I trust our Gurus with our life (they fought died and won prevailed aginst Chrstanity and Islamic invasions and will do so again) the ultimate no bullshit hard advice to navigating life and apprently soft greedy Influencers are called Gurus? really ? are you people cultural maligining Dharmic culture or is it the west and there sphear of influence do deminsh the power of these words like guru or pundit because they embrassed preachers and imams who debated them with there knowledge so now they label everything negative guru and pundit to create negative PR.

Not everyone can be on the fast lane, majority will be on the slow lane. I think it is best to be on both lanes as you can be. Invest into the 401, ETFs, etc. but also save a portion of that to be invested in a passive income as well. Do not spend all you have earned and create a rule to spend only a fraction. I agree with Ruri.

We’ve lost so many friends and family because they all tell us we are crazy and too strict and we were tired of hearing them tell us how we would never achieve what we want.

[@ThePurple1234567891]

Mindset and discipline are key parts. So many people will try to tell you how to live your own story. When really their is a goal that's being worked towards. And the discipline helps keep you on track from conforming on what others tell u to do. (This is my basic perspective to this topic)

I never thought I would have such a good video with this title.

I thought they didn't even remember that we are still human and want joy in our lives, but this video I thought was so beautiful and had a different flavor in this situation. Through your videos I now realized how much I can change and I started in the summer of 2023, now I am in 2024 and impressed by my changes in such a time. Thank you for your videos and honest opinions 👍

While true earn as much as you can save as much as you can and invest is a slow method, but that is only way for most people. Most people are not so gifted to come up with great idea or motivated enough to push yourself or courageous enough to risk and bet your life on business. I became net worth of 35 million with 25 multifamily properties and ETFs at age 50 using what you called slowlane. I am confidently on my way to 100 million in next 10 years. I still live frugal life in 3 bedroom house and drive Honda but I am always happy. I don't watch finance influencers and don't agree with them on lots of stuff too but my way is the only way and anything else is "wrong", "bad", "scam" make you sound like those finance influencers.

This is a dangerous way of thinking. I've tried to start businesses but failed and have climbed the corporate ladder. I have more freedom/time in my current role than I ever did as a small business owner. The key is don't lifestyle creep as you're climbing the ladder. I still live like I'm on my original salary even though I make 5 times that amount. My peers live the "fancy" lives seen on social media but they're also spending far more and complaining to me about payments that have to be made on houses and cars.

[@albraun-sq6rg]

Couldn't agree with you more. The guy is making money selling his books, but most Americans will never do anything like that. There is nothing wrong with having a good job in a field that you enjoy, with a good salary. If you invest wisely in safer funds, over time, you will be fine. Don't play the markets, just save. I'm retired military and have had a pension for over 20 years now. We do charity work whenever we can and have traveled all over the world. I don't need a Ferrari. My Toyota Tundra has served me well. Am I mediocre as this author says? I don't think so.

@@The.Harsh.Truths Yeah usually I like her messaging but this one isn't it for me. Also the idea that if you had "even 1 point" you have a bad mindset when there are literally people who are born into poverty with no opportunities, and plenty of people who are born into rich circumstances and just inherit all of their wealth. And I am speaking from the point of view of someone who is straight in the middle of the road of these two.

[@xiaoka]

@@BusyCasual yes exactly. I don't live pay check to pay check and I'm also smart enough to realize that money doesn't buy happiness. I've done the start up grind before but at this point in my life w/ kids and a healthy savings, its not worth the risk to walk away from a good paying job. Oh and I know lots of miserable humans who also happen to be rich.
