These 3 Things Will Keep You Broke

Retired early with no savings but (by God's mercy only) no debt, and we consider ourselves blessed. We chose to sell our five-bedroom, three-bath home, and buy a mobile home sitting on 23 acres centered in the middle of pine trees. We're on vacation every day so there's no desire or need to vacation elsewhere. Our trust in God has never failed us and you can trust him too. A little is much when God is your Savior.

Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!

Starting early is simply the best way of getting ahead to build wealth , investing remains a priority . I learnt from my last year's experience , I am able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time .

The fact that there is already an excessive amount of demand awaiting its absorption, despite how everyone is frightened and calling the crash, is another reason why it is less likely to occur that way. 2008 saw no one, at least not the broad public, making this forecast, as I'll explain below. The ownership rate was noted to have peaked in 2004 in the other comment. Having previously peaked in the second quarter of 2020, we are currently at the median level. Between 2008 and 2012, it dropped by 3%, and by the second quarter of 2020, it had dropped from 68 to 65.

Investing in both real estate and stocks can be prudent choices, particularly when backed by a robust trading strategy that can navigate you through prosperous periods.You're not doing anything wrong; the problem is that you don't have the knowledge needed to succeed in a challenging market. Only highly qualified professionals who had to experience the 2008 financial crisis could hope to earn a high salary in these challenging conditions.

[@hunter-bourke21]

I wholeheartedly concur, which is why I appreciate giving an investment coach the power of decision-making. Given their specialized expertise and education, as well as the fact that each and every one of their skills is centered on harnessing risk for its asymmetrical potential and controlling it as a buffer against certain unfavorable developments, it is practically impossible for them to underperform. I have made over $745k working with an investment coach for more than two years.

I was married to someone who didn’t believe in SAVING money and spent way much more than she earned. I was always working hard to provide for my family, but she never appreciated it. I have one goal right now in paying off my mortgage. I hope I am doing the right thing. My interest rate is 2.99%, but I have decided as of next month I will start paying extra to principal to pay it off, so I can retire without a mortgage payment.

It's tough for sure. Maybe you can motivate him gradually over time if he is a brick wall. Easier if you share a bank account. Make a savings labeled as Emergency so he can see. Downsize your car so you can move money into it. Make him aware why you are doing it and that it's for you both and your family. Ask him to match your monthly input too. Make a Vacation savings and ask him to match your input there too. Be specific and ask him to move $50 to X account on Y day. Some guys can't break down anything vague into an actionable item. Vacation savings could make him feel good if he likes vacations. Sometimes people mirror their partner's goals and hobbies without realizing it. Best of luck.

[@ann-mariemeurs952]

That's right! Amen and amen! People need to take control of their money. If you want to be a high earner that's your right. Normally people control how much they spend and how much they make. Usually their finances and financial information is not a public affair. As a Christian, I have had businesses and people blatantly play with my money, impose limits on it without legitimate reason, and I feel it is all tied to something satanic or evil.

If it was something like real estate or some high paying tech field he could have been making 200-350k a year, and living with relatives, sounded like he was living on very little *Edit* plus, I feel like when he said 'almost on the streets' it meant he lost the house and went thru a genuinely hard time, but I don't think his account was ever empty

[@SenorDadBod]

I have a feeling the old guy buying the farm forgot to mention he was making 55k/year 30 years ago which is a little different lol

this show changed my whole perspective and got me on the good foot

[@benitabussell5053]

I wonder if people that experienced the 2008 crash had it easier because. my portfolio has lost over $27000 and I don't see my retirement turning out well when I can't even grow my stagnant reserve

[@gregorywhem]

You have an opportunity to rebalance thanks to volatility. In order to help you diversify your portfolio, you must hire a financial counselor or broker.

[@HarrisRyan-oy8eo]

I'll suggest you create a diversification strategy because building a good financial-portfolio has been more complex since covid. I have accrued over $120K under the guidance of my coach

[@EverlyndPerez]

who is this coach that guides you, mind I look them up

[@HarrisRyan-oy8eo]

My advisor is *Alicia Estela Cabouli* she’s highly qualified and experienced in the financial market. She has extensive knowledge of portfolio diversity and is considered an expert in the field.

