0:00:15.920 --> 0:00:19.680
<v Speaker 1>some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President

0:00:19.720 --> 0:00:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States

0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border

0:00:28.160 --> 0:00:31.680
<v Speaker 1>crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over

0:00:31.760 --> 0:00:34.960
<v Speaker 1>one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you

0:00:35.040 --> 0:00:38.920
<v Speaker 1>are here illegally, your next you will be fined nearly

0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:43.000
<v Speaker 1>one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You will

0:00:43.040 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 1>never return. But if you register using our CBP home

0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 1>app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.

0:00:50.479 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:57.840
<v Speaker 1>border and families will be protected.

<v Speaker 2>Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 3>Budgeting.

0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 4>I think it's budgeting is extremely underrated when it comes

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 4>to financial planning for individuals. I always say, like, if

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:09.480
<v Speaker 4>you look at a corporation, budgeting is like the major

0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:11.000
<v Speaker 4>thing that they do like you. I mean, like Apple

0:01:11.120 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 4>knows every dollar that comes in and comes out, Like

0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:16.480
<v Speaker 4>they pay accountants millions of dollars. They have a whole

0:01:16.480 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 4>team of accountant to keep track of the books. And

0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 4>budgeting is like that's everything. Budgeting is everything. But it's

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 4>like most entrepreneurs and most regular people that just have

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 4>jobs have no idea of the budget, Like they don't

0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 4>have any idea of how much money comes in, they

0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 4>have no idea of how much money goes out. They're

0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:35.200
<v Speaker 4>just wringing it and just you know, spending money whenever

0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:38.200
<v Speaker 4>you know they need to, and the money comes in

0:01:38.240 --> 0:01:39.840
<v Speaker 4>and it just goes to their bank. And that's kind

0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 4>of like how most people run not only their business

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 4>but their life. So budgeting, budgeting one oh one right

0:01:45.920 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 4>for somebody that has never budgeted before, but they first

0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:53.760
<v Speaker 4>and foremost why why is budgeting essential? And then we'll

0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:55.919
<v Speaker 4>go into like some different hacks that can help people

0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 4>to get better with budgeting.

0:01:58.160 --> 0:02:01.360
<v Speaker 5>So budgeting is a sense of because it is a

0:02:01.400 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 5>physical picture of what your money is doing. Right, So

0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:08.120
<v Speaker 5>if you have kids and you're in the other room

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:10.079
<v Speaker 5>and your two year old is quiet, You're like, wait,

0:02:11.000 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 5>what the hell are they breaking because you know they're

0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 5>cutting up, putting a you know, putting a knife enough

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:18.800
<v Speaker 5>in the socket whatever, you know. And so it's the

0:02:18.800 --> 0:02:21.360
<v Speaker 5>same thing with your money. Like you you have to

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:22.560
<v Speaker 5>be on top of your money. I would say, like

0:02:22.560 --> 0:02:24.520
<v Speaker 5>your money is like a bad two year old, Like,

0:02:24.560 --> 0:02:26.640
<v Speaker 5>if you leave it to its own devices, it's gonna

0:02:26.639 --> 0:02:31.720
<v Speaker 5>be breaking shit that I can curse. Yeah, right, So

0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:33.360
<v Speaker 5>you want to be on it when it comes to

0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 5>your money and be present. You are the adult. You

0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:38.920
<v Speaker 5>decide what your money does. And so that's what a

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:41.040
<v Speaker 5>budget allows you to do. And it allows you to

0:02:41.120 --> 0:02:43.960
<v Speaker 5>be the adult of you of your life. And so

0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 5>it's important. You know, I don't care how much money

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:49.640
<v Speaker 5>you make, you can outspend like great wealth. There are

0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 5>people who have been millionaires and even billionaires and have

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 5>been less penniless. So I think sometimes people think, like, well,

0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.960
<v Speaker 5>if I had ten million dollars, was like mc hammer

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:03.440
<v Speaker 5>from somebody, You're like, who's that? Okay, Tody Braxton, right,

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:08.000
<v Speaker 5>Alan Iverson. So many people have outspent their wealth. It

0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:09.360
<v Speaker 5>is more than possible.

0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:12.800
<v Speaker 4>So what kind of all right, so what are the

0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 4>different strategies for budgeting?

0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:14.359
<v Speaker 5>Right?

0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:16.600
<v Speaker 4>Like it's someone okay, I realize the budgeting is important.

0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:17.920
<v Speaker 4>I want to do it. So how do I go

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 4>about it? Is it spreadsheet software? Like is there formulas

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.360
<v Speaker 4>that you should use? Because some people say, like your

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.880
<v Speaker 4>housing should only be like twenty or thirty percent of

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:30.079
<v Speaker 4>your total budget. So yeah, what's your what's your philosophy?

