[@trexzar87]

1) Invest in your career Should be compulsory for everyone nowadays if you want any decent paying job. Ideal for ages 15-30. 2) A reliable used car Buy a car AFTER it has lost most of its value due to depreciation. 3) Hire a good CPA This is only necessary once you start step 5, as it opens you up to a large number of legal deductions on rental properties. 4) Invest in a ROTH IRA Obviously a given, actually compulsory in some countries. 5) Invest in Real Estate This is the main money maker. Its always expensive WHEN you buy it, but looking back after 10 years, it will always feel like such a bargain. Don't leave it too late. 6) House hack Sub-letting houses. This is only viable if you get the owners permission in some contracts. Attempt with caution, as you are liable to chase up all damages that may occur, as your "sub-tenants" only have a contract with you, and you are not likely to be providing legal documents to them to sign. Honorable Mentions 7) Tesla Model 3 - Good for tax write-offs if you work for yourself. Great topic for youtube videos. 8) Mr Coffee Coffee Maker - Saves you the "Cafe tax" on coffee.

29 here. Started saving years ago, began purchasing ETFs consistently this year, bought our first house hack this year, and working on an income property. Plus I invest in BTC, ETH, and holding some silver. I feel wealthy af just because the seeds are in the ground. The wave is building. We continue to save. It is never too late to start.

[@jasonfulton8530]

Im so glad I started watching Graham at a young age, he's inspired me so much, at 19, I purchased my first house for, $67,000 (appraised at $99,000) and I'm currently upgrading the kitchen and bathroom to hopefully raise the value a few thousand. Hopefully in the next few years I'll have enough to purchase a duplex or triplex and house hack and use that to reinvest!

OMG!! YOU OWN A PRIUS?! 😍 *swoons* But no seriously, I’m a huge advocate of cheap old cars. No car payments are the best!

I'm attempting to skip the car and live on a bicycle until I'm more settled.

[@vyzetta]

@Angel Ramirez Absolutely, living just on bicycle certainly has its limitations as far as living location and things like groceries are a little bit challenging. But these are sacrifices I'm willing and able to make to save on a car and gas/parking/insurance/maintenance. Not to mention the fantastic health benefits!

@Rajeev Vij I live in Ottawa actually so I feel you haha. I bike until I absolutely can't anymore, then it's the bus. But I see people toughing it out all year round.

I do that in the city where I don’t need a car, and I really don’t go far away since I just work part time, save $1,000 every month, and I day trade at nights.

Think and Grow Rich and Rich Dad Poor Dad are both amazing books! I never really liked 4-Hour Work Week other than the 2nd section. While TGR and RDPD were focused on being better people to be more successful, 4-Hour Work Week is a morally ambiguous way of being successful with no real bettering yourself in the long-run. Favorite book by far is Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Highly recommend picking it up if you haven't already!

The video from your 9 to 5 job is the first video I've watched from you. And when I left a comment it didn't take a long time to be replied. I was like, why did he reply? Than I looked at the other comments and Graham replied to everyone of then. That's when I realized that this was one of the few youtuber that replies to comments. So this is the first channel I've subscribed to watch every video. Great channel, keep it up Graham 👌 Have you ever tried to make a video without coffee? Meet Kevin did, but I don't think he liked it. Maybe I should start drinking coffee so I'll put out more videos 🙈

I’m in a weird category that is rarely discussed, I’m a medically retired veteran. I have been retired since 2016 and due to my injuries from overseas I am very limited on what I can do physically. I have been very down since I retired solely because of my desire to work and progress in the military but I can no longer do that. What I’m trying to say is I’m tired of being stagnant and would like to make my retirement checks start working for me rather than live off of it if possible. Would you have any advise for me? I actually am interested in realty and owning income property as well. Anyway thank you in advance!

[@Badsniperarmy]

I will try to help as best as I can and if it doesn’t help well then sorry :(. By the looks of ur youtube channel ur young so why not a roth IRA? Also he doesn’t discuss this and it’s not a good idea if ur not 100% sure it’ll work but a vending machine, if you can find a good,used vending machine then that is passively making you money. I did the math though and for my case it would take me 4 years just to start making money (minus food, and cost of vending machine) but that was assuming it was only $15 sales a week so if you can find a good place that will get you even more money than that’s a good idea.

[@QuantumPhii]

@@Badsniperarmy vending machines are not a good source of money long term unless you plan on running them yourself for several years. also location is key such at schools or places of work and installing a credit card reader you will earn way more cash allowing cards to be used

Comment on house hacking: The fear that has always stopped me from house hacking is having an addicted tenant. When addiction takes over your life, you lose the ability to think rationally. You lose the ability to be a responsible person who pays all their bills on time including rent. What if I make a bad choice of tenant? What if it turns out they have gone off the rails recently and become a meth addict? or an alcoholic? How am I supposed to detect that before I accept them as a tenant?

A note for everyone: It’s become evident that a lot of you want me to address what’s going on with the markets.

I’ll absolutely make videos on that each week as things progress, but otherwise I believe in the buy and hold philosophy. As bad as things might get in the short term, eventually things will recover.

I've been watching you for awhile but haven't watched this video yet. I'm 21 and this video was a nice review of all the things I plan to do soon once I have a little bit more income security! I'm going to start studying for my CPA Exam (so there's Step 1&3, love killing two birds with one stone) and will hopefully buy real estate and house hack soon (still living with my parents so not throwing away money on rent). I already have a fair amount in investments as well and the only times I ever go out to eat is when the McDonald's app has a good coupon!
