Many folks overlook the importance of advisors until their emotions cause them problems. I recall a few summers ago, after my lengthy divorce, I needed support to keep my business going.

Does anyone realize how amazing it is we get to listen to a conversation like this for free? People would have paid big 10-15 years ago for this sort of information and wisdom.
As for me, trading has been so profitable because I was guided by a pro trader known as Mr Raini.with his working strategy / daily signals which turns out to be one of the best out there.During my first week i was able to make $18,000 in just one ☝️ week why don’t you reach him out
My husband and I invest on his platform. The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week. He paid us $4500. That really helped us a lot
Lost $1000 trading with an unprofessional trader but I was introduced to Mr Frederick to help me recover and make some profits which he did, that's so impressive of him.
Wow. You guys trade with expert Mr Frederick too? He's been my account manager and broker for a while now he's really good at making profits for his clients.
I invested £3,600 with Mr Frederick after I met him at a conference in London he made me a profit of £14,890 in just 7 - 14 days of trading with him and that made me Invest more

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 $850K
Elisse Laparche Ewing is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
Looks like he was being respectful for a potential mentor and a Bbbillionaire as a millennial. Time is money to someone like Kevin.. I think it was a pretty good move.
Honestly, this concerns me and has left me uneasy. Especially this potential depression, no more a recession. I'm unsure about my $130K account strategy, considering the uncertainty of this whole recession mostly.
Agreed! this is why I work with one. My $520k portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% rise from early last year to date. I and my advsor are working on more figures for this year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.
How you know you've made it: Kevin O'Leary asks you if you have $3MM in reserves to cover your leverage and you are able to casually respond with "yes" (while wearing his suit)
Love this side of Kevin O'leary - Goes to show he's a lot nicer than what he makes himself out to be. Awesome content Graham well deserved! Look like Graham is going to be investing in art, commercial properties, and some pre ipo start ups.
I need a way to draw up a plan to set up for retirement while still earning passive income to meet my day to day need and also get charged lesser taxes even while in a higher tax bracket. i want to invest around $250K savings.
Working with a financial advisor has been a game-changer for me. They provided invaluable insights and tailored strategies that aligned perfectly with my risk tolerance and financial objectives. With their support, I've seen significant growth in my investments and gained confidence in my financial future.
When Kevin asked graham why he didn’t raise rents... I get making as much money as you can is a core principle in the world of finance, but Graham’s wisdom of wanting long term tenants is one of the many reasons why I follow the dude
Yeah I was really shocked at how surprised Kevin was that Graham doesn't raise rents. If it was me being asked why I would raise rents I'd just reply with "because I'm not an asshole".
If i bought houses I would be the same way keep lent below market value rent of the area by 2 to 5% and have long term good tenants instead of new tenants every year.
My mother rents houses. One thing I've heard from her more than anything is about bad tenants. She rents one of her houses out to this couple for the same price now for some 10 years just because they're good tenants. Bad tenants make you have to go in and renovate to a certain extent. Torn up carpet, holes in walls, etc. Nightmare.
@@digitalconsciousness I can definitely see that. At that point though I'd just put something in the contract they sign when they rent the house that if they are really bad with the place they get evicted.
@@sevencolours5014 If you raise it so that it complies with inflation then that's fine, 1 to 1.5% a year is roughly the rate of inflation anyways. But the property managers where I live for example raise it over 10% per year.
So he says never put more than 20% of your savings into one specific investment/sector (stocks, realestate, bank account, etc) what are a list of different sectors to put money into to stay diversified?
Hey Chris, you're a legend! Bonds or other fixed interest assets are an important sector because of how safe they are. Some other examples are commodities and financial derivatives such as futures and options, although most people wouldn't really have high investments in those. I wouldn't take his 20% rule too seriously though, as even he said that more than 30% of his assets are cash.
@@btn1 he said 30% of his networth is in cash. the 20% was regarding investments. so 70% of his networth is in investments and of that he'll try have no more than 20% of his invested captial in any one asset and no more than 5% in any one stock option
Lol ,That's the Bigger boss attitude .The video reminds me of a year when I was so broke that I could barely pay my bills. I remember the most important step in my life when I invested my last income with an experienced Forex trader who was recommended to me by a friend. It may seem a bit, but it took courage to know that investing was the right thing to do at the time. Today my small investment of just $ 300 generated over $ 150,000,After I kept Investing and reinvesting. To be successful, you must take a big step. It all starts here.
@@klaus1618 I had a similar experience to yours. My investment in forex trading saved me from financial burdens after losing my job. Forex trading is very profitable when you have a good Forex trader.
