    Really like the new video upload format lately.
    Instead of focusing on 3 videos a day I couldn't hope to all watch, instead I get a much more manageable to watch one-video-a-day, plus top 10 videos that are long enough to leaving playing while I doing monotonous task like cleaning.

      I have a long charge cord for my phone. I usually drive by myself, so I will find a video about the length of my drive. I set the phone in the back of my drivers seat pouch and let it play. It has helped so much. I wish I would have actually followed this months ago.

      while not trying to say these ways are wrong an option for your everyday kinda gal or guy is to get into a company with an ESOP. one its a good way to not have a "whats the point they make more money i dont" kinda attitude which initself is a better quality of life. two when your company does well and you have a significant amount of stock that you have earned every year you stay with the company when the bigger fish comes to buy it out youre getting a big payday. im not going into details since id rather not be held for ransom but my dads company which he had a very decent amnt of stock in sold for 500m and he is an engineer, now project manager. being an engineer was already a well paying job but the right company is key over job title :) !

      Don't give all the credit to "God" you made yourself rich
      Edit:
      Don't mean this in an offensive way, believing in God won't help you become Richer or Poorer, but being dedicated will
      that's why there is still poor Christians and rich Christians you can't simply become rich just because you pray hard enough you gotta put in the work

      Justin the electrical company I work for right now specializes on custom mansions, so I normally ask the home owners for one piece of advice for a 20 year old wanting to do big things. That helps me out and also seeing the mansions and all the cars keeps me really motivated and inspired.

      @@ExoticTuber it sounds like you have a decent idea as to what you want to do, flipping real estate is a good way to make money too, especially if youre willing to do some work by hand. Idk what its like where you live but for me if the house is my primary residence then it's tax free. As for ecommerce, theres lots of ways to make money in that, and you can scale pretty easily to millions of dollars a year if you know what youre doing, but if you planned on doing dropshipping then good luck, its not like it was in 2018.
      If I were you, id look into doing some real estate wholesaling. It doesnt require money, you can make good money, it will teach you how to determine what is truly a good deal and you can get a big network of other investors and possibly a mentor. Your network is your networth. Good luck in the future

      @@Hellokitty7163 I guess that depends on the projected motive you have to insinuate something based on race. I'm willing to bet most millionaires in Hong Kong are Asian. I'd also be willing to bet most millionaires in Saudi are middle eastern. Unfortunately, to continue to answer your question, here in America all cultures do no perform equally. The Asian community here generally as a whole experience "white privilege" more than other races since they more often have a two parent house-hold, are far less likely to be on drugs, lower incidents of crime and incarceration, are more likely to become a college graduate and experience higher incomes per capita than other races here. The problem is sometimes culture can hold a whole group of people down and when you're not allowed to address that problem without extreme criticism and blow-back than there is very little you can do to change it from the inside to help.
      Also, this is America buttercup, everyone has opportunity here no matter what race you are. You should see if you can think of any institutional privilege afforded to only white people. Then, let us know. Food for thought.

Do everything to remain healthy and enjoy hobbies. My wife and I love to travel with our kids. We have been to 20 different cruises, we have traveled to Europe etc. I am retiring next year at 56 and can't wait to get to more places. And if you are asking, net work a little over 5 million. it can be done if you don't have bad debt which I consider CC debt, car loan debt, and student loan debt. Mortgage is ok because you are leveraging but still pay it off in less than 15 years.

I’m no where near a millionaire but the past 7 years of being smart set me up to own 2 businesses without taking on debt to do so. It took time but not going into debt to start my main business (automotive repair shop) made my over head super low so pretty much from the start I was making money. Had I needed to take on debts my overhead could be so high that I wouldn’t make any money for a long time which could turn into the business closing.

    I just turned 21, and started saving about 1.5 months ago and doing everything. Just stopped myself from purchasing a new car which would be $399 a month over 73 months. I make roughy $25000 net and also a full Time college student studying industrial engineering technology. I have 1.5 more years and I alt for school with cash and no student loans. Saving around $1k-1200 a month and it feels so good :))!

    I like how he mentions being in the military and becoming a millionaire. A good friend of mine was in the military for 30 years and bought 7 homes, 6 he rent out for 2k a pop; he gets 10k a month from the military til he dies; and he just retired from doing data entry at a hospital making 90k a year. Btw, the military paid for his Phd. His only vice is cars, but he's incredibly cheap elsewhere. He bargains a lot at home improvement stores and turned his modest 4 bedroom home on one acre into a 3.5k sqft home on five acres. Same address, btw. People think you have to make a million a year to be rich, but it's really a modest income plus wise investments.

    finding dave as a younger viewer feels like i won the jackpot. this is the first time in my life, 24 years old, that i have goals for a new year and am EXCITED to start working towards all my debts. 5k in consumer debts will be paid off this week, 4k will be in my savings, once i hit 10k im putting all extra income on to paying off my truck, then save save save!
