- Financial independence is something we all strive to accomplish, regardless of our age or background. Especially in a world that’s constantly changing and evolving, there’s no better feeling than the idea of financial security for your family and your future. Frances Cook, author, journalist, and podcaster, is here today to show you exactly how you can achieve that future. As a journalist, podcaster, and self-proclaimed financial mess, Frances has made it her mission in life to meet people where they are and educate the public on the importance of financial independence and how everyday people can achieve it in their own lives. Having worked for RadioLIVE, Newstalk ZB, and the New Zealand Herald, Frances is also an accomplished author and currently MC’s the popular podcast ‘Cooking the Books’. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
I just sold a property in Portland and I'm thinking to put the cash in stocks, I know everyone is saying it's ripe enough, but Is this a good time to buy stocks? How long until a full recovery? How are other people in the same market raking in over $200k gains with months, I'm really just confused at this point
@user-in4cx6gh7b It all depends on how long you're willing to hold for, stocks might likely tank further, but making serious gains in this downtrend wouldn't be a problem if you're a pro.
@user-in4cx6gh7b Hi, please who is the expert assisting you and how do I reach out to them?
@user-in4cx6gh7b
Thanks, 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.
@@RichardWilliam-i4z Having a good financial planner is like having a mentor. I was losing my money trying to invest on my own but it was different withMARTHA ALONSO HARA. she has played a great role in improving my finances. Long before now, I relied solely on my work and salary. Right now, I have a way of making money without stress so I quit working for others. Honestly, investing isn’t a choice anymore but a MUST for anyone who wishes to gain access to a good and an independent life.
Real wealth is not about money. Real wealth is: not having to go to meetings, not having to spend time with jerks, not being locked into status games, not feeling like you have to say ‘yes,’ not worrying about others claiming your time and energy. Real wealth is about freedom.
All that is linked to money

Think Big, build intelligent plans, work towards them and stay positive,investing still remains the smartest way to prepare for the unexpected.
I have been investing consistently for 6 years and I am extremely pleased with the returns, for anyone whom what's to start.. it's never to late to begin
I tried investing on my own in the past, a few bucks on stock and also bought some cryptos, but I didn't make any profits, I will appreciate if you can share ideas on how I could achieve positive performance on my investments.
@@georgeoliver6370 Building intelligent plans and putting your needs above your wants is key to wealth creation and becoming successful, I suggest you seek a help of a financial advisor. For the record, working with one has been the best for my finances .
Success is not built on success . It's built on failure , It's built on fraustration . it's built on fear that you have to overcome . I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.
@@alfredhudson4798 Can you share more information, and a way to get in touch with your financial consultant?
When you understand that your self-worth is not determined by your net-worth, then you'll have financial freedom
Until you need to pay your bills

Couldn’t agree more. A clear healthy mind is the first step. Address your mental health issues people! It will allow you to make decisions from a better place which will yield better results
Great communication. I have opened my eyes to this fact during the lockdown with no options but to evaluate money growth. May be I didn't go all guns blazing, but I realise that money has the power to compound & needs to be respected. That a flashy car is only an opportunity for greedy car service companies to rip us off to repay royalty fees. That food tastes good at home & a job doesn't need to be travelled to... thank you for creating a wonderful perspective.
Great speech with a great message! Starting to look in this at 18 is overwhelming but I hope worth it...

Never overspending, savning up and investing am 28 and my wife is 26, i Think when we Are about 40 We Will be mayby not financial Independent , but more financial free Then now! And saving and investing and still Living a good life is like a sport for us! We Are not sacrifising nothing! 😏
Great video! the story is deffo really important! I get we can be scared to open up around stories.
“We are marinating in a culture that wants you to spend on things that you don’t need so other people can become rich” had to play that again! if that isn’t the truth! Very enlightening

Have you hear of the Great Reset?
Apparently by 2030 they want the world under one government
And no one owns anything and not allowed to eat meat etc
This is how it starts
If ppl choose to buy things they don’t Need how is it wrong
Ppl work and be Able to buy things they want especially if it makes them happy
All those unnecessary things we buy aren’t made by the company owner, they’re made by employees
Every single thing on a shelf is made by an employed person
Personally I think America should do away with public school system and federally fund Charter schools
Teach financial stability also and about credit
Kids have better education it leads to better jobs and less minorities in poverty
You better Own a Business... 😲
This is why I'm getting ready to sell anything and everything and the children and I are going to move into an RV

Bankruptcy is a legal process that individuals or businesses can undergo when they are unable to repay their debts. It provides a framework for financial relief and a fresh start. There are different types of bankruptcy, such as Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 in the United States, each with its own rules and implications. Bankruptcy can have long-term effects on one's credit and financial standing, so it's essential to carefully consider the decision and seek professional advice when facing overwhelming debt.
It's advisable to invest judiciously, keep a stop loss figure. Shuffle between debt and equity wherever the ratio goes too off your target. As for the target, I recommend a Ratio like this Debt % should be equal to your age in years. If you are 20, debt is 20%, reset in equity. If the market falls or rises drastically, your debt % will change, which you should rebalance to 20% and bring back equity to 80%. Thus you would have bought low or booked profit depending on if it was a crash or a bull run.
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.