0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:31.919
<v Speaker 4>As far as like the one on one, the person

0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 4>realizes they need to budget now they actually want to

0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:35.600
<v Speaker 4>start a budget.

0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.320
<v Speaker 5>So let's just start super super easy, because I mean, yes,

0:03:38.360 --> 0:03:39.720
<v Speaker 5>I use this spride seat all that stuff, but most

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:41.320
<v Speaker 5>people are not going to do that to start. It's

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 5>the difference between I want to lose some weight and

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:45.960
<v Speaker 5>so tomorrow, like you're gonna run you know, ten miles,

0:03:46.000 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 5>You're not gonna run ten mouse. You might the first day,

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:49.600
<v Speaker 5>and the second day you're going to go back to

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:52.760
<v Speaker 5>the couch. So I want you to start off walking.

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:55.560
<v Speaker 5>So for someone who's like I don't budget, I never

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:59.040
<v Speaker 5>took to a budget. First things first is start with

0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 5>having separate bank accounts, right, So I believe in having

0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 5>a bill's account to pay your bills and having a

0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:09.960
<v Speaker 5>spend account to spend from your bills account. Should not

0:04:10.040 --> 0:04:12.440
<v Speaker 5>have a debit card attached to it that's a debit

0:04:12.440 --> 0:04:14.080
<v Speaker 5>card is a choice. I don't think people realize that

0:04:14.120 --> 0:04:16.040
<v Speaker 5>the bank issues you a debit card. But you could

0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:18.680
<v Speaker 5>be like, nah, I'm good. So my bill's account does

0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:21.200
<v Speaker 5>not have a debit card. My spend account, it's both.

0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.400
<v Speaker 5>These are checking accounts that the same bank has a

0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:25.720
<v Speaker 5>debit card. And then you want to least one savings

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.159
<v Speaker 5>account not at that bank. So you want to at

0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.880
<v Speaker 5>least one safets account at an online only bank. And

0:04:30.960 --> 0:04:33.520
<v Speaker 5>so what it looks like is that your money comes in.

0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 5>Some of it goes into your I like to call

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:40.280
<v Speaker 5>it my deposit account, slash your spend account, so that's

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.720
<v Speaker 5>where your money lands. Some of it goes into your

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:44.680
<v Speaker 5>bills account to pay bills, and you know how much

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:47.120
<v Speaker 5>to go into your bills account by what bills are due.

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 5>And then some of it goes into your savings. So

0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:52.080
<v Speaker 5>in the beginning you're not going to have the math perfect.

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:53.800
<v Speaker 5>You might just be like, I don't care if ten

0:04:53.839 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 5>dollars goes into your savings. When I was at my brocus,

0:04:56.600 --> 0:05:00.400
<v Speaker 5>I was literally transferring two dollars. You know, just contin

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:03.479
<v Speaker 5>just to have the habit of savings. You never you

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:05.240
<v Speaker 5>never want to get out of the habit of putting

0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:08.640
<v Speaker 5>something away in your savings account. That's important. So what

0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:10.440
<v Speaker 5>I did for my husband, for example, he's not gonna

0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:12.479
<v Speaker 5>sit down and spreadsheet. That's just not happening. He's like,

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 5>what breaks city, dope? So we do instead? Now, is

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:20.720
<v Speaker 5>we budget for him anywhere? Because I like the spreadsheet.

0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.599
<v Speaker 5>We budget before his money even gets there, I said, Babe,

0:05:23.600 --> 0:05:26.400
<v Speaker 5>go to HR. Here's what you're gonna tell them. Hey,

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.280
<v Speaker 5>before you give me my money. Some of it goes

0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:33.160
<v Speaker 5>into his retirement account check, some of it goes into

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 5>his into his spend account. That the deposit account where

0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:39.200
<v Speaker 5>things are depositives right, check by his direct deposit account, right.

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.800
<v Speaker 5>Some of it goes into our joint bill's account check,

0:05:42.240 --> 0:05:45.440
<v Speaker 5>some goes into his personal savings check, and some goes

0:05:45.440 --> 0:05:49.479
<v Speaker 5>into our joint savings. So he basically his budget is

0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:54.000
<v Speaker 5>done automatically through HR, so it lands and all he

0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:55.920
<v Speaker 5>has to think about is when it comes to his

0:05:55.960 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 5>personal savings, whatever you want to do to that, that's

0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 5>your business, as tabit. That would saying the vegan begon

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.239
<v Speaker 5>chef that ready loves right now, and that's your business,

0:06:02.760 --> 0:06:05.640
<v Speaker 5>right and all he has to worry about too, it's

0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:08.359
<v Speaker 5>his basically his allowance in his deposit account, in his

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 5>spending account. So whatever's in his spending account. If I

0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:13.440
<v Speaker 5>see my husband with some new JS on. Back in

0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 5>the day, I used to be like, oh, that's what