LitBurn 487 How, though? Unless he decides to continue to hold 3M i.e. 30% of his portfolio in cash at all times. That would not make sense because the point in using low interest rate leverage is to allow you to grow your capital at a higher rate and pocket the spread. So, it wouldn’t make sense to borrow at x % when you’re always going to keep equivalent cash losing value @~2% thru inflation. I feel like this point could have used a little more discussion. After getting laid off from my very first proper job out of college with all of the debt in front of me, it has had enough of a psychological impact on me to not be able to use debt to grow. So, I’m more with Kevin on this but I am aware the folly in my thinking as I look back at how this mindset has held me back. So, I was hoping to learn from them as to how they go about sustainably managing debt during downturns. I have some ideas of my own but learning from their experience would have been a great opportunity. I think it’s a tough needle to thread.
shreetron the cost goes down each month as his tenants pay down the debt so overtime unless he keeps buying hyper expensive real estate he will not need the 30% in cash. That was Kevin’s point about your proteins paying for your pastas.
Zach M sorry but you’re missing the point. If he is lowering his debt over time (thru whatever means), he’s no longer in the same leveraged position. In other words, taking it to an extreme, once he’s paid off everything, he’s zero loans I.e. he’d have zero obligations, which was Kevin’s original point. I get that bit. What I’m specifically looking has to do with a leveraged position, not over-leveraged, just leveraged. I wanted to understand their perspective on how they’d go about sustaining a leveraged position long term. And maintaining an equivalent amount of cash position, which was Graham’s answer to Kevin’s question, is not a sensible solution.
Recently bought some recommended stocks and now they are just penny stocks. There seems to be more negative portfolios in the last 3rd half of 2023 with markets tumbling, soaring inflation, and banks going out of business. My concern is how can the rapid interest-rate hike be of favor to a value investor, or is it better avoiding stocks for a while?
...Just ''buy the dip'' man. In the long term it will payoff. High interest rates usually mean lower stock prices, however investors should be cautious of the bull run, its best you connect with a well-qualified adviser to meet your growth goals and avoid blunder.
The truth is that this is really not as difficult as many people presume it to be. It requires a certain level of diligence, no doubt, which is something ordinary investors lack, and so a financial advisor often comes in very handy. My friend just pulled in more than $84k last month alone from his investment with his advisor. That is how people are able to make such huge profits in the market
I really don't like making such recommendations, because everybody's situation is unique. But there are many freelance advisors you could check out. We have been working with MICHELE KATHERINE SINGH , and she's really, really good. If she meets your discretion, then you could go ahead with her. I endorse her.
How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?.
I fully agree with Kevin on that. I got so many house calls and margin calls when I was poor and struggling to trade properly. Crap messes you up in so many ways. 1. It makes you sell at the bottom. 2. It makes it so you can't buy any at the bottom. 3. It adds extreme levels of anxiety you just don't need. 4. Against a market that likes eating noobs for breakfast and spitting out their bones.
"I actually have more than 30% in cash"- Kevin How I understood this is that investors are not buying in todays market and are waiting patiently for the bubble to pop.
It’s also election time, coronavirus fears, plus the stock market is currently pulling back.. this guy is way richer than we could even hope to become, No reason to waste money lol
I've been watching this stuff since I was 16, 21 now and in still pathetic lol net worth is only a little over 50k, but also just graduated college which was tough to save/invest
Market crashes are an opportune time to protect capital in the sense that one can gain years of growth from the bottom of a crash in a matter of months. this last crash provided over a decade of growth in majority of stock. Always be ready to jump at these opportunities.
@@mikeschafer4440 the video summarized it quite well, but basically the way I understand it is that if you buy a duplex let’s say for 200k, put 20% down (40k) loan is 160k, rent income for both units is 1600 a month and your mortgage is $600 (40k interest, 200k total mortgage, not sure too much on his interest works) net income is 1000, the owner of the duplex would not live a luxurious lifestyle, instead save and wait until he feels safe enough to be out of the existing debt, which is the 200k mortgage including interest. Which is why Kevin later mentioned that once the duplex is paid off then the owner would be able to eat steak because it is now debt free and the owner doesn’t have to worry about real estate crashing because he paid it off and is now profiting $1600 a month off rent. Also, Kevin mentions that the stresses of the debt (200k) in this instance can make the owner bankrupt in case of market crash, which is why the owner Eats “pasta” in his analogy. Also which is why Kevin also said to take on debt you’ll be able to get out of, hence him asking graham if he had 3 million dollars available to pay off all his debt in case of crash so he doesn’t go bankrupt. Hope this helped, I’m just stating my thoughts, anyone is free to correct if I may have said something wrong, thanks.
I know that it was an analogy to mean cutting back where possible, but for those who might take it literal: eating only pasta is not necessary to save...
I love how this is an actual conversation between these two men... Kevin is taking his time to look at the portfolio and make remarks, Graham is listening intently and giving his own explanations too. Love it!!!
@Hunan Train As a rookie holding a winning trade is difficult, i was afraid of losing profit, same as holding a losing trade, i always prefer not to accept the loss and hope it gets back to even so i can get out with no loss. With Katherine Louise Hele, as a professional mentor i was able to know a good market to invest in.

