[@nikushim6665]

Investments only work if you have large sums of money sitting around doing nothing. The poor don't have such luxuries as their incoming is pretty much gone paying the cost of living. It takes few million just sitting around to create a diversified portfolio to produce livable returns. Sure you can yeet few grand onto a high risk and potentially make out big but that's effectively no different than gambling at your local casino.

Summary: 1. The rich never stop learning. 2. They sell value, not time. 3. They pay themselves first. 4. They have a growth mindset, not a fixed mindset. 5. They harness the power of delaying gratification. 6. They build multiple streams of income. 7. They surround themselves with other rich individuals.

[@bonchidude]

They also inherit their wealth. That is # 1, all others are a VERY distant second, third, 4th and so on.

[@bonchidude]

@Tóth Gábor Yes, make sure you choose the right parents. That is a BIG LEG UP and I mean BIG leg up above all else. You are 1000000000000% right.

[@filmmakingmasters]

@@bonchidude Roughly 20% of the rich inherit wealth and 80% of millionaires are first generation who built their wealth on their own. Roughly 80% of them earned it as first generation individuals without family inheritance. Which means they are the first to be rich in their family. Inheriting wealth as the #1 excuse for why most rich people are rich is invalid. There are of course a ton of variables in life beyond inheritance such as an individuals work ethic, where you are born and being raised, and as mentioned before the connections you get, or come across, throughout your life can make a really big differences, and so much more.

[@DerGuteHut]

8. They pay politicians so the laws are in their favor.

[@DerGuteHut]

@@filmmakingmasters No it isn't...the number one reason why people are rich is indeed that they come from a rich family. Thats where the real money is. If you count individuals...you will of course get to that conclusion...because family money or money that is bound in companies is not owned by a single person...and so those people who inherited wealth don't appear on those lists. So...I don't know if that might not be representative...but I looked up the 10 richest people in my country...and 7 of them where simply born into rich families (which doesn't mean they are not also good in business).

00:43 oh, this starts well. FFS, Warren Buffet's father was a Congressman with a thriving business. Through investments that his dad allowed him to do in the family business since he was young, Buffet finished university with no debt and a sizeable amount of money, which allowed him to immediately start business partnerships. And while it's true he worked for it, his father's name opened tons of doors for him (not to mention the good money he had to back him up). He was never ever in his life in danger of "failing" like normal people are. For him, "failure" would just have meant going home and taking over his dad's business or enter politics - a FAR cry of what can happen to the average person if they don't succeed.

Bottom line is that Warren learned from observing what his father's clients did with their money. Warren could have sat at home and watched TV, but instead, he made a point of going to work and learning from those who utilized good financial principles. He became substantially richer than his father ever was.

There are people that work very hard, but get passed over because they don't stand out, and there are people that work far less but get promoted with raises because they figured out with areas have the most prominence and ensure their efforts are noticed by the right people. Next, it's been proven that having people save $5 a day not ordering coffee is not going to change their earnings trajectory.

One thing that people always leave out is that yes, it is the mindset that separates the broke from the poor, but it's the MAJOR ACTION that is needed in order to go from one class to another...you dont get rich from working hard, or delaying gratification today ( although you earned every right to it by hard work) denying yourself a Starbuck drink each day until retirement ( which you may never see)...Moving up means taking drastic actions to get there, such as moving away from family and friends to go where the opportunities are, buying Goodwill clothes for the next 10 years just to save enough money to get that house or that business started or invest in the market. I had to give up wearing Nikes for 20 yrs just so I could buy a whole lot of NKE shares. Also had to deny myself lots of things for years just to earn my MBA and still struggling to move up a class. It's tough to deny yourself things that you work so hard for to go to a level that you may never get to. It's a tough set of decisions but are neccessary but how many of us are willing to do it...not many, which is the reason many of us are on the bottom of the pyramid holding up the rich.

Okay, it is always recommended to spend money on vacation ,to travel around the world as it fundamental for one's growth. So it like you investing on life experience.

[@wpelfeta]

I think it was a bad example. Going on vacations has nothing to do with being wealthy. The better example would have been one guy going into debt to buy his stuff NOW, while the other guy takes on odd jobs to afford it later. Debt is a huge tax on your finances. Never go into debt unless you're buying an asset that will generate more value than what you lose from the interest payments.

This video was absolutely the most tone deaf video I’ve seen on the differences between rich and poor money management. It paints poor people as lazy, lacking priorities, and having little to no control over their impulses. This completely ignores that the poor most often come from poor families and don’t get the help that middle class and above families have to offer. And that’s before we even go into the challenges POC, disabled folks and women face. I couldn’t finish this it wreaks of privilege.

[@septembergray3618]

I came from a poor family and I'm a woman and I'm not poor. Poor people aren't lazy, but they are ignorant of how money works. With all the information out there on the internet now they can learn if they want to, but some probably don't even know that because they're searching for stuff they don't need instead of financial channels. A lot of the poverty problem would be solved if anyone who got earn income credit on their tax refund or government assistance had to take a financial/investing seminar.

