Save initial age

now everybody knows that it is never polite to talk about money in public and under no circumstances should you ever ask somebody how old they are so how much money do you have at your current age this is why I love YouTube because there are no consequences I mean other than your public reputation your sanity your well-being and your mental health but yeah this is anyway so today we're gonna talk about exactly how much your net worth should be at your current age and how much money you should have saved up by now and beyond it's an interesting question to think about and compare isn't it no just me okay let's begin hey you you are awesome good morning to you my name is andre dick and i've always been obsessed by money not in a greedy sell my soul kind of away but just obsessed with asking people how much they make and how they make it in an effort to understand how money works so that I can be better with it in fact I have this 100 dollar bill that I have framed sitting behind me in my bookshelf that I got paid when I used to perform cardistry here in Las Vegas on stage with a comedian by the name of amazing Johnathan he signed it I framed it put it behind me and we used to do this act where he would go onstage he would put his hands behind his back as an assistant would just block him from view there was a curtain behind him with slits and I would slide my hands right through the slits and he would just start to react as I'm doing cardistry just make it seem like these are his hands and I would do stuff like this and people would just look and be like wow Mason Johnson's been really practicing he's really good huh this is incredible people really took it seriously for a quick bit and then I would start to just produce a rose and slowly start to sensually touch him and just go lower and lower before you know it he's like whoa Andre what's going on and you would see two floating arms it was a hilarious bit I would come out on stage do some cardistry anyway this YouTube channel is kind of documenting my journey to understanding all of this money and investing it and how to manage it and that's the fun bit I'm going to share with you guys my net worth and age which you have guest to be anywhere between my mid 20s and to my mid 50s this is hilarious gotta love the internet but pro tip if you're ever out and about and you want to fish for compliments then just tell people your age casually bring it up but add 15 years to it I would say hum I'm 45 like really you're 45 you look so good for 45 Wow because if I tell them my real age which is 30 they just look at me like yeah what I could see it I'm sure that is not an original idea of mine but use it side effects may include laughter so when it comes to calculating your entire net worth first we're gonna do that by adding up all of your entire assets this includes your investment accounts that you keep in Charles Schwab or Robin Hood or wherever it is your retirement accounts your 401ks your HSA is your IRAs your home equity if you have any your valuables your jewelry your gold perhaps your car and maybe some cash if you have any of these laying around guys cash on cash mutual funds dividends IRAs Charles Schwab Robin Hood words that make me sound smarter than I actually am any excuse to do magic on this channel we're gonna do it live sorry for that little piece of hair sticking up I fixed it the second thing we're gonna do is add up all of your liabilities this includes your student loans your credit card debts your mortgage loans your car loans anything and everything where you owe money you're gonna add that number up and you're gonna subtract it from your assets and whatever number that is whether it's positive or negative that is your net worth and don't worry if your net worth is negative we're gonna cheer it up later but statistically speaking people in their 20s and even early 30s can have a negative net worth because they're oftentimes buying a new home buying a new car they're starting families they owe some money and as a result their net worth is negative so don't freak out if yours is negative they looked at the average net worth of a u.s. family and they found that in 2016 the average net worth was 692 thousand one hundred dollars which is so hard to believe because that same year they did the same study for a media networth which turned out to be 97 thousand three hundred dollars so a huge difference why is that well math is sometimes funny because on average both males and females have one testicle see averages now when we're looking at Gaussian data which is a bail distribution medians are more accurate averages are only more accurate if we're looking at data that has double exponential distribution obviously everybody knows that fun random fact of the day so for this one we're gonna use a median so your net worth at twenty years old should be zero dollars that's right if you have anything above zero dollars you're doing better than the average twenty year old but we want to be a lot better than the average twenty year old so here is my challenge to you as a 20 year old go get yourself an IRA or an individual retirement account it's not something I got myself until I was thirty years old but I wish I did it when I was twenty my circumstance has changed just this year which is when I contributed my max which is six thousand dollars you don't have to put in that much money you can just get yourself a free account with Weeble or m1 finance and contribute whatever you can and I promise that is gonna grow into a lot of money by the time you're my age so please get yourself one and if you want to go the extra mile and get extra credit then sign up to a brokerage like Weibo fund a one hundred dollar account and you'll get two free stocks pretty cool the next