      Dave frequently seems more interested in hearing the sound of his own voice then actually addressing the specific question asked or picking up additional information from explanations given. These folks are in their sixties and he is telling them to continue putting extra money towards the house payment so they can get that paid off. The caller said they put an extra $200 a week towards their mortgage, that is an additional $800 a month that should be going into the 401k. I also think it's odd that Dave never asked them how much they had in their retirement accounts, the caller just said it was nothing to brag about. Does that mean $50,000? Does it mean $500,000?

  • @BRunk84

    15% is NOT enough Dave. I love your stuff generally but it isn't a one size fits all. This guy should be saving 30-40% of his income for retirement at this point. I really wish that he would change his view on this.

      He did say that! I heard. Put 15% into retirement; and pay off mgt. Then built up that nest egg even more - ie more than 15% Caller said he had no debt. Dave said:
      baby step 4 15% retirement
      baby step 6 pay off mgt
      baby step 7 build up nest egg - max out IRA & 401k
      you have 5-10 years. Caller never said his income or what he does.

    • @RustySpike007
      @RustySpike007 2 года назад +5

      I agree. Doing a 30 year re-fi at 60 means they'll die with a mortgage. Pump up that 401k because they're going to need cash to live not equity in a home. Their investment returns will blow away the interest rate they're paying. If they want to do both they need to downsize their home to get rid of the mortgage. It sucks but that's what happens when you wait 40 years to plan.

      @@ponolovefarms3926 My point is that I've noticed many people from the previous generation tend to view having a paid off house as the "key" to financial success. Look at the caller - he has nothing saved for retirement and barely even talked about investments. His whole view of investments and retirement is through his house, and now he's 60 and playing massive catch up to even have a chance to retire with some dignity. The fact is that the earlier you start investing in the stock market, the longer your money has time to compound and grow. $1 invested at age 20 will become over $88 by age 65. If you wait until age 30, that $1 will only become $23. If you wait until age 40, that $1 will only become $7. It's great that you paid off your house in your late 40s, but I hope you understand the opportunity cost of having done so

      To give you a response that's not a scam, it's generally not advised to hold specific, single stocks as a regular investor for the exact reason you mentioned. Your money should be in either mutual funds (If you follow Dave) or index funds (If you follow most other advisors) which will work overall with the market. My personal favorite is a target date retirement fund which is specifically meant for the year you want to retire- that way you don't have to think about it anymore.

I easily could’ve retired years earlier, but wanted to build a bigger inheritance for our kids. All of those things were important to me, so I chose to major in business administration and go into the business world. Too many people will just choose a career because they find it interesting without even bothering to research how much it pays and what benefits come with that career and if it will allow them to provide for their families. Any decent husband would give his wife the option to not work and take her out for a nice dinner at least once a week.

    "That's never going to happen." Huh, I know a couple people who had no mortgage who acquired them again at around 2% - 2.25%, just to invest. They are both multi-multi-millionaires. Smart rich people know how to use money to their advantage.

    Sell house, pay cash for a smaller home, you are older and don’t NEED a large home, may want but if it’s just them two.. I’d say go smaller 85-120k left? 19,500 a year in 401k or 403b, 6 k into Roth IRA. Be frugal with the rest. Plus whatever else you may have you can draw. Depending where they live should be good. Technically we could live in 2k a month when house is paid and still have spending money.

Went through the great recession in 2008-2009 and saw my 401k lose half of its value. Didnt freak out since I knew it was money for my retirement and just kept investing into my company's 401k. Right now I have 6x my annual income saved and on the road to becoming a millionaire in about 10 years.

    This was such a weird call. They just refinanced. If they wanted to take equity out of the house, why didn't they cash out then? Also why are they paying $200 extra a week into their mortgage if they want to "tap into" their equity? I'm not saying they should but it just comes off as clueless to say on one hand how responsible they are for paying $800 extra on a mortgage then on the other hand say they want to tap into their $235K equity. If you need the money to invest, then don't apply it to the loan.

    Dave never wants to talk about social security payments because he hates the government. But it IS a source of fixed income and it's highly unlikely that congress will ever be able to kill SSA. When I was in my fifties I decided owning my house was the most important thing to put my money in. Worst case, I can survive on very little for food, utilities, etc. So now I'm 69, car and house paid for, emergency fund for 12 months, and living off of social security and a small side gig. I've never been a big spender or materialistic and don't have kids draining my pocketbook for birthdays and holidays :) I'm quite content living on about $20K per year. It's all about the house baby!

    I just had a theory. The boomers have historically been terrible savers because social security looked solvent for many years and post Vietnam, we really never got bogged down in a war. The younger generations have grown up through the dot com recession, 9/11, iraq war, 08 financial and housing crisis, the Obama years, the robbery of social security and now covid socialism.
    There has been little to cheer about for us which is why many of us are not only savers, but heavy investors
