As a fellow KZbinr, entrepreneur, (and mama of twins!), one piece of life advice that I have learned is that you're never really "ready" for the big thing you want to do or start. So instead of waiting to be perfectly ready, just go for it! Amazing things can happen!

Starting from scratch can feel overwhelming, especially if you’re unsure where to begin. The untold truth is, building wealth is possible, but it takes discipline and smart choices. A lot of people lose their way because they don’t know what to avoid

[@Castillo-x1t]

Exactly. One of the biggest problems is not having a clear plan. I used to put my money into random investments without understanding them, and I ended up losing more than I gained. I didn’t realize how important diversification was until much later.

[@BrianColby-y4g]

Honestly, even with discipline, I don’t know where to start. Should I be focusing on stocks, real estate, or just saving more?

I agree. I've been working with a financial advisor since 2020, and I return up to 15k every month, and I don't even have to lift a finger. Although I also think the reason I make this much is because I started with significant capital.

I agree that when you become rich you'll realize most things don't matter. But the thing is a lot of people want to be rich not because they want a new car or they want to just buy $300 or $400,000 house. It's because they want to be able to just afford food and if their car breaks down they can repair it and if they need to spend $2,000 because something happens to their house or any inconvenience they can take care of without feeling like they're not going to make it to the next paycheck. Most people don't really want to be rich so they can buy whatever they want. They want to be rich so they don't have to worry when they have essentials. They need to take care of that. They don't have money saved up for

That’s a great perspective! Some people are making money just to survive. With rising costs of inflation, it seems like this is becoming true for more and more people. And I think that perspective is so needed for the more privileged people to realize they have ENOUGH!

If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

[@Joegolberg1]

The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.

Yes, I agree. Paying attention to people's behaviors and actions is critical for your survival and livelihood. I learned very expensive lessons from people in general who betray you for money, relationships, and ill intentions. Try and test people before you really trust them. Ultimately, you have to believe in yourself in order to accomplish goals meaningful to yourself. From my experience, making good money is not a problem, 90% of my problems are caused by people. So, be very selective who you socialize with - I guarantee you will have less headaches.

Made my first million very recently and not at 26 but add 3 solid tips. 1. Have multiple streams of income, especially passive income... It's harder to grow income when it's coming from just a source. . 2. Invest wisely... Money sitting in the bank does not grow, money not invested well is a waste. 3. Work harder and smarter, you don't improve without putting in work... *Edited* For people asking me what passive income source, It was mostly stocks and I was investing into the US stock market. Had to use an F.A there since I don't stay there though you could do that without using one

I don’t think it’s necessarily true for you to get a good presence from the beginning to be successful online. To get a good presence takes patience and determination. Nothing happens overnight, but it’s these limiting beliefs in yourself that make you not get that good presence. You need to get rid of these limiting beliefs and continue to strive for success without making excuses for why you’re ’not there yet’. Instead focus on ‘what is this teaching me?’ And ‘how can I use this as a lesson to grow from?’

As a Medicare insurance agent my first set of clients were family members that were on Medicare. From there I was able to grow mainly by word of mouth and being visible.

A wise individual understands that building wealth involves making smart investments and having the right knowledge or guidance, particularly during a market crash. The stock market presents opportunities to maximize profit, but successfully navigating it requires skill and expertise.

[@BateserJoanne]

Having a mentor is crucial. Finding an experienced one can be challenging, but it's a smart move if you're not familiar with the market.

[@VictorBiggerstaff]

I agree. An investment advisor is the best way to go. From my direct experience with a coach, I can vouch for their skills. She helped grow an initially stagnant $150,000 portfolio to over $480,000 in 18 months.

[@VictorBiggerstaff]

The issue is people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt. Ideally, advisors are reps for investing jobs, and at first-hand encounter, my portfolio has yielded over 300% since 2020 just after the pandemic to date.

