More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.
The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.
This is why I've entrusted a fiduciary with my investment decisions. Many underestimate advisors until emotions lead to losses. My advisor crafted a tailored strategy aligning with my long-term goals, guiding entry and exit points for the equities I focus on. This has grown my portfolio to $780k, generating sufficient dividends for my household's needs.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Melissa Terri Swayne” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.
This is true. I'm in my mid 50's now. My wife and I were following this same trajectory. Last two years, I pulled out my money and invested with her wealth manager. Not catching up with her profits over the years, but at least I earn more. I'm making money even before retiring, and my retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.
It's true, not everyone has access to this kind of information. Lack of knowledge can definitely make people panic. it's amazing that i’ve been able to make over $687k passively through investing with an advisor! Having a great wealth manager can really make a difference, regardless of how the economy is doing. Keep up the good work!
At a point like this, when the pressure is already on you to retire, its best recommended you seek the services of an adviser, as this allows you make smarter investing decisions.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘Grace Adams Cook’ for about two years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thank you. Just what I needed to watch. My wife and I are directors of our own business and own a few property, plus other income . I am nearly 52, We have started to save to retire perfectly, and possibly live on rental income, I'd really appreciate you go LIVE and talk about how to earn passive income online and retire comfortably
Maybe you should consider financial planning, It really isn’t about how much you save, it’s about how you manage your money. Whether you work to earn income or invest, it still boils down to income vs expenses
I completely agree. As I age and approach retirement, I have approximately $1,250,000 in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, having a portfolio-advisor for investing is genius!
I started out with a Financial Adviser called “Sonya Lee Mitchell”. Her honest approach gives me complete ownership and control of my position, and her rates are incredibly affordable given my ROI. However, do your due diligence before contacting a financial advisor.
The continuously changing economic conditions in our society have made it necessary for people to find additional sources of income, thus I am looking at the stock market to fuel my retirement goal of $3m
Agreed, despite my rookie knowledge of investing, I have a financial advisor who did the trick in a bit more than 6 months after a lump sum capital of $500k, and I've so far made a fortune. I'm now buying real estates, gold and silver as advised by my FA.
My original retirement plan was to retire at 62, work part-time, and save money. However, high prices for everything have severely affected my plan. I'm concerned if people who went through the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am having now. The stock market is worrying me as my income has decreased, and I fear I won't have enough savings for retirement since I can't contribute as much as before.
I’m 77 and still working full time. I do enjoy my work, it provides me with purpose and has secured my financial future. Most people are too eager to retire as early as possible. Even if you do retire early, best to get a part time job for the reasons cited above, as well as following many if not all of the suggestions in this video.
Accurate asset allocation is crucial. Some use hedging or defensive assets in their portfolio for market downturns. Seeking financial advice is vital. This approach has kept me financially secure for over five years, with a return on investment of nearly $1 million.
'Rebecca Nassar Dunne’, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
When I was 60 I began to notice things becoming harder at work, at the age of 62 I found it really difficult to get out of bed every morning to go to work, and once there my body was struggling to cope with everyday manual tasks! How this Government can expect people to work into their 70s is beyond me!!
Newsflash: when they set social security up,in 1935,they expected most people to be dead by 62. It was never supposed to support the majority of Americans into their 80's.
I was tired getting out of bed at 20 & made a commitment to retire by age 45 latest….It’s called failing to plan is planning to fail and taking action not thinking about it.
I just started a new job and I am 53 its a low level paying job! And I work at a nursing home! I am telling everyone please take care of your health and eat clean and exercise! I saw these people in their 60s and 70s and I was so heart broken! Ya May think it’s all about money but really it’s your health
Surely you mean you don't have "enough" to retire> I'm assuming you have some savings. I was in this same position four years ago and it was depressing. I had only 80k to my name and I was 61. It was a hard time for me. My wife and I made the hard choice and sold our house in Florida to move to Texas. I invested some of the money from the sale in the stock market. The portfolio is up 300k this year alone.
I am currently in my 50s and This is no time to taper retirement savings. I want to max out my retirement contributions and I also have another $200k in a savings account that i want to invest in a non-retirement account. Where should I invest it now?
Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
A good number of people discredit the effectiveness of financial advisors in exploring new markets, but over the past 10years I’ve had a financial advisor consistently restructure and diversify my portfolio/expenses and I’ve made over $1.2m in gains… might not be a lot but i'm financially secure.
My CFA ’Izella Annette Anderson’ , a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
Keep going bro. I'm 32 and I my Roth IRA is at $76,500 (plus I have contributed $67k to my pension), I have $30k in an emergency fund, $10k in my checking. My only debt is my home, and I should be able to pay it off once I'm 40 (at least I'm trying to, paying $600 over minimum currently). Imagine what I can do with a paid off home. Retire in my 40's if I wanted to.
That's not new. Everyone should expect to get wrong advice sometimes. My family thought I was trying to hard to save at 27. 20 years later, it was a different outlook from everyone.
I'm a 52-year-old QA Specialist at Confluera, earning $150,000 annually. While I have a retirement account, I'm eager to explore short-term investment opportunities before transitioning to part-time work in the coming years.
It's crucial to have a well-thought-out strategy and not make impulsive moves based on short-term market fluctuations. Patience and a long-term perspective are key. You should consider a market expert to guide you.
A financial advisor could really help you re-adjust and identify blindspots that you yourself do not notice, like mine did in advising me during COVID on how the pandemic will shape things, and I made it out big and still make up to at least 20k in dividend per month.
No. 1 piece of advice for him would be to NOT pursue women or remarry in today's social climate. Put that all behind him. If his divorce didn't wake him up, nothing will.
I agree but some careers are not as easy as you get older. I'm a lawyer and manager so I can work until my brain gives out which, if my parents are any guide, won't be until I die in my 90s. Someone who is in a physically demanding career can't continue past certain thresholds. There are not a lot of full-time, 80 year old HVAC techs, general carpenters, roofers, laborers, firefighters, etc, running around. They can't crawl in attics lugging 70 pounds in Atlanta in the summer anymore.
I’m 60, I’m tired. Single. But there will be no retirement anytime soon. Not many can afford insurance at 62 even if you can live on SS and whatever else one may have. The economy has determined many will work until they are no longer able.
I see people are missing OP’s point. Basically what they’re saying is a lot of of people will call Dave in this same situation, and not want to accept the cold hard truth that Dave is known for.
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.
the strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off.
I wholeheartedly concur; I'm 60 years old, just retired, and have about $1,250,000 in non-retirement assets. Compared to the whole value of my portfolio during the last three years, I have no debt and a very little amount of money in retirement accounts. To be completely honest, the information provided by invt-advisors can only be ignored but not neglected. Simply undertake research to choose a trustworthy one.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
I’m 50 retiring next year but the thought of retirement gives me weakness. My apologies to everyone who have retired and filing social security during this time after putting in all those years of work just to lose everything to a problem you never imagined to happen. It’s so difficult for people who are retired and have no savings or loved ones to fall back on.
True, It has never been easier to understand how to build your money after retirement than it is right now with the inflation, when you may study and experience a completely variegated market passively by employing a successful portfolio-advisor. The impacts of the U.S. dollar's gain or fall on investments, in my opinion, are complex.
Thank you for this tip. It was easy to find your coach. Did my due diligence on her before scheduling a phone call with her. She seems proficient considering her resume.
This is why you live like the 1860's. Ensure your house is pretty protected from okwhatever Acts of God transpire in your area. Ours is fire so our home has steel siding like you'd see on a shed or construction building. We have no intention of loosing it. We E-bike most places and I choose not to drive, we only insure him to save $. Honestly I drive but my eyes are getting weak so it's really not a good thing, I do it only on Sunday mornings about 1x a month driving about 3 miles. I am coming to a close but E-biking is more comfortable to me. You live in an area where you are not 100% relying on a power and utility company. We have Solar and the propane company comes sometimes. DIY is the way to go then you are not in as much risk
Meanwhile your working to house illegal migrants in hotels and give them new iPhones , new clothes , free healthcare , free welfare etc , Im in the UK and the native British people here are all stopping going to work why? because we do not take kindly to people who have never paid into the system coming here and poncing off us , So we will do the same as them.
The idea of investing a significant sum of money may be both thrilling and intimidating. There is potential for considerable wealth increase with the correct strategy. How can one take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings to about $1M over time?
I think the safest strategy is to diversify investments. Like spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850
I have a female advisor named Lucia Alicia Cruz. I recommend researching her. To be very honest, I'm glad I decided to let someone handle expanding my finances even though I almost didn't think I should.
Thank you for sharing this. I took the time to Google the individual you mentioned, and after reviewing her resume, it is evident that she is a seasoned professional. I have reached out to her and am eagerly awaiting her response.
Trim Carpenter here too. I appreciate the kind words about our craft. We do always have more work than we can do. I bought “exhausted” houses, fixed them up & now have a small fleet of rentals to go along with my retirement savings. Bingo. Working nights & weekends while my friends were having fun made the difference. Like Dave says: “Living like no one else. So you can live like no one else” None of this is “brain surgery”. A dream/goal without a plan, is just a wish.
As a soon-to-be retiree, keeping my 401k on track after a bumpy 2022 is a high goal. I've read about investors generating up to $250k ROI in this present sinking market; any suggestions for increasing my ROI before retirement would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, you are right. it's been a brisk tailwind for investors in US stocks over the decades but it is still a delicate season now, so I advise you to consider the guidance of a financial advisor.

