At the age of 43, Tom retired from his 9-5 at Ford Motor through a combined effort of savings and stock market investments, although, on the day when he graduated college, he didn't have a penny to his name.
Tom reached $1,000,000 and quit his 9-5 to live off his investments before his 44th birthday. More than half of that money came from returns in the stock market, and his investments helped him reach this number 14 years earlier than his salary alone would have done. With this type of money Tom was confident that his stock market returns could cover his yearly expenses.
This is the story of Tom’s accomplishment.

There are many ways to get there - investing in the stock market, becoming a stock trader, doing real estate investing, or why not becoming an entrepreneur? But whether you are interested in how to invest in stocks or investing strategies for creating passive income with rental properties - I hope to be able to provide you with a solution (or at least an idea) here. Warren Buffett - the greatest investor of our time - says that you should fill your mind with competing ideas and then see what makes sense to you. This channel is about filling your mind with those ideas. And in the process - upgrading your money-making toolbox.

I’d say at this point, you gotta have cash on the side and exposure so that you don’t completely fumble during bearish times, just to come out with nothing but buying bags too high later on. Not a financial advisor, just my two cents of advice.

@AugustoRosario22 6 дней назад

Yes, hiring a pro totally makes sense; competence surpasses ideas. 🔥

@BlaiseOnowhosa 6 дней назад

I think it's especially difficult for retirees and near retirees, I know to focus on the long term but the anxiety when you're supposed to be retiring in 3years is super exhausting, I've been looking into hiring a market expert as well.

@AugustoRosario22 6 дней назад

I totally agree, money management is vital to early retirement, reason I prefer my day to day invt decisions being guided by a invt-coach, 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 a invt-coach for over 2years+ and I've netted over 1.5million

The market trend can turn around very quickly. In fact, the indexes often switch from a bear market to a bull market when the news is at its worst and the mood of investors is at its lowest point. I read an article of people that grossed profits up to $150k during this crash, what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist?

@Elizabeth-mh2dj 3 дня назад

Investors should be cautious about their exposure and be wary of new buys, especially during inflation. Such high yields in this recession is only possible under the supervision of a professional or trusted advisor.

True, initially I wasn't quite impressed with my gains, opposed to my previous performances, I was doing so badly, figured I needed to diversify into better assets, I touched base with a portfolio-advisor and that same year, I pulled a net gain of 550k...that's like 7times more than I average on my own.

@metasamsara 5 месяцев назад

When you start researching many fields in your spare time methodically on the Internet you realize "experts" don't know shit. They follow the money, that's all there is to it. By having no superior funding your research you can actually dive in the deep end and make sense of it all much better than experts with agenda can even extrapolate if they tried through their vouched official sources and previously manipulated data from a previous money agenda. It's also getting outdated to listen to warren's advice saying you need 100k before easing off. This is for a tradfi environment but in crypto the small money investors stand a much better chance to outperform on big money with cunning, wits, research and measured risks. In tradfi a big return year would be 10-100% roi. In crypto you could easily aim for 50-1000%. that means you only need $10000 before easing off. As long as you train yourself well with little money that you can't afford to lose, it will become a lot easier to scale it with a smaller income and/or less time.

Exactly. Which, the market average is such that being average is fine. $1k/month into S&P500 gets you to $1M 20ish years. Also, how is our seer here withdrawing and living off his investments? If he put them into a 401k for tax savings he can't really pull them out. Even then, 4% would mean he is burning down that pile of money. Healthcare costs are also a PITA not accounted for here.

20:00 is where this goes from a parable to a fantasy “Tom was able to beat the market by 4% each year by picking stocks”.

@Encryptsan Год назад

It's not that unbelievable. Tom was researching a lot about investing and knew how to look for companies which were undervalued, or which were growing faster than the general market. Heck, just look at Berkshire Hathaway, which could lose 99.3% of its value and *still* have outperformed the S&P 500 index since 1965. It's true that not a huge amount of investors outperform the market, but the point is to educate yourself well enough that you can become one of the investors who do.

@Unknown-lu2ft Год назад

Ikr, if you have a strong finance background you will know that it’s a fantasy even from the beginning when he said Tom followed Warren and picked only stocks like FANG. If the guy who made a video studied Finance as a major he would have known that Warren and his mentor (Benjamin Graham) invested active/passive with a portfolio of at least 30 stocks back in the day, now you may even consider spx 500 ETF as a passive investing way. And we, the finance people use quantitative ways to picks the stock, not like just shopping it like grocery bruh. And the guy talked about beating the market lmao. May be if Tom was lucky and bought the stocks during crisis like Coivd19 which happen once in a life time. I can’t even bear watching the whole video, then I saw your comment. Like minded!

