You have a very valid point, I started investing on my own and for a long time, the market was really ripping me off. I decided to hire a CFA, even though I was skeptical at first, and I beat the market by more than 14.3%. I thought it was a fluke until it happened two years in a row, and so I’ve been sticking to investing via an advisor.
I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisers online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation?
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, Vivian Jean Wilhelm 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.
"When nothing is going right is when the car won't start." That's the truth. Seems like every time you ahead by a few thousand dollars, there's always some blindsiding bill that sets you right back to where you started.
"Guys can live under a bridge." LOL. Probably the most truthful thing Dave has ever said. Yeah. I've gone the "renovate while living there" route. Not fun. Wouldn't do it again. Take down the wallpaper and paint turned into take down the plaster, need to rewire, need to insulate, need new windows, redo the floors, new light fixtures, ad infinitum....
Amen. Let’s take the popcorn ceiling off to rip the walls down carpet out and completely renovate the kitchen. From $1,000 renovation to a $40,000 renovation.
At one point we asked our adult children about what to do with money like that and they all said the same thing--"It's your money. Do whatever you want!" The outcome is that we didn't know of any good ideas so we put it into Vanguard mutual funds.
Freeing up your brain to do more long term thinking / planning is a real thing. Driving around looking to save a couple bucks, or cutting coupons, or any other activity that takes a significant amount of time to save a buck. When that's no longer necessary, and you can think BIG, you really start to win with money. I look at my accounts, and when I've made more on my investments this year than my job, it really makes me start to think about how my time is best spent.
Max out your 401k and Roth IRA today. And HSA if you have one. If it's possible to sneak them into 2021 contributions, do that. Weird that he didn't ask any of the other baby step 3,4,5 questions.
He told them to invest the other $70,000 (minus whatever small vacation and car they buy) he did not need to ask them baby step questions because she told him exactly where they were financially.
I agree, they are 30, he's telling them to spend that money, which isn't to the philosophy of live like no one else, so you can live like no one else later in life. I'd find any way possible to invest or buy another property now. Build that wealth up in their 30s so they can retire early. Why buy a car if the current one is working fine, and why fix up the property faster, if you are living there and slowly fixing it up. I don't get it.

@@ridenorthwest1687 Sure. Followed by a few thousands of repair expenses few months down the line. Not to mention how inflated the used car market has become in the past year.
@@mariusz128 " down the line" yes. The SAME thing can be said for brand new cars too. Eventually they ALL will need repairs..duh. You just immediately assume that all used cars will need those thousands of dollars in repairs within 6 months or less. It Depends on the car and situation
You can get a nice used car with some extra features that’s going to be dependable for 10-15k. It will be much more enjoyable compared to a 3k car. It’s completely realistic. People just don’t want to take the time and do some research or negotiate.
It's funny because my dad has been trying to switch my brain like Dave is doing here. Once your debts are paid off and you're saving at some point you have to live your life a bit otherwise what are you even doing this for?
Not sure what car prices are like in the US, but I would possibly aim for about a $20k car. Mine was around that, five years old, but like a new car, what a world of difference. I am a saver, but sometimes you have to live a little, and go for something that improves your quality of life.
Dave needs to update his used car thinking. I bought a 2017 Kia Forte in 2019 for $10,500 with 50k miles on it. Today with 90k miles that car is worth the same amount if not a little more. The difference between a 3k car and a 10k car is substantially less then he thinks.
I guarantee you that car wouldn’t be worth that much if the used car market wasn’t in the state that it is in. Pretty much every car used or new value is ridiculously laughable given the circumstances.
The couple sounds capable of flipping homes, maybe they should say a little more and then buy another property to flip. I know debt is bad, but flipping isn't quite the same, since you are buying to sell it. Or they could buy a fixer upper, fix it up and then rent. With inflation, it is a great time to own things, though a home is much better to own then a car honestly. That or drop it in a brokerage account in an index fund that follows the S&P 500, and build some wealth.
Why doesn't he ask how much they're saving for retirement? Do they have or plan on having kids? ESA? Why have they "earned the right" to upgrade their house and buy cars? We have no idea if they are following the baby steps.
@@randymorrison1761 Right, cash savings. She said "we've been holding onto the cash." I'll assume they are doing squat with retirement. They should keep 20k in savings then spent 24k on Roths (21 and 22) 14k on HSAs (21 and 22), and 41k (22 only) on 401ks. That leaves 1k plus the 20-30k they will have saved by the end of the year. Then it's time to fund all that stuff for 2023. Where is the extra 60k Dave is talking about to finish the interior and buy two vehicles??
@@brandon9715 True. In my area, a $10K car (unfortunately) is a junker. I'll probably end up putting more money into fixing one problem or another, so it's really not worth it to buy used where I'm at. That's why when Dave and his team say buy a $5K car, I just roll my eyes. Dealing with constant car issues isn't worth it for me.
Only flaw to this great advice is that you can't buy a decent driving car fo $10k. You can if you settle for maybe lower mileage Kia Soul but that is about it. And you will be dealing with people who will secretly laught at you for driving a Kia.