The 4% rule no longer works due to high inflation. Considering inflation at 7%, your investments must be able to earn atleast 12% to sustain the expenses for the rest of your life. Passive index funds cannot generate 12% CAGR consistently.
I think it’s certainly an attractive concept and, as a young person, I’m all for it. But, I didn’t quite understand what the 25x rule would look like in your normal life, how do you scale rotating your budget cuts to get there?
Thank u
Please study-Rich Dad book. Thanks
great speech just ordered your book
25x my annual spending... Well over 1 million dollars? Honey, my wages in the US with a masters degree in my job I will not MAKE 1 million before I retire after 25 years unless something drastically changes. I already live deprived, wear thrift store clothes, drive a 10 year old used car, have no cable or TV, eat out twice a year, and use a 4 year old cell phone. My debt is my 2 bed/1 bath house, utilities, healthcare, insurance, professional fees and insurance, property taxes, car tags, gas for the car, food, medication, pet care (not willing to give up my pets), and student debt. Anyone else in this boat with me? 🙋♂️ We cannot be expected to get ahead if daily living costs so much.
My new plan is to trade the house for a small farm, grow my own food, and live off grid. Been practicing for years and was about to buy when the housing rush hit my town, and prices increased 20-40% on homes and land. 😤
😂 Just enjoy the speech. Nobody can become real “financial freedom” because of such lessons. If she’s financial freedom already in her age, do you think she will waste her time to “help” others. A big joke.
I’m so sorry to hear that. I listen to others who preach similar things to this lady and I think she’s quite focused on the math. There are real people with real, unpredictable lives behind this. I would recommend addressing any potential mental health difficulties to get you in a more positive space(I’m assuming from your comments that you’re not a very positive person). Once your mind is healthier and stronger you will have a different outlook. Good luck I’m sure you’ll figure things out and downsizing to a farm is a dream of my to be honest!

The thing about that is some jobs just can't be made interesting or meaningful, but are still necessary to the functioning of society. They also tend to be the kind of jobs that cause people to live hand to mouth. What about these people, like myself? It isn't that we are lazy or bad with money. But life happens in ways that don't fit the formula.
This is a problem primarily in the US. A McDonald's worker has a middle class wage, healthcare, fulltime hours, 3-5 weeks of mandatory vacation, and maternity/paternity leave in most countries in Europe.
If they are necessary for a functioning society they are definitely meaningful.
@@RedIria not in uk
Burger flippers from every company r on min wage n 0hr contracts
When iv been in belgium netherlands france spain and greece over last 30years, food prices have been comparible to uk food prices
So i cannot see how a middle class wage would b a sustainable successful business model.
The diff is we have better quality of life/our money goes further due to those socialist things the americans typically poo their pants over n call communism
@@kimwarburton8490 actually, I've read that a McDonald's employee in France or anywhere in Finno-Scandia , like the Netherlands, that they start out at already a living wage and the job itself is considered a good job that people don't look down on.
And I don't know how much the burgers cost, but McDonald's wouldn't be there if they weren't making more money than they were spending.
It's only in the US that the wage and conditions are so lacking that people even look down on ppl in the profession, despite those people trying to be society-contributing full-time workers.
@@RedIria ya can say the exact same about walmart vrs ASDA -same company, same owners. Its still minimum wage
but it is the conditions of the COUNTRY with more socialist values and infrastructure that make the difference, NOT the business
i.E. in uk, McDonalds has helped feed hungry children during the school holidays, whom usually are entitled to free school meals.
I doubt EITHER of those happen/ed in USA?
She’s right, say what you want about tiktok, they are a major player in helping many bring awareness to spending and money.
I’ve seen so many cpa, financial advisors, even stock enthusiasts it makes one think why the heck they never taught this in the public school system if they know how crucial time and compound interest are, was it gatekeeping? Idk
Good to comment on this and great advise.

Actually this is possible because of moneyprinting. If ordinary peoble make their life from stocks, its time to think twice aubout investing. It can go south for years especially after this long bull-run. Then you go back to your ex-employer and beg for mercy... Havent i seen this in 2000?
If money can make money, then why are we all working not to starve? I agree that work should be a fulfilling experience, but the way is UNIVERSAL RENT, not universal perpetuation of budgeting and financial clumsiness.

We don't like stories but we like effect stories, specially for financial stories
so true
✌
Please summarise this in simple language
it would be your revision !!!! you would easily be brushing up your knowledge
Money is a mental tool AKA not a tool. Your brain is a tool (among other things). Money is an artificial limiting factor.
who is out here buying index funds?
The financial institutions globally have made economic security a middle class dream for the last 4 decades, it serves there purpose, it's that simple.
If you had 25 x 60,000, invested at 4% you could retire ,,, really ?....

@@panjiauto-mobile8183 lucky you 🤣
What’s your better idea bruh?
to get to financial freedom for all, you just have to destroy capitalism, accumulation of capital and financiers as well as the monetary system.
It's called anarchism, where poeple also happen to live in a real democracy (writing and voting their own laws) and protecting the planet instead of destroying it (along with us)