@@is300vids He didn't come from rags to riches though, literally shows in the video that he bought $291k (in cash) worth of real estate/renovations in 2012 at the age of 21 without even having credit. There's no way a 21 year old had earned that much free capital starting from nothing, he was far from poor.
Property taxes usually go up annually esp if home value rises as his all did (can be by a lot). Also home insurance and maint in terms of cost of goods (items to be replaced or trade fees ie plumbers, elections etc) and for condos HOA fees incr annually incl large lump sum fees for special reassessments on owners and there’s no control or cap on them.
@@penguin12902 you gotta understand that as a landlord the rent is often your income. Eventhough rent doesnt increase, everything else that you purchase will increase with inflation. Its not greed its simple economics.
Graham, I don't think I've ever commented on your channel, but I HAVE to say how impressed and heartened I was by hearing you say you don't raise rents. ❤️ Thank you on behalf of your tenants for being such a kind and generous property owner! Wish there were more like you!
I love how he just says, "Yeah, I get it." when graham is talking about selling his car to buy his second home. Kevin has such a boss billionaire mentality, doesn't waste time and he doesn't mess around!
It's a very smart move. Vacancy's can be thousands of dollars lost, versus hundreds gained, not to mention eventually ending up with a crappy tenant. If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
Having Kevin on the channel is really awesome. You are definitely an inspiring man Graham. I hope you are a good person as well and that you keep prospering. 👍
Graham: I'm not going to geek out and be a fanboy. 15 seconds later Graham: Hey, remember that time when you were at the place and I saw you and got a picture with you??? That was awesome.
Kevin O'Leary mentorship. He definitely didn't seem like the Shark on his show. I can now see why he's called Mr. Wonderful and on episodes why people prefer to work with him

Bitcoin and Forex trading is easier when you have the strategies and knowledge I tried trading on my own but loss totally. I advise you place your trade under an expert who knows how to trade and been in they business for some years
Nothing wrong with raising rents. Taxes go up, insurance goes up, overall cost of property goes up as time goes on. Graham making a mistake by not at least trying to keep up with market rates.
Financial education should be taught in every level of school but because of the misplaced priority we have in the system, those that don't know are suffering it.
When the recording stopped, Kevin asked to be paid for his endorsement 'smash the like button and subscribe', Graham then went into detailed analysis of a negotiated amount based on the youtube algorithm and how many people smashed the like button. Kevin responded with a base dividend amount per like over the course of the next 30 years.
This is a really smart move on Graham's part, especially since it looks like all his real estate properties look like family dwellings. My parents do the same thing with all their properties. This makes it so it is much easier to find good tenants that are generally there for the long-term and will take decent care of the property while they live there. A lot of times, the previous tenants will find new tenants for you when they move out and pass the lease on to someone they know so that you don't even have to do much legwork. By doing this, you'll never have to worry about months in between renters where you're basically losing 2-3k in rental income.
I like his thinking. He prefers long term reliable income over the stress of nickel and diming people and the hassle of always finding new tenants. Would you take a small financial hit to avoid significantly more stress and be able to focus on other things? I would
Times have changed and now stock market is all about pump and dump leaving retailers as bag holders. Bag holders turned to long term investors will still bag hold and stock might go to zero. There is too much news, too many analysts, too many factors, too many firms, insiders influencing the stock price. Retailer money is being sucked. I made $245k combined net last year and paid no Federal taxes, but i need some advise from a pro on how to move going forward
it's all about finding the right moment to take advantage of and generate colossal profit, which is why you need to do your research and find a portfolio--Advisor.