[@WiccanRai]

I'm gonna have to be honest with you, Bob, You see, Bob, while your video does make some excellent points between John and Tom who had similar backgrounds and similar opportunities, with John having a good attitude to work and money, while Tom had a poor one, which highlights how one managed to get rich, while the other remained 'poor'. Thing is Bob, you forgot poor Bert. Bert grew up in a working class family and lived in a working class neighbourhood and went to school that didn't have the facilities to accommodate Bert's ambitions. Bert's family couldn't afford to send Bert to a different school. Therefore Bert didn't have the same opportunities that both John and Tom had. Regardless, Bert worked hard at school and did well and went on to college, but he worked through college to help his family. Bert left school with reasonable grades, but was unable to get the kind of jobs he would have preferred. Instead he took a low paid job and hoped to gain experience that would eventually lead him to promotion and a better pay. The minimum wages he earned were barely enough to pay the bills in his studio flat, but Bert, unable to afford a latte on his way to work, put some money by each week for night classes. Unfortunately, Tom's company closed down , which meant the smaller retail outlets it owned also closed and Bert found himself out of a job. He could no longer afford night classes and despite all his best efforts, could not find a new job. Bert's future is bleak, Bob. He might, if he's lucky, get another low wage job and after several years hard labour, may one day pay off his credit card debt he's accumulated paying for dance classes for his daughter and to keep his battered car on the road. Got the picture yet, Bob? It's been a year since you posted the video Bob, but maybe Bert will see it and think his whole life has been worthless as you didn't include him in your examples.

[@elmerelmtree7006]

Not entirely true. If you can show that you brought in a lot of cash once, and if you want that to happen again, you'll want a % of it, then you can get those bonuses. Course, the flip side of that is that you can use an new in innovations for yourself instead of the company too. The company can make more money than you can implementing it by yourself, but by yourself you keep 100% of the smaller profit.

The actual difference between wealthy and poor is that you don't become a billionaire by being kind, generous, or empathetic. Poor people "pay themselves last" because they live paycheck to paycheck, meaning their rich bosses don't pay them enough money to cover their basic living expenses AND put a decent amount toward savings. I'm sure so many, myself included, would LOVE to put $500 away each month in savings and investments. But when your monthly income is $3,000/month or lower, that gets a little tricky, especially if you provide for a family. After you take out rent/mortgage, food, utilities, and all of the things you can't not pay every month, you're left with crumbs, crumbs that you still put away for a rainy day, sometimes over years, but then it gets wiped out with one car repair, one trip to the hospital, one or two months after being laid off. Sure, you can just work hard and your boss MIGHT reward you, but the reward is always more like "well thanks, better than nothing I guess". I've gotten 5 raises over 2.5 years of work at my current job, through a hellish pandemic, and I still make well under the minimum livable wage. Also, take note of the ages of those 69 (nice) self-made billionaires. Christ it's like a damn retirement community made entirely out of gold, interns' tears, and extinct/endangered animal skins. It was way easier to make a fortune before we reached this stage of hyper-capitalism. When those fuckers were the low rung of the corporate totem pole, ass kissing and working hard and playing in the stock market actually yielded results (obviously), not to mention a college education was way cheaper and wages were way fairer. But now those very people control the markets and do everything they can to prevent any assistance to their workers so they continue to be exploited, avoid any accountability by throwing their money at problems, and through legal bribery slowly work toward ensuring Mother Earth dies while they go play spaceman on Mars cuz theyre running out of ideas on how to spend their money. You made an entire video essay admiring a technique of wealth building that doesn't work or even really exist anymore. You are Fry from Futurama booing fellow poor people because you someday MIGHT be that rich. And I mean sure, there are exceptions to every rule, but while only 11 of the top 80 inherited their wealth at the time this was made, when those other 69 rich fossils finally get buried, where do you think all that wealth is gonna go? Certainly not to those who "worked hard" for it...

You had 20+ years to do something about it. 2. To answer all the other the other situations. Circumstances happen. But don't use them as an excuse. My Parents lived by with 4 children on almost $800 to $1000 per month when i was in highschool, my 2 brothers still in elementary after my father's business failed. My Mom worked 2-3 jobs 7 days/week. We are all graduates in 4 years of BSN, now im learning business. Im debt free. Paid a 40k car in 2 years on top of all other bills. I understand where you're coming from. My martial arts master had nothing in his pocket after graduating college. He decided to take a loan and build a martial arts gym. got in debt. He barely ate the first 2 years. Worked when sick. Now has two schools, with 8-10 employees. Vacationing like a madman. That's sacrifice. Thats discipline. Thats finding a way not to be poor again. I don't know where you are in your life right now but that kind of mindset, looking for faults and excuses will not help. Like the video suggests, and all the other people who have made it from rags to riches is this, instead of complaining about what you have, find a way to get out of it.

As with most tales of financial hubris and reckless over-expansion, the architect absconds with the spoils while the company’s employees pay the price. About 4,000 WeWorkers are expected to be fired.