"I was married to a spender".....then he goes out and spends $20,000 on a motorcycle, complains about not having money, then calls a total stranger and asks for help......sheesh....people are a danger to themselves.
Especially this idiot! Retirement is never a chief concern for financial dilletente who blames divorce for his lifetime of STUPID FINANCIAL SELF-DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR.
True, the difference is he can sell the bike and get most or some of the money back. I somehow get the feeling he lived years not being able to spend something for himself while wife used everything. So I GET that part tho. He still has a way out compared to other worst cases I heard on this show
Luck is way off the picture. Jonas Herman, a licensed fiduciary is the brain behind my success. I've gotten into a plethora of assets with $19k spread across stocks (options and futures) for the short term and Roth IRA, index funds, cryptocurrency and ETFs, for the long term. Now with over 91k in roi, I sit back and just reinvest at intervals while I handle my other businesses.
My mother is in a similar situation; she just turned 60 with nothing saved for retirement. I absolutely hate the situation for her but its been one of my biggest motivations to working through the baby steps and living like no one else now so I can live like no one else later. I understand I'm not obligated to, but I hope in 5-10 years I'll have put myself in a situation where I can help her out.... BS6 currently.
I make more than him flipping things on Facebook Market Place and I'm never tired of 'working'. He should find something easy. I stay awake until 4am, sleep until noon... work a little selling and usually just sit around watching RUclips. . What amazes me is that my family and friends do not want to do what I do. They see it first hand and they are not interested. They would rather have a J.O.B. than what I do
Being from a family that didn’t plan well, I am happy that we started our son saving at 15 with $ he made. $ in each and every month. Not a lot, it adds up and he adds to it and makes GIC purchases. Doing so well being steady at it- 7 years now. Money is a tool- so glad he’s learning this.
Since he's tired of working, he may want to consider training a couple of apprentices to work for him as he gets older and needs to pull back on his physical workload.
@@xsgtxbigboy1655 If you actually planned you would decide that working until 80 is smart. Retirement savings are just like emergency funds and fire evacuation plans - prepare for the worst but hope that you don't need them.
I retired with $600k saved, and looking back, I realize I could’ve done things differently. Not saving enough, plus the impact of inflation and sequence of returns risk, makes me worry about outliving my savings, and it’s not something I can easily ignore. Not saying it’s the only way to go, but it’s something I think about
I'm approaching retirement and having a financial advisor has been helpful. I started investing later than most, so relying on compound interest from index funds or bonds alone wasn’t enough for me. Despite that, I’ve managed to do well and am on track to retire with around $5 million
Yeah, always good to plan for retirement when young. We all think we don’t have to worry about it until later but the fact is, the earlier you learn about financial literacy the better you can plan for it. With amount of savings, you could probably try different side projects to generate some extra income to stash more cash.
Congratulations! Saving and investing $5m by retirement is my financial goal. Since I started young, I have a lot more options to get there. Financial advisor might be something I will look at later in life but mainly to figure out how to pay my fair share of taxes without overpaying. The tax code is written for business owners, the more savvy you are, the more you can save. That’s the part that is more complex to me. Maybe even need an estate lawyer if you are in the millions range already to ensure I am building and passing generational wealth.
Most Americans find it hard to retire comfortably amid economy downtrend. Some have close to nothing going into retirement, my question is, will you pay off mortgage as a near-retiree, or spread money for cashflow, to afford lifestyle after retirement?
Agreed, the role of advisors can only be overlooked, but not denied. I remember in early 2020, during covid-outbreak, my portfolio worth around 300k took a slight fall, apparently due to the pandemic crash, at once I consulted an advisor in order to avoid panic-selling. As of today, my account has yielded big fat yields, and leverages on 7-figure, only cos I delegate my excesses right.
this is huge! mind if I look up the adviser that guides you please? only invest in my 401k through my employer for now, but enthused about diversifying my investments for a prosperous financial future
I've shuffled through a few advisors in the past, but settled with Annette Christine Conte her service is exemplary. I'd suggest you research her further on your browser, sure you'll find her basic info.
very much appreciated, your response suggests a person of benevolence.. just inputted her full name on my browser, and came across her site, top-notch qualifications! she seems well-qualified

@@matthewgardner2144 I started getting serious about 5 years ago, prior to that it was a minimal amount towards retirement each month. Early last year I finally got to the point of maxing my tax advantaged accounts. I figure if I can keep that up and have a 30 year pension at the end I should be just fine.

