THE WEALTHY GARDENER - SUMMARY (BY JOHN SOFORIC)

[@Memoreism]

I'm 31 and just starting to build my wealth. It's hard not to feel bored, but I guess I need to remember to enjoy the ride while I'm here.

[@gpstoddard]

This channel is one of the top 5 channels on KZbin in terms of financial education. Thank you!

[@nsyi]

Could you share the other 4 :)

[@LuisIlva18]

Yeah, would like to check them out too

[@momchilandonov]

I am disappointed that he covers the fake guru Robert Kiyosaki - so undeserved! :(

[@danielkover7157]

A book worth reading, but there's something I see on this and other channels that cover topics like these. The vast majority of these books and channels talk about starting in your 20s and 30s. I have yet see anyone discuss what to do if you're one of those people who missed the window. What about us? I'm going to be 46 later this month, and I still dream of financial independence, but I've definitely missed some important windows. I'm not dead yet, so I'm still fighting. Because I'm getting a later start, I have to be very careful about my goals. That part where you talk (or the book talks about) being careful not to make rash decisions because you've decided you absolutely have to be independent by a certain age definitely applies to me. I'm not entirely sure what to do at my age, though I imagine most of the same rules apply. I've already begun paying myself first, as Clason suggests. I'm trying to pay off my debts as quickly as possible. Being able to find stocks that pay dividends would be helpful, but I still haven't learned how to do that. If you, Swedish Investor, have any advice for older folks working on this, that would be great. If you know of any channels run by older investors who got a late start, would you be willing to refer me? Your channel is the first one I come to for learning and investment advice, but knowing of some channels that work with late bloomers would be wonderful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!

[@TheSwedishInvestor]

Cheers Daniel for your support and for this question, it's a good one. I'd say that pretty much the same rules applies, except that you may have to delay "autumn" a little bit, or be even more dedicated during your "summer". Regarding dividend stocks, they are no better than stocks without dividends. It's about what price you pay for the stock (you want cheap) vs how high the quality of the underlying business is (you want high). A high quality business has a very robust earnings stream, high return on tangible assets, good prospects for growth, and a dedicated & trustworhy management. I'm not sure about any channels run by investors who got a late start, I'm afraid. I wouldn't say that it matters, though. The same rules apply - earn well, save a lot, learn how to invest. You can find most of that information on this channel, just watch these 3 playlists: Earn well: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iITEeoJ5fceoj9k&pp=gAQBiAQB Save: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXXHhZawiduSgbs&pp=gAQBiAQB Invest: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKvMmGqBf6uohLc&pp=gAQBiAQB

There is no different advice that will somehow help a forty-something person get that nice 20 K /month in passive income in the next 3 years, like the author got to at 49. The harsh reality that even TSI won't tell you is that your seasons are 'pushed'. You are starting spring planting season in the middle of summer, and if you save really hard and invest carefully, your investments might start growing good right about 5-10 years after traditional retirement time. The best outcome is that once you are forced to retire by your poor health, you will have enough investment income to add to social security to make up your former after tax income, and that is the best you can hope for. Investing your way to wealth is a young man's game, not because you have to be young, but these things take time, and time is the one thing none of us are getting any more of.

The best time to plant a tree was yesterday. The second best time is today.

[@TylerG7777]

I listened to this audiobook, twice. I loved it. I live it.

[@anabanosquintana7846]

The seasons concept really helped me put things into perspective. I've spent my 20's pursuing higher education. Since leaving my industry job to go chase my master's and PhD I felt like I was falling behind my peers... But I have always kept saving, I am happy with a frugal lifestyle and I started investing a couple years ago. It is reassuring to see that this is my springtime. Summer will come soon.🥰

[@smegge100]

Consistency over time is the secret to success and most people can understand this intellectually. However, consistency requires you to do things when you dont want to do them. It is all about commitment and emotional balance. Not so much about intellect.

[@talosgak1236]

What has that comment to do with the video? Couldn’t write a more generic comment if I tried

[@smegge100]

The book, or video, teaches you (intellectually) how to build wealth over time with consistency. It doesn't teach you how to become consistent.