Good episode. Although I think him being at a later stage in life gives him a more conservative outlook than someone in the wealth building phase. But good advise nonetheless
OMG Graham--the transparency on your entire portofolio is mindblowing; the nuggets of financial wisdom from Kevin is priceless--we're watching the young titan vs the seasoned titan--love it! I just need to replicate this now LOL
I must say I find Kevin O'Leary a lot more enjoyable and understanding in this casual mentor-student type of conversation. He has quite a lot of expertise, but he just seems like a nicer person this way. I guess he respects Graham being self-made. And it's probably true what he says: a lot of rich self-made people that eventually get bankrupt do so because of underestimating debt. Even though their investments were smart, there's always a small chance that you have to pay off all of your loans in a down cycle but don't have the liquidity to do so.
I think that's the best part of his whole portfolio. He treats the people on the other side of the table with respect and recognizes the value they have as good tenants.
I have to agree with Kevin, your expenses as a landlord increase yearly (taxes, insurance, maintenance, etc) so the rent increase should reflect that. It doesn’t have to be a huge bump, but a set 2.5% annually at renewal, and if renter on a month-to-month, then 3% increase.
@@---cr8nw But your opinion literally invalidates the entire purpose of investment, which is to maximize profits. It's like people that ask, "Why don't corporations just make less money?" That's like asking an NBA team to limit the amount of points they put up in a game. Kevin made the right decision.
He said the same things when building that empire, and likely still does today. I also think that is an outrageous price for a sammich! Here’s to building our empires and eating pasta until we can afford steaks!
@@user-em8fq2ev4b the thing people don't realize is that $5 here and there throughout the year add up really fast. Let's say for the sake of argument you got Starbucks once a day on your way to work for one year. You would have spent $1300 over the course of that one year just towards Starbucks. That money could have been invested instead to make you money or at the very least been used on something that will provide more utility than a quick expresso for some caffeine. The rich stay rich because they don't spend their money frivolously. The poor stay poor because they do. You could be a millionaire and still end up broke if your not careful.
Billionaires acknowledge the sacrifice necessary to achieve what they've achieved. They aren't surprised by it and they aren't blind to it. To them it's the norm that you had to work 15 hours a day to build yourself up to millionaire status and it's the norm that you had to sell your car to get money for an investment.

@@brunomatassini9879 there are plenty of people who do/have done that that are not now millionaires. he was smart and got rich off his investments - but the main separator from him and other people was having the cash on hand to invest at that level, not that he's a harder worker than anyone else.
@@tonykirk8295 Highly disagree, if it were easy everyone would be a millionaire. Having the money to invest isn't the hard part especially if you're working since 16 and not blowing your money on college. I made 10,000 in 3 months working a regular 40 hour job with overtime every once in a while at age 18. Imagine if I had started at 16 and kept the job until 21. Not sure why the "cash on hand" part is what's so difficult for you to grasp when it's actually the simplest aspect of how he started off.
Fantastic stuff. Shoutout to Graham for having hundreds of thousands in savings as a 20 year old and turning into millions. It’s horrifying to watch millennials blow money regardless of how much or little they have. Loved hearing Kevin’s feedback. Very detailed and honest, and Graham can choose how much or little of that advice to use.
Kevin's greatest attribute is honesty. It's hard to find somebody that will tell you what you are doing wrong when you appear to be doing everything right.
Kevin has so much money that his sense of scale far exceeds what ours is. That meaning he doesn't need to compete with us so he can freely give advice as 99% of us won't even get close to stepping on his toes financially and it also helps to build his image. There's more profit in him helping smaller investors than it is to give them poor advice.
Omg I love the background song is Clair the lune debussy ... kevin actually besides all the wealth that he made throughout the years sounds really humble ...way to go
Can you imagine a public figure you look up to saying you've done a good job with your investments, 8 years later when you finally meet. That must feel amazing!
@@bighands69, very well said. A monthly mortgage payment (on a 30 year fixed loan) is almost always cheaper than rent would be on the same property. But the big benefit is the equity gain. Could you buy a cash house for dirt cheap and then buy a bigger one down the road when you've saved up for it? Sure. But that adds a big layer of risk over buying a modest house at a good price, and at a good interest rate, and just staying in it.
@Kristof Alexy If there is hyper-inflation, don't expect stocks or bonds to protect your wealth. If it happens, the only thing that can are real assets, of which real estate is just one example. And the operative word there was 'can', not 'will'. But there won't be hyper-inflation. It isn't caused by printing a lot of money, that has never happened. Not in Egypt, Rome, France, or Weimar. Hyper-inflation is caused by a nation losing a war, having massive losses of productive capacity, and governments being forced to take out large foreign debts denotated in currencies they don't control. And it has to happen in that order. As long as the federal debt is denotated in >90% Dollars (I believe it is 100% right now), there will be no more than 5% annual inflation.
@@rightwingsafetysquad9872, you're absolutely right about inflation risk. If you borrow 100k at 3.5% interest (like a mortgage), and inflation hits above 3.5% at any time in the next 30 years, you're literally making money in the form of equity just by spending someone else's money.
I mean, TECHNICALLY, I raise rents to keep up with rent control - BUT, I give a credit back for timely payments so their actual out of pocket doesn't go up. That way, they pay the same - I increase the rent control limits every year so I'm not left behind - and everyone wins.