Sounds like the divorce had nothing to do with it. This guys wife left him 8 years ago, and since then he bought a new house and a new truck and saved $0. I’m sure his ex-wife was a peace of work but it’s time to stop blaming her 8 years later
Do you want him to tell him to quit working, find a carboard box and hope his health holds out? Contrary to my popular belief as a child, money does not in fact, grow on trees.
A potentially better response, would have been to tell him to bring on an apprentice, take on more work while teaching them the trade and then sell the apprentice the business to essentially create a saleable investment when he finally retires.
Yup, but that 10 years is going to make a lot of difference. A good lesson for us all in prioritizing investing for retirement. Even little bits here and there add up over the years. It's a lot harder when you're starting at 58.
The motorcycle was more of a priority than saving a little something for the inevitability of being too old to work...until that mindset is changed a lot of people are doomed.
It’s the age old question whether you should “carpe diem” or “memento mori”… You say carpe diem, but the truth is, people should “plan as if they were going to live 1000 years, but live as if they were going to die tomorrow”. That’s what BALANCED budget is for. PS. I became financially free in my late 30s. I don’t need to work anymore and it feels great. I can also buy more toys now - the best part is: my investments pay for these toys!
The motorcycle is most likely the only thing keeping him wanting to be alive... at a certain point you gotta way the pros and cons.. I would be getting rid of that specific bike, but I would also be buying another used bike in its place
I'm close to that age and don't think I can go through another job search/job start. Just not up to the "paying your dues" that comes with a new job. I'm about worn out.
I just turned 71 and am still working - got a promotion two years ago. My employer has a generous time off policy, and my job allows me to travel around the world. I hope I don't get worn out for a long time.
Right? I'm in my late 30s, and am freaking out about retirement, considering these days, I'm barely able to put in anything additional for savings every month.
I'll take a different approach. Pay off the house yes. Start a Roth IRA or two. Keep your emergency fund. Keep the Harley. It is one of the things that brings him peace. Work more for sure. I believe the Harley is good debt. And tomorrow is not a given you have to live life.
The mutual fund would have to have some serious etfs at least a third value of the fund that pay at least 5percent or more dividend yield, S&P 500 efts such as VOO isn't going to cut it especially 500k worth of it.
I never liked mutual funds. All those different fee's and charges can take a big bite into returns. I'll stick with ETF's and stocks. There are plenty of ETF's that will generate more than 10% net return after the expense ratio is deducted. I've got a couple that are returning more than 15% and pay monthly. $50k a year off of a $500k portfolio is not a problem. Just learn to do it yourself, instead of paying someone thousands to guess for you. That became my job after retirement. Now I only work at it for 4 or 5 hours a week and make more than when I was working.
@@edb484 It is a dangerous assumption to plan for a 10% return YOY. You have to pay taxes, account for inflation, and assume there are down years. There is a reason the 4% rule has been a given forever.
No, $500k will not give you $50k/yr "forever." Using the 4% rule, $500k (invested properly) would provide you $20k/yr (increased for inflation each year after) and have a 95% chance of lasting 30 years.
That is the thing I had to learn many years ago, that I think many don’t understand, especially when they’re young. I had a coworker, who got breast cancer. Like a lot of people, I’d watched too much TV perhaps. Every time someone was sick, they were in a hospital bed. I wasn’t aware, until my coworker’s situation, that she had to continue to work, with cancer. Now that I’m older and have just a knee injury, it hits home for me. And as I have no family, I’m going to have to crawl to work, if I have to. It’s a shame as, WFH is really appropriate to this. But, my work place only offers limited WFH.
this is what is going to happen to many young people, they think they will never retire and work until they die but in reality they will work until they get elderly and illness strikes and they will be too sick to be employed and they will end up on social welfare programs it will be us successful taxpayers that will be paying for them.
@@reesercliff I haven’t seen any better, with people in their 50s and I’m almost 60. While I am unsure of her entire story, I got the impression my downstairs neighbor retired early, with no plans in place, medical or financial. Was quite relaxed about it and said she had “all the time in the world”. I got the impression she figured, being just 6 years older than me, why should she continue working 👉🏽 when I still worked and we really didn’t even know each other. She soon started taking ill and, as her family, who lived nearby, wasn’t going to help her, she “decided” I was it. Not even sure if she decided I was it, when she first moved in. Thing is, the choice didn’t belong to her. I wasn’t going to be her free caregiver. I wasn’t going to be roped in, by caring for a dog she decided to adopt, but couldn’t care for herself. I wasn’t going to buy a newer car, specifically for her benefit, like she seemed to want. Her health declined rapidly. 3 years later, she was found dead of pneumonia. Other neighbor retired early also. Unsure if it was a dynamic where he figured his wife could take care of them and continue working, but she dumped him, he couldn’t continue to afford his apartment and moved in with his mother. So, even people in 50s, oddly enough, sometimes live some fantasy, that they can just stop working and rope someone in, to do all the work, for them. This can be a DEADLY mistake. I KNOW I have to put up with my job, until I am dead.
It's also important to watch out for his health. Working nonstop just to get to that number the soonest may take a toll on this body. Balance it out. Strategize and live a little without losing that focus on the goal of retirement. Good luck!
A 10% withdrawal rate has a 82% chance of running out of money after 20 years. A 5% withdrawal rate has a 7.5% chance of running out of money after 20 years. Telling the caller they could withdraw $50k a year forever is extremely dangerous advice.
@@miketheyunggod2534 You may need more money in those last years though. Health problems can incur unexpected expenses. Now for sure, this caller in particular can't retire at 65 or even 70 probably - my guess is he's gonna have to keep working until 75 or more since he has nothing at age 58
I ran into my deceased, ex husband’s younger sister, who spent her whole life having kids and never working, living off other people, church handouts, and her parents, ending up in divorce and remarried (left her second husband), yada yada…..and all she could do was complain about how she was having to work in her old age, the night shift, and standing on her feet all night. And, I thought yeah, the whole time the rest of us were working like dogs most of our careers and going to college classes, etc., you were sitting at home watching TV.

@@anniealexander9616 the Harley backs that assessment. I have a GF whose husband loves his toys. Harley, fishing boat the list goes on. He even took a lower earning position so he had more free time. Meanwhile she is a stressed out mess because the burden of the household finances is on her!
@@suen5006 No ..he never mentioned how much he paid. Trust me, he would have if that was where his money was going. I bet the house was inherited from mom and he refinanced it and took out $25k to pay off credit cards and auto loans.
I really enjoy videos with Jade; she is such a treasure and a wonderful Ramsey personality. I think after Dave broke thinks down, he felt much better, in 10 years, he will be in a pretty good position.
The idea that he can save $2000 a month on a $75K salary is also optimistic. That's half of his take-home pay. And his mortgage probably takes the other half. So no money for gas, food, utilities, medical bills, traveling to see family, vehicle maintenance, etc?
@@roadrunner9622 Well, he's only got $25k on the mortgage, so even if he only threw $2k at that it would be gone in a year freeing up $2k to investments. Even with the mortgage $2k on $75k/yr is absolutely doable for a single person.

You didn't provide detailed information about your portfolio makeup. However, I recommend seeking guidance from a financial advisor for a well-informed portfolio restructuring.
Opting for an inves-tment advisr is currently the optimal approach for navigating the stock market, particularly for those nearing retirement. I've been consulting with a coach for a while, and my portfolio has surged by 85% since 2023
I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations since this is an online forum and everyone situation is unique, but I've worked with Melissa Elise Robinson for years and highly recommend her. Look her up to see if she meets your criteria.
i dont like how he said it because he knows damn well the economy in america has sucked for decades now and the average person can never save enough money to actually retire on and most people retire on either social security alone or a combination of social security and inheritance if they are lucky enough to get a decent inheritance .

