There's the relationship with ourselves and another with our money. Finding a partner that matches can be difficult or even impossible, if no one is willing to compromise for the others benefit.
“Here's how I think of my money - as soldiers - I send them out to war everyday. I want them to take prisoners and come home, so there's more of them. - Kevin O’Leary
Cars are the worst for most people, boats for those with a little more disposable income. Both are money pits that can prevent you from having the cash you need to invest. I've seen expensive car payments even prevent people from buying homes when a great opportunity came along that they never saw coming. They'd given up on owning a home, so instead were a family of 5 living in a 1 Bedroom rental but driving a monster truck with a $700 monthly car payment. Then they had the chance to get into a 3BR 2Ba house on half an acre of land in Maui with no money down and monthly payments of only $250-$600 as part of a land trust, but couldn't qualify for even that little by federal guidelines, due to the car payment. I did that project, and I went through hundreds of families with stories like the above to come away with just 20 families I could put into those houses. You build your life around plan B, you no longer have the option of taking plan A when it comes around.
Il give my money trap experience. I bought a new(ish) car... rather tgan taking car finance at 7.5% interest i paid via a loan at 3%. Sounds smart... till i sold it less than 1 year later. Money pits the lot of them. Im still paying over £5,000 left of the loan for the car i dont have!
I am the worst kind. Deep in debt. "Mrs Rogers" debt. No money. No social life. No property. No car. No backup. Leeches everywhere sucking the life and money out of my bleeding bones and money. I am rock bottom. Tired. And now I hear our government wants to bail out a company with their employees pension. I need to run or I will die. Your light seems the only way out of this long dark hole. Thank you for sharing this knowledge.
Money Traps Notes 1. Taxes 2. Lack of planning (budget) 3. Lack of intentionality (long term view) 4. Having an expensive social life (social pressure) 5. Not growing your income (reinvest) 6. Expensive significant other 7. Expensive cars 8. Hoarding too much $$$$
About cars: I went from owning near brand new BMWs to now buying $2500 cars with high mileage - just to drive around in Montenegro that's fine! but would never buy an expensive car again unless i'm making a million bucks a year like he mentioned here... I guess we've all been there at least once, buying that nice car... some people never grow out of it and will keep putting their money into these depreciating boxes on wheels, but i've now come to realization that buying the cheapest decent car is well enough, especially for living in the Balkans where I live now. Unfortunately, whenever I go back to western Europe i'm always tempted to buy a new Audi or BMW because of all the brand new cars on credit that I see everywhere.... very happy I don't live there anymore - rather be buying and flipping cheap land somewhere.
Taxation is theft on a good day. Let alone when your nation passed the insolvency line years ago. We're throwing money year after year into a black hole while politicians net worth grows and grows despite their little salaries.
Education on a mass scale needs to happen asap. The Great Depression of the 2020's will be blamed on the bad things that "caused" it to happen. Nations populations will be forced into borrowing money to pay for all the good ideas that have to be paid for today to start building what will make for a brighter future. Rob the future blind to start building it today. The market knows what to build and where, where capital is treated best.
I get what he’s saying about cars. Two things though. 1. Obviously cars aren’t his “thing,” and being such I would agree. You shouldn’t put a bunch of money into something simply because of social pressure. 2. But here’s the larger point. If cars are your thing then by all means go for it. Obviously you still have to live within your means. Don’t go an buy a Bugatti if your net worth is a couple million bucks. I have to say that cars are my single largest motivator for accumulating wealth. Without that to motivate me I wouldn’t be inclined to work nearly as hard. I like classic cars. Always have and always will. Getting a new suit doesn’t motivate me. Neither does travel or any number of other things that people like. Yes sure I like nice suits and I enjoy travel, but I don’t day dream of them. I’d rather think about that classic 911 or eventually owning and tracking an F40. So people should allocate some funds towards what motivated them to make the wealth in the first place and not feel guilty about it. You’ll come out ahead in the end, because your working towards your passion rather than a number on a balance sheet.
For a time, but you can have them working on a family business from a very young age, like 6, for free labor, like if you have a successful strawberry farm. Or you can, like Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, have them learn computer science and be working in the industry or selling their own apps starting around age 12. Kids are naturally very innovative and curious learners.
Wow this was a deep video. You touched on so much topics that are true that it is almost scary. Unfortunately everything u mentioned it correct when it comes to people trying to do things without looking at the big picture. Thanks again for an awesome video. Have a good night.