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:18.720
<v Speaker 5>we're doing. I enjoyers with the bread money. Now it's

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:22.280
<v Speaker 5>no more right because I know one thing. He didn't

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 5>take it from the bills account. He didn't take it

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:26.080
<v Speaker 5>from our joint savings. So if he took it from

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:31.000
<v Speaker 5>his personal savings or his spending account, that's fine. And

0:06:31.040 --> 0:06:32.600
<v Speaker 5>so like if you don't know how to do anything else,

0:06:32.640 --> 0:06:35.960
<v Speaker 5>if you just have at least those three accounts and

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:38.880
<v Speaker 5>have your money automatically split from well really four because

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:40.600
<v Speaker 5>you want to have a retirement account and have your

0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:44.240
<v Speaker 5>money split from work, then you will be ahead of

0:06:44.240 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 5>the game. And so for people who want to go

0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.640
<v Speaker 5>a little bit deeper. For me, you know, like I,

0:06:48.760 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 5>like I said, I like to have spread to you.

0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:52.680
<v Speaker 5>I like to know how much we're spending on on

0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.359
<v Speaker 5>on groceries, how much we're spending on gas, So I

0:06:55.440 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 5>keep track of that. I just the tool I like

0:06:57.360 --> 0:06:59.320
<v Speaker 5>to use message, just excel, So I like to keep

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:01.520
<v Speaker 5>track of that. There, but you don't necessarily have to.

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.840
<v Speaker 5>You set aside a you know, an allowance for yourself.

0:07:05.520 --> 0:07:08.160
<v Speaker 5>Typically things are led by bills. So if ideally you

0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:10.840
<v Speaker 5>want to be setting aside twelve to fifteen percent for

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 5>your retirement, and you probably are saying like, I can't

0:07:13.000 --> 0:07:15.600
<v Speaker 5>afford to lose twelve to fifteen percent of my pay,

0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 5>or to start with one percent, and every six months

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:20.080
<v Speaker 5>you boosted up, start with a half percent, and every

0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:22.840
<v Speaker 5>six months you boosted up, start with something towards retirement.

0:07:23.480 --> 0:07:25.800
<v Speaker 5>And then your bills. I like to do bills every

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.440
<v Speaker 5>two weeks, so the money I have transferred to the

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 5>bills account, you ask yourself, okay, how much are my

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:33.720
<v Speaker 5>bills from the first to the fifteenth, and how much

0:07:33.760 --> 0:07:35.800
<v Speaker 5>are my bills from the fifteen to the thirtieth, And

0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 5>that's how you know how much to be going into

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.000
<v Speaker 5>the bill's account. You know, so it might be or

0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.040
<v Speaker 5>you might just have a select number. You might say, well,

0:07:43.120 --> 0:07:46.160
<v Speaker 5>my bills are around three thousand dollars a month, so

0:07:46.200 --> 0:07:49.800
<v Speaker 5>every paycheck or every pay period, my bi weekly or

0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.080
<v Speaker 5>my bi monthly pay period, fifteen hundred dollars is going

0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 5>to go into my bill's account. And having your bills account,

0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:58.000
<v Speaker 5>paid bills automatically for you is really going to be

0:07:58.160 --> 0:08:01.800
<v Speaker 5>like clutch, Like I don't pay bills, bills pay themselves,

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:03.640
<v Speaker 5>so it lands on my bill's account and then dark

0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 5>my bills already know I pay my pay the electric bill,

0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:10.480
<v Speaker 5>pay the water bill, pay these bills for me automatically,

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.240
<v Speaker 5>and like I said, what's left in mind, spend account

0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.600
<v Speaker 5>is attached to my debtit card and I can spend

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 5>and when that money is done, so on mine. What's

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:22.320
<v Speaker 5>really important too about a budget is is the savings account.

0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:24.640
<v Speaker 5>I don't want you to save at your regular bank

0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:27.280
<v Speaker 5>because it makes it easy to transfer. We've all been

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:30.520
<v Speaker 5>there at Target right and been like, oh man, like

0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:33.160
<v Speaker 5>I really want whatever this thing is, this bleunder this dress,

0:08:33.240 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 5>this shirt, and you look at check in. You know

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:37.400
<v Speaker 5>Daril William got no money and check in, but you

0:08:37.400 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 5>know who got money there, savings, And then you're in

0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:43.080
<v Speaker 5>line making that transfer, like happy about it to like

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.320
<v Speaker 5>making a transfer even though you're like that was supposed

0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:47.440
<v Speaker 5>to be for powers. You're like pass, can wait, tease

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:50.360
<v Speaker 5>your care make that transfer and you're like dang. Later

0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:52.280
<v Speaker 5>you're like this, why I don't never go nowhere because

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 5>I'm always at Target to buy a toilet tissue and

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:55.960
<v Speaker 5>then I leave but three hundred dollars worth of stuff.