Even if you’re not skilled, it is still possible to hire one. I was a project manager and my personal portfolio of approximately $850k of my retirement pension took a big hit in April due to the crash. I quickly got in touch with a financial-planner that devised a defensive strategy to protect my funds and make profit from my portfolio this red season. I’ve made over $250k since then.
Wealth is built in both bull or bear market and also wealth transfers from the impatient to the patient. One of the best ways to succeed in crypto is by trading your assets with a good strategy.
I want to compliment you, you have said it all. I am a little business owner and I really want to expand my business to the next level by making myself an investor but I really don't know how to go about it..
Even Dave knows the rate of return he sites is wildly optimistic, particularly with the magic moment that the world has enjoyed the last 65 years starting to end due to demographic aging and so forth. That's why Dave has so much of his net worth in real estate, not in the market. Admittedly, he has most of it in real estate
Bad data leads some people to believe the market has performed really really well over the long term as if that's normal. In reality exceptional, real growth is not normal. It comes in spurts. Some people have lived most of their life without really enjoying it. The data from the late 19th century and early 20th century is almost completely irrelevant because of inflation in those days and a totally different globally economy. The baby boomer era and the post World War II order is also changing rapidly and has been for a few decades. It just doesn't make sense to say with any kind of confidence that you know 10% or 8% or whatever is going to make sense. It's just gaslighting from somebody that has so much they don't care anymore
I was so afraid of retirement for certain personal reasons that I overcompensated. I'm 3 years in retirement @59, did a good job in the accumulation phase with net worth of 3M+. The problem is I haven't spent any of it despite knowing I have no concerns of running out of money. Some minimalist traits that helped me save are not easily cast aside. I sense I'll be dead and gone with plenty of money left behind, but that was never a goal.
Wish we had similar issues, I'm 51 and mine draws near, gradually going into panic mode. Besides IRA and 401k, are there other ways we can prepare ahead of time for our retirement?
No need to panic... I was in a similar place few years back... Since you're 51 and not 58, the simplest way will be to save more and invest those savings in profitable ventures (you must either understand what you're going into or get the services of a professional so you don't end up losing your savings)… I almost doubled my retirement savings in my last 7 years through only stocks and Etfs. You got this, relax!
By professional, do you mean an FA? Did you use one? What are the steps for getting one? Like a really good one? I could definitely use external help right now. Thanks
Yes, I use one. Don't know if I am permitted to go into details here, but you should start by looking out for those from credible firms and good track records. You should also make sure the person is licensed. Mine is Allen Mike Eckrich and you could also look him up though I'm not so sure he's taking on new people atm.
I retired at 55 from a blue collar job and can’t imagine working until 67. He can take social security early at 62 and probably live off that. This 10 year plan sounds horrible.
A Financial Planner told me Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. How can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings overtime?
That is exactly the reason I stopped trusting the financial advice of RUclipsrs; in the long run, I only end up with a jumbled collection of stocks and bonds. Whereas all I needed to earn over $350k in less than two years was guidance from a true market expert.
Thanks for sharing, I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
He'll have to earn at least 14% on average to hit 500,000 in 10 years. That's going to be tough to do. And 10% withdrawal rate is too high in my opinion.
Count on a 6% return on investment, and a withdraw rate of 4%. Another hint, don't take investment advice from someone who believes in a talking snake and a flying zombie.
do not agree with the comments about not being tired. i am 58 and having worked 70-80 hr weeks most of my life , i am no longer able to work as i used to, not a case of being tired . not able
It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.
Effective personal finance management is more important than the amount of money saved, regardless of whether income is earned through job or investment. Individuals can seek counsel from a certified financial advisor to optimize financial outcomes, who can provide specialized advice and methods to decrease expenses and maximize income.
I completely agree; I am in my mid 40s, approaching retirement, and have approximately over 2million dollars in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, the Fin-advisor can only be neglected, not rejected. Just do your due diligence to identify a fiduciary one.
Finding financial advisors like MARISA BRETON DOLLARD who can assist you on things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded, going over tax benefits, ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
Marisa has the appearance of being a great authority in her profession. I looked her up online and found her website, which I reviewed and went through to learn more about her credentials, academic background, and employment. She has a fiduciary duty to protect my best interests. I sent her an email outlining my objectives and also booked a session with her; thanks for sharing.
Try a 10% withdraw rate starting in the year 2000 and you’ll see why that’s exceptionally dangerous advice since you’d have ZERO dollars before the decade was over. You don’t retire over long periods of time and take the average, sequence of returns risks should be accounted for and it’s ridiculous that Dave refuses to look into the actual facts and see that throughout almost all of history, the safe withdraw rate has been much less than 10%. I strongly encourage any of you reading this to look into sequence of returns risk before you end up broke in your 70’s.
@@87vortex87 4% is safe for a 30 year time horizon but a dynamic percentage of portfolio approach is a lot safer for those of us like myself retiring before 40.
Not sure how generous the US military pension is, but I 100% agree. It’s great to know that I have almost twice the UK average annual pension amount locked in, and I’m not even 40. Even when I get out at 40, I’ll have almost as much as that average amount paid to me until retirement.
well the fact is that most retired americans live solely on either social security or pensions because there is no way that even some of the most well paid people will ever have enough money saved to actually retire on if they stop working at the age of retirement , between 62 and 70 .
@@marleonetti7 That's because most people are idiots and refuse to sacrifice to save money. If you start putting 10% away when you get your very first job in high school, you'll never even miss the money because it's gone before you even get your check, just do that forever. Pretend it's not your money, because it's not - until you're 60.
@@marleonetti7as someone that lives in South Carolina now you're definitely right nobody lives on Social Security😂 all the retired people that are living in nice houses are pensions🎉 and the sad part is all the pensions have changed so the next generation won't be able to do that

This is why people like The Money Guy show are more well suited to help people since they’re actually CFP’s. Save, invest, live frugally and then pay low interest debt. Can’t eat your house when you retire
Run a Monte Carlo simulation on a 10% withdrawal rate and you’ll find that the probably your money will run out is quite high. The generally accepted safe withdrawal rate is 4%, not 10%, for good reason.
He has $20,000 in the bank. You don't need life insurance if no one is depending on your income. I had an insurance agent try to sell me a million dollar policy on me and my wife. He said a lot of rich people do that for their children. It's a cheap way to leave money for your kids. I did the math on it and if we lived 20 years we would have paid $460,000 in premiums. Seemed like a pretty stupid idea to me.
@@ozarked2363 that’s not enough considering you also need a emergency fund of at least 4-6 months so if you have that plus $20k you’re good to go if not save more or get a policy!
*The amazing skills of real estate are that it help keep the family, aid financial support, and can serve as a retirement tool when retired. It's passive income which rewards hard work and patience*
Yeah cos if you take out 50, the other 450 is still making you more money while you live off the 50 for that year. And he wouldn't even be taking out a full 50 since social security will help him too, so he'd be leaving in more than 450 so that's more money to make him more money to get him by.
@@ElijsDima I just told the other guy that you wouldn't need to take out the full 50 cos of social security, if he only takes out 30 a year, then the 470 would only need like 7% to replenish it back to 500k, and yes I know that some years will be less growth than that but some will be more than 7% too.
Who can save monthly $2000? I make $6000 a month but I can't save $2000, something always come up to pay like car fix, dentist, life stuff. I just can't
how does 500,000 give you 50k per year ? that would be earning 10% on your money. You would pay tax on that interest also but I would like to know the strategy to get 10%
@@CarolLustgarten a life of singleness is certainly better than a miserable marriage and divorce. But a wonderful marriage is TREMENDOUSLY better than being single. The joy of a committed marriage is almost inexpressible, and I believe it is the closest thing to representing the relationship between God and his children we can experience here on earth. But most choose rashly, impetuously, impurely, selfishly, and poorly. Faced with that approach, it’s best to stay single.
Recently retired and unsure if my 401(k) and IRA will provide a stable future. i need an approach that will align with my risk tolerance and financial goals, i set aside $1m to achieve this. Do you suggest i get into stocks or buy a rental property?
Look up dividend aristocrats. Pick six to ten from that list. Those companies have a track record of 25+ years of paying dividends. Also, it’s advisable you work with a financial advisor to help set up a well-structured portfolio.
I agree. Based on personal experience working with a financįal advisor, I currently have $2 million in a well-diversified portfolio that has experienced exponential growth from when i started. It's not only about having money to invest in, but you also need to be knowledgeable, persistent, and have strong hands to back it up.
I work with Jessica Lee Horst as my fiduciary advisor. Simply look up the name. You would discover the information you needed to schedule an appointment.

