Thank you for the kind words, Leanne :) Reminds me of the saying: 'The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today'. I wish you all the best for the future 😊
Mate, 10 years ago I was too busy wasting money, thinking I knew everything and that I was going to live forever. 30 is still young. When you are 40, then 30 will start to sound really good. Good luck 👊
@@BryanInvest😆 56, on a close to minimum, casual wage. Some weeks I only get 8-10 hrs work. And I lived overseas for 24 yrs, so I have barely any super. I was ok at saving, but always been on a low wage & knew nothing about investing. Think yourself lucky, because it can always be worse. Don’t regret those 10 years because you still have heaps of time.
Absolutely. You need to be realistic about your goals but at the same time have an abundance mindset. This is absolutely achievable for most people. It may just take longer for some.
Avocado! Great video, thankyou Bryan 😊 I've never had a well paying job or been in a position to ask for a raise - Casual work, apprenticeship, temp, and now a small business owner, so basically under, at or just above minimum wage for my whole working life (I'm mid 30s now). I just wanted to point out to everyone that it's totally still possible to invest and make passive income, even on a low salary. I invested in shares and property and now half of my income is passive income. And I fully own one property with no mortgage. Obviously if you can get a raise or higher paying job, go for it, but if you can't (like i couldn't) and/or you just really enjoy working in a low-paying industry (yep, that's me again), you can still invest on the side. We can all get to FIRE 👍 New sub from me Bryan, thanks again!
Hey Rachel, thank you for sharing! That’s a great point. I think a lot of people just give up before even trying. FIRE is definitely something everyone can strive towards. You start small then build up momentum. Even if you can’t increase your income, your wealth is always compounding. Wish you all the best on your journey 😊
Nice video - good explanation on debt recycling. Also good that you highlighted the fact that it's not a "sin" to go back to work (part-time/volunteer) coz of boredom. People usually use this as an excuse to stop their FIRE journey - saying "I will get bored anyway" or "You're not doing FIRE if you work again, why bother".
Thanks Angelo 👍 yes, I agree that people just use it as an excuse to stop FIRE. The whole point of FIRE is to take money out of the equation when it comes to doing what you want. People do get bored and need a purpose in life.
Avocado. Thank you for making videos for Australians!! It’s frustrating when other videos keep talking about Roth 401 etc. Please keep going! You have a new sub.
Haha I know what you mean. I hated it when I first tried to look up investing info on RUclips many years ago and it was all American! I appreciate your support 💙
Loved the video, great info. You know this effortlessly as breathing hence you talk super fast, pro tip while educating perhaps you could talk slower for the learners, I had pause several times and go back but it was worth it. Thank you!
Your channel is God sent because there isn’t a lot of information about investing in Australia. Binge watching all your videos and already I have learnt so much. Thank you so much Bryan…
Wonderful video, Bryan! I'm about to start my journey so perfect timing. Are there tax implications for living overseas as an Australian Citizen? (Avocado) 🥑
Hi Sarah, that's great! Good luck on your journey. Yes, there will be some tax rules you need to be aware of. If you are seriously considering moving overseas then I would recommend seeing a tax accountant. However, this article is a good start: www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/Coming-to-Australia-or-going-overseas/Australians-living-overseas/
Great video as always Bryan. Any thoughts on what you should do if you're coasting so you don't have a huge amount of tax to reduce through "good" debt? I.e. at what point do you think your "good" debt has done enough so that any more income generating investments do make money, but obviously get taxed at your marginal rate (which admittedly might not be that much if you're just barista/coasting). Anyway, should help us all enjoy a bit of avocado toast as we enjoy our later years.
Cheers Rory. That's an interesting question. I suppose it comes down to how comfortable you are with using debt and your risk tolerance. The barefoot investor always recommends avoiding debt and to pay off your home outright due to the psychological benefits. Also, if you're coasting then you basically only need to 'make it' until you turn 60. So you technically only need to earn enough for you to cover your monthly expenses. If you want to just live a fairly comfortable life over a more luxurious one then using 'good debt' to squeeze out every tax benefit becomes optional, rather than a necessity.
Biggest lesson i learnt in 2023 in the stock market is that nobody knows what is going to happen next, so practice some humility and low a strategy with a long term edge.