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 $850K
impressive gains! how can I get your advlsor please, if you dont mind me asking? I could really use a help as of now
Elisse Laparche Ewing is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..

Honestly, this concerns me and has left me uneasy. Especially this potential depression, no more a recession. I'm unsure about my $130K account strategy, considering the uncertainty of this whole recession mostly.
Agreed! this is why I work with one. My $520k portfolio is well-matched for every market season yielding 85% rise from early last year to date. I and my advsor are working on more figures for this year. IMO, financial advisors are the most sought-after professionals after doctors.

Subscribed because of the realism Kevin brought. Just a real down-to-earth parlay. Thanks for the video
When Kevin asked graham why he didn’t raise rents... I get making as much money as you can is a core principle in the world of finance, but Graham’s wisdom of wanting long term tenants is one of the many reasons why I follow the dude
Yeah I was really shocked at how surprised Kevin was that Graham doesn't raise rents. If it was me being asked why I would raise rents I'd just reply with "because I'm not an asshole".
If i bought houses I would be the same way keep lent below market value rent of the area by 2 to 5% and have long term good tenants instead of new tenants every year.
My mother rents houses. One thing I've heard from her more than anything is about bad tenants. She rents one of her houses out to this couple for the same price now for some 10 years just because they're good tenants. Bad tenants make you have to go in and renovate to a certain extent. Torn up carpet, holes in walls, etc. Nightmare.
@@digitalconsciousness I can definitely see that. At that point though I'd just put something in the contract they sign when they rent the house that if they are really bad with the place they get evicted.
@@sevencolours5014 If you raise it so that it complies with inflation then that's fine, 1 to 1.5% a year is roughly the rate of inflation anyways. But the property managers where I live for example raise it over 10% per year.

Oh hey Chris. Had no idea your looking into this stuff too. How’s the family ?
Hey Chris, you're a legend! Bonds or other fixed interest assets are an important sector because of how safe they are. Some other examples are commodities and financial derivatives such as futures and options, although most people wouldn't really have high investments in those. I wouldn't take his 20% rule too seriously though, as even he said that more than 30% of his assets are cash.
@@btn1 he said 30% of his networth is in cash. the 20% was regarding investments. so 70% of his networth is in investments and of that he'll try have no more than 20% of his invested captial in any one asset and no more than 5% in any one stock option
A few most known sectors are Energy, Materials, Industrials, Health, Financial, Tech, Telecom, Utilities, Real Estate, and Oil.

How, though? Unless he decides to continue to hold 3M i.e. 30% of his portfolio in cash at all times. That would not make sense because the point in using low interest rate leverage is to allow you to grow your capital at a higher rate and pocket the spread. So, it wouldn’t make sense to borrow at x % when you’re always going to keep equivalent cash losing value @~2% thru inflation.
I feel like this point could have used a little more discussion. After getting laid off from my very first proper job out of college with all of the debt in front of me, it has had enough of a psychological impact on me to not be able to use debt to grow. So, I’m more with Kevin on this but I am aware the folly in my thinking as I look back at how this mindset has held me back. So, I was hoping to learn from them as to how they go about sustainably managing debt during downturns. I have some ideas of my own but learning from their experience would have been a great opportunity. I think it’s a tough needle to thread.
shreetron the cost goes down each month as his tenants pay down the debt so overtime unless he keeps buying hyper expensive real estate he will not need the 30% in cash. That was Kevin’s point about your proteins paying for your pastas.
Zach M sorry but you’re missing the point. If he is lowering his debt over time (thru whatever means), he’s no longer in the same leveraged position. In other words, taking it to an extreme, once he’s paid off everything, he’s zero loans I.e. he’d have zero obligations, which was Kevin’s original point. I get that bit. What I’m specifically looking has to do with a leveraged position, not over-leveraged, just leveraged. I wanted to understand their perspective on how they’d go about sustaining a leveraged position long term. And maintaining an equivalent amount of cash position, which was Graham’s answer to Kevin’s question, is not a sensible solution.
I think what he was referring to here was the fact that he can cashflow the payments out of his RUclips earnings if the rental income goes away.
@@shreedhar333 He can leverage his other assets to cover the cost of that 3 million.
Recently bought some recommended stocks and now they are just penny stocks. There seems to be more negative portfolios in the last 3rd half of 2023 with markets tumbling, soaring inflation, and banks going out of business. My concern is how can the rapid interest-rate hike be of favor to a value investor, or is it better avoiding stocks for a while?
...Just ''buy the dip'' man. In the long term it will payoff. High interest rates usually mean lower stock prices, however investors should be cautious of the bull run, its best you connect with a well-qualified adviser to meet your growth goals and avoid blunder.
The truth is that this is really not as difficult as many people presume it to be. It requires a certain level of diligence, no doubt, which is something ordinary investors lack, and so a financial advisor often comes in very handy. My friend just pulled in more than $84k last month alone from his investment with his advisor. That is how people are able to make such huge profits in the market