More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.
The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.
More reason I enjoy my day to day market decisions is that i'm being guided by a portfolio-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time, both employing profit-oriented strategy and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downtrends, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis, it's quite impossible not to
talking about coaching, do u consider anyone worthy for recommendations? I have about 80k to taste the waters now that large cap stocks are at a discount... thanks
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Sophia Maurine Lanting turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
@@hekilleen If he's down to just 25k left on the mortgage since exiting the divorce empty-handed then saving for years for a down payment and having since poured surplus cash into, it's probably not a fancy home at all. Probably very modest. He had also saved 23k in cash.

This is why I've entrusted a fiduciary with my investment decisions. Many underestimate advisors until emotions lead to losses. My advisor crafted a tailored strategy aligning with my long-term goals, guiding entry and exit points for the equities I focus on. This has grown my portfolio to $780k, generating sufficient dividends for my household's needs.
That's fascinating. How can I contact your Asset-coach as my portfolio is dwindling?
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Melissa Terri Swayne” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I copied her whole name and pasted it into my browser; her website appeared immediately, and her qualifications are excellent; thank you for sharing.
Retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My parents both spent same number of years in the civil service, but my mom was investing through a wealth manager, and my dad through the 401k.
This is true. I'm in my mid 50's now. My wife and I were following this same trajectory. Last two years, I pulled out my money and invested with her wealth manager. Not catching up with her profits over the years, but at least I earn more. I'm making money even before retiring, and my retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.
It's true, not everyone has access to this kind of information. Lack of knowledge can definitely make people panic. it's amazing that i’ve been able to make over $687k passively through investing with an advisor! Having a great wealth manager can really make a difference, regardless of how the economy is doing. Keep up the good work!
At a point like this, when the pressure is already on you to retire, its best recommended you seek the services of an adviser, as this allows you make smarter investing decisions.
Can you recommend any? I am in need of a Cfa to grow my retirement account.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘Grace Adams Cook’ for about two years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive. She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
Thank you. Just what I needed to watch. My wife and I are directors of our own business and own a few property, plus other income . I am nearly 52, We have started to save to retire perfectly, and possibly live on rental income, I'd really appreciate you go LIVE and talk about how to earn passive income online and retire comfortably
Maybe you should consider financial planning, It really isn’t about how much you save, it’s about how you manage your money. Whether you work to earn income or invest, it still boils down to income vs expenses
I completely agree. As I age and approach retirement, I have approximately $1,250,000 in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, having a portfolio-advisor for investing is genius!
Do you mind sharing info on the adviser who assisted you? I'm 39 now and would love to grow my stock portfolio and plan my retirement
I started out with a Financial Adviser called “Sonya Lee Mitchell”. Her honest approach gives me complete ownership and control of my position, and her rates are incredibly affordable given my ROI. However, do your due diligence before contacting a financial advisor.

My original retirement plan was to retire at 62, work part-time, and save money. However, high prices for everything have severely affected my plan. I'm concerned if people who went through the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am having now. The stock market is worrying me as my income has decreased, and I fear I won't have enough savings for retirement since I can't contribute as much as before.
I’m 77 and still working full time. I do enjoy my work, it provides me with purpose and has secured my financial future. Most people are too eager to retire as early as possible. Even if you do retire early, best to get a part time job for the reasons cited above, as well as following many if not all of the suggestions in this video.
Accurate asset allocation is crucial. Some use hedging or defensive assets in their portfolio for market downturns. Seeking financial advice is vital. This approach has kept me financially secure for over five years, with a return on investment of nearly $1 million.

When I was 60 I began to notice things becoming harder at work, at the age of 62 I found it really difficult to get out of bed every morning to go to work, and once there my body was struggling to cope with everyday manual tasks! How this Government can expect people to work into their 70s is beyond me!!
Newsflash: when they set social security up,in 1935,they expected most people to be dead by 62. It was never supposed to support the majority of Americans into their 80's.
It’s called being burnt out.
I agree!!
Especially since the people who have to work that long, more than likely, had very demanding jobs throughout their lives…
I was tired getting out of bed at 20 & made a commitment to retire by age 45 latest….It’s called failing to plan is planning to fail and taking action not thinking about it.
I just started a new job and I am 53 its a low level paying job! And I work at a nursing home! I am telling everyone please take care of your health and eat clean and exercise! I saw these people in their 60s and 70s and I was so heart broken! Ya May think it’s all about money but really it’s your health
Yes! Money affects everything but health affects EVERYTHING. Being poor in good health is 100x better than having enough but being in poor health.

Surely you mean you don't have "enough" to retire> I'm assuming you have some savings. I was in this same position four years ago and it was depressing. I had only 80k to my name and I was 61. It was a hard time for me. My wife and I made the hard choice and sold our house in Florida to move to Texas. I invested some of the money from the sale in the stock market. The portfolio is up 300k this year alone.

Safest approach i feel to tackle it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
A good number of people discredit the effectiveness of financial advisors in exploring new markets, but over the past 10years I’ve had a financial advisor consistently restructure and diversify my portfolio/expenses and I’ve made over $1.2m in gains… might not be a lot but i'm financially secure.

Retire in my 40's if I wanted to.
That's not new. Everyone should expect to get wrong advice sometimes. My family thought I was trying to hard to save at 27. 20 years later, it was a different outlook from everyone.

It's crucial to have a well-thought-out strategy and not make impulsive moves based on short-term market fluctuations. Patience and a long-term perspective are key. You should consider a market expert to guide you.
A financial advisor could really help you re-adjust and identify blindspots that you yourself do not notice, like mine did in advising me during COVID on how the pandemic will shape things, and I made it out big and still make up to at least 20k in dividend per month.

Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.
the strategies are quite rigorous for the regular-Joe. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset/knowledge to pull such trades off.
I wholeheartedly concur; I'm 60 years old, just retired, and have about $1,250,000 in non-retirement assets. Compared to the whole value of my portfolio during the last three years, I have no debt and a very little amount of money in retirement accounts. To be completely honest, the information provided by invt-advisors can only be ignored but not neglected. Simply undertake research to choose a trustworthy one.

