinhuertas2137]

It's not expecting the government to forgive them. The man understands money and throwing 19k into a student loan pit like that makes no sense when he is currently trying to arbitrage and buy another property. The only reason to pay off that loan early is for emotional purposes.

[@gezgin_bison]

Finally, someone who understands it! Seems like student loan debt is emotionally too much for Americans, many comments online reflect that they prioritize paying it off early in their financial planning

[@KK-pm7ud]

@@elkinhuertas2137 The guy is currently breaking even on all of this properties except the one he's renting to his sister. The interest rate on his loans is not zero and the value of his real estate is at a near term peak while having investment risk for holding those real estate properties. On top of that he has to manage properties across multiple states and pay their accountant to figure out all of the differences in taxes across states. In this situation it's better to simplify your debt situation than continuing to double down on real estate purchases.

[@Observer100-cn7gv]

@elkinjuertas2137, he owes that money. He borrowed it and should pay it back. It was not his. It was a loan. He should not be dragging his feet to pay back. I don't understand the mentality of you people. The government needs to clamp down on people who owe student loans and behave the way he does. Stop trying to rob taxpayers you thieves.

I don't even make half of what this gentleman makes, but back in 2020 I was blessed to be able to buy some acreage, build a home for myself and then build a little detached ADU/MIL for my aging parents, after years and y-e-a-r-s of saving. 😅 It was one of my proudest life accomplishments to be able to surprise them with it. And it's so incredibly nice to have them on the property with me now. I think multigenerational living is not only smart, but it's the future!

Guys non of this is the answers, the reason he pays the minimum and hasn't paid it off is because it's the first and oldest credit line on his credit which helps his credit file, if he pays it off it will drop his credit score and length of credit history in return affecting his interest rate on future financed properties

[@ciprianmaior2086]

Living with parents is tough. There is a reason why people don't do it. He is taking on a lot of emotional debt as well. For example, if his sister can't pay, what will he do? Kick her out? Having kids will also be complicated. He says, "Wherever I go, my parents want to come with me..." That's a red flag. Maybe not now, but when he has wife and kids, it will be rough.