0:08:56.480 --> 0:08:59.680
<v Speaker 5>If you put your savings in an online only savings account, though,

0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.680
<v Speaker 5>then you're gonna have to wait at least twenty four

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:06.600
<v Speaker 5>to seventy two hours for your savings at your online

0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:10.079
<v Speaker 5>only savings account to transfer back to your checking to

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:13.679
<v Speaker 5>your spend account. And so what that means is it

0:09:13.679 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 5>makes your money inconvenient, and inconvenient money get saved. So

0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:20.000
<v Speaker 5>I like this website called magnify money dot com to

0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.480
<v Speaker 5>look for an online only savings account because they grade

0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.240
<v Speaker 5>savings accounts from A to F. So you're gonna look

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 5>for an a account that's one. Two, you're gonna look

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:32.120
<v Speaker 5>for an account that's FDIC insured that's two. Three, You're

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:33.840
<v Speaker 5>gonna look for an account that's gonna give the highest

0:09:33.840 --> 0:09:36.440
<v Speaker 5>interest rate because your big bank is not gonna give

0:09:36.440 --> 0:09:39.160
<v Speaker 5>you much of an interest rate. So online only savings

0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:41.880
<v Speaker 5>accounts don't have as much overhead, so they pass that

0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 5>on to you and you earn a higher interest. And

0:09:44.520 --> 0:09:47.080
<v Speaker 5>then for you're going to look for a bank that

0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:50.839
<v Speaker 5>has low deposit requirement. So that means in order to

0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:53.080
<v Speaker 5>open up the bank account. Maybe you have to you

0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:55.120
<v Speaker 5>have to put in a dollar and also too in

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:58.040
<v Speaker 5>order to maintain and get that interest. You don't want

0:09:58.080 --> 0:09:59.720
<v Speaker 5>them to say you have to have ten thousand dollars

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:01.400
<v Speaker 5>in the make account in order for you to earn

0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 5>the interests that they've advertised. So those are the four

0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 5>components you're going to look for in your online safe account.

0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:09.440
<v Speaker 5>So I hate to say like, oh, twenty percent here,

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:13.720
<v Speaker 5>thirty percent there, unless you have an irregular income. You

0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:16.800
<v Speaker 5>don't have to live by percentages. You would live by amounts.

0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:20.360
<v Speaker 5>So one hundred dollars here, three hundred dollars there, four

0:10:20.440 --> 0:10:22.600
<v Speaker 5>hundred dollars here, that's what you're That's the split that

0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:25.200
<v Speaker 5>you should be doing regularly every month. If your money

0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:28.520
<v Speaker 5>it fluctuates because you have an irregular income, then you

0:10:28.880 --> 0:10:31.920
<v Speaker 5>might say, you know, forty percent goes into my bills.

0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:36.200
<v Speaker 5>You know five percent goes into spending. But you have

0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 5>to work backwards, like how much are your bills Unless

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:40.920
<v Speaker 5>you're starting from scratching your twenty one you're just moving

0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:43.360
<v Speaker 5>out that you can force your bills to fit within

0:10:43.640 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 5>that percentage. But it's easy for people to say, oh

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.720
<v Speaker 5>seventy thirty Yeah, but like, so, what are your bills

0:10:48.720 --> 0:10:50.600
<v Speaker 5>actually though your bills might be seventy percent of your

0:10:50.600 --> 0:10:53.680
<v Speaker 5>income right now, you know, so that's so you have

0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:55.959
<v Speaker 5>to pay your bills and you're I'm not worried about

0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:58.320
<v Speaker 5>the percentage, just now, like how much you actually need

0:10:58.360 --> 0:11:01.000
<v Speaker 5>to pay bills? Put that in the bills accoun Okay,

0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:03.360
<v Speaker 5>how much ideally do you want to save once those

0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:05.040
<v Speaker 5>bills are paid? I want to save one hundred dollars

0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:07.360
<v Speaker 5>a month, So make that a bill. Now that one

0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:09.760
<v Speaker 5>hundred dollars a month is automatically put into that savings

0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:12.600
<v Speaker 5>account directly from your job. And then what's left over,

0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:14.559
<v Speaker 5>like I said, is your spending money. You know, you

0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:16.600
<v Speaker 5>might tell yourself, I'm going to give myself fifty dollars

0:11:17.240 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 5>every two weeks for spending. Okay, great, and for whatever reason,

0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:23.600
<v Speaker 5>if there's not enough money, then you take care of bills.

0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:25.480
<v Speaker 5>You say, I guess I can't save this month, and

0:11:25.520 --> 0:11:29.520
<v Speaker 5>I guess I can't. I don't spending money this month

0:11:29.559 --> 0:11:31.520
<v Speaker 5>for like, you know, spending money for things that are

0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:34.760
<v Speaker 5>like you know, like hair nails, grooming, this and that.