I fully agree with Kevin on that. I got so many house calls and margin calls when I was poor and struggling to trade properly. Crap messes you up in so many ways.
1. It makes you sell at the bottom.
2. It makes it so you can't buy any at the bottom.
3. It adds extreme levels of anxiety you just don't need.
4. Against a market that likes eating noobs for breakfast and spitting out their bones.

the pasta and protein analogy is absolutely eye-opening!
Can you summarize that analogy real quick?
@@mikeschafer4440 the video summarized it quite well, but basically the way I understand it is that if you buy a duplex let’s say for 200k, put 20% down (40k) loan is 160k, rent income for both units is 1600 a month and your mortgage is $600 (40k interest, 200k total mortgage, not sure too much on his interest works) net income is 1000, the owner of the duplex would not live a luxurious lifestyle, instead save and wait until he feels safe enough to be out of the existing debt, which is the 200k mortgage including interest. Which is why Kevin later mentioned that once the duplex is paid off then the owner would be able to eat steak because it is now debt free and the owner doesn’t have to worry about real estate crashing because he paid it off and is now profiting $1600 a month off rent. Also, Kevin mentions that the stresses of the debt (200k) in this instance can make the owner bankrupt in case of market crash, which is why the owner Eats “pasta” in his analogy. Also which is why Kevin also said to take on debt you’ll be able to get out of, hence him asking graham if he had 3 million dollars available to pay off all his debt in case of crash so he doesn’t go bankrupt. Hope this helped, I’m just stating my thoughts, anyone is free to correct if I may have said something wrong, thanks.
@@muraddadasov8595 it mean you increase rent but you pay same debt
Simply, just strive to be cash-flow positive all the time
I know that it was an analogy to mean cutting back where possible, but for those who might take it literal: eating only pasta is not necessary to save...
I love how this is an actual conversation between these two men... Kevin is taking his time to look at the portfolio and make remarks, Graham is listening intently and giving his own explanations too.

Graham: I don’t raise rent.
O’Leary: Why not?
Me: Where do I sign up?!
This is a really smart move on Graham's part, especially since it looks like all his real estate properties look like family dwellings. My parents do the same thing with all their properties. This makes it so it is much easier to find good tenants that are generally there for the long-term and will take decent care of the property while they live there. A lot of times, the previous tenants will find new tenants for you when they move out and pass the lease on to someone they know so that you don't even have to do much legwork. By doing this, you'll never have to worry about months in between renters where you're basically losing 2-3k in rental income.
Much better to lose a little to avoid hard tenants
I like his thinking. He prefers long term reliable income over the stress of nickel and diming people and the hassle of always finding new tenants. Would you take a small financial hit to avoid significantly more stress and be able to focus on other things? I would
But keep in mind, you'd be locked in with a rent of ~$4000 for a 3 bedroom house in his real estate portfolio.