Spot on about expensive significant others. Marriage is a wealth inhibitor. As is divorce. You say Go Where You are Treated Best but what about marriage and divorce laws? Where are you treated best in terms of alimony and child support or keeping assets in your own name or not having to consult with your wife before making financial decisions like getting a loan for business purposes? Do you think you could do a video about best places to get married or divorced or co-habitate if asset preservation is a worry?
Great topic 👏🏼👏🏼 cant agree more. The book is absolutely great and Eastern Europe is great place for entrepreneurs with Nomad lifestyle approach Love your content ❤️
Problem with wives, even if they weren't so terribly expensive to begin with, if you go your separate ways, odds are it's going to cost you dearly unless you've been careful enough not to even let her know what all of your assets are and if you kept most assets outside the country.
I tried a couple of years ago to relocate but I was faced later at two factors, back home my old friends took distance with me since they went further with their own life and I wasn't with them to witness it, and I couldn't make genuine friends where I went
I live in Malaysia as well... great place with low cost of living... don't have a car.... lots of great points... I think I need to work on being more intentional and maybe one other.
Lol to the hardcore religious folks out there, but being a devotee of your “significant deity”, if it requires a lot of sacrifices from you, that also counted. The South Indian family in East cost of North America is a typical example to convey this point.
It would be nice to hear what you think about the quality of healthcare in some of these countries. As people get older and retire, living near a good hospital is important. I can tell you that there are some countries where a blood transfusion would be very sketchy.
My money trap was to save but never quite enough to meet unexpected expenses. However, I did get very good at being frugal and making ends meet, whatever the circumstances.
Education in USA is a money trap. Always find cheapest options for your study. The best things in life are free, but in states even high cost courses could be crappy. Also services, when you hire people see not to hire them for free because that breaks the organic eco system built over centuries and results in Boeing crashes.
I fall down on the last one , I'm a self employed carpenter and i only make so much but I've managed to save a bit of cash in the bank but i don't really know how to put it to work . I'm 59 yeats old.
Great Video Andrew. appreciate your efforts to educate the public. One of the reasons I like your "show" is because it rwminds ne if a book I bought years ago which might be a little outdated now but might be right up your alley. So to speak. Its written by a former IRS agent. Called: FORBIDEN KNOWLEDGE. subtittled:" IFORMATION THEY DONT WANT YOU TO KNOW"..... Have you read it Andrew? I highly recimmend it. Aporox $50 on ebay and is a good thick approx 300-400 pages. Covers global offshore topics and how to do evetything your talking about. However i assume ur book is more uptodate, however i would stilk keep the other book for general reading. What u think?
I purchased land in a beautiful gated community in Ecuador. I love Ecuador , my wife does not. So we never built a house and now it’s very difficult to sell. Costs me 250$ a year. Peanuts.. but still a money trap. Make sure you’re sure about the place before you buy . Spend some time there first.
Drove an Uber for a little bit, one weekend I picked up a young guy from some bar busy bar area, he was the paying customer, and he’s like go go go, I hear girl screaming, so I stop, guy is like go go go, I drive away and ask him what’s the deal, he says that’s girlfriend he met over a year ago after graduating college and right after moving to Chicago, that she’s a controlling...... that controls his life, makes him go out couple times a week, often to fancy and expensive places, he’s broke, in debt because of her and that he doesn’t have the backbone to break up with her, so he mustered enough courage to use me to break up with her by leaving her and her friends on the curb that night
Andrew, I gotta say you and I are political opposites, only in that we both see a different aspect of the same problems. But I'll be damned if I don't consider you one of the greatest life coaches I've ever heard. Take this video, for instance. You are giving sound, practical advice, with the added bonus of your personal experience and reasoned arguments. For free! I've seen more than a few products miss the mark and for mo' money. Thanks.
I always thought buying cars is such a poor way to manage your money. Be like Netherlands, walk and use a bicycle ans public transport. Good for your pocket, good for the environment
@@TheUrryx Why do you think the climate has gone to such a disastrous stage? If you can't do it without a car, get an electric one. Be more eco-friendly
@@jayw115 And where do you think the electricity for the electric car comes from? Not to mention the extreme environmental damage from mining for the electric car components and the fuel to run the machinery to extract those components. You are under an illusion to think that electric cars make a difference, it is just a marketing ploy by the elite to force you to buy a new car and to keep the industrial machine alive, otherwise people would just keep fixing their old cars and stop buying new ones. They don't want you to do that, so they start a brainwashing campaign to make you think that you are saving the environment, when they are in fact destroying it more with lithium mining and so forth.
