In this video, I break down how Monica and I INVEST our Nursing income. We set a goal to invest at least $6k per month in pre and post-tax income.
Now that we are back to work, after spending nearly 4 months off for baby bonding time, we are on track to invest at a very minimum $6k per month and hope to eventually increase that amount to $9k per month.
In this video I take you all the way back to 2015, the year we first started investing, all the way through 2021. I take a deep dive into our portfolio and show you every single type of investment we have accumulated over these last 6 years.
You finally get a first glance at what it's like for two nurses earning $350,000+/year who are trying to reach financial independence and retire early (FIRE, and in our case, more specifically, FatFIRE) in less than 10 years.

I'm not 100% satisfied with it and would have liked to have included more details (cryptocurrencies and dividend stocks portfolio breakdown), but I didn't want to bore you all with too much information. So, maybe I'll leave that for another video if you guys are interested. Also, my paycheck is here that includes 14 of the 18 days I worked.

I can't tell you enough that your video production, transitions, storytelling is off the hook! I don't know if people understand the hours you've put into producing this 12 minute piece in addition to your work run. In the long run, it will add to your KZfaq revenue share when other nurses catch on and binge watch and cause a spike in your watch time and retention. The retention piece is what I'm impressed about. Almost hypnotic at times. Which part of the financial industry were you in before becoming a nurse? Your Excel spreadsheets are on point. Keep up the great work and Congratulations to the growing family. This video makes me want to level up after 28 years of nursing. My wife and I are ER nurses too.

Wow, thanks so much for this comment. I'm a big numbers person and I'm always trying to do something to increase our retention rate, average view duration, and click through rate. I'm surprised that another RN would be aware that all of those things are important things to consider when run ING a KZfaq channel. It really does take me up to a week or two just to make a 10+ minute-long video because a lot of research and education (on my part) has to go behind it since I don't want to be putting out information that isn't vetted. I worked as an administrative assistant at a corporate bank with brokers that sold treasury bonds when I was in my late teens and early 20s, as a business major in college. The reason they gave me the job there was because I told them I knew how to use excel (I did not, lol, and I actually had to teach myself as I went-before youtube was a thing). You've been a nurse for a while so I'm sure you are probably thinking to yourself "damn we should have applied to Kaiser in Sacramento a long time ago and we'd be rich by now", lol.

@@NursesToRiches Actually, I was doing 3 doubles as an independent contractor for California prisons back in early 2000s as well as working ER just to allow my wife to stay home with our kids because it was important for us to have a parent home to raise them. Our 2nd daughter (22) is going to be finishing her 1st year as a nurse and her mom, her older sister, and I have been accelerating her nursing journey to make sure she continues her positive momentum. She's on the F.I.R.E. trajectory with over $20K saved so far. I will have to share with you a picture I made of her reading my "How to pay ZERO taxes" when she was 3, 17 and 22 years old. I understand about the KZfaq KPIs because I told my daughter, Alyssa, that if I had to start all over again, I would start a Media company as a nurse (which you and Monica are doing). She's got 1 million views on her Tik Tok, got her LinkedIn profile (Alyssa Tajanlangit) and I will be featuring her on a brand new KZfaq channel. On my end, I went into becoming a Medicare Nurse Navigator because that's where nursing attention is headed in the next 5-10 years. If you have your life and health insurance license with your media skills and talk about Medicare, your'e going to be unstoppable. Nurses have to find skills that are not tied to working in the hospital. That's my message to my 2 daughters and wife who are nurses. Digital assets (websites), Media and BRANDING are scalable, NOT bedside nursing. Let's go !!! Let's connect, I've DM'd you. Wishing you more future success fam!

She said she has to work a year before she is able to use the hospital’s 403b. I am from New York City, served a career in the military and retired to Texas. I receive my pensions and work full time in a high paying job and have a Roth 401k for the bank that I work in. I own two homes and never would live in Cali or NYC due to the high taxes and expensive homes. My goal is to pay off my homes and then travel around the world; again, but this time as a civilian. Hopefully before I reach 60 lol. Move to Texas sir!!

You have to remember that healthcare here in the US is privatized. This means that, at the beginning of the pandemic, when we had to shelter in place and hospitals were canceling all elective surgeries, the hospitals weren't making any money. It wasn't until congress started providing relief to hospitals that they began to hire more nurses and offer more overtime.

You should invest in your hospital's 403b first, you can always roll it over to the next hospital you work in.

Yes, contribute to your 403b.

Hi! I know many nurses that have stay-at-home husbands and are living comfortably. But, this is mainly because they are earning more money in this part of California than anywhere else in the country. One nurse in particular has 4 children, 3 of them from a previous marriage for which she pays child support. Her current husband is a stay-at-home husband. She bought their house for $550k. Her net worth is $750k. She has $70k in an emergency fund, $40k to spend on fun activities per year, and she has no debt. This would obviously be much harder to do in Texas because the salaries are at least half of what we eran here.