Nobody knows anything; You need to create your own process, manage risk, and stick to the plan, through thick or thin, While also continuously learning from mistakes and improving.
Thanks a lot mate. Yeah, property investing would have the same principle but with different strategy. I'll do a video in the future about FIRE with property.
Great video. I alway grapple with whether we should pump savings into an offset account against a mortgage versus putting it into the sharemarket. With the offset you are "saving" the 6+% and i'm not sure you will get the same "guaranteed" "savings" from shares. In addition, in my experience, maybe because of the shares i've been dealing with, but the dividends received barely amounts to having enough to buy a Big Mac meal.
Hey mate, thank you! You made some good points. Another advantage of leaving money in offset is that the savings are both guaranteed AND tax free. Whereas, we have to pay tax on dividends and capital gains for shares. Also, shares are not guaranteed to go up all the time. It comes down to risk vs reward. In time where the interest rates are low, shares may be more attractive and vice versa. As for dividends, if you set them to DRP, it will help the compound effect over the long term.
🥑 Great videos Bryan! I've been learning a lot! If you're 38 yrs old and want to start to invest to achieve FIRE by 60 yrs old, is investing in VAS (40%) and VGS (60%) ETFs still a good strategy for an egg nest in 22 years time? Dividends would be reinvested and possibly regular contributions on top of it. Would one need to rebalance it, or would a dollar cost averaging approach still work when investing in these two (i.e., not checking how it is performing through time and keep 40%/60%)? Also, chosing a chess sponsered online broker would be important due to the long-term nature of the investment, or doesn't matter? Thanks!
Thanks mate! Not financial advice, but if it were me and I was willing to wait to 60 years old (preservation age) to achieve FIRE then I would consider salary sacrificing and maxing out my concessional contribution each year. I could choose to invest the money into similar ETFs within my Super AND enjoy the huge tax benefits along the way. If I wanted some flexibility then I would considering investing some outside of super. VAS/VGS is still a popular combo for the FIRE community (although nothing is ever guaranteed). Rebalancing is a preference not a rule. We don’t know which market will outperform which in the next 20 years. A chess sponsored broker is ideal but not a 100% deal breaker. Please note, chess does not exist with US brokers. They all run on a custodial model. Best of luck mate 👍
Avocado. Nice style Bryan. Could you make a clip exploring the sums around how much super is enough, so no further contributions are required? I.e. mid 30s, 100k in super, at 7% growth, by the preservation age, is that enough? Taking into account inflation as well. Using your super seems to significantly impact the fire number, if you only need to get to 60.
Hi Byran, I just came across your channel this is my first video of yours. Its so professional. Along the lines of a different source of income. I have recently started a youtube channel. How did you learn how to do your videos? Which courses did you do to learn this? think media, Ali abdaal? Thanks will be watching your other videos thanks.
I would recommend watching these videos: ruclips.net/video/5wOkzuPzGaY/видео.htmlsi=fN3aGDhN6J-zYGZW ruclips.net/video/Xg8qykyFfdo/видео.htmlsi=TpzVHSZ9RqiqOsAd ruclips.net/video/w3PRA2czQJY/видео.htmlsi=q_xP5kT7nqmd9pVL
Hey Bryan , really nice video! I was wondering if I could help you enhance editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your video to reach to a wider audience .
Hi Bryan invest. Ok my request from you is to do a video on super fund performance AFTER fees. I never understand why all the various experts worry about fees as its the outcome I’m interested in. What were the best performing superfunds for 5 and 10 years after fees? If you make 10% after fees but had to pay 50% fee then who cares. If you make 8% after fees but 1% in fees than that is not as good
Avocado Thanks for the video!! But remember, if you look after your health and well-being when you are young, you don't have to worry about inability to travel when you are old 😊
This may be off topic, but I’m interested in the differences in risk between mutual funds and index funds. I know that mutual funds are more expensive due to being managed by a fund manager. But from a negative risk perspective is there much between them? 🥑
Not much in them. In Australia, Mutual Funds are called Managed Funds and you can invest in them directly from providers like Vanguard. The easiest way to invest in Index Funds are through an ETF. For example, VAS which is probably Australia's most popular ETF has a Managed Fund or ETF version on the Vanguard website: www.vanguard.com.au/personal/invest-with-us/etf?portId=8205
It depends on what you want exposure to. In the past the US and Aussie market have performed quite similarly. However, this does not mean it will continue this way. All we can do is speculate. You could look at an ETF that has a bit of everything so that you are well diversified.