Man i felt like i missed so much, i'm 24, just starting, but i'm heavily on studying right now, but i see some comments with starts above 30 years and 40 years and so, i guess i'm lucky that i got into it at 24, not so late after all

[@neilcook1652]

Excellent advice, thanks, it’s all there for folks to help themselves, knowledge and action are freedom

[@bendoverson3457]

Best sponsor ever!! I’ve been following your channel a couple of years already (like many others too), I’ll be honored to get advice from you ❤

[@dustingoldsworthy7303]

That's depressing. I'm 38 paid my house off in 3 years in the toughest housing market in the world Australia. Sacrificed having a family. Now live alone. Sometimes trying to get a head costs you everything. Be careful and know what game your in. The world in my expense is designed to suck all the money from you even if you are frugal you still need to buy food, water, taxes, energy. You can't escape it n getting ahead takes more than 1 life time these days. And encourages you to price gouge the next person for the "surplus". Our society is a joke built by the rich. Even the necessities are over priced!

[@alla3732]

I think you should lower your expectations of your day. I used to eat out a lot, had tons of snacks and cola, Monster etc... Wanted to chill all day after work and try to do as little as possible even thinking about getting a cleaning lady with my last ditch of money. I was gaming a lot buying new games and gears, even a vr headset which is now rotting away... Slowly I stopped these habits, they slowly eat away your money. Just the food was like 25% of my income. Now im cooking healthy and eating vegetable as snacks. Now Im not only healthier and happier but I just opened 10% of my entire income to invest. Same with other stuff like rent and subscriptions. Now Im close to 40% of my income that I can invest and I even starting to work 1/2 days a week extra to invest aswell. While still staying at 0% stress, due to a slow pace of advancement. Never stop working on your life, Its like not cleaning your room/apartment/house, not bad at first but after some time it gets nasty and way harder to clean back up again. Thanks for reading wanted to clear my mind. :)

[@axelhaglund2076]

Not quite sure why I am writing this in english since we are both from sweden but perhaps some other viewer could answer for you. I remeber you doing a video on how you (could) sort thrue stock on ticker, on another video I believe you showed an example of how you evaluate a certain company (in "warren buffet: 12 mistakes every investor makes"). Do you think you could do a video actually showing how you perform these analysis? Or perhaps share some templet on excel for example? Perhaps I´m being cheap and should simple test out your patreon in that case feel free to berate me. Hade bäst och tack för bra genomgående innehåll!

The problem is, many people dont want to live till 60 and do whatever they want when they are too old to do anything

[@phoenixmetazoa]

Well like your username suggests, thats the best case for most people. If youre too old to enjoy life, youre way too old to work

[@TalkingMoneyWithNozi]

Then those people should start investing early AND invest a very large percentage of their income to become financially independent younger than age 60. But sadly most people will NEVER do it. They will chase the good life using loans and live pay check to pay check all their lives 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@AimiHiroshi]

I can’t focus on the long run when I should be retiring in 3years, you see I’ve got good companies in my portfolio and a good amount invested, but my profit has been stalling, does it mean this recession/unstable market doesn’t provide any calculated risk opportunities to make profit?

Tried several methods trying to figure out the best approach to building my portfolio. So far, I’m making progress with the help of an astute fiduciary. I’ve been able to compound over $20k in profits from my trades. Back to the video, wonderful job there, always look forward to your next content.

I think it's just a guide. You can retire earlier if you do the correct movements (and have a bit of lucky, of course).

[@KampsKnows]

Working everyday in your life until you die because you lacked financial discipline makes no sense, sorry.

[@pfesi]

I'm french and in France you can retire with a pension from 64. So waiting until sixties makes no sense at least in my country. From my perspective financial freedom should be reach way before sixties when you're sufficiently healthy to really enjoy.@@KampsKnows

[@johndonaldson8989]

just gotta determine what your spend/save balance is bro. there's a difference between saving for the future, and forcing yourself to eat out of a trashcan every night to avoid spending money on groceries. find the balance

[@TalkingMoneyWithNozi]

You can choose to retire earlier by increasing your savings rate. But most people prefer to live pay-check to pay-check and pile up debt until they can't breathe

Yet you choose to spend your savings at a place where 95% people loose money… These youtubers are all selling dreams, and of course « Tutorials »