Real estate is a burden. Expenses on maintenance, taxes, capital gains when you sell. The best investment is stocks. Easy to move around. Liquid and makes the best returns.
Andrew thank you for all your great videos Can you make a video about safety from politics in fireign countries? Crazy sharia laws or hina witha very dishonestt justice system, etc. How do you deal with that? Or if you already made a video on this topic can you share the link?
My next goal after 100k a year is not necessarily more money but How to make the same amount with less effort. So I can enjoy doing other things I like more and more!
No. 6 'An Expensive Significant Other' - I got a buddy who's wife was recently indicted on criminal charges. Apparently she had been trading sex for a house, basic living expenses & vacations over the course of their 20 year marriage. If convicted she'll likely face 3-5 years in the workforce.
If you're an employee living in the US or Europe, working a 9 to 5 job... you'll always have to be paying taxes in-country. It's inevitable, unless it's freelance work maybe, and that would be illegal not to pay taxes while performing services or selling goods in-country. They'd have to change careers, for sure.
About the hoarding cash while holding crypto conundrum, are stable coins still considered cash in the context above? I don't mind the 8%APY but only because I understand the risk.
Traditions are money traps, I'm not saying to not enjoy the traditions such as valentines day, weddings, bachelor parties, Christmas, birthdays, or any other culturally sanctioned, socially imposed event... but these traditions have become massive peacock events. I have seen many of my friends subconsciously compete, to the point that a couple I know got married, it was really expensive and flashy, they each had bachelor parties on the other side of the world, and it was all done on credit cards and high interest loans. That wouldn't be too much of a problem, only they both earned below £25 K a year, I am certain their wedding all told cost much more than their combined annual salary it was insanity. One of my wealthiest friends got married recently, it was a small, personal event, no horse and carriage, no £20 K wedding dress, no crazy stag-do... just friends and family celebrating their marriage, it was almost the perfect way to win a game of peacock, to say he didn't need those flashy things. That is why he is wealthy, in more than just money.
Yeah I'm a hoarder but I do understand that having all your money in cash is dangerous so I'm investing in becoming totally self sufficient (energy and food) and paying nothing in taxes.
I personally went to Dubia twice. The first time stayed in a 3-star hotel, the second time, 5-star hotel. We were out and about, eating in restaurants, etc. Born and raised in CA. Dubai is a shit hole. Period. Disgusting.
How can you avoid high taxes by going offshore? (Your number 1 point) if you are US citizen you need to pay tax on global income even if you are non resident citizen. How can you avoid paying taxes on your global income by going offshore?
Any Canadian here? Are you willing to leave Canada and save your taxes at the cost of leaving health-care, free education, safety, natural beauty, etc. ??
@@anmolrajpalofficial The Conservatives got more votes, but unfortunately the Liberals got more seats, meaning more cabinet ministers in charge of ridings. It's the way the electoral system works, which is different from the United States.
Andrew can one invest money in another country without living in that country, having a passport for that country etc? I'm currently living in the US, interest rates are extremely low so I haven't invested what I would like to :(
So typical of our ridiculous world that this video has 19k views, yet Tai Lopez and his motivational video friends have millions and millions of views. The knowledge is always right there, but whether you can see past the sand kicked up around you is a different story...
Great advice glad to hear crypto in the narrative an important new asset class that is gaining traction but not reflected in a price increase yet but it is imminent
The one thing I don't like about Malaysia is the Mosque singing, especially when it wakes me up at 6am and there isn't a coffee shop open or anywhere else to go after it wakes me up, most places don't open until 9am . The signing is terrible and sounds like a human making the sound of an animal getting slaughtered or on its way to being slaughtered.
if you are an American working in another country don't you still have to pay income tax in America? For example if my RUclips channel became successful and I was living aboard a boat sailing the world wont I still owe Fed taxes?

Better avoid it completely.

I'm good on all but the last one. I just don't keep enough cash on hand. I've missed many opportunities because of this.
Having children a total money sink.
Making children is OK, but the rest... 😁
For a time, but you can have them working on a family business from a very young age, like 6, for free labor, like if you have a successful strawberry farm.

I purchased land in a beautiful gated community in Ecuador. I love Ecuador , my wife does not. So we never built a house and now it’s very difficult to sell. Costs me 250$ a year. Peanuts.. but still a money trap. Make sure you’re sure about the place before you buy . Spend some time there first.