My health will be shit by 60 when I can access super. I’m reducing my salary sacrifice to superannuation and putting that money into my non retirement portfolio. I want to be work optional by my 50s. I will still probably work because I enjoy it but I’d like to have options.
Avocado. Please could you make a video on FIRE options for Immigrants in Australia? As a son of an immigrant parent yourself, I. Sure you can relate. Thank you.
Can you make a video about options trading? I got an account with interactive brokers and although I meet all the criteria they publicly ask for (experience in stocks and options) they still don't give me access to short options and refuse to tell me why 🤷🏻♂️. Can you please make a video about that?
Haha asked for a $1 payrise got told I should be getting a pay cut due to wellbeing tax (2%) and super going up (0.5% each year) plus interest rates going up on corporate homeloan which all of the employees salary is stored as they can take 3-6 months to pay our contract company. Glad there's plenty of positions available but I'm pretty happy with my income. In Victoria it's a terrible idea to invest in real estate but it's good in Qld, buying my first home shortly then will be investing money left over into ETF which is good that I'm doing that now as theyve all gone down a fair chunk over the past 6 months. Im only 33 so doing pretty darn well, already did the FHSSS the tax when taking it out sucked haha. I love working so doubt ill retire early, $130k pa gross at the moment, travel paid for, food paid for, hotel/fuel, i only have to pay for food when im not travelling for work 😂 helping hundreds of people daily, hardest part was 4 years of uni on centrelink, being homeless on $70 a fortnight and getting out of that situation, ive done good but i know i can do better XD
Mate, thank you for sharing this with us. Well done for getting to where you are. It seems you know the direction you want to go and already on your way. The part about the $1 pay rise made me laugh out my coffee! LOL. I wish you all the best on your journey. Keep doing what you’re doing 👊
@@BryanInvest cheers man keep it up, buying the house today which is exciting XD should have it paid off in 4-6 years whilst migrating it to good debt XD
I have some experience in the cryptocurrency space and would be happy to share what I've learned along the way. Whether you need help understanding market trends, setting up secure wallets, or deciding when to buy or sell, I'm here to assist you.
Avocado!! Hey Bryan i recently did my tax return and for the first time i owed the ATO money, around 2K!!! I got a significant pay rise last year, would that have something to do with it? I barely had any deductions and have gotten some dividends from my ETFs, was just soo surprised.
Hey Joel, that’s actually a good thing! We all hate paying extra tax but it means your income has increased significantly. You’re probably taxed on a PAYG basis every quarter and maybe you were paying a bit less this year. Don’t worry, the ATO only takes owing. It’s either you pay extra each quarter or pay a remaining lump sum at the end of the year. As your income increases, it’s a good idea in the future to try and work out your tax owing at the end of the financial year so you leave some spare money there in case you get hit with a 2k bill like now.
It’s an arbitrary number I took from thin air. It’s just an example that’s not meant to represent anything. Please adjust it according to your situation.
Yeah, I recently did a video where I had Stake and CMC Markets neck and neck to be the cheapest. However, I opted for Stake for the better flexibility + not having an inactivity fee like CMC. Stake also have a current promo where if you transfer your shares from another broker, they will give you 12 months of free brokerage. They also offer better sign up bonuses + a better platform interface (IMO). CMC is also a great option if you choose to invest under $1K each time. Perfect for a DCA strategy.
Avocado, I reached F.I.R.E. at 50 and have retired from work , My main investments are still contributing to my super (Tax free at 60) and Bank term deposits @ 5% return . Im currently looking into ETFs as long as the can give me a better return than the 5% term deposits ......
Hey mate, that is awesome. At that age you only have less than 10 years until you reach preservation age. I personally would not go too crazy with ETFs since it’s not guaranteed to beat the 5% that the bank is offering in that time frame. You could essentially coast to preservation age at this point.
