      Disappointing. No one should be using a party name as an insult--certainly not when the other party has increased our national debt by over $1 TRILLION DOLLARS since inauguration day. We should //all// be contributing and getting this debt gone. The US is actually broke! I mean you couldn't run a household like this, just like he always explains to us.
      I love Dave as a person, but I really wish he'd "put his money where his mouth is," in how he views politics.

    I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Charlotte Miller.

    I like investing in close-end funds that pay monthly dividends. The trick is to hold long term and reinvest the monthly dividends plus buy more shares on a monthly basis or when ever you can afford to. This can be easily done because close-end funds are bought and sold on the stock market just like regular stock. That’d be enough to create a portfolio that would pay you between $50k to $70k in dividend income

      I totally concur. I'm 60 years old, just retired, and have about $1.2M in outside retirement savings. I don't have any debt, and the amount of retirement savings I have relative to the overall value of my portfolio over the last three years is minuscule. To be completely honest, using a portfolio advisor when investing is brilliant!

      The name of my investment advisor is "Sharon Louise Count." She is a true genius when it comes to diversified portfolios, which make portfolios less susceptible to market downturns, and has a strong reputation in her area. You may already be familiar with her name; a Newsweek article gave me the information I needed. She is someone you could Google.

We maxed out our Roth IRAs and retirement accounts every year and also invested in the stock market with the help of a financial planner. We love our way of life.

      He’s right of course. I’m not sure what the amount of wealth is that allows a Ferrari but I imagine it’s where everything is paid for including a lavish retirement, and an “emergency fund” that can cover a decade of expenses.
      Then you just have to be smart and buy a super car that maintains its value or even appreciates. Those are the specialty Porsches and limited run Ferraris and Lambos.

      We're going from spending on whatever to trying to spend nothing at all, which is a huge change. I get that. So we worked out a compromise. When we get paid, we take a certain amount of cash out of our bank account that we use to spend on whatever we want. Judgement free. No questions asked.
      Having physical currency is slightly more difficult to spend, so my wife is starting to spend slightly less, so it helps. Since we started this, there have been less debit transactions from our bank account, and we have 100% accountability of where our money goes.
      I also reiterated to her that our credit cards were for emergencies only. Any and all credit card use from either of us needs to be communicated to each other.

      @George Miller I actually don’t worry about the risks, my FA Frost Hilda defines the risks on each trades and manages all risks effectively, and ensure there’s been succession of consistent payouts. In few months I’m expecting over a million dollar in stocks as raw profits. I’m least bothered about the risk.

    • @KyraHogue
      @KyraHogue Pƙed 5 lety

      Pierre Lamothe I’m not too sure how he’d guide on the joint responsibilities of the CC. I do know he recommends against being financially joined until after marriage. For the collection agency, you can see if they’ll be willing to have you pay a lesser amount on the debt, “pennies to the dollar” as he would say. Don’t pay a dime until you get it in writing. But I just follow Financial Peace University, and am not affiliated with him. He may have a video on that topic on this channel.

We have two cars that we paid cash on, and working to pay off our mortgage. You CAN be married and do this if you find someone with the same mindset.
      We wished we would’ve saved better in our single years. Neither one of us had much, and our friends treated us as if we are poor...we just lived below our means and would drive just one car to save money...now our friends are in loads of debt,downsizing, even though they are two income families, and how we as a one income family, are slowly building up our wealth.

    Dave Ramsey, you are an inspiration. Thankfully I was introduced to your videos at a very young age, and it became the gateway to my desire to want to become wealthy, not only in this lifetime, but for future generations. This video is crucial because it teaches patient, discipline, and prioritizes longevity versus short term reward. And the most important part in all in to be generous and bless others around you.

      But that’s an incredibly simplistic view of finances. Many people leverage their debt to allow their money to work harder for them than if they simply paid off their debt. This leads to a higher net worth in the long run and many people who are loaded actually carry some debt.