@alecc8231 7 месяцев назад

Finally, I understand what 'paying yourself first' really means. It means the opposite of paying somebody else (new car, expensive vacation, new Apple phone). You also need to carefully plan how much are you going to pay yourself. And then you would treat yourself as a business, just like Ford, property owners, and Apple Inc. Basically, trying to manage your money and learn to manage your money. Or call it "Pay to your fund first" before making frivolous purchases. Or at least match each luxury purchase with investing in your fund. And if you can't afford to make a luxury purchase and simultaneously make a matching investment, then skip the purchase until you can make a matching investment to your purchase! Thank you, Swedish Investor your visual presentation clicked with me!

@xathrax3119 2 года назад

While I totally agree on the general idea of saving and putting money in safe investments that compound over the years, the actual video had a few points that seemed a bit off. First, setting 1k aside per month in your 20s is not possible for the vast majority of people. When I was that age that was my whole monthly salary for quite some time. So unless you live with your parents who will feed you till your 30s I doubt this is feasable. The second thing was about him consistently beating the market. Since you quoted Buffet several times you should know that he also states that the vast majority of professional investors cannot beat the market over a large period of time. So no, the vast majority of regular people will not achieve this. For this reason when you state in the end that you could earn more than the guy who can make considerably more savings than the average person and beats the stock market it is quite false.

When i started, i made the same misstakes as Tom :-) But what i found out is, "Discipline" is the key. if you can increase it, you can make everything, and you can stay with your own rules. Many lose money, because they dont stay with their rules, and dont accept that the slow money is the better one. In the first time when i made the misstakes i also had always a bad sleep bec. i feared that my decision will break my neck :-) To go save and slow is waaaay better for your psych and you can stay relaxed. I always only invested 1%-3% -5% which depends on the Risk/Reward ratio which i calculated before. On a high risk deal i went only with 1% or sometimes less. On low risk i went up to 5%. All trades i made, i calculated before how much i will get back, and how much i will lose in the worst case. Then i had a checklist, which i followed ALL THE TIME!!! 1. Calculate the RW-Ratio 2. How is the trend going in a longterm... 3. ... till 15. never make a trade you planed before. First you sleep better. Second you make no stupid decisions. Third if you lose what is a part of the game, you had the chance to win a loooooot more. Hope it helped some ppl a lot. AND try also to invest in companies - in real - learn finance, invest in your self, find good mentors. I invested over 250.000 Dollars in Webinars, Books, Courses and so on. In the end, you should love to work with money, if not, i dont think you will have success. Trading is a game, which you can learn to win, like reading the charts. But handle it like a pilot with the list, and only trade if you have checkmarked all points on your list, then you dont make stupid decisions. Because there is "trading" (calculated investing) and "gambling" (hoping for luck). To have success in longterm, dont try to be the gambler 🙂 Sorry for my bad english 🙂

This video is great. Will drive a lot of retail investors into losing money on the stock market and drive up my ETFs.

Currently I'm just being smart and frugal with my money, I'm in the green 47% over the last 23 months and l've accumulated over $70K in pure profits from DCA’ing into stocks, ETFs, dividends and futures. However I’ve been in the red for a month now. I work hard for my money, so investing is making me a nervous sad wreck. I don’t know if I should sell everything, sit and just wait.

@@WalterDorcas Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

Generally speaking probably fairly true. You can make some good guesses based on the direction you think things are heading and stuff; but unless you have knowledge or insight that typical investors don't, you're not going to get anything special. Alternatively if you are willing to do your own business, you might be able to leverage opportunities that require more effort than the average investor is putting in, and thus see higher returns.

@@samfrostinjapan most people aren’t savvy enough or have the time to dedicate to research, but supposing they are savvy, have the time to research, and understand the information, they probably could beat the market much of the time. However, that’s an incredibly small amount of people

@samfrostinjapan 2 года назад

@@justinelliott3529 I agree. It's especially true when you consider that there are techniques and software that professionals are going to have that beat out any average joe's decisions. An average person might still be able to win with local/personal knowledge though. For instance if someone near you is making a startup with a promising business model, you may be able to judge rather it will be successful better than a stranger on an open market as you might know the individuals involved and their capabilities. Alternatively, mixing some labor into capital investments (doing business) can bring higher results than just work or just investments.

The information in this video is bullsh*t and gets many key components of sound financial literacy and sound personal finance habits incorrect. It's a cute animation with a cute story but that's it.

Crossed The Line at 33. Less mistakes and more saving made most of the time difference. Can confirm most of this is the truth. But if you could consistently beat the market by 4% we'd all know your name. You should be in index funds if you have a full-time job and can't research companies full-time like Warren. If you're serious about investing and want the right answer even if it's not flashy, I'd recommend Ben Felix's channel. No fancy animations but grounded in thorough academic research. Good luck grasshoppa. 📈

Dear Erik, As a fellow content creator, focused on a Spanish Speaking Audience, I decided to make an adaptation in spanish of your video that I consider a brilliant and inspiring way to explain how a regular person can obtain financial freedom by making the right decisions in the right time in their lifetime At the end of the adaptation video I mentioned that is inspired on your original video. Also I tagged your channel in the description so the viewers of my channel can easily find yours and watch the original video if they want.