@@BryanInvest Thanks for the reply Bryan i retired at 50 and now im 53 ,so yeah Super is my main investment plan from now to 60 , living off my savings , and each year what i dont spend of my budget i put into super (non consessional )

"Buying a second hand corolla" might not be the best way to save money. Coz it costs almost as much as a new car.😅

Cheers mate! Enjoy the avo 🥑
Hey Bryan , really nice video! I was wondering if I could help you enhance editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which will help your video to reach to a wider audience .
Thanks mate. Not looking to hire right now but I'll keep you in mind when I do 🙂
@@BryanInvest Sure , No problem
Hi Bryan invest.
Ok my request from you is to do a video on super fund performance AFTER fees.
I never understand why all the various experts worry about fees as its the outcome I’m interested in.
What were the best performing superfunds for 5 and 10 years after fees?
If you make 10% after fees but had to pay 50% fee then who cares. If you make 8% after fees but 1% in fees than that is not as good
That sounds like an interesting video. I'll put it on my list. Thanks!
Great work buddy, we need more aussie avocado farmers😂
Can I apply for a job? 🥑👨🏻🌾
Avocado
Thanks for the video!! But remember, if you look after your health and well-being when you are young, you don't have to worry about inability to travel when you are old 😊
Good point! That is very true.
Avocado can you do a video on investing in your fifty’s
Cheers Steve. Interesting topic. I'll put it on my video idea list.
This may be off topic, but I’m interested in the differences in risk between mutual funds and index funds. I know that mutual funds are more expensive due to being managed by a fund manager. But from a negative risk perspective is there much between them? 🥑
Not much in them. In Australia, Mutual Funds are called Managed Funds and you can invest in them directly from providers like Vanguard. The easiest way to invest in Index Funds are through an ETF. For example, VAS which is probably Australia's most popular ETF has a Managed Fund or ETF version on the Vanguard website: www.vanguard.com.au/personal/invest-with-us/etf?portId=8205
Avocado! Great vid.
Thanks ☺️
Avocado good on you Brian, love your video's.
Thank you, Deb 💛
Avocado! Thanks mate
Smashed avo on toast! Great content, thanks.
Thanks Laurence! 🫡
Avocado.. Great video! My new found RUclips finance guy 🥑👌
Hey Bradley, I’m glad to have you here mate 👊
Hey mate. Does it matter which combination of ETFs to invest in? Should we focus on Australia or American ETFs? 🥑
It depends on what you want exposure to. In the past the US and Aussie market have performed quite similarly. However, this does not mean it will continue this way. All we can do is speculate. You could look at an ETF that has a bit of everything so that you are well diversified.
My health will be shit by 60 when I can access super. I’m reducing my salary sacrifice to superannuation and putting that money into my non retirement portfolio. I want to be work optional by my 50s. I will still probably work because I enjoy it but I’d like to have options.
I feel the same way! All the best to you 👍
Would it be better to debt recycle to a new investment property instead of ETFs?
Good question. You could absolutely do that if you prefer real estate over stocks. Not sure if it's 'better' or 'worse' though.
Avocado. Please could you make a video on FIRE options for Immigrants in Australia? As a son of an immigrant parent yourself, I. Sure you can relate. Thank you.
That would be an interesting video! Thanks for the idea. I will put it on my list.
Can you make a video about options trading? I got an account with interactive brokers and although I meet all the criteria they publicly ask for (experience in stocks and options) they still don't give me access to short options and refuse to tell me why 🤷🏻♂️. Can you please make a video about that?
I'm not really an options trader but it's an interesting topic so I'll put it on my video idea list. Thanks!
Haha asked for a $1 payrise got told I should be getting a pay cut due to wellbeing tax (2%) and super going up (0.5% each year) plus interest rates going up on corporate homeloan which all of the employees salary is stored as they can take 3-6 months to pay our contract company.
Glad there's plenty of positions available but I'm pretty happy with my income. In Victoria it's a terrible idea to invest in real estate but it's good in Qld, buying my first home shortly then will be investing money left over into ETF which is good that I'm doing that now as theyve all gone down a fair chunk over the past 6 months.