milestone is thirty that's my age and it's insane how low the median value is here compared to the average because the average net worth here is seventy six thousand two hundred dollars and that number is so skewed by the really wealthy thirty year olds that it's not an accurate way of looking at this data the mean however is and the mean net worth for thirty year olds is actually dollars more importantly though by 30 you should have an HSA account if your employer offers it should also have a 401k account which my parents didn't set up until they were in their mid-40s and I helped set that up for them and the last thing you should have is a credit score between 700 to 750 if you don't that's okay it's never too late to start building but start on that and you absolutely do not need to buy a house or you do not need to be married either also by 30 years old you should have at least smashed one subscribe button slash like button now is a great time to do that but also by 30 you should have saved at least one year's worth of your salary so for example for me when I was working in my 20s as a video editor as getting paid roughly fifty thousand dollars per year so by 30 I should have had at least 50 grand saved and invested somewhere which luckily I did and I did that by saving 50 percent of my income for five years and I invested it into this free Robin Hood brokerage account where I saved one hundred thirty thousand dollars and in the course of the last five years it's grown to almost two hundred thousand dollars which shows you the power of compound interest of saving and investing as early as possible so by thirty-five you should have twice your annual income saved and invested and by forty three times your annual income saved and invested somewhere now for me 50k per year times three I would need 150 by 40 now let's say you just turned 40 and you realize life and you're not happy with your job or your situation or your income well just know this statistically speaking you are within one thousand dollars of the most amount of money that you're going to earn from your current position unless something drastic changes like you change jobs or you get some major unforeseen promotion which usually doesn't happen I realized this at 26 years old that I hit my ceiling I wasn't gonna grow in that industry and I was like I gotta get out so at 28 I quit and I changed directions to try to grow in a new industry where I thought I could have maybe more potential so again if you're in your 30s and you're not happy please consider changing directions now because after 35 it becomes significantly harder to leave your job and your 50s you should have four to six times your annual income saved and invested somewhere and around this age is when compound interest takes over and it starts to grow your money faster than you're able to contribute to it so for example if you have half a million dollars invested somewhere and it's growing at just 10% that 10% represents $50,000 per year and most people cannot contribute 50k per year so this phenomena starts around this age and also the median net worth here is 124 thousand dollars while the average is 727 thousand dollars that is not accurate the median is more accurate and by your 60s and well into retirement you should have eight to ten times your annual income saved and invested for me that's half a million dollars invested at around four percent to generate twenty thousand dollars per year right now I'm at around seven thousand dollars per year from my portfolio which is not quite there but I'm well on my way if you want to know your magic number just take your annual spending and then multiply it by 25 and that's how much money you need invested at at least four percent to support you in retirement that's the rule of 25 it's a really cool thing now I tell people to aim for a 50 percent savings rate where most institutions will ask for just 15 percent which is still good but if you're watching my channel 50 percent is what I want you to aim for so set this new year's resolution for 2020 today I want you to go for 50 brofist wait that's PewDiePie's thing smash the like button that's every other youtubers thing chest bump I don't know I am wearing pants though but before you aim for that 50% savings rate the first thing I want you to do is at least get yourself a job that pays you know less than $50,000 per year otherwise it's gonna be extremely difficult but you do not need a degree to get yourself a job that pays you 25 an hour or 50k per year I'm living proof of that but it's our net worth really that important not really what's more important is learning how to live and be happy with less money you can do that that's an extremely important skill to master in life focus on the biggest wins first rather than focusing on saving first get that job that pays you a lot even if you hate it even if you can barely tolerate it because you're going to use it as fuel to motivate you to start that side business or that YouTube channel that you always wanted to do and that I should have done while I had my job while I had it because that job you have right now is not gonna last you for the rest of your life once you've got there then focus on cutting back expenses and then use the surplus on that money to invest that or pay down your debt if you're not sure how to invest just invest it on what you're guaranteed to rate a return on that's things like your mortgage your student loans your credit card debts anything where you owe money is going to give you the same rate of return as the interest rate on your loans so set some goals for 2020 follow through and if we succeed we're gonna succeed together and if we fail we're gonna fail together too love you guys enjoy your weekend and I'll see you soon bye [Music] [Music]
