    What Is The Minority Mindset?
    The Minority Mindset has nothing to do with the way you look or what kind of family you're from. It's a mindset.
    Give the majority $200 and they will come back with a pair of shoes. Give the minority $200 they will come back with $2,000.
    Think from the mindset of a consumer and be the provider, that's the Minority Mindset. Don't be the majority. #MIH #ThinkMinority

      You should explore rosters of dividend aristocrats and select six to ten from the compilation.

      I quite agree. Which is why I prefer to entrust my day to day investment decision to a financial advisor. With their specialized knowledge, it is highly unlikely for them to underperform. Their expertise is focused on harnessing the asymmetrical potential of risk while employing measures to safeguard against unfavorable outcomes. I have been collaboting with a financial coach for the past two years netting over $800k profit in all my portfolio holdings.

    Another thing to consider, which I’ve rarely heard mentioned: tax deductions and credits. I have 5 kids under age 18 right now. That’s 5 large tax breaks I have right now, that I won’t have when I retire. So you better believe I’m doing Roth 401k contributions right now. My taxes are depressed right now because of those deductions and credits, which lessens the tax burden on my Roth contributions.

    Good Morning Jaspreet! I think having both are good especially if you have an employer that matches. Never leave money on the table is a valuable lesson that I have been taught. I think I could do better with my Roth. I need to max it out. I am almost there, but I need to get there. Almost is not good enough!

    • @RATM1971
      @RATM1971 Pƙed 3 lety +3

      Having both is only good because the employer match is tax-deferred, otherwise Roth all the way. Besides the fact that growth is tax-free, a Roth IRA has no RMDs. People who have really saved for retirement in a traditional can get kicked up into high tax brackets with RMDs even if they don't need the money. That screws up your medicare premiums and everything else.

    • @janettemartel9643
      @janettemartel9643 Pƙed rokem

      @@RATM1971 agree. There's RMDs if peeps leave their money in a company 401k/457b plan Roth after they retire...if you get your money out of employer plan and rollover outside you must liquidate assets to rollover 401k Roth funds to an individual Roth...also must already have an established individual Roth account opened so can rollover into and best if done as early as possible because have to hold funds in Roth IRA for 5 years before able to withdraw. funds. Bit of strategic planning needed but then can rollover and reinvest!

    I started watching this because I wondered if I could use part of my 401k for stock investments. When I saw the option, I started clicking through and it prompted me to convert my traditional 401k to a Roth 401k. Now I know the difference, I would actually prefer a Roth 401k but am unsure if my employer with continue to match my 4%. I guess I have to call l HR on Monday and get some questions answered. Oh, and you have a new sub here. Great work.

  • @SlickGamble
    @SlickGamble Pƙed 4 lety +5

    Another angle to consider: You gotta know your bracket and for moderate income earners, there's very high value in the pre-tax savings since you are stretching the amount you earn at the 12% bracket. You can get up close to 70k earned income before you run out of easy runway. How? Maximum contribution to the 401k, HSA pretax investing and the 12k standard deduction. After that, you'll need taxable investment money to take advantage of other possible options such as charitable donations, tax loss harvesting, etc.

    Sadly, mine was a pre-tax deduction so when I pulled out money, I had to pay tax on the entire amount. 😱 Rolled it over into an IRA before taking a distribution.
    I pulled out a large sum to purchase a rental property. Now I have to pay tax on the money I pulled out this year to pay the tax for what I took out last year. Live and learn. I should have bought the property inside of a self directed IRA.

    Traditional 403b. Is a way to think of this as just income in retirement. if you make or if you withdraw 100K a year that is what you pay taxes on.

    MM you mentioned that while we are not taxed on the amount that our Roth 401k earns, we are taxed on the amount our employers contributed over time. My question is how does the IRS keep track of that amount over the years so they can tax us correctly and how do we know that the IRS is taxing us correctly? I've had several different employers 401k Roths and some employers have changed the amount they match from year to year. Great video. It made me consider things that I dont think I've considered before.

The US fund has higher highs, and higher lows compared to the global fund. Global one costs 0.11%, and the US one costs 0.21%. I don't live in the USA, so this is what I can choose from. Which one would be better to invest in? The way I see it is that it's the US stocks that weigh the most in the global fund. Some say US stocks are overvalued and that's why a global fund is better. Thoughts?

    Not financial advice, but: Roth 401k is pretty good if you can do it. No taxes on gains, I think no taxes on dividends as well... That's the big difference between Roth IRA/401k investing and normal taxable account investing. Plus your money is not completely locked in until retirement.

    Depends on age and individual tax situation, younger and/or lower earners should go for roth (because of longer growth time for compound interest), higher earners should go for 401k. Also, if you think you will have very little income in retirement (think 65 and older) (ie social security could be gone, or pension goes away) go for 401k in a middle income earning bracket (currently 22/24% and up). Also, if tax brackets change, it's also time to reevaluate your plan. There are so many factors, and you did a great job addressing the benefits and drawbacks of each option.

    The important thing is to get into at least one or the other. As statistics show, people have a very difficult time saving money. A 401k requires very little effort...the money is invested without you lifting a finger, and you can't get to it very easily, meaning it will stay in your account, plus there is generally a match involved. A Roth requires you to write a check or set up direct payments, allows you access to the money, making it very tempting and easy to pull it out, defeating and eroding your retirement goals. We know how life gets in the way of our plans, many people intend to invest but somehow they never get around to it....a 401k is funded before you get your check. Taxes can change on the Roth also. The gov. is licking it's chops to tax the earnings, and don't think they wont pass a law to get to it. All the "free" stuff that is so casually tossed about, is not free to those who have to fund it.
    So you need to do something. The thing is you can do both. The more you save, the better off you will be. I have never complained about making money.
