1.) Get a skill 2.) Negotiate a Raise/ See about a promotion (u dont ask u dont get...) 3.)

Spent so much time learning this over the last few months. Understanding the Money Printing process thats gone on over the last few decades has opened my eyes massively.
As a recruiter, I lose a lot of candidates to counter-offers, and it makes me wonder why more people don't utilize this. Just interview for other roles (even if you're satisfied with your current employer) until you're made an offer that's more than your current salary. Use that to leverage a risk-free payrise. The VAST majority of employers will agree to at least match your offer, as it's very expensive to replace you/train your replacement/productivity loss etc.
Most companies spend money on new employees but they never wanna do this for current employees. This is the reason why it is easier to get a 15% raise while changing the company as a 5% raise staying in your company.
The real inflation rate is about 5% per year. You can't save enough to keep pace with inflation, no matter how good a saver you are. Earning money is the only way to survive - that's why so many retirees have to return to work because real inflation is destroying their savings.
Im working a full 40+ hr job then going to school Monday - Thursday. This hustle culture will burn you out and have you yelling at yourself as a bum in the street. Give yourself grace and work smarter. Saving is enough when you invest that extra money into growing your skillset. Become a Plumber on the side, not a social media influencer
I think its still important to budget and understand where your money is going. I’ve seen so many cases of high income earners still be in debt because they didn’t understand how to manage their money even with their higher income
I am an accountant and I wouldn't call accounting a boring job. You actually need to be really good at problem solving, logical thinking and stress management during month end closing periods, also being precise is key. The stress can give you a really nice adrenalin rush to be honest.
I really think opting in to minimalism helps. It really helps crystalize what we value and what we want from life. Starting with a "why" is the only thing that helps me stay the course (my why is my wife and kid, they're worth any little sacrifice I can make)
17:14 As an Australian this is true, however, the wage difference especially after the conversion from pounds to AUD is a massive difference. lots of them do tend to move back to Aus (had some friends in IT) but when I hear stories of the big differences in pay and work culture .. It makes sense.
Really clear great overview, I think it would be really valuable if you could potentially outline or go a bit deeper into "networking". I've realised this is something I haven't put much time and effort into and would love a 101. I've got regular practices and developed mindsets on design and would love the same "routine" but for networking!
Most people cannot increase their salaries. They can add more income sources, but if they are willing to take the burden, then sure. Limit your spending. The first rule of finance is to invest with the money that comes before your spending. Your savings and investment funds shouldn’t be the result of income - expenditure. Instead, it should be income - investment money - savings = expenditure. Just get a smaller house. Forget the dreams of a fancy car. And live a simple life if you don’t wish to take the burden. Increasing your income sources isn’t easy either. It’s doable.
It gets even crazier when instead of saving the $5k each month you invest it. Investing $5000 into S&P500 monthly for 30 years, with the 7% return in your example, will result in $5.5M at the end of the period. That $126 000 will actually be > $396 000. Shows the combination of increasing income and investing early is the key.
Your videos literally pop up at the time I need them! Love this, I am currently at a career shift. I made lyric videos n promo vids for artists all over the world but im bored and the money is mediocre so I am going Full time video editor for RUclips and hopefully big clients
At 60 Years old you’d have around $730,000 by simply putting that money in a 4.25% savings account. So that $360,000 number he gave makes no sense. Obviously you’d be saving money in a SAVINGS ACCOUNT.
The figure of $730,000 that you have arrived at does not take inflation into account. Assuming you are currently 60 years old, 40 years from now, the value of $730,000 will not be equivalent to its current value as you understand it. That is how that number was derived, which makes perfect sense. Hell, it might even be way less than $360,00 if we are talking 30+ years.
Lmao ‘typical Asian stuff’ - felt that to my core! Fantastic video as always. I’ve always been on this opinion and I’m glad it’s starting to take hold. I’ve managed to travel very well in my 20s and buy my own place just from doing two jobs. It’s provided income when I was made redundant one my main one too - such an underrated mindset. Thank you! X
I think it should be made clear that all this is with the assumption you have an emergency savings built up, little to no debt, and fairly stable budget habits. These should take priority over the risk of pursuing a new career path that could net a higher earning.
Personally saving has worked wonders for me helping me pay off my house I don't really care for expensive branded items or seeing the world I would just rather be comfortable and content rather than waste more time trying to earn more while getting taxed more the less you need the less you want
Bro, noob question. Is it smart to buy an 18k gold worth $600-$1000 per year for the next 10 years keeping it then sell it or should I do retail business? I am in the Philippines right now.
hey I have a question, I learned a high income skill. I am very good at graphic design but I don’t know how to put my skill to use. I promote on instagram and get clients here and there but I know for a fact I can be making way more money. I am really good at what I do. where should I start ??
It’s very true that earnings have a lot of impact on savings. I changed my employer and now I earn around 50% more than before, for a very similar job. As a result I am saving 4 times more money each month.
True, but if you strive to earn more money but dont learn to budget and save, then you're just chasing your tail. I'd suggest doing both i.e. earn more, budget, save & invest. They all work hand in hand. I know people who are paid mega bucks but are broke because they're not wise with their money. Just my 2p's worth 😀

Creatives need to spend more time learning accounting principles and not brushing over them.

Any update on how its going for you so far?

earning alot of money a year is not a problem... its keep doing it years for years
Why does it have to be one or the other? Why shouldn’t you save more AND earn more?
i love your videos man, please keep releasing videos for ever!
Lmao ‘typical Asian stuff’ - felt that to my core!

You can’t save yourself to wealth
Gotta earn it
Bro, noob question. Is it smart to buy an 18k gold worth $600-$1000 per year for the next 10 years keeping it then sell it or should I do retail business? I am in the Philippines right now.
building your body is good advice.
hey I have a question, I learned a high income skill. I am very good at graphic design but I don’t know how to put my skill to use. I promote on instagram and get clients here and there but I know for a fact I can be making way more money. I am really good at what I do. where should I start ??
You can only save so much
Your stuffs great Oli, love your work brother.

It’s very true that earnings have a lot of impact on savings. I changed my employer and now I earn around 50% more than before, for a very similar job. As a result I am saving 4 times more money each month.

Hello friend. Greetings from the USA. Good content. 🇺🇸
$1500 to rent a bedroom, job sucks, people bad aura, life is tough.
Move abroad.
Come here in Dubai! :)
Oliur, I want to earn more. Do you think freelance landing page design is something worth pursuing? (Im a UI designer trying to get to $5-10K/mo)
No way make more money to save more

If you want to earn more - you have to work longer, harder == not enjoying your life at all
