I'm 53 and fall into the high net worth category, but I can honestly say that I feel like I'm middle class. There are so many things that I cannot afford and I see people buying expensive homes, boats and cars and I'm scratching my head wondering how they can afford it. The truth is that they probably cannot and are assuming huge debts loads which is not a good idea.

The one statement that resonated with me the most, "Some high net-worth don't feel like they are!" I've literally caught myself saying I live like the average American. I sometimes don't think about what we earn and what we invest, it is just part of our routine.

Great video! I did 401k many years at a % rather than a set amount. Started out low, 3-5%. Since it’s tax deferred didn’t notice as bad. Finally grew to 19% for several years. The good thing I noticed about % rather than a set amount, was that it grew faster with raises or overtime worked and it happened automatically.

I retired a year ago. I now have a liquid net worth of over $5 million. I know my net worth to the penny at any given time because I have been using the Mint App religiously for 10 years. It gives me the ability to categorize in detail every expense. (I always use credit cards and rarely ever use cash so these expense are tracked real time.) I can run reports to monitor spending in every category. It also contains an excellent budgeting function that is tied to these categories and let’s you know the minute you go over. A tool like this is extremely helpful to reach High Net Worth status.

I followed the Dave Ramsey Baby Steps and became high net worth in 2020 at 42 years old. I'm an Engineer and have always invested in my company 401K. Now I'm going all in and increased my savings rate to almost 30% of my gross when you include 401K, IRAs, HSA, 529s, and an after tax brokerage account.

I have a net worth of 2.2M, live on a single income budget of about 70k net for a family of four. We have been debt free for six years including the house, but then we hired a CFP and committed to not touching the investments and are keeping our family budget strictly separate. We now have 15k in debt from AC replacement and medical expenses so now I'm not feeling like I'm high net worth while working on paying it off over the next year while we continue to max out the 401k, HSA, and his and her IRA's. Once I eliminate the debt I will then work on building up our emergency fund as the current one is only 3 months.

Hi Erin, We first wanted to pay off our cars and never have another car loan again while matching 401K . My second priority was to pay the house off early and never have a house payment again ( done at age 42) still matching 401 K , With these paid off I went to 20% in our 401 K and hit that goal in our 50's . Mortgage rates were 18% when we had our home built in 1984 so it was a priority to pay it off ASAP

$1m liquid was considered HNWI in the early 90s (when 401ks, index funds, discount brokerages, etc all started taking off). It's a nice round number, but eventually it needs an inflation adjustment. $250k-$2.5m is the new mass affluent, the land of the robo-advisor or Edward Jones kinda retail. $2m... probably closer to $2.5m these days is what HNWI used to mean.

The "root cause" of "low net worth" is the continued transfer of power, control, and wealth from working individuals/communities to the elites. Transfers are via; debt (private/public), rents, taxes (federal, state, local, sales, etc.), inflation, insurance, medical, higher education costs, and conflicts, etc. And these transfers are facilitated by the political class. Just incredible the power and wealth held by the generational financial dynasties (mostly of Europe - Bank of England was founded in 1694).

I think overall the distinction between "saving" and "investing" is irrelevant semantics. You're either spending money or saving money (i.e. not spending). Investing is a kind of savings. You could get more technical and say you're "spending" money to buy stocks, but the functional use of investing is exactly the same as saving in a high-yield savings account: set money aside and let it grow until I need it at a future time. The distinction becomes relevant when you're talking about literally /where/ to put the dollars: a savings account vs. investment vehicle. But in the context of wealth building, it's just a matter of spending or not spending, and investing counts as not spending.

@JohnPMiller

$200/month=$2400/year. In your best case of 6% interest, you'd have to set aside $40000 to generate the income to pay the monthly bill. Oops, I forgot that you pay taxes on the interest. Even in the 10% tax bracket, that means you need to set aside $44444 to cover your bill. Oops, I forgot that your bills increase each year. Also, many people aren't in the 10% tax bracket, and many aren't earning 6% interest. I agree that you should also try to increase your interest rate. At 0.01%, you'd have to set aside $24M, and that's before taxes! We need a Xavier Niel to come to America and lower our Internet & cell phone subscriptions, as he did in France.

Based on your "by age" numbers as someone who just turned 30 I am well passed that.

I feel like to get a million liquid at a non-retirement age, say in your 40s, does take a high income. Yes you need to keep your spending under control, but if someone is making $50k a year in a country with a moderate tax rate of say 25-30% of that, take off food, housing, transportation and you're not left with a whole lot of dollars to invest. The stock market is where the money should be, but as we've seen that will go up and down. Also most employees will default to a DC pension plan that has bond and equity components, which mean lower growth on those savings.

If I had used and followed the advice of a typical advisor I would be almost broke at this point. I started late and invested in full knowledge of a rather risky company, Tesla. That would never have been done under the advice of an investment advisor. From my experience I would be invested in a series of high cost mutual funds or ETFs or possibly some REITs. I would be sitting on maybe $250K not 2.5 times that. I used one years ago and fairly quickly figured out its a scam. Better to learn what I needed and follow my educated direction.

It depends on if you have a mortgage or not. If you own your home then I say you can count it in your net worth. If you have a mortgage, subtract the mortgage amount from the appraisal amount, if the appraisal is more. That is the equity in your home. I believe if that is a positive amount you should be be able to count the equity as an asset, hence it should be included in your net worth.

Not really. For the average American career worker making good financial choices, your pay increases and your debts decrease over that time such that you can save a lot more, plus you will have a benefit of your compounding interest start rolling faster and faster. The reality is that for most people in this range (top 10% by age) it will take longer to get to $100k than it will to go from $100k to $500K. What's really eye opening is that it will likely take longer to get to that first $100k than it will to go from $1M TO $2M.

I enjoyed this video! I have been playing catch up on investments since I paid off my house. I decided to front load to my max 401k contributions over the first 4 months of the year. Luckily my new employer offers a true-up. I can see $760 more dollars per paycheck when I up pretax 401k contributions to 45%. I'd love to see a video about the tax incentives of maxing out 401k's from a pay check to check and yearly point of view.

This also includes max HSA per paycheck too.

I try to max out my 401 K early in the year as well. Most people at my office do not contribute to their 401 K leaving the company match on the table. With the company match, I am able to contribute 50K per year towards retirement. 15 more years to go until retirement. I also have a pension from work. I am not counting on Social Security. The government will find some way of screwing me out of my retirement. People that do the right thing are never rewarded by the government.

Just a different way of asking the same question - mostly just depends on what it means to you. PS, I cut my own hair, my hubby hair and my dogs hair too 😂

Even though I am considered a high net worth individual, I am living paycheck to paycheck. After mortgage, taxes, 401K, 529 plan, insurance, savings, food etc. now with inflation and gas prices skyrocketing I feel like I am broke.

Great video! I'm fortunate to have that 7 figure amount. I could have gotten their much faster had I been more aggressive with investments. And I'm not talking about taking risk! But I recommend folks go aggressive with ETFs, stay away from bonds and money market accounts..... AND set-up an account with Vanguard. Their fees are low!!!