This is why you live like the 1860's. Ensure your house is pretty protected from okwhatever Acts of God transpire in your area. Ours is fire so our home has steel siding like you'd see on a shed or construction building. We have no intention of loosing it. We E-bike most places and I choose not to drive, we only insure him to save $. Honestly I drive but my eyes are getting weak so it's really not a good thing, I do it only on Sunday mornings about 1x a month driving about 3 miles. I am coming to a close but E-biking is more comfortable to me. You live in an area where you are not 100% relying on a power and utility company. We have Solar and the propane company comes sometimes. DIY is the way to go then you are not in as much risk

The idea of investing a significant sum of money may be both thrilling and intimidating. There is potential for considerable wealth increase with the correct strategy. How can one take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings to about $1M over time?
I think the safest strategy is to diversify investments. Like spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions.

impressive gains! how can I get your advlsor please, if you dont mind me asking? I could really use a help as of now
I have a female advisor named Lucia Alicia Cruz. I recommend researching her. To be very honest, I'm glad I decided to let someone handle expanding my finances even though I almost didn't think I should.
Thank you for sharing this. I took the time to Google the individual you mentioned, and after reviewing her resume, it is evident that she is a seasoned professional. I have reached out to her and am eagerly awaiting her response.
Trim Carpenter here too. I appreciate the kind words about our craft. We do always have more work than we can do.
I bought “exhausted” houses, fixed them up & now have a small fleet of rentals to go along with my retirement savings. Bingo. Working nights & weekends while my friends were having fun made the difference. Like Dave says: “Living like no one else. So you can live like no one else”
None of this is “brain surgery”.
A dream/goal without a plan, is just a wish.
As a soon-to-be retiree, keeping my 401k on track after a bumpy 2022 is a high goal. I've read about investors generating up to $250k ROI in this present sinking market; any suggestions for increasing my ROI before retirement would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, you are right. it's been a brisk tailwind for investors in US stocks over the decades but it is still a delicate season now, so I advise you to consider the guidance of a financial advisor.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions.

Especially this idiot! Retirement is never a chief concern for financial dilletente who blames divorce for his lifetime of STUPID FINANCIAL SELF-DESTRUCTIVE BEHAVIOR.
True, the difference is he can sell the bike and get most or some of the money back. I somehow get the feeling he lived years not being able to spend something for himself while wife used everything. So I GET that part tho. He still has a way out compared to other worst cases I heard on this show

Investing has been rather rewarding to me and I've learned that getting a good roi is very much attainable if you know your way around it.
How are you able to do it? Not everyone is as lucky as you know.
Luck is way off the picture. Jonas Herman, a licensed fiduciary is the brain behind my success. I've gotten into a plethora of assets with $19k spread across stocks (options and futures) for the short term and Roth IRA, index funds, cryptocurrency and ETFs, for the long term. Now with over 91k in roi, I sit back and just reinvest at intervals while I handle my other businesses.
To me, investing is not worth it and I know that's the same mindset holding me back from taking a step forward in my finances. It’s all gambling.
Sure

My mother is in a similar situation; she just turned 60 with nothing saved for retirement. I absolutely hate the situation for her but its been one of my biggest motivations to working through the baby steps and living like no one else now so I can live like no one else later. I understand I'm not obligated to, but I hope in 5-10 years I'll have put myself in a situation where I can help her out.... BS6 currently.

Suggesting a 10% (50K annually spend from 500K invested) safe withdrawal rate is crazy.
It's was the same thing.
I retired with $600k saved, and looking back, I realize I could’ve done things differently. Not saving enough, plus the impact of inflation and sequence of returns risk, makes me worry about outliving my savings, and it’s not something I can easily ignore. Not saying it’s the only way to go, but it’s something I think about
I'm approaching retirement and having a financial advisor has been helpful. I started investing later than most, so relying on compound interest from index funds or bonds alone wasn’t enough for me. Despite that, I’ve managed to do well and am on track to retire with around $5 million
Yeah, always good to plan for retirement when young. We all think we don’t have to worry about it until later but the fact is, the earlier you learn about financial literacy the better you can plan for it. With amount of savings, you could probably try different side projects to generate some extra income to stash more cash.
Congratulations! Saving and investing $5m by retirement is my financial goal. Since I started young, I have a lot more options to get there. Financial advisor might be something I will look at later in life but mainly to figure out how to pay my fair share of taxes without overpaying. The tax code is written for business owners, the more savvy you are, the more you can save. That’s the part that is more complex to me. Maybe even need an estate lawyer if you are in the millions range already to ensure I am building and passing generational wealth.
I'm worried about my retirement portfolio and could use some guidance. How can I get in touch with your advisor?
Melissa Elise Robinson is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’ll find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
Most Americans find it hard to retire comfortably amid economy downtrend. Some have close to nothing going into retirement, my question is, will you pay off mortgage as a near-retiree, or spread money for cashflow, to afford lifestyle after retirement?
as most investing-related questions, the answer is, it depends my best suggestion is to consider advisory management.
Agreed, the role of advisors can only be overlooked, but not denied. I remember in early 2020, during covid-outbreak, my portfolio worth around 300k took a slight fall, apparently due to the pandemic crash, at once I consulted an advisor in order to avoid panic-selling. As of today, my account has yielded big fat yields, and leverages on 7-figure, only cos I delegate my excesses right.
this is huge! mind if I look up the adviser that guides you please? only invest in my 401k through my employer for now, but enthused about diversifying my investments for a prosperous financial future
I've shuffled through a few advisors in the past, but settled with Annette Christine Conte her service is exemplary. I'd suggest you research her further on your browser, sure you'll find her basic info.

@@oldfredbear Sometimes it does! We have friends who own a large apple orchard in the state of Washington.
Sounds like he needs to work until he dies. Sorry buddy.
A potentially better response, would have been to tell him to bring on an apprentice, take on more work while teaching them the trade and then sell the apprentice the business to essentially create a saleable investment when he finally retires.
Yup, but that 10 years is going to make a lot of difference. A good lesson for us all in prioritizing investing for retirement. Even little bits here and there add up over the years. It's a lot harder when you're starting at 58.
The motorcycle was more of a priority than saving a little something for the inevitability of being too old to work...until that mindset is changed a lot of people are doomed.
The caller has his priorities straight. 😎
It’s the age old question whether you should “carpe diem” or “memento mori”…
You say carpe diem, but the truth is, people should “plan as if they were going to live 1000 years, but live as if they were going to die tomorrow”. That’s what BALANCED budget is for.
PS. I became financially free in my late 30s. I don’t need to work anymore and it feels great. I can also buy more toys now - the best part is: my investments pay for these toys!
The motorcycle is most likely the only thing keeping him wanting to be alive... at a certain point you gotta way the pros and cons.. I would be getting rid of that specific bike, but I would also be buying another used bike in its place
Child like mentality. Actually he should get rid of the motorcycle and high risk lifestyle .
The cost of the motorcycle is immaterial to what he needs to retire on. He is not unable to retire because of the motorcycle.
I'm close to that age and don't think I can go through another job search/job start. Just not up to the "paying your dues" that comes with a new job. I'm about worn out.
I just turned 71 and am still working - got a promotion two years ago. My employer has a generous time off policy, and my job allows me to travel around the world. I hope I don't get worn out for a long time.

500k in a mutual fund doesnt generate 50k in income annually. That is a bad plan
The mutual fund would have to have some serious etfs at least a third value of the fund that pay at least 5percent or more dividend yield, S&P 500 efts such as VOO isn't going to cut it especially 500k worth of it.
It would of made more than 50k last yr, around $130k. My 401k made over 24% last yr.
Vanguard has seven ETFs that have gains of 12-16% since their inception (more than 10 years).
I never liked mutual funds. All those different fee's and charges can take a big bite into returns. I'll stick with ETF's and stocks. There are plenty of ETF's that will generate more than 10% net return after the expense ratio is deducted. I've got a couple that are returning more than 15% and pay monthly. $50k a year off of a $500k portfolio is not a problem. Just learn to do it yourself, instead of paying someone thousands to guess for you. That became my job after retirement. Now I only work at it for 4 or 5 hours a week and make more than when I was working.
@@edb484 It is a dangerous assumption to plan for a 10% return YOY. You have to pay taxes, account for inflation, and assume there are down years. There is a reason the 4% rule has been a given forever.
No, $500k will not give you $50k/yr "forever." Using the 4% rule, $500k (invested properly) would provide you $20k/yr (increased for inflation each year after) and have a 95% chance of lasting 30 years.

