@@LordFluffingtonsaccording to my calculations (🤓), 500k growing a few thousand a week (assuming that is 3500), would mean close to 40% a year. Don’t think you will get that from dividends. The few thousand a month is more reasonable and would (I think) be a bit under 9% a year (still assuming 3.5k a month). I know it’s being withdrawn and not left in to grow, but the market wouldn’t care right? also disclaimer my calculations are a bit rough. A rate of 9% a year is a bit much to expect of dividend stocks, they wouldn’t be very stable to achieve that. edit: acknowledging that you said might, and weren’t overconfidently asserting your numbers and strategy.

I let an insurance salesman talk us into a whole/term policy. Had it for about 20 years. The term served its purpose and we got rid of it when we no longer needed to hedge against possible death (financially speaking). But in the end the whole policy was essentially just a forced-savings plan at the rate of inflation. We just roughly got our money back from the whole premiums. We could have invested those premiums in the market and made a *LOT* more money. Whole might be good if you really just want to move cash from one place to another and not have a huge tax bill for your heirs. That assumes you have cash in excess of what you spend and save and invest (most people don't). For the typical saver, my advice is just get term when you're young and drop it when you no longer need it. Skip the whole insurance and invest elsewhere.

It's not that there aren't investments out there that can make 34%. The problem is that anything that can give you that type of return will be HIGHLY RISKY. Yes, you can hit it out of the park one year. But the next year it can go to zero. A diversified equity basket can go up and down, but not to zero. It's about risk versus return.

With the college thing… I don’t know how it is in the US and Canada but in a lot of German speaking countries there’s something we call HTL (höhere technische Lehranstalt, basically a vocational school) that people can attend for specialized education in a specific career. It’s an alternate education path that starts from 9th grade. I know a few people that have taken that path and while they aren’t as academic or as broad in their knowledge, they tend to be insanely knowledgeable in their specific field. They also enter the workforce much earlier and earn pretty well. Really wouldn’t recommend it for everyone though, because 15-16 is really young to decide on a career.

Fantastic video and truly insightful content as always! As someone who has transitioned from being an investment advisor to now consulting on insurance for investment managers, I couldn't help but notice a few nuances in the life insurance discussion that might benefit from further exploration. Your deep financial knowledge is evident, and I believe a brief, bird's-eye view discussion could mutually enhance our understanding of this complex topic. I'd love the opportunity to share insights and learn from your perspective as well

The last guy you talk about is a really great pro skater named Mikey Taylor. I remember seeing him start making this kind of content a couple of years ago and initially thinking he'd gone insane, but the more I looked into it I realized he was just passing on sound advice he wished he'd learned when he first started making money as a skater when he was so young. Even if he's mistaken about a few things, it's cool to see him level-headed about his finances when so many young athletes blow all of their earnings before they know how to be responsible with it.

According to all the TikTok react videos I’ve seen on KZfaq, you should never take advice from TikTok about -investing -exercise -nutrition -politics -dating -wellness -martial arts -cooking -pretty much anything 🤔

Really like these videos because you talk about various things which usually gets missing formed quickly, and if I want to dive deeper into some of them, I know I can research a bit more or even watch your videos for it

I met with a financial advisor who worked with Northwestern Mutual Insurance. The main thing they tried selling as an investment account was whole life insurance. It didnt add up so I decided to end her service. Did further research and saw that Whole life insurance is basically a scam for anyone whose note upper class to top 1%. Not sure how people dont see red flags with financial advisors being affiliated with any insurance companies.