[@Theresaa12]

She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.

I love this Ramsey show I just started watching it and I’m gonna keep watching it to learn more and more. Thank you so much.

[@UnknownUser-tq6ru]

Oh good! I was waiting for a new show

Definitely buy some land to enjoy as a family retreat. The memories will be priceless. Another idea instead of just buying land for grandchildren, set up a trust for them. Invest a set amount, have it worked so they get scholarships to pay for further education in whatever field they want to work in, When the youngest grandchild is, say, 25 years old, divide what is left in the fund evenly amongst all the grandchildren. My grandmother actually did this for her great grandchildren. The 18 great grandchildren each received $25,000 , after a number of them withdrew from the fund - that’s $450,000 total. And the starting amount was around $20,000, invested wisely. 1990 to 202. If you did this for your great grandchildren, then you could also do a gift to each grandchild of a set amount to help them buy a house, etc.

[@lvega5606]

The caller never said he was making a ton of money on having the car debt, he said it made sense, which it does. $1,000 per year is nothing to sneeze at. I make a high income and would love an extra 1k per yr.

I thank God for letting me hear Ramsey show couple of weeks ago. We recently buy 395k home for residence. What shifts my thinking is this show. Once I hear baby steps, I discussed with my wife, calculate the cost and benefit and immediately start applying. We had car and funiture loan of about 12k. We just paid off the 12k debt and divert the monthly payment of $600/month to extra mortgage payment monthly so that we can pay it early and save interest rate. if we keep doing this, we can pay off our mortgage atleast 13 years early. Fascinating and now I'm thinking we'll pay it off even sooner than 10 years. We have 9k on saving as an emergency and we are working on it to save more. Thank you Dave and I'll see you 8 years later when I'm free of my mortgage. Love u'l

[@ashleighoverturf3599]

I told my father-in-law about us needing a bigger vehicle now that we have 6 kids. My current vehicle is paid for plus we have some to cover extra cost after trade-in. My father in law says we can't find a good car without getting a loan. I said I will! 😊

[@ShawnLawson414]

My books will be here today. The three pack with the main book, workbook and baby steps book. I haven’t started anything. My finances are a mess. I just decided I can’t do this anymore. Now to figure out how and what to budget so I can put money to debt then savings. I’m a researcher. I’m not getting anything accomplished but I want to read your books. In the meantime I’m just trying to focus on spending less and finding knowledge. Next month I want to start the budget, track every expense etc and start paying more on debt. At this point still trying to figure out what my budget is so I know what I have. I have the app from your website and I’m filling it in. My expenses are hard reality checks. In a good way. Hope I’m on a good start. Then I will sit my husband down and discuss it with him. He needs to see total plan and results. Not just me having an idea He knows I want too.

I think I’m the exception to the cash-pain rule. I’ve operated using my debit card/online banking pretty much my whole financial (over a decade) so I “feel” it more when I see the balance go down with each transaction. Cash almost doesn’t feel real to me since I so infrequently use it! 😅

I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying its ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $200k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point.

[@MattDouglas-hj9wh]

Yes, a good number of folks are raking in huge 6 figure gains in this downtrend, but such strategies are mostly successfully executed by folks with in depth market knowledge

I agree, having a brokerage advisor for inveesting is genius! Amidst the financial crisis in 2008, I was really having inveesting nightmare prior touching base with a advisor. In a nutshell, i've accrued over $850k with the help of my advisor from an initial $120k investment.

There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But i work with Carol Pasol Lewis and I have been working together for nearly four years, and she is excellent. You could proceed with her if she satisfies your discretion. I endorse her.

How do you budget for groceries? It's variable each month.

[@tracybishop7792]

I recently started budgeting for groceries. I set a monthly amount that I want to spend (or stay under), divide that by 4, and that’s how much I try to stay under when I buy groceries, which I do once a week. So, my monthly is $100, I try to spend no more than $25 each week. Eating at a restaurant is a separate line item in my budget.
