Thanks for sharing awesome tips! I'm financially free and currently growing a solid retirement plan. It takes a positive and consistency to learn new things, unlearn the old habits ms Important to get a mentor/coach to lead you all the way. It's great to start young too!
@@eiraantoinette6793 personally I think 1m is the goal to overcome inflation and having them in an investment portfolio is a perfect plan. I'm half way to my goal 😊
@@gracedaniels6172 yeah. Fees and commissions are factors to look at in search for financial advisers. There’s financial experts out there who do not look at their fees but the impact and intrinsic value they bring along to you no matter how little you want to start.

Great video Ma’am. Is there a discount CODE for your 94 lesson RUclips course? Is there a sample video that gives prospects an idea of what the course contact will look like and sound like?
In the RUclips course with 94 lessons, will there be any opportunity to ask questions and get feedback, for hard-working students who watch all the videos and do all the homework. One would hate to make that significant financial sacrifice and feel all alone with a lot of new information. Thank you.
I also used my subway paycheck to pay for coach pursues at 19 years old. It’s so comforting to learn that we followed similar paths 💛 thanks for the video!
Legal! Thank you for the video Erika! I think keeping up with the joneses is the worst mistake because people think their peers look down on them for not having x,y,z thing when they really don’t. Instead of bettering yourself, you’re bettering people’s short term opinion of you. Another thing that helps for me when there are market downturns, I look at the percentage instead of the dollar amount since the percentage is probably going to be a much nicer number.
Dollar value, does not matter, what matters are your percentage returns. Example, you have $1,000 and you buy a small percentage of Bitcoin at $60,000. You hold until the price rises to $75,000 and you sell. You just made a return of 25%
I have several friends who are multi-millionaires. Some have multiple expensive cars and homes while others appear poor and are show worth of only what they have on them (everything else is sheltered). Your teaching us the things they never teach you in school. We all know why. I am trying to walk the line between living life (since it is not a trial run) and having a safe retirement income. Every time I feel I made progress, inflation movies my goal post further from me.
I’m SO glad that I found your channel! I like the idea of making sure I hit a certain savings percentage. This honestly just makes so much sense. Normally I’d just be super idealistic and end up saving much less than I had if I just planned to save 20%.
Hi Erika. You are an inspiration and I love all your videos. Yes please on a video specifically on investing on SoFi. Sending a Thank you coming from Sacramento, California
Cmon Legal! I must be really doing well in my financial journey b.c I’ve just found your channel this weekend and ba da ba ba ba.. Im loving it! Also tips for investing pls
In the last couple of days I have paid off 4 credit cards ($3,600), 1 personal loan ($2,500) and the IRS($1,200)! Feels so much better than holding the cash. I can attest to the 6 figure earners still living paycheck to paycheck, working on living within my means.
This is really good stuff, Erika. I wish I had known these things when I was your age. Especially the investment piece. I'm in my 50s and still have to convince myself that I'm "grown up enough" to invest.
Awesome video Erika. I was in 9k credit debt about 2 years ago. My credit score was 540. Now I have no debt my credit score is 720. I have savings actually two savings account. I have a retirement within my company since 2007 plus my company has stock ownership within for us who work there. We actually own part of the company. I have about 60k in stock. Over 60k in retirement. I know I meed more to accomplish. However I have come along way. And in the best place i have ever been in. Being debt free feels amazing
Legal ! Thanks for these awesome videos, I just turned 24 and I’m glad I found you! I grew up poor and now I go to Juilliard and my mind has totally shifted in a way I’m sure yours has too! Thanks again, xoxo
My problem has always been setting too many financial goals at once and when I split it I only save minimal on each saving goal :/ How many goals should we set at a time? Wedding, house, travel vacations, hard to do all at once but I also don’t want to delay travel vacations as I save.
Hi Erika. I must say that I like your video. What you make is good sense. I come from a family that buys more of their wants and not their needs. I've learned in the past to save myself from falling in traps like that. Yes as you know I am a guitar player and I'm not like the typical guitar player that has to have a new guitar every time I turn around. I only have 2 guitars and don't feel I need anymore. But every time around tax season there is always a musician trying to get me to buy more gear. I tell them no . I feel when your on a budget, be thankful with what you have. Don't put yourself in debt to please someone else. Money Does Not Grow On Trees. That is a song I wrote and play it out regularly. Thank you for this video. I miss watching you.
