[@sattler96]

An obvious way to invest for a recession is to buy shares in businesses that are likely to experience steady demand even in a downturn. Typically, those are consumer staples, utilities, and heathcare companies, but off course such decisions cannot be made by an average Joe, a financial advisor is important in making these decisions

[@trane85]

Such considerations can certainly have a role when I think about whether I ought to buy into a share.

I advise you to invest in stocks to balance out your real estate, Even the worst recessions offer wonderful buying opportunities in the markets if you're cautious. Volatility can also result in excellent short-term buy and sell opportunities. This is not financial advice, but buy now because cash is definitely not king right now!

Good general advice. Save money, live frugally, invest intelligently. But it isn’t some set strategy that suits everyone. Also 11% annualised returns? I thought it was 10%. Might not sound like a big difference but it’s pretty huge when you’re compounding for decades. Also there’s no guarantee that the market will keep going up, especially at this 10-11% rate. There’s been periods where the market has gone sideways or even down for decades. There’s nothing to say the annualised return for the next 60 years won’t be -10%. Nothing in investing is certain, not that you shouldn’t invest you totally should. It’s just important that people are aware of the risks.

A million never was the live out your dream number but a millionaire regardless of inflation is really really good and ahead of almost all 🇺🇲. Inflation has become the biggest cop out ever smh.

How does having a pension change investing for retirement?

such a good video

[@williamdavies6468]

Guess i cannot invest since I have to wait until my debt is gone. I am 56 years old. I do invest in my 401k plan and will retire in about 10 years. My debts will take me a while to pay off because my income is not high enough so I use credit cards. I try not to overspend but emergencies happen and I don’t have much in Savings, so use credit cards to get by. I will keep investing so I can some when I retire

[@matthewfontanez8692]

Can you do a video about the mutual fund, index funds, and target date funds? Thank you

[@mattbleiler7294]

“The average millionaire pays off mortgage in 10 years”. Is this an accurate picture? Or is this because it is their 2nd or 3rd mortgage? I want to know how many total years of their life that they were paying for a mortgage.

Harshing on Yeti today, George, haha. I still love you, man. Best Ramsey personality!

[@thomasmccoy326]

I'm confused about his statement regarding compound interest during his Jack and Blake analogy. When we invest, we are buying shares in stocks, bonds, funds. Those shares are exposed to the market and market fluctuations. How does compounding interest play into this? Isn't Jack's money just sitting in funds going up and down with the market?

Would love to see practical advice for those of us who are 65+, retired and debt-free. Too late to become millionaires but comfortable life on a fixed income is the goal. If you have $100K cash, is it better to save in HYSA, buy a home or do something else?

[@alexpietsch7997]

Ask Dave. George ain't going to see any fixed income because we're busy paying for yours

[@donnahampton3632]

If you are willing to get a job, you can put 100% of your income in a retirement account such as a 401k or IRA (up to the annual max). It saves money on taxes. If you are not willing to be employed again, then you can put money in growth stock mutual funds. That is not a retirement account so it doesn't have the tax protection. But over the long run does give you higher earnings than a high yield savings account. HYSA is perfect for your emergency fund, and also for saving up for things that you need to pay for in the next 1 to 5 years.

Why can't you work a bit at part time jobs like pet sitting or tutoring kids? There are plenty of jobs that you don't even have to leave the house.

Look up videos by Josh Scandlen of Heritage Wealth Planning. He does lots of retirement videos with small nest eggs.

The reason teachers make up 1/3 of millionaires is likely they are women dating men who make a lot of money. Just keeping it real on that statistic.

[@Benji-lj9pj]

Don’t listen to some of these comments George, keep going strong! Some of you all have no clue how money really works in the comments section and it really shows 😂 They interviewed thousands of millionaires, so until you do the same or become one yourself I don’t really care.

[@donaldlyons17]

Well they selected the already rich which likely has some survivorship bias in it. Think about it those who made it don't tell how many did similar and yet did not make it. Some people just are not unaware enough to assume George and Ramsey and company are not the survivors.

[@Roxyfull_]

I come for the content but stay for the laughs. 😂 Seriously, George you’re my favoriiiite! Educational and hilarious :)

[@taylorgreen5908]

One thing people fail to do (especially millennials) is INVEST. I made my first million from blue chips and top etfs using a broker so i invested and re-invested my profits. I also acquired large amount of high-quality dividend-paying stocks too that gives me a solid base of passive income. ever grateful to Susan Kay Mack handling my portfolio, two years now and she still surprises me,

[@gagnecaron658]

That’s some good values. sounds like you got something going for you

[@walter.dlawson2580]

I did read about Susan Kay Mack on the web., quite a great resume she has

[@harleycartley3138]

I also think that we salary earners need to realize that monthly income will not make you rich.

[@donaldlocher2537]

Did a quick web search, she has a pretty decent bio, I wrote her and I'm waiting on her reply.