Even though their investments were smart, there's always a small chance that you have to pay off all of your loans in a down cycle but don't have the liquidity to do so.
You don’t raise rents?!
Kevin: and for that reason Im out.
I think that's the best part of his whole portfolio. He treats the people on the other side of the table with respect and recognizes the value they have as good tenants.
Lmao
Cuban - he's an idiot , he's a con artist😂
I have to agree with Kevin, your expenses as a landlord increase yearly (taxes, insurance, maintenance, etc) so the rent increase should reflect that. It doesn’t have to be a huge bump, but a set 2.5% annually at renewal, and if renter on a month-to-month, then 3% increase.
@@---cr8nw But your opinion literally invalidates the entire purpose of investment, which is to maximize profits. It's like people that ask, "Why don't corporations just make less money?" That's like asking an NBA team to limit the amount of points they put up in a game. Kevin made the right decision.
"Can you pay 3 million bucks?"
"Yes"
Me: "This $3 sandwich kinda expensive"
He said the same things when building that empire, and likely still does today. I also think that is an outrageous price for a sammich! Here’s to building our empires and eating pasta until we can afford steaks!
It costs 50 cent to add cheese toppings? Ok just lettuce and tomato please.
He finds $5 Starbuck coffee expensive too
NaN 89 5$ coffee should be a crime
@@user-em8fq2ev4b the thing people don't realize is that $5 here and there throughout the year add up really fast. Let's say for the sake of argument you got Starbucks once a day on your way to work for one year. You would have spent $1300 over the course of that one year just towards Starbucks. That money could have been invested instead to make you money or at the very least been used on something that will provide more utility than a quick expresso for some caffeine.
The rich stay rich because they don't spend their money frivolously. The poor stay poor because they do. You could be a millionaire and still end up broke if your not careful.
Graham: I sold my car to buy it
Mr. wonderful: I get it “with out a single flinch of emotion”
Billionaires acknowledge the sacrifice necessary to achieve what they've achieved. They aren't surprised by it and they aren't blind to it. To them it's the norm that you had to work 15 hours a day to build yourself up to millionaire status and it's the norm that you had to sell your car to get money for an investment.
@@brunomatassini9879 sacrifice such as somehow having enough cash on hand to buy hundreds of thousands of dollars of real estate at age 21... hmm everyone could totally do this
@@tonykirk8295 It's not "somehow" it's called working 12 hours a day since 16.
@@brunomatassini9879 there are plenty of people who do/have done that that are not now millionaires. he was smart and got rich off his investments - but the main separator from him and other people was having the cash on hand to invest at that level, not that he's a harder worker than anyone else.
@@tonykirk8295 Highly disagree, if it were easy everyone would be a millionaire. Having the money to invest isn't the hard part especially if you're working since 16 and not blowing your money on college. I made 10,000 in 3 months working a regular 40 hour job with overtime every once in a while at age 18. Imagine if I had started at 16 and kept the job until 21. Not sure why the "cash on hand" part is what's so difficult for you to grasp when it's actually the simplest aspect of how he started off.
Fantastic stuff. Shoutout to Graham for having hundreds of thousands in savings as a 20 year old and turning into millions. It’s horrifying to watch millennials blow money regardless of how much or little they have. Loved hearing Kevin’s feedback. Very detailed and honest, and Graham can choose how much or little of that advice to use.
Kevin's greatest attribute is honesty.
It's hard to find somebody that will tell you what you are doing wrong when you appear to be doing everything right.
So is Graham's. How many youtubers will show you how they've got their money invested? And how much?
Kevin has so much money that his sense of scale far exceeds what ours is. That meaning he doesn't need to compete with us so he can freely give advice as 99% of us won't even get close to stepping on his toes financially and it also helps to build his image. There's more profit in him helping smaller investors than it is to give them poor advice.
@Lyrical Terrorist My Dads mothers cousins daughter disagrees with you.
You can tell graham has never worn a suit and tie before😂
Not in a LONG time
@@GrahamStephan the knot was so loose I was like he looks like a kid in his dad's suits, or he's going to a Middle School Formal.
Kevin isn't wearing his suit and for that reason I'm out.
:P

