What Is The Minority Mindset?
The Minority Mindset has nothing to do with the way you look or what kind of family you're from. It's a mindset.
Give the majority $200 and they will come back with a pair of shoes. Give the minority $200 they will come back with $2,000.
Think from the mindset of a consumer and be the provider, that's the Minority Mindset. Don't be the majority. #MIH #GetMoneySmart

Thanks Jaspreet!! I really appreciate your videos. Hard to find someone honest and willing to share their knowledge. I’ve been trying to get my finances straight so I can start fresh and on the right path. I will definitely teach my kids as soon as they are old enough to follow your recommendations as well. Saving is definitely for losers as you point out in you videos. Public schools are worthless to be successful as they teach you nothing about finances. It’s very simple when you break it down. Thanks again 👍

Everyone has to start somewhere. Some people start poorer than others. Now I am not saying that poor people can not become entrepreneurs or rich for that matter I am saying that if you can’t find a job or even if you do have a job but the living expenses are so high or if you have kids and you can’t afford to invest money in a small business it can make it extremely difficult. Not impossible but more difficult depending on a number of circumstances. But I guess you could use what you got for example if your wanting to start a KZbin channel you could use your smart phone camera until you get more money later.

And just like ppl such as dave Ramsey he is talking lifestyle changes as well which can lead to having more cash to invest with. I came from a very poor broken home and now i own a property which is zoned for multi housing and will be converting my detached 700sqft garage with paved alleyway parking into a rental to help me payoff and invest in other properties. Along with that i just bought a truck and will now be saving to get a food trailer to make extra money on the side to invest in more properties and businesses.

@@brentpal Been watching for a while. But what I am saying is that he says that you should not buy things that you cannot afford 5x. One of those things he suggests investing in is real estate. Well if a house is 100,000 (my estimates are going to be cheaper because where I live housing is super cheap compared to the national average but wages are also much lower). That would mean I would need 500,000 dollars to afford it right? Or would that be an exception to the rule? Depending on how much money a person can save will determine how fast they reach that amount of money. But that does not account for inflation. How long will it take you to accomplish your goals of running a food truck and property?

The 50/30/20 plan is a good transition away from the infamous lazy budget plan of 50 percent needs 50 percent wants and 0 percent savings. Some people have to struggle hard to cut down their spending on wants from 50 percent to 30 percent.

Nope, investments have never been in wants. Investments are considered as part of the 20%. On the other hand, this rule can be modified or customized. I’ve seen where this was made by gender. Therefore, you could do that, but the part where the 20% is not for investing is wrong.

There's another variation of this rule: - You can spend up to 50% of your income in needs. - You can spend up to 30% of your income on wants. - You must spend as less money as you can in needs or wants, and you must save or invest whatever you don't spend. - You must save or invest at least 20% of your income as soon as you get it. At the end of every month or week, you must save or invest anything left. - You must save everything you can until you have 6 months of your needs and wants saved. Then, you must invest everything else.

Did I really just hear you say that this rule doesn’t allow investing? It goes more like this from what I read and learned from Elizabeth Warren’s concept: the 20% should be used to pay down debt first and then after that used to invest in your retirement. The choice is up to the individual as far as I can tell.

To me the system reads 50% on bills and needs, 30% consumable/entertainment spending, 20% saving and investing. Aka. Save until you have 3-6 months at least saved up in liquid capital and then invest the rest of your money into various other assets.. keep compounding until you reach a place where you can afford to live your dream lifestyle on only the interest generated by your assets... after that point donate the money you would have saved.

Great presentation and advice as usual. I am too late to this party as I will be retiring in near future. Being a person of minority I have done reasonably well. I followed the rule of 40/60 . 40 % of after tax income spent on living expenses,60% saving only. Interest rates were better then. If I knew then what I know now I would have done better than what I have achieved. Though I have hit that magic number suggested for comfortable retirement in my employer offered retirement plan as I always contributed the max amount allowed and invested in stock market, initially 50/50 and 100% stocks for past 10 years or so.Debt and mortgage free. Keep inspiring us. Thank you.

Which leaves me about 1400-1500 to start investing or paying off my loan. With all honesty I want to quit my job and was planning to save. I have started selling on eBay and averaging about 300 net a month part time. I know this is not enough since my monthly cost of living is 2600 a month. I feel like my mind is everywhere trying to figure out what I want to do or where to invest.

This is the plan I follow now because of you Jaspreet- used to only have about $150 in assets back(Oct 2018) then now I’m at $8.5k, more than I’ve ever seen in my entire life. Thanks Minority Mindset!!

Another thing is that the 50/30/20 rule might have been designed at a time when putting $1 into a bank account for a year would give $1.05 at the end. In the 1990's CD's had that kind of return. When I was a child, savings accounts came close to that. In the era of zero to negative interest (as is the case now in some countries), keeping too much cash or money in the bank is not wise.

Send a hefty portion of your 6mo fund to a high yield account (some online banking place). Leave a portion of that in your checking acct in case of larger right now emergencies. For your big purchase savings, you can either go to a financial company for a managed account (i'm sure a lot of ppl are against this, but if you wanna do 0 work this is easiest). Otherwise invest in what ppl consider ultra safe funds (SPY, DVY, etc). This way your money is generally safe, liquidatable when necessary, and gets some growth.

I was using 50/30/20 but now my pay has increased its more 33/33/33. My needs are monthly expenses, food and petrol etc. My wants is short term savings for holidays, car maintenance etc. My savings are actually invested for retirement. It's how you interpret it.

With all due respect but your rule should always include a savings portion because 6 months expenses is valid for the first year but because of inflation this time frame will keep going down over time. I would have thought you continue to save but did so at a lower rate ( 3% to offset information) but hey thats just a theory a money theory aaaaaand cut

Question where would your put genrosity and donations in your budgeting? Do you budget seperately for that or does that simply fall into the 50% spending? Would you think it is better to create a 40/30/20/10 rule if your goal is to pay it forward in life with atleast 10% of your income? I ask because you set the spending percentage as a maximum but you set the investing and saving percentages as a minimum. My method sets the 10% generosity as a minimum so that's why I am wondering if for those people who say giving back is important to them in life that creating a 40/30/20/10 budget is better.

I'm sure that you may have addressed this before, but what are your views on Employee Stock Purchase Plans? I contribute 7% to mine, and on average it gives a 25% return after the 15% discount and the look back option. My 401K has given less than impressive returns, so I'm considering pulling out of the 401K and maxing my ESPP out at 20%, would that be foolish?
@pondboy3682
@pondboy3682 4 жыл бұрын
It's a mix of good and bad ideas, and before you do anything rash, you need to read a financial book each month (free at a library), and read the fee structure of your 401K. Only investing in one company is foolish. A 25% growth rate is amazing, but probably not a sustainable average for decades, and if the company tanks one day, your savings do, too! Pulling out of your company's 401K may be a great idea! Although companies are legally required to try to find the best plans out there, there's no real guidance on how to figure this out, and many companies end up offering accounts that brokers advertised the best. You can likely do better.