It's inevitable, unless it's freelance work maybe, and that would be illegal not to pay taxes while performing services or selling goods in-country. They'd have to change careers, for sure.
You can always change where you live.
how do you have a social fabric when you have an international life?
Be an extrovert and waste your money,
or be an introvert and enjoy every minute you're alone and free.
I don't care Andrew, I'm never going to give up my boat, it's my sanity!!!! And freedom!!!
About the hoarding cash while holding crypto conundrum, are stable coins still considered cash in the context above? I don't mind the 8%APY but only because I understand the risk.
Traditions are money traps, I'm not saying to not enjoy the traditions such as valentines day, weddings, bachelor parties, Christmas, birthdays, or any other culturally sanctioned, socially imposed event... but these traditions have become massive peacock events. I have seen many of my friends subconsciously compete, to the point that a couple I know got married, it was really expensive and flashy, they each had bachelor parties on the other side of the world, and it was all done on credit cards and high interest loans. That wouldn't be too much of a problem, only they both earned below £25 K a year, I am certain their wedding all told cost much more than their combined annual salary it was insanity.
One of my wealthiest friends got married recently, it was a small, personal event, no horse and carriage, no £20 K wedding dress, no crazy stag-do... just friends and family celebrating their marriage, it was almost the perfect way to win a game of peacock, to say he didn't need those flashy things. That is why he is wealthy, in more than just money.
Yeah I'm a hoarder but I do understand that having all your money in cash is dangerous so I'm investing in becoming totally self sufficient (energy and food) and paying nothing in taxes.
I personally went to Dubia twice. The first time stayed in a 3-star hotel, the second time, 5-star hotel. We were out and about, eating in restaurants, etc. Born and raised in CA. Dubai is a shit hole. Period. Disgusting.
Lending money to friends and relatives....sure receipe for disaster...my experience
How can you avoid high taxes by going offshore? (Your number 1 point) if you are US citizen you need to pay tax on global income even if you are non resident citizen. How can you avoid paying taxes on your global income by going offshore?
you need to get rid of your US passport and become a citizen of some other country. in the US you are only a bloodbag for Pelosi and the gang.
What about how easy it is to get your money out of a country? Thailand is very strict in wiring USD out of country...
I’m from Argentina... you pay less taxes than me anywhere you are 🤣 (except Venezuela or some other hiper inflation country)
Once you made money in Cambodia, are you able to wire it out to somewhere else?
Number 5 got my attention.
Any Canadian here? Are you willing to leave Canada and save your taxes at the cost of leaving health-care, free education, safety, natural beauty, etc. ??
Trudeau government is turning Canada into hell. We need to vote him out.
@@SharonPiano8 then why do he keep winning?
@@anmolrajpalofficial The Conservatives got more votes, but unfortunately the Liberals got more seats, meaning more cabinet ministers in charge of ridings. It's the way the electoral system works, which is different from the United States.
Being forced to bail out your spouse's bills with the money you saved up for something specific because if you don't, you have to borrow the money.
I agree with being careful with spending, but…ya gotta have some toys. For me it’s jet skis and guns.
Can you give more details about buying real estate in Cambodia please?
Andrew can one invest money in another country without living in that country, having a passport for that country etc? I'm currently living in the US, interest rates are extremely low so I haven't invested what I would like to :(
So typical of our ridiculous world that this video has 19k views, yet Tai Lopez and his motivational video friends have millions and millions of views. The knowledge is always right there, but whether you can see past the sand kicked up around you is a different story...
underrated comment right here
AWESOME**********
Great advice glad to hear crypto in the narrative an important new asset class that is gaining traction but not reflected in a price increase yet but it is imminent
I wrestle with Sports car addiction daily.
The one thing I don't like about Malaysia is the Mosque singing, especially when it wakes me up at 6am and there isn't a coffee shop open or anywhere else to go after it wakes me up, most places don't open until 9am . The signing is terrible and sounds like a human making the sound of an animal getting slaughtered or on its way to being slaughtered.
Food is a money trap - people eat too much!

I wouldn't call crypto a hard asset. But excellent video and I'm guilty of some of these !
if you are an American working in another country don't you still have to pay income tax in America? For example if my RUclips channel became successful and I was living aboard a boat sailing the world wont I still owe Fed taxes?
If it floats flies or f..... well you guys know the saying