I love these examples where math is done with people having 1k to invest, on top of their expenses, paying debt and saving, average americans have trouble with a $400 emergency.
haha also I want to learn about crypto roth iras/(non roth IRAs - cause I struck lucky with dogecoin/amc so far and will exceed the limit this year for a ROTH--- so i'm thinking to do a backdoor roth, still figuring htat out). Either way, thanks for what you do!! I've been watching Graham Stephan/Meet Kevin/Andrei, etc for a while now... excited to find you! Some ladies in the building :)
Erika, danke for your advices. It is very interesting to see your videos. I was in TD bank und asked about accounts with compound interest. I was told they don't exist anymore. But in these 2022 I will be study all your videos, including those legal strategies about taxation and learn as much as possible. Glueckliches Neues Jahr !!!
Legal!!!! Is the video out or in the process of being made? Lol I just came across your channel today and I've already watched at least 15videos, I love your content. You're definitely helping people instead of the "no face big companies" as your other videos stated💯
I only buy used cars and keep them in good shape by myself for years. New cars are the worst money decisions. I put little bits of money into investment accounts. People scoff saying the amounts are so small but not realize they all add up over time if you just keep doing it.
hello erika i changed my bad habit going vacation twice a year in the philippine..so i decided to invest half of my paycheck to stock market, instead ,is that bad/?
legal. Hi Erika, I own an LLC and I have never understand how my income taxes are and how it applies with my LLC incomes. just too much documents. but I ask my CPA for details of those numbers he/she put in the paper. I dont understand their tax language. I feel like he does not want to explain so much. Can you do a video about LLC and income taxes please?
Yes, yes, yes...so on point with this topic. I've been guilty of some of these habits. Great job on the video visuals, love the background views too! Thank you for bringing this topic to us Erika. So important to be reminded of financial "no's", thanks for watching out for us. Have a great day!
Erika, another great video. Like how open and honest you are. . . Love the funny ending "Hitting the LIKE button would be super appreciated for the RUclips algorithm" 🤣... Made me chuckle.
I adore you! (Trying to say that in a way that's not weird is harder than we think - haha!) I've never wanted to follow trends, the Joneses, etc...and yes, society can be harsh. But, we mustn't compare ourselves to others. FOCUS on our own well-being, goals and joys (and for our family). Thank you for saying that...it'd be great for more people to think positively. 😀 Aloha! 🌺
Hey, to be clear. There are good people with nice houses and luxury stuffs. Hanging around them can be a good thing to learn about their mindset. Usually they are business owners, success professionals entrepreneur. Better than friends with poor mind that keep checking for cheap stuffs, wasting time with to return stuffs. Opposite with bad rich people that show off expensive stuffs, those people show off how they steal the deals with incredible price. And if you buy stuffs with higher price than them. You lost. Get away from those "money saving" people too.
I can soooo relate to having expensive purses. I used to carry a $150 purses in high school when I was working part-time making only $8/hr. I’m so done with all that! Love your contents!!! Keep it up.
It's really hard to save anything right now because I'm behind on everything except credit card which I don't use "yea", I'm behind on rent and a couple of bills because I was sick but I did beat Covid-19, so right now I'm playing catch up, but so you know your the best keep up the good work and videos.
Just paid off 110k student loan debt in just under 4 years! Now I need to celebrate!!! Might go crazy for a little
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! That's amazing Tara!!!
That’s really awesome!! Congratulations!
That's great. Congratulations!
Dang! Congrats!!!!

Thank you.
My student loan debt seems unbearable and they don’t try to work with you on a monthly payment you can afford. Definitely need to work on a plan
I need financial and estate advice for us handling an elderly parent
LEGAL yes more please! Thank You for my reality check!
I am BINGE-WATCHING these videos.
ALL of the information is important, and the presentation is common-sensical.
I love the "Power of Compound Interest" chart at 8:00. Such an eye opener!
Legal! I would love to learn about legally avoiding taxes! Thank you for all you do Erika!
And still lifestyle inflation is the biggest enemy,at my opinion.
Great content as always Erika!
I just found you and I love this. Thank you for being a great influence in the internet world.
This is hands-down my favorite video of yours. You really spell it out. Thank you so much for making this video! I love your channel.

Exactly!! It just takes planning. Even starting at 5% and moving your way up is awesome!
For sure, this is a great point! Starting small and manageable before moving up is great, and automating those savings percentages also really helps!
Yes thank you Erika. A video about legally avoiding taxes would be greatly appreciated!

I'm 40 years old and barely learning all these things. It's so sad to think of all the time I've wasted and money I've blown.