0:11:34.880 --> 0:11:37.120
<v Speaker 5>You know, so sometimes you don't have it, and that's okay.

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:39.160
<v Speaker 5>So there are times when I didn't have it, but

0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:41.520
<v Speaker 5>I had to pay bills, and even sometimes I didn't

0:11:41.520 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 5>have enough for bills and I had to say, well,

0:11:42.960 --> 0:11:45.200
<v Speaker 5>I have to pay my noodle budget bills, my essential bills.

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.720
<v Speaker 5>Verizon can wait. Rising is not going to shoot you

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.400
<v Speaker 5>if you don't pay. Yes, we'll affect your credit score,

0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:53.280
<v Speaker 5>but credit scores are things that you can you can

0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:56.360
<v Speaker 5>you can increase later. I much rather you take care

0:11:56.400 --> 0:11:57.719
<v Speaker 5>of things that are going to make you happy, I

0:11:57.760 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 5>mean healthy and safe.

0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:02.079
<v Speaker 2>I was just thinking about that because one of the things,

0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:05.320
<v Speaker 2>the powerful things you talk about is identifying ifs, Like

0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.520
<v Speaker 2>we can have anything we want if we just identify

0:12:07.559 --> 0:12:10.440
<v Speaker 2>our ifs in control them so that we can budget.

0:12:10.520 --> 0:12:10.640
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.680
<v Speaker 2>So if I want to say four hundred dollars, maybe

0:12:13.840 --> 0:12:17.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't go to the barbershop twice a week. Right,

0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.040
<v Speaker 2>So can you talk about the your points of identifying

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:21.120
<v Speaker 2>the ifs and how they can translate to having more

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:21.960
<v Speaker 2>money in your budget?

0:12:22.520 --> 0:12:24.680
<v Speaker 5>Absolutely, there are four questions you should ask yourself before

0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.600
<v Speaker 5>you spend any money. Do I need it? Do I

0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:30.120
<v Speaker 5>love it? Do I like it? Do I want it?

0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:32.800
<v Speaker 5>Need it? Love it like it? Want it, need it,

0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:36.960
<v Speaker 5>love it like it? What you need to switch on right.

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.080
<v Speaker 5>So your needs come first. That's food, cholter, clothing, water,

0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:43.440
<v Speaker 5>the absolute necessities you must have to stay healthy and safe.

0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:45.560
<v Speaker 5>You pay for those first. Most of us are here

0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 5>to that. That's why you're alive. Then your loves are

0:12:49.480 --> 0:12:52.600
<v Speaker 5>those things that enhance your life. What are things five

0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:56.480
<v Speaker 5>ten years from now that's still our value even though

0:12:56.520 --> 0:12:58.640
<v Speaker 5>that thing might not be there right. So if you

0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:00.679
<v Speaker 5>had Oprah's bank account, I tell people what would you

0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:02.640
<v Speaker 5>do or do more of? So a lot of people

0:13:02.679 --> 0:13:04.960
<v Speaker 5>say travel, maybe they'd start a business, maybe they go

0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:08.160
<v Speaker 5>back to school, maybe the philanthropy, whatever that is. So

0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:10.480
<v Speaker 5>those are your loves. Those are things that give you

0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:14.000
<v Speaker 5>long term joy, even when that thing is not physically

0:13:14.040 --> 0:13:17.840
<v Speaker 5>there right. And then your likes are short term joy.

0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 5>So you know that's your target, run, that's your that's

0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:24.480
<v Speaker 5>that dress that you're like, oh, this is super cute.

0:13:25.280 --> 0:13:27.480
<v Speaker 5>You know that might be I don't know, eating out

0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:29.080
<v Speaker 5>with friends or eating out with friends might be a

0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:31.199
<v Speaker 5>love because you might be like, yo, I'm such a foodie.

0:13:31.240 --> 0:13:34.120
<v Speaker 5>Five years from now, I'm remembering that restaurant. So there's

0:13:34.160 --> 0:13:36.360
<v Speaker 5>no judgment, you get to decide, But likes our short

0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:39.120
<v Speaker 5>term joy. And wants are just things to get. I

0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.520
<v Speaker 5>really try to stay away from just frivolous spending, which

0:13:41.600 --> 0:13:43.800
<v Speaker 5>is what wants are. It doesn't mean I never do it,

0:13:44.160 --> 0:13:46.160
<v Speaker 5>but it doesn't make sense to trick up your money

0:13:46.160 --> 0:13:49.440
<v Speaker 5>and wants when you can have more things for loves

0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.440
<v Speaker 5>and your needs. And so what I try to do

0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:54.200
<v Speaker 5>is so I try to live in the second half,

0:13:54.320 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 5>the first half of life, my needs and my loves,

0:13:56.679 --> 0:14:01.199
<v Speaker 5>because that's an enriched, fulfilled life. I'm not really a foodie,

