These AI openings are really going to help show your authenticity, and help you connect with a new audience as you pivot away from guy who walks to guy who gives dating and financial advice. 😉
Very good advice. Investing money should be looked at as a second income, and a person shouldn't dip into the account and reduce their second income. And , always live within your income level
People waste so much money trying to look wealthy, when the truth is, many truly wealthy people drive around in Hondas and Toyotas and don’t care about impressing anyone. I know a finance guy who works for a Mercedes dealer and he says more than half of his buyers have terrible credit.
You were right the first time when you said “useless degrees”.
the ai at the start of your video isn't you
1. Great thumbnail Kensters. 2 ive never had a good income but you make great points .
YOLO I say enjoy your life especially if you win 1 million dollars
Important subject!
Some people should have no access to money. I have a 68 year old friend that inherited more than $200k and spent it all in 6 months. It could have provided them an annuity or some other vehicle for income in old age but instead they went on cruises, had cosmetic procedures, spent wildly and there's no more windfalls coming their way.
Another former coworker did likewise. He earned more than $90k / year, received a $450k lump sum at retirement and is penniless today. He has to rent a trailer and has joked about robbing stores. It's the worst kind of self destructiveness to be bad with money. So it's not only about strategy or ability to earn but psychological health.
I made $32k last year, and I'm broke, but I buy unnecesaary things like books and beer.
I may not make enough money, but that's a great advice. I will find another job.
A great topic. 😎
"Our health is our wealth." Stay healthy so you can continue to work and to invest in yourself. I used to always tell my children to eat healthy, exercise and to stay in shape. If your body is in good shape you can wear a $10.00 dollar T-shirt and still look good. If you are out of shape you can wear a $100 shirt and still not look good.
Just going out to eat can break the bank! Cooking at home is a lot cheaper. Try to live below your means if you can.
Thanks !!
It’s very simple and it always has been compound interest is a king. Learn a trade you’ll never starve.
You can only push paper so much. In other words, don’t be afraid to work with your hands. Disciplined and some self-respect, you’ll do yourself a favor. Be patient.
AK: you are a wise young man.💚💚💚
Keep living your dreams wisely.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Many of us are watching you do so.❤❤❤
Great Information.
American people have been weaned on the idea of spending money just look at the commercials on TV radio newspapers no matter what you do even on YouTube it’s all to get you to spend money.
I’m 80 years old. I’ve seen the ups and downs of the economy. We’ll get through this be patient
Very useful tips AK!
Also I would suggest
1) Live a bit below your means, a simple lifestyle with a cheaper/smaller apartment. Don't live to work, work to live. So you can pay for your life expenses with a part time job or even one extra day a week off. Free time to spend on other things than work feels like a rich way of living to me. And this way you can save more money.
2) Set aside money on your savings account first thing when you get your paycheck and try to make it as large a percentage of your payout as possible. See if you can pay for your life expenses in the 30 days that you have to get the next paycheck. This works great as it motivates you to live simpler
You've given some very good advice.
It would be great to have a million dollars in my bank account
This was really interesting listening to you, thanks AK.👋
By the way they did teach about money in schools. It was called home economics .
They got rid of it like they got rid of shop class really smart.
It's very simple. Rich people make their money by owning, not earning.
Avoid relationships at all costs~ all my mates are broke & I'm cashed up! The difference is they are wasting money on useless circular dating ..