Im only 33 so doing pretty darn well, already did the FHSSS the tax when taking it out sucked haha. I love working so doubt ill retire early, $130k pa gross at the moment, travel paid for, food paid for, hotel/fuel, i only have to pay for food when im not travelling for work 😂 helping hundreds of people daily, hardest part was 4 years of uni on centrelink, being homeless on $70 a fortnight and getting out of that situation, ive done good but i know i can do better XD
Mate, thank you for sharing this with us. Well done for getting to where you are. It seems you know the direction you want to go and already on your way. The part about the $1 pay rise made me laugh out my coffee! LOL.
I wish you all the best on your journey. Keep doing what you’re doing 👊
@@BryanInvest cheers man keep it up, buying the house today which is exciting XD should have it paid off in 4-6 years whilst migrating it to good debt XD
Avocado, cheers mate
Thank you mate! 🥑
Avocado! was a very good video mate, appreciate it. One suggestion would be to speak a little bit slower if possible!
Thank you! Haha, yeah I get that a lot. I'm trying my best to speak slower on camera.
Guacamole! 🙂 Thanks for the good content.
Thanks Adriana! That’s my FIRE goal. Have enough money so I can afford extra Guacamole in my burrito 😄
🥑 I am just starting to wake up in how to save money to pay off my personal loan sooner. Thank you for the video

Avocado - can you making a video on your tips to invest on US funds please?
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll add it to the list!
Unbelievable boys, we have missed JB. Keep it up and make sure you get Tyrell Hatton on 😂😂😂
I enjoyed your free avocado thanks 👍🏻 by the way pay rise…?🤔
Thank you Ashley! Did you ask for a pay rise at work this year?
Avocado 🥑 thanks again!
Cheers Sian 👍
Avocado!! Hey Bryan i recently did my tax return and for the first time i owed the ATO money, around 2K!!! I got a significant pay rise last year, would that have something to do with it? I barely had any deductions and have gotten some dividends from my ETFs, was just soo surprised.
Hey Joel, that’s actually a good thing! We all hate paying extra tax but it means your income has increased significantly. You’re probably taxed on a PAYG basis every quarter and maybe you were paying a bit less this year. Don’t worry, the ATO only takes owing. It’s either you pay extra each quarter or pay a remaining lump sum at the end of the year. As your income increases, it’s a good idea in the future to try and work out your tax owing at the end of the financial year so you leave some spare money there in case you get hit with a 2k bill like now.
@@BryanInvestthanks for the response, was good to know it's not an anomaly.
10K payrise is only $5300 for some of us. Its easier to spend $5300'/less than get a 10K payrise.
That's a fair point mate 🙏 Luck and circumstances does play a factor.
Cheers mate. 🥑

How is the average individual expense 2800 a month when a single room is minimum 1400 a month?
Is that number not taking in consideration rent?
It’s an arbitrary number I took from thin air. It’s just an example that’s not meant to represent anything. Please adjust it according to your situation.
Doesnt CMC markets have the best rates atm or are you investing more than 1k at a time?
Yeah, I recently did a video where I had Stake and CMC Markets neck and neck to be the cheapest. However, I opted for Stake for the better flexibility + not having an inactivity fee like CMC. Stake also have a current promo where if you transfer your shares from another broker, they will give you 12 months of free brokerage. They also offer better sign up bonuses + a better platform interface (IMO). CMC is also a great option if you choose to invest under $1K each time. Perfect for a DCA strategy.
Avocado! Great vid
Thanks!

Avocado, I reached F.I.R.E. at 50 and have retired from work , My main investments are still contributing to my super (Tax free at 60) and Bank term deposits @ 5% return . Im currently looking into ETFs as long as the can give me a better return than the 5% term deposits ......
Hey mate, that is awesome. At that age you only have less than 10 years until you reach preservation age. I personally would not go too crazy with ETFs since it’s not guaranteed to beat the 5% that the bank is offering in that time frame. You could essentially coast to preservation age at this point.
@@BryanInvest Thanks for the reply Bryan i retired at 50 and now im 53 ,so yeah Super is my main investment plan from now to 60 , living off my savings , and each year what i dont spend of my budget i put into super (non consessional )