🤣
Omg I love the background song is Clair the lune debussy ... kevin actually besides all the wealth that he made throughout the years sounds really humble ...way to go
"Can you pay down, 3 Million Bucks?"
Graham, 1 Nanosecond later
"YES!"
Can you imagine a public figure you look up to saying you've done a good job with your investments, 8 years later when you finally meet. That must feel amazing!
I was thinking this also 👍 Graham is killing it.
@@TRAVIS-WHITE agreed!
Kevin O’Leary: I don’t like debt anymore
Dave Ramsey: Lets be friends
Debt is a tool for many people that can help them grow their wealth. Too much debt is madness or having debt when you do not need it is madness.
@@bighands69, very well said. A monthly mortgage payment (on a 30 year fixed loan) is almost always cheaper than rent would be on the same property. But the big benefit is the equity gain. Could you buy a cash house for dirt cheap and then buy a bigger one down the road when you've saved up for it? Sure. But that adds a big layer of risk over buying a modest house at a good price, and at a good interest rate, and just staying in it.
@Kristof Alexy If there is hyper-inflation, don't expect stocks or bonds to protect your wealth. If it happens, the only thing that can are real assets, of which real estate is just one example. And the operative word there was 'can', not 'will'.
But there won't be hyper-inflation. It isn't caused by printing a lot of money, that has never happened. Not in Egypt, Rome, France, or Weimar. Hyper-inflation is caused by a nation losing a war, having massive losses of productive capacity, and governments being forced to take out large foreign debts denotated in currencies they don't control. And it has to happen in that order. As long as the federal debt is denotated in >90% Dollars (I believe it is 100% right now), there will be no more than 5% annual inflation.
Kevin O’Leary: But I understand debt and how it can be used to generate cashflow.
Dave Ramsey: Oh, nevermind.
@@rightwingsafetysquad9872, you're absolutely right about inflation risk. If you borrow 100k at 3.5% interest (like a mortgage), and inflation hits above 3.5% at any time in the next 30 years, you're literally making money in the form of equity just by spending someone else's money.
If the poopoo hits the fan... *ad* LOL Subliminal humor
“I don’t raise rents”
Best landlord in LA hands down
I mean, TECHNICALLY, I raise rents to keep up with rent control - BUT, I give a credit back for timely payments so their actual out of pocket doesn't go up. That way, they pay the same - I increase the rent control limits every year so I'm not left behind - and everyone wins.
Graham Stephan still great! I’m almost sure you don’t have issues with your tenants 👏🏽
A good man is not always a successful businesses man
I wish more landlords were as awesome as Graham! My landlord decided to raise my rent by 8% during the COVID lockdown.
@@jzen1455
8%? That's ridiculous! I just try to keep up with inflation. Where the heck did he pull 8% from? His a....
Kevin - "I must look cool talking to this kid".
Graham - " I must look professional"
hahahah exactly
Lol
It's crazy to know how big Graham's channel and himself has grown, first he started recording with his iPhone in an open house, fast forward a few years, to meeting Kevin O'Leary! Way to go Graham, ur such an inspiration ❤❤
thanks!!
@@GrahamStephan I agree with this statement. I feel you are and have been very wise with your money / investments. Real estate is a great place to invest. People always have to have a place to live. Starting out with the cash to purchase these investments, that you saved for years... putting off gratification in this instant gratification world. That says so much about your character and your determination. kudos!
This is the dopest video. Its like sitting and watching a father guide his son. Music helps it a lot.
“I don’t raise rents”
YOU DA REAL MVP!!!!
Poor Graham, in the end he was trying to impress Kevin and get a higher grade than last time (8.2) and Kevin actually lowers him to a 7 🤣
damn
Even went out of his way to buy a suit 🤣🤣.
@@tungstenrat3994 😂
@@tungstenrat3994 u know Graham either already had it for businesses meeting or he rented it or bought it for cheap Graham ain't about to buy an expensive suit just for 1 video.
@Alexa should have added the suit to the portfolio
😂
“Graham: I don’t raise rents.” “Kevin: Why??” “Because I have so much income coming from commercials on my videos.” “Kevin: ahh, genius.”
So the commercials subsidize the rent for his tenants. Not bad. . .
Now where can I find a landlord like that!? 🤣
he should probably still keep his rents raising to match inflation and property tax increases
I hear where Graham is coming from. I haven't raised rents on any of my tenants in years because I value their long-term commitment and contributions/enhancements to our units.
God bless you. Keep doing good
Kevins coming and I'm not gonna fanboy guys... Kevin comes, OMG loOK aT tHis pICture oF uS !
Wait until he sees Meet Kevin’s portfolio. The margins gonna give him a heart attack
Im out of the loop are they good or bad?
Zachary Jones hurts the heart
High or low? Wot? Wdym?
Kevin is heavily invested in just a few stocks ( lacks diversity) with a large margin which he is apparently trying to pay down now.
3 million on margain I believe. I about s**t a brick when he said that
"If the poopoo hits the fan."
I love that comment
"That's the biggest mistake you can make in your life is to worry about taxes. The fact that you need to worry about taxes is a wonderful thing.
It mean you're making money."
This is true - they are meant to be on top of what you are doing, not a heavy change of course pressure
My dad tells me this everytime I open my mouth about taxes.
Tap E to use your intelligence
@@krystal5887 why ?
I don't understand how people hate Kevin, he is the coolest guy and is very smart. I would love to talk to him someday.
Kevin O'Leary is amazing, One of my favorites on shark tank, and generally a great person when the cameras are off. You could say that for the majority of people on shark tank.
