People haven’t paid bills in years. Most have zero clue the true gravity of what’s happening
@
Bro these benchmarks are some straight up upper class stuff. No 30 year old has saved up 300k unless they got some mythical 6 figure job early on.
@
Why would I care about what others are doing? No one is going to take care of me if I don’t do it.
@
It appears in comments people dont like hearing smart saving is boring and long term..
@
Get into a Roth 401k where your money grows tax free since it is after tax investment.
@
The focus shouldn’t be on if you’re “behind.” It should be on if you have enough for your personal projected retirement lifestyle. Everyone is different and does not need the same amount of retirement income.

One of my stats professors used to repeat the mantra "class...how much confidence do we have in averages? Zero! If you want to have confidence, use a confidence interval."

3:16 you mean $550 billion right? Not $550 million
Edit: you'd need roughly 1800 "normal" people in the same room with Elon to have an average net worth of $550 million each. Crazy.
@
Grant at 3:30 it’s 550B, which again 550M is closer to 0 than 550B

Thanks Graham…for reminding me that my inability to afford my present state will ultimately mean I can’t afford my future. Sounds promising. Can’t wait
@
Thanks for assuring me what I already knew, I’m poor.

I knew to stop watching as soon as you mentioned the secret way people are becoming millionaires. So thank you for that.