0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:05.679
<v Speaker 5>although my belly would to just otherwise, but I'm not

0:14:05.720 --> 0:14:08.080
<v Speaker 5>really a foodie. But I used to go eat brunch

0:14:08.240 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 5>every weekend with my friends and then one day I

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:11.240
<v Speaker 5>was like, why thew am I going to bunch. I

0:14:11.240 --> 0:14:13.560
<v Speaker 5>have not been on vacation in like two years, so

0:14:13.640 --> 0:14:16.560
<v Speaker 5>I stopped going. They're likeyos Hilly, You're so cheap, right,

0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:18.000
<v Speaker 5>And I'm like, I'm not cheap. It's just that, like,

0:14:18.040 --> 0:14:19.520
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to spend my money on bunch anymore.

0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:22.480
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to spend thirty dollars a week eating brunch,

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:24.360
<v Speaker 5>And so I started saving my brunch money that I

0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:25.880
<v Speaker 5>made it a game every time they asked me to

0:14:25.880 --> 0:14:27.760
<v Speaker 5>go to brunch, I would put I would transfer thirty

0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:30.280
<v Speaker 5>dollars to my savings account, and then within a few

0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:32.320
<v Speaker 5>months I had enough money. I went for my first

0:14:32.320 --> 0:14:35.880
<v Speaker 5>solo travel trip. I went to Albuquerque, New Mexico because

0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:37.640
<v Speaker 5>I had on my bucket list I wanted to ride

0:14:37.640 --> 0:14:40.480
<v Speaker 5>in a hot air balloon. In Albuquerque, New Mexico's the

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:42.760
<v Speaker 5>high air bloon capital of the world. Who knew? Now

0:14:42.800 --> 0:14:45.840
<v Speaker 5>you do yes, right? And so I was like, okay.

0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:49.480
<v Speaker 5>So I remember my friend called me Tijana. She was like, hey, girl,

0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:51.360

0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:53.600
<v Speaker 5>I know you and yo cheap behind you ain't going.

0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:55.640
<v Speaker 5>I was like, cause I was like slight flex, well,

0:14:55.680 --> 0:14:58.160
<v Speaker 5>actually major flex. I was like, ooh girl, I'm about

0:14:58.160 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 5>to get in a hot air balloon. The captain said,

0:14:59.920 --> 0:15:01.400
<v Speaker 5>I turn off my phone. Can I call you later?

0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:04.120
<v Speaker 5>She was like, I had an air Ballottle and Newer.

0:15:04.200 --> 0:15:07.640
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, no, girl, New Mexico. That's when I do

0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:12.440
<v Speaker 5>with my brunch money. Mike drop. Okay, So now don't

0:15:12.440 --> 0:15:15.120
<v Speaker 5>I stop telling my friends. I don't say I don't say.

0:15:14.960 --> 0:15:15.480
<v Speaker 3>No to brunch.

0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:17.880
<v Speaker 5>I'll tell them like, ah Na, girl, I can't go

0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:20.360
<v Speaker 5>right now, because I'm saying yes to Paris, I'm saying

0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:23.240
<v Speaker 5>yes to Istanbul, I'm saying yes to Santorina. These are

0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:26.000
<v Speaker 5>places I've been. I'm saying yes to Morocco. And so

0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:28.680
<v Speaker 5>I started to decide for myself what my needs and

0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 5>my loves were. So I'm not against spending money. I'm

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:33.960
<v Speaker 5>against spending money on things that don't matter to you.

0:15:34.200 --> 0:15:37.720
<v Speaker 5>Prioritize what your more is, like some of us are

0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:41.720
<v Speaker 5>spending our whole life spending money on someone else's idea

0:15:41.760 --> 0:15:44.960
<v Speaker 5>of more. Tajuanta is a foodie, not me. That's her more,

0:15:45.360 --> 0:15:47.760
<v Speaker 5>that's less for me. You know, let her eat out

0:15:47.800 --> 0:15:49.280
<v Speaker 5>with another food if she can come to my house

0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:51.320
<v Speaker 5>and chill out for free. And so that's really how

0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:54.200
<v Speaker 5>you start to prioritize, just to ask yourself, like what

0:15:54.240 --> 0:15:57.040
<v Speaker 5>does more of a life truly mean? You know, for me,

0:15:57.560 --> 0:15:59.520
<v Speaker 5>I don't want any You know, your spending should be

0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:02.120
<v Speaker 5>reflected of your values and how you want your life

0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:02.320
<v Speaker 5>to go.

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.760

<v Speaker 6>Coach, the energy out there felt different. What changed for

0:17:59.480 --> 0:18:00.200
<v Speaker 6>the team today?

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:02.399
<v Speaker 7>It was a new game day scratches from the California

0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:03.880
<v Speaker 7>Lottery players everything.

