AGE 20: Average Net Worth: -$31,571
1. GET A CREDIT CARD
The point is to begin building up your credit score as soon as possible, since 50% of your score is made up from your on-time payment history and how LONG you’ve had credit for.
2. OPEN A ROTH IRA
This will allow you to invest $7000 per year and grow your money COMPLETELY TAX-FREE by the age of 59 - meaning, by the time you’re older, everything is pure profit.
3. SAVE 20% OF YOUR INCOME
4. INVEST IN THE MARKETS
AGE 30: Average Net Worth: $42,339
1. GET A CREDIT SCORE OF AT LEAST 750
2. BE BAD-DEBT FREE BY 30 YEARS OLD
This means you’ve paid off any loans or debt that’s above a 5%-6% interest rate, you don’t have any credit card debt or personal loans outstanding, and besides the possibility of a low-interest rate mortgage or student loan…you don’t have anything weighing you down.
3. HAVE A 3-6 MONTH SAFETY FUND
4. AIM FOR 1X YOUR SALARY SAVED
AGE 40: Median Net Worth: $90,000
Average Net Worth: $319,000
1. MAX OUT RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS ANNUALLY
2. MAXIMIZE YOUR EARNINGS
3. HAVE A BUDGET - NO MATTER WAHT
4. KNOW HOW MUCH YOU NEED TO RETIRE
The rule of thumb is that, for a 30-year retirement, you’ll need to have anywhere between 25 to 30x your annual spending invested in order for that money to last you without running out.
AGE 50: Median Net Worth: $290,000
Average Net Worth: $1,300,000
1. HAVE 7-8X YOUR SALARY SAVED, OR 10-12X YOUR EXPENSES
2. BE CLOSE TO PAYING OFF YOUR MORTGAGE
3. HAVE A CLEAR PLAN FOR RETIREMENT
AGE 60: Median Net Worth: $490,000
Average Net Worth: $1,600,000
Top 1% Net Worth: $14,338,000
1. AIM FOR 10-12X YOUR SALARY SAVED UP
2. PAY OFF YOUR PRIMARY RESIDENCE
4. BEGIN WITHDRAWING FROM RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS

Expenses are much more personalized than income. Graham talks a lot about coffee. But for most Americans, the issue is transportation. Many Americans have too much car in thier lives, buying new cars or even expensive old cars with car payments.

@kabloosh699 2 месяца назад

@@General8675that's a good point, but I think right now if you're looking for reliable transportation you're likely going to need to get something that is worth 10-20k and that's if you're only looking at a 4 door sedan. If you're looking for something with a third row for a larger family I'd argue you would need to look more at the 15-25k range. Going lower to that puts you at greater risk of the vehicle failing on you and now you're spending 5k for a major repair.

@oshitomaha 2 месяца назад

⁠⁠@@sfowler1017well, you got some options. These options don’t care about your excuses. So here they are: A) make more income B) actively seek a partner that can contribute with income C) minimize your expenses. The last option is the most doable. Check your bank statements and determine (audit) all the garbage you’re spending that isn’t necessary. Example: DoorDashing, every day coffee, kids unnecessary expenses, terrible car loan, accumulating interest on credit cards, etc. Also, it’s very important to ask your self is this a WANT or is this a NEED. Many people confuse this and justify their need for something that is really just a WANT. Good luck!

The points on age-specific saving goals got me thinking about how crucial a budgeting strategy is in hitting those targets. A lot of people who don't end up with saving enough money is because they don't know how to budget well. Personally, i found that a mix of the 50 (necessities )/30 (fun)/20 (saving and investing) rule and tracking expenses work really well for me.

Because I would assume that most people think about 20% pre tax saving due to the 401k and IRA but how do you add your Roth IRA or Roth 401k to calculate your savings rate? Idk maybe I am just overthinking this, please let me know.

@GrahamStephan 2 месяца назад

@CaedenV 2 месяца назад

Saving a larger percentage at a younger age helps you get ahead waaaaay earlier in life, which can prevent you from getting derailed when life doesn't go your way... but temper that with the fact that life is meant to be enjoyed. A large sacrifice early, for years more enjoyment in the future is a good plan... but don't save for no reason. Define your goals, and when they are met, absolutely slow down on saving so that you can enjoy your hard work.

I probably would have just laughed at anyone trying to talk to me about investing back then.

You had $800 dollars a month free to save at 18?

@@Lherrerajr78 Yes, I did. I have been working since the 7th grade. It’s not about how much you make; it’s about how much you save and how good you are at budgeting that makes or breaks it.

Look into HSA if your employer has a plan. They may match some of your $ and it is good to see it grow when you are young and not going to the doctor much.

Although there is the importance to allocating everything you can to retirement, please remember the fact inflation is a key reason many people end up having to retire later than previously expected. If you plan to retire in 2060 on a $50,000 yearly allocation, at a 2.5% interest rate from now until then that would only lead you with about $20,000 in buying power. Do what you can but don't forget about your buying power in the future.

Ok Graham, I have to say something, there are many videos where you say and number and then the number highlighted is not what you said..... that is all.... Thanks for advice and wish I did a little more in my 20's! I am on year 28 out of College, I wonder how much I could be making, but is it worth it if I have been happy overall!?

When you say we should have 1x or 3x our income saved, is that specifically for retirement? A lot of my savings right now is for a house down payment, but if I ever use it to buy a house, then I’ll be below the threshold again.

Point of this video is start early, if you don’t then you are more than likely going to struggle later in life. Average salaries mentioned are well below what the current determined median salary to live today. I’m above average in the categories and still cannot understand how people can afford to live with children.

Just to add some hope for your older viewers. I only started being smart with money in my late 30s and taking it really seriously in my mid-40s. I'm about to turn 52 and I've managed to get ahead of the curve in terms of ensuring I have enough for retirement. It took discipline, dedication, and getting out of my comfort zone with regards to investing but it was so worth it. Things are now more or less on auto-pilot financially for the rest of my working career. Something I haven't seen you mention in your videos (and I don't know if this exists in the USA) is income protection insurance. I have that set up for myself here in Australia such that I am guaranteed sufficient income for at least 10 years should I lose the ability to work. That's tied to longer-term life insurance. Both of those are tax deductible investments that were well worth making to cover my family and me if the worst happens.

Graham, here's an idea: do a contest where one lucky winner will mentor with you over the course of a year to improve their financial situation. It would be a lot more hands on than what Caleb does, so yes it would a time commitment. But someone like me, who is WAY behind in terms of retirement, would be eternally grateful to you, and you could turn it into a long term video series. And it seems like it would do extremely well. Kinda like Mark Manson but for finances.

I realize my jobs pay( Hyundai) is stuck in the early 2000s. No raises, no performance reviews, nothing. I take that back, our commission is reduced depending on how much we sell. So they are keeping us stuck, right where we're at.