[@crystalcassandra5597]

Please can you leave the info of your investment advisor here?

Sharon Marissa Wolfe is the coach that guides, you probably might've come across her before I found her through a Newsweek report, she's quite known in her field, look-her up.

I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this. Because you're right. The worst thing that you can feel is hopelessness. And I hope that someone who is on the verge of losing hope finds Dale Valskov and realizes that as long as you're still alive and breathing, there's a chance, there's HOPE that the future is brighter then the present day.

I have been binge watching you tube videos on how to start a you tube channel, how to grow and stuff like that. I am noticing that I am watching A TON of videos and I am using this as an exuse to not start. I am 1 min into this video and Vanessa and very few other creaters, your vibe holds me accountable on my bs. I love this.

[@VanessaLau]

You're welcome! Yep, it's time to take that first step. It's totally normal too if you don't complete it right away. I actually recently learned that your nervous system will freak out when you try something new. It will try to protect you. Which is why it feels exhausting and daunting to complete a new project or endeavor. We might give up half way. The key is to rest, and try again tomorrow instead of picking up! It's not an overnight switch!

[@jesterfeathers]

I watched “how to start a KZbin channel” videos until I was sick of watching them and was just feeling antsy to start already 🤣🤣!

Please create a book! 📚 Your insights in this video are incredibly resonant, especially for those in their 20s. I believe the topics you've covered are essential discussions for anyone navigating this phase of life. A book encompassing all the valuable points you've shared would be truly remarkable. Count me in as someone who would eagerly buy and recommend it!

Thank you!! I hope to one day write a book. Just don't know what about yet specifically. I would love to share my knowledge and stories in paper format one day.

I noticed how smarter I become when I talk to good people. Not just grinding. Being a good person. Learning from others as a way of empathy and connection, not “understanding” them. Learning. Humility. Giving but also knowing how to receive and relax. Being flexible.

So glad this hit my algorithm, I resonated with so much of this. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I've never felt better about pursuing music and deepening this passion while I have the gift of time. I hope your 30s are just as fulfilling as your 20s!

[@lesweetpea]

Thank you so much for making this video. It is SO helpful and I hope I can start implementing some of these things into my life ASAP. So many parts were so relatable, especially a person's values changing from your early 20s to late 20s and finding yourself doing things to please your younger self, but realizing that sometimes those things aren't what you want anymore or aren't things that you enjoy anymore. It can feel soo confusing! Like, why don't I want this anymore? I wanted this 4-5 years ago... but it's so helpful and beautiful to realize that we're growing and changing and that we're only going to be happier actually working towards the things that our new self wants and building a life around that. This video kind of felt like it was coming from a big sister (I don't have a big sister or older siblings that I'm close with). So thank you so much

[@shanikabush5687]

Hi Vanessa , Thank you so much for sharing this. I turn 32 on Monday and I this past year I got the career I wanted and realized this is not what I want. I am still finding myself & appreciate you turning the “lost” statement in becoming a new me. I am embracing this new me and looking forward to enjoying the journey. I started my personal journey around the age of 28 and I tried rushing it and gave in. However, I have now learned so much from that time period, I am now ready to be patient and enjoy the process. Thank you again for your wisdom. So beautiful 🩷

It's understandable to feel concerned about the impact of high prices on your retirement plan, especially with the current economic uncertainties. Here are some insights to help address your worries

[@LoseMike-og9in]

Numerous compelling stocks span various industries for you to consider tracking. While it's not necessary to act on every prediction, enlisting the guidance of a financial advisor is advisable. They can assist you in determining optimal entry and exit points for purchasing and selling shares or ETFs, ensuring well- timed decisions aligned with your investment goals

[@LoveFrank-cp7tv]

I agree, that's the more reason I prefer my day to day investment decisions being guided by an advisor seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time both employing risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis they have, it's near impossible to not out-perform, been using my advisor for over 4years+ and I've netted over 2.8million