0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.160
<v Speaker 3>Those games sent the team's energy through the roof.

0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:08.199
<v Speaker 6>Are you saying it was the off field play that

0:18:08.280 --> 0:18:09.399
<v Speaker 6>made the difference on the field.

0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:12.200
<v Speaker 7>Hey, little play makes your day, and today it made

0:18:12.240 --> 0:18:12.639
<v Speaker 7>the game.

0:18:13.119 --> 0:18:15.440
<v Speaker 3>That's all for now, Coach, one more question.

0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:18.159
<v Speaker 8>Play than you Los Angeles Chargers, San Francisco forty nine

0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:21.280
<v Speaker 8>Ers and Los Angeles ram scratchers from the California Lottery.

0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:24.520
<v Speaker 8>A little play can make your day. Peace made responsibily.

0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:26.119
<v Speaker 8>Must be eighteen years or older to purchase plate or

0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:26.960
<v Speaker 8>claim my savings.

0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:28.600
<v Speaker 4>That was a good point, I tell people all the time,

0:18:28.640 --> 0:18:30.200
<v Speaker 4>like you got to treat your savings like a bill,

0:18:30.800 --> 0:18:32.879
<v Speaker 4>like how you have your bill, your car bill, Like

0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:34.600
<v Speaker 4>you can't afford to not pay your car bill. You

0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:37.199
<v Speaker 4>can't afford to not pay your cell phone bill. So savings,

0:18:37.200 --> 0:18:38.879
<v Speaker 4>like you said, no matter how much it is, it

0:18:38.920 --> 0:18:41.120
<v Speaker 4>should be a line item in a bill, I think,

0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:42.359
<v Speaker 4>but I wanted touch on.

0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:43.160
<v Speaker 3>I had a few questions.

0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:46.879
<v Speaker 4>So first when you had mentioned with your husband with HR, soho,

0:18:47.200 --> 0:18:49.560
<v Speaker 4>I didn't even know that was possible. So somebody's paycheck

0:18:49.600 --> 0:18:53.520
<v Speaker 4>can be split into different bank accounts for direct depositis.

0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:57.000
<v Speaker 5>Typically up to four. So most mid size so like

0:18:57.000 --> 0:18:58.639
<v Speaker 5>even my company. I don't have some huge company, but

0:18:58.680 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 5>we're able to do that. So typically a to four splits.

0:19:01.480 --> 0:19:04.720
<v Speaker 5>And so if you're if you're a single, ready to mingle,

0:19:05.440 --> 0:19:09.480
<v Speaker 5>I would say your bill's account a like, and your

0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:11.480
<v Speaker 5>savings account and your spending account. So I would do

0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:15.960
<v Speaker 5>the three right. So but if you are in a

0:19:16.000 --> 0:19:19.440
<v Speaker 5>relationship where you're like sharing expenses, then I would have four.

0:19:19.480 --> 0:19:21.359
<v Speaker 5>I believe that you should have some autonomy over your

0:19:21.359 --> 0:19:25.160
<v Speaker 5>finances as well as responsibility because you're with someone, So

0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:29.960
<v Speaker 5>that would be a personal savings. Each person a joint savings,

0:19:30.000 --> 0:19:34.720
<v Speaker 5>a joint bills, and and and and then your own

0:19:34.760 --> 0:19:37.720
<v Speaker 5>spending account. So to checking two savings. So one of

0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:40.119
<v Speaker 5>the checking one of the savings is yours, and the

0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:43.400
<v Speaker 5>other checking the other savings is someone else's well belongs

0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:45.040
<v Speaker 5>to collectively to the whole.

0:19:45.920 --> 0:19:47.720
<v Speaker 4>And all you have to do is just go to

0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:50.440
<v Speaker 4>HR And it's like a form like the regular direct

0:19:50.440 --> 0:19:52.159
<v Speaker 4>deposit form that you fill out, but it's just like

0:19:52.200 --> 0:19:54.200
<v Speaker 4>you can just add different bank accounts to it, yes,

0:19:54.320 --> 0:19:54.960
<v Speaker 4>and tell them.

0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:56.560
<v Speaker 5>This is the amount, like like you know, my check

0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:59.480
<v Speaker 5>is five thousand dollars. You know, let's just say a

0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:01.760
<v Speaker 5>pay period, a thousand goes here, a thousand goes here,

0:20:01.800 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 5>a thousand goes here, and so now like the other day,

0:20:04.440 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 5>because because because it's online only savings, we don't look

0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:10.240
<v Speaker 5>at it all the time, my husband is like, yo, babe,

0:20:10.359 --> 0:20:14.400
<v Speaker 5>I got mad money in my savings. I'm like, okay,

0:20:14.480 --> 0:20:19.080
<v Speaker 5>you're welcome, I upgrade right, But he was like, I

0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:21.919
<v Speaker 5>never had this much save because he doesn't think about it.

