Long time follower of your video. Your videos are always interesting, appreciated, and well done. I think it would be interesting if you did a video that focused on a income based strategy to achieve Financial Independence. In other words focusing on assets that provide income and rather then sell assets to live in further, you build an income stream and you retire when your assets make enough income to cover expenses.

I really like your FI videos, however I noticed you never include TAXES in your living expenses, nor in growth/compounding of investment calculations. I understand these are simplified examples, unfortunately they are also misleading. (Income) Taxes are probably the greatest over-looked expense people will have throughout their life. Additionally, investment returns are much less when including taxes while compounding unless you assume you never re-balance, sell or have any other taxable event. I appreciate that these assumptions are in a tax-sheltered account, but that is not always the best way to invest for lifestyle planning. Just an aside, when you invest I.E. the timing, especially in equity markets, SIGNIFICANTLY effects the end Rate of Return. Compounding is great in theory but in reality, if you're not selling within 20% of tops and buying within 20% of bottoms, your capital is stagnating/treading water. It may grow over time, but it's not really compounding. Just food for thought. Like I said, I really enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.

I think you are missing what I will call Ex-pat FIRE. There are many countries in the world where the cost of living is half of the US cost of living, or less. Say you are comfortable with moving to a country where the COL is 1/2 of where your US high COL career job is. That cuts in half the the amount of time it takes to reach whatever FIRE you are aiming for. You might think ex-pat fire is a just a lean-fire but you might consider that a US lean-fire could be FAT-fire in another country. Capiche?

At 19 you have the most valuable asset; time. Look into ROTH IRA calculators, for about 6k/year you could get 5+million (TAX FREE) in retirement JUST FROM THIS ONE TOOL. Biggest thing I wish I knew lol. Only other tip I would give, hustle hard while you're young to buy and pay off a house. A 30 year mortgage will kill you; if you have the income to pay it off in 5-10 years, do it. Having no debt or housing cost opens so much of your income for investing.

With no debt and no mortgage, the pressure to stay in crummy jobs almost disappears. I intend to continue throwing a few bucks in a ROTH IRA for the long haul and enjoy having very little overhead for the next couple decades. Hopefully lots of travel and freedom to take time off from work in the future.

For everyone else who ever needed to buy their own clothes, car, groceries, mortgage, property taxes, pay for their wedding and child's tuition we are the stupid one's because we couldn't save 50% of our paycheck. Btw take home salary in New York City on $65k/year is roughly $850, so do the math if your mortgage alone is $1600/month.