I was tired of working at 58 because my cancer came back but i still had to work until 62
That is the thing I had to learn many years ago, that I think many don’t understand, especially when they’re young.
I had a coworker, who got breast cancer. Like a lot of people, I’d watched too much TV perhaps. Every time someone was sick, they were in a hospital bed. I wasn’t aware, until my coworker’s situation, that she had to continue to work, with cancer.
Now that I’m older and have just a knee injury, it hits home for me. And as I have no family, I’m going to have to crawl to work, if I have to. It’s a shame as, WFH is really appropriate to this. But, my work place only offers limited WFH.
So sorry
this is what is going to happen to many young people, they think they will never retire and work until they die but in reality they will work until they get elderly and illness strikes and they will be too sick to be employed and they will end up on social welfare programs it will be us successful taxpayers that will be paying for them.
@@reesercliff I haven’t seen any better, with people in their 50s and I’m almost 60.
While I am unsure of her entire story, I got the impression my downstairs neighbor retired early, with no plans in place, medical or financial. Was quite relaxed about it and said she had “all the time in the world”. I got the impression she figured, being just 6 years older than me, why should she continue working 👉🏽 when I still worked and we really didn’t even know each other. She soon started taking ill and, as her family, who lived nearby, wasn’t going to help her, she “decided” I was it. Not even sure if she decided I was it, when she first moved in. Thing is, the choice didn’t belong to her. I wasn’t going to be her free caregiver. I wasn’t going to be roped in, by caring for a dog she decided to adopt, but couldn’t care for herself. I wasn’t going to buy a newer car, specifically for her benefit, like she seemed to want. Her health declined rapidly. 3 years later, she was found dead of pneumonia.
Other neighbor retired early also. Unsure if it was a dynamic where he figured his wife could take care of them and continue working, but she dumped him, he couldn’t continue to afford his apartment and moved in with his mother.
So, even people in 50s, oddly enough, sometimes live some fantasy, that they can just stop working and rope someone in, to do all the work, for them. This can be a DEADLY mistake.
I KNOW I have to put up with my job, until I am dead.

True, It has never been easier to understand how to build your money after retirement than it is right now with the inflation, when you may study and experience a completely variegated market passively by employing a successful portfolio-advisor. The impacts of the U.S. dollar's gain or fall on investments, in my opinion, are complex.
Even if you’re not skilled, it is still possible to hire one. I was a project manager and my personal portfolio of approximately $850k of my retirement pension took a big hit in April due to the crash. I quickly got in touch with a financial-planner that devised a defensive strategy to protect my funds and make profit from my portfolio this red season. I’ve made over $250k since then.

Bad data leads some people to believe the market has performed really really well over the long term as if that's normal. In reality exceptional, real growth is not normal. It comes in spurts. Some people have lived most of their life without really enjoying it. The data from the late 19th century and early 20th century is almost completely irrelevant because of inflation in those days and a totally different globally economy. The baby boomer era and the post World War II order is also changing rapidly and has been for a few decades. It just doesn't make sense to say with any kind of confidence that you know 10% or 8% or whatever is going to make sense. It's just gaslighting from somebody that has so much they don't care anymore
Might sound morbid, but once the boomer generation starts to pass there will be a huge supply of real estate with demand that doesnt meet it.

I was so afraid of retirement for certain personal reasons that I overcompensated. I'm 3 years in retirement @59, did a good job in the accumulation phase with net worth of 3M+. The problem is I haven't spent any of it despite knowing I have no concerns of running out of money. Some minimalist traits that helped me save are not easily cast aside. I sense I'll be dead and gone with plenty of money left behind, but that was never a goal.
Wish we had similar issues, I'm 51 and mine draws near, gradually going into panic mode. Besides IRA and 401k, are there other ways we can prepare ahead of time for our retirement?
No need to panic... I was in a similar place few years back... Since you're 51 and not 58, the simplest way will be to save more and invest those savings in profitable ventures (you must either understand what you're going into or get the services of a professional so you don't end up losing your savings)… I almost doubled my retirement savings in my last 7 years through only stocks and Etfs. You got this, relax!
By professional, do you mean an FA? Did you use one? What are the steps for getting one? Like a really good one?
I could definitely use external help right now. Thanks
Yes, I use one. Don't know if I am permitted to go into details here, but you should start by looking out for those from credible firms and good track records. You should also make sure the person is licensed. Mine is Allen Mike Eckrich and you could also look him up though I'm not so sure he's taking on new people atm.
I'm 31 but on track to retire by 55. I feel like I'll be in the same boat you're now in.
I retired at 55 from a blue collar job and can’t imagine working until 67. He can take social security early at 62 and probably live off that. This 10 year plan sounds horrible.
This guy sounded like me at 50. But somehow I started saving and somehow it started accumulating, thank you God
@@buckybarnes3803 I started saving at 30 and I'm going to be okay. If I'd started saving at 20 I would be absolutely set.
Why thank God? Sounds like you’re the one who made the hard choices and sacrifices. I credit you, not him.
@@lebojaywow that's disgusting
A Financial Planner told me Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. How can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings overtime?
In times like this it is better to seek help from a professional as such key decisions are better guided by experts with market experience.
That is exactly the reason I stopped trusting the financial advice of RUclipsrs; in the long run, I only end up with a jumbled collection of stocks and bonds. Whereas all I needed to earn over $350k in less than two years was guidance from a true market expert.
Thanks for replying, That's a very impressive return, You must have a good idea of stocks. How did you go about it?
Annette Christine Conte is the licensed advisor I use. Just search the name. You’d find necessary details on the web to set up an appointment.
Thanks for sharing, I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
Not quite clear how you can get $50 000 per year from $500 000 bank account?
He'll have to earn at least 14% on average to hit 500,000 in 10 years. That's going to be tough to do. And 10% withdrawal rate is too high in my opinion.
Count on a 6% return on investment, and a withdraw rate of 4%. Another hint, don't take investment advice from someone who believes in a talking snake and a flying zombie.
Dave thinks all people working in trades are in great demand. He has no pulse on the job market
Yep all jobs are not equal… but he is selling 24/7 so don’t know how much he understands selling many different types of things…
500k WILL GIVE YOU 50k a year forever IS THE WORSE RAMSEY ADVICE EVER. It makes rice and beans look like prophecy.
Yeah, more like 20K if you want it to increase every year with inflation.
If you can average 12-14% 50k a year is easy peasy.
@@alanj9978you don’t need it to increase. You just need it to not go to 0. Social security pads this too.
@@as2223 If you can average 12% a year, you're probably married to Nancy Pelosi. Normal people, not so much.

Jade said exactly what this guy didn't want to hear but really needed to hear
do not agree with the comments about not being tired. i am 58 and having worked 70-80 hr weeks most of my life , i am no longer able to work as i used to, not a case of being tired . not able
It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.
Effective personal finance management is more important than the amount of money saved, regardless of whether income is earned through job or investment. Individuals can seek counsel from a certified financial advisor to optimize financial outcomes, who can provide specialized advice and methods to decrease expenses and maximize income.
I completely agree; I am in my mid 40s, approaching retirement, and have approximately over 2million dollars in external retirement funds. I am debt free and have very little money in retirement funds compared to the total value of my portfolio over the past three years. To be honest, the Fin-advisor can only be neglected, not rejected. Just do your due diligence to identify a fiduciary one.
This is exactly how i wish to get my finances coordinated ahead of retirement. Can you recommend the financial advisor you used to get ahead?
Finding financial advisors like MARISA BRETON DOLLARD who can assist you on things like investing, insurance, making sure retirement is well funded, going over tax benefits, ways to have a volatility buffer for investment risk would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
Marisa has the appearance of being a great authority in her profession. I looked her up online and found her website, which I reviewed and went through to learn more about her credentials, academic background, and employment. She has a fiduciary duty to protect my best interests. I sent her an email outlining my objectives and also booked a session with her; thanks for sharing.
Try a 10% withdraw rate starting in the year 2000 and you’ll see why that’s exceptionally dangerous advice since you’d have ZERO dollars before the decade was over. You don’t retire over long periods of time and take the average, sequence of returns risks should be accounted for and it’s ridiculous that Dave refuses to look into the actual facts and see that throughout almost all of history, the safe withdraw rate has been much less than 10%. I strongly encourage any of you reading this to look into sequence of returns risk before you end up broke in your 70’s.
Save rate is 4%, been researched dozens of time. Still holds true.
@@87vortex87 4% is safe for a 30 year time horizon but a dynamic percentage of portfolio approach is a lot safer for those of us like myself retiring before 40.
Calls like this make me thankful that I joined the military at 18 and got a military pension after 20 yrs of service.
Not sure how generous the US military pension is, but I 100% agree. It’s great to know that I have almost twice the UK average annual pension amount locked in, and I’m not even 40. Even when I get out at 40, I’ll have almost as much as that average amount paid to me until retirement.
well the fact is that most retired americans live solely on either social security or pensions because there is no way that even some of the most well paid people will ever have enough money saved to actually retire on if they stop working at the age of retirement , between 62 and 70 .
@@marleonetti7 That's because most people are idiots and refuse to sacrifice to save money. If you start putting 10% away when you get your very first job in high school, you'll never even miss the money because it's gone before you even get your check, just do that forever. Pretend it's not your money, because it's not - until you're 60.
Thank you for your service
@@marleonetti7as someone that lives in South Carolina now you're definitely right nobody lives on Social Security😂 all the retired people that are living in nice houses are pensions🎉 and the sad part is all the pensions have changed so the next generation won't be able to do that
wow, I never heard of anyone being tired of working, thanks for sharing this news.
My husband never saved a dime, just spent is paycheck every week, broke by Tuesday, gets social security retirement now and is broke after a week of getting it, that's about 2000$
This is why people like The Money Guy show are more well suited to help people since they’re actually CFP’s. Save, invest, live frugally and then pay low interest debt. Can’t eat your house when you retire
@curtis3688 No, but you sell it?
And they actually know that a 10% withdrawal rate is super risky and a terrible idea. Love their show and find very little a disagree with there.
Run a Monte Carlo simulation on a 10% withdrawal rate and you’ll find that the probably your money will run out is quite high. The generally accepted safe withdrawal rate is 4%, not 10%, for good reason.
Then we all need $2M to retire and not in equity either!
🤦🏽♀️ if you die on Monday the funeral is usually Saturday. Can you sell a house in 6 days? At least have a $20k policy to pay for a funeral
Funerals are NEVER in the weekend.
@@amireallythatgrumpy6508 funerals YOU been to!! Most are for ppl who have their affairs in order!!
He has $20,000 in the bank. You don't need life insurance if no one is depending on your income. I had an insurance agent try to sell me a million dollar policy on me and my wife. He said a lot of rich people do that for their children. It's a cheap way to leave money for your kids. I did the math on it and if we lived 20 years we would have paid $460,000 in premiums. Seemed like a pretty stupid
idea to me.
@@ozarked2363 that’s not enough considering you also need a emergency fund of at least 4-6 months so if you have that plus $20k you’re good to go if not save more or get a policy!

He just said that "$500,000 will throw him $50,000/year forever..." Really? 10% withdrawal rate?
Yeah cos if you take out 50, the other 450 is still making you more money while you live off the 50 for that year. And he wouldn't even be taking out a full 50 since social security will help him too, so he'd be leaving in more than 450 so that's more money to make him more money to get him by.
It's my single largest point of disagreement with Dave. Utter insanity that withdrawl rate.
@@luminous6969 youd need like a 13% annual gain on that 450. Consistently, every year forever. Not realistic at all.
@@ElijsDima I just told the other guy that you wouldn't need to take out the full 50 cos of social security, if he only takes out 30 a year, then the 470 would only need like 7% to replenish it back to 500k, and yes I know that some years will be less growth than that but some will be more than 7% too.
Dave doesn’t know what he’s taking about. Many people have debunked his lies.
“I don’t wanna work anymore”
Dave “pick up extra work”
😂
Who can save monthly $2000? I make $6000 a month but I can't save $2000, something always come up to pay like car fix, dentist, life stuff. I just can't
how does 500,000 give you 50k per year ? that would be earning 10% on your money. You would pay tax on that interest also but I would like to know the strategy to get 10%
Divorce DESTROYS personal finances.
Wild spending and not saving also does.
That's why I will never get married besides I just wouldn't
@@CarolLustgarten a life of singleness is certainly better than a miserable marriage and divorce. But a wonderful marriage is TREMENDOUSLY better than being single. The joy of a committed marriage is almost inexpressible, and I believe it is the closest thing to representing the relationship between God and his children we can experience here on earth.
But most choose rashly, impetuously, impurely, selfishly, and poorly. Faced with that approach, it’s best to stay single.
Recently retired and unsure if my 401(k) and IRA will provide a stable future. i need an approach that will align with my risk tolerance and financial goals, i set aside $1m to achieve this. Do you suggest i get into stocks or buy a rental property?
Look up dividend aristocrats. Pick six to ten from that list. Those companies have a track record of 25+ years of paying dividends. Also, it’s advisable you work with a financial advisor to help set up a well-structured portfolio.
I agree. Based on personal experience working with a financįal advisor, I currently have $2 million in a well-diversified portfolio that has experienced exponential growth from when i started. It's not only about having money to invest in, but you also need to be knowledgeable, persistent, and have strong hands to back it up.
Your advisor must be really good. How I can get in touch? My retirement portfolio's decline is a concern, and I could use some guidance.
I work with Jessica Lee Horst as my fiduciary advisor. Simply look up the name. You would discover the information you needed to schedule an appointment.
I searched her full name online and found her webpage. I emailed to make an appointment to talk with her; hopefully, she gets back to me.
There is zero chance that guy is getting rid of that motorcycle.
I like the saying "....if the work is going towards a goal...."
( I have no goals....the work feels heavy every passing month ) Cool video, tHanks for posting! Have a great week.
I retired at 57 and single. I've never owned a home. Being tired is not an option.
More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.
The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.
More reason I enjoy my day to day market decisions is that i'm being guided by a portfolio-coach, seeing that their entire skillset is built around going long and short at the same time, both employing profit-oriented strategy and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downtrends, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis, it's quite impossible not to
talking about coaching, do u consider anyone worthy for recommendations? I have about 80k to taste the waters now that large cap stocks are at a discount... thanks
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Sophia Maurine Lanting turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
I just checked her out on google and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