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:23.800
<v Speaker 5>It's been like the last two or three years that

0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:26.560
<v Speaker 5>money would just land. So my husband is the type

0:20:27.080 --> 0:20:28.679
<v Speaker 5>maybe this is all man with your boys, and you know,

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:30.800
<v Speaker 5>your boys be like, yo, yo, you can let me

0:20:30.840 --> 0:20:33.159
<v Speaker 5>hold thirty dollars. You gonna let me hear, you know,

0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:36.080
<v Speaker 5>And so he would always be like, yo, bhabe such

0:20:36.080 --> 0:20:38.040
<v Speaker 5>and such as you know, such a such a struggling

0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:41.960
<v Speaker 5>to be And I'd be like, who tone, I don't

0:20:41.960 --> 0:20:44.600
<v Speaker 5>even like tone, right, but like you know so now

0:20:44.640 --> 0:20:46.320
<v Speaker 5>because so we would have to be talking back and

0:20:46.400 --> 0:20:48.359
<v Speaker 5>forth to take money out of our our joint pot.

0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:51.280
<v Speaker 5>So now there's none of that because one, you have

0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:53.280
<v Speaker 5>your own allowance money and you have your own savings.

0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.239
<v Speaker 5>You want to give tone all your safe and that's

0:20:55.240 --> 0:20:56.280
<v Speaker 5>how you won't live your life.

0:20:56.359 --> 0:21:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Go ahead, you know, joint account exactly.

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:02.080
<v Speaker 5>I was like, I'm looking at the joint saving in

0:21:02.119 --> 0:21:04.320
<v Speaker 5>the doorbell. I was like, okay, long, I'll see no

0:21:04.400 --> 0:21:07.600
<v Speaker 5>tone bill in that. So it allows you, you know,

0:21:07.640 --> 0:21:09.640
<v Speaker 5>so everyone to feel like you're part of this community

0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:12.440
<v Speaker 5>where you're all contributing, but allows you to have autonomy,

0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:14.040
<v Speaker 5>like he could do whatever he wants with well, not

0:21:14.119 --> 0:21:16.040
<v Speaker 5>whatever he wants, but you know what I mean, Like

0:21:16.080 --> 0:21:18.560
<v Speaker 5>with his money, he can decide. And so I think

0:21:18.560 --> 0:21:21.480
<v Speaker 5>that works best for if you're in a significant relationship

0:21:21.520 --> 0:21:22.280
<v Speaker 5>with someone.

0:21:22.200 --> 0:21:25.240
<v Speaker 4>And another thing the last question. So the online savings,

0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:27.240
<v Speaker 4>like I said, I believe the same thing you said,

0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:28.560
<v Speaker 4>as far as it's good to have it, not with

0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:30.840
<v Speaker 4>the bank like I Chase. I have Chase from my

0:21:30.960 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 4>business and my personal bank account, but I have Capital

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:36.880
<v Speaker 4>one my online savings. And the reason is that it's

0:21:36.960 --> 0:21:38.440
<v Speaker 4>not it's a whole hassle to get the money. You

0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:41.320
<v Speaker 4>gotta wait like three days. So psychologically it's like out

0:21:41.400 --> 0:21:43.320
<v Speaker 4>of sight, out of mind when you when you when

0:21:43.320 --> 0:21:45.160
<v Speaker 4>I log on and Chase app, I don't see it.

0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:47.160
<v Speaker 4>I even forget about it. I was just thinking about

0:21:47.160 --> 0:21:49.879
<v Speaker 4>it just now, like I forgot about I forgot about it.

0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:51.280
<v Speaker 4>I haven't really even you know what I'm saying. So

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:56.199
<v Speaker 4>what what do you have any top banks that you're

0:21:56.240 --> 0:21:59.080
<v Speaker 4>recommending like or like interest rates that we should be

0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:01.000
<v Speaker 4>because I figure, I get what my interest rate is.

0:22:01.040 --> 0:22:02.959
<v Speaker 4>I know it's slightly higher, like you said, because online

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:05.080
<v Speaker 4>banks don't have the same brick and water expenses as

0:22:05.280 --> 0:22:08.560
<v Speaker 4>regular traditional banks do. So it's always good to have

0:22:08.760 --> 0:22:11.800
<v Speaker 4>online bank for the higher interest rate. But are there

0:22:11.840 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 4>any ones that in particular right now that's paying higher

0:22:15.080 --> 0:22:16.159
<v Speaker 4>interest rates than others?

0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:20.080
<v Speaker 5>There was, so here's being like one. I'm like these

0:22:20.080 --> 0:22:22.880
<v Speaker 5>banks will pay my bills. People always no, but honestly,

0:22:22.920 --> 0:22:26.080
<v Speaker 5>so the reason why I tell people like I, I'm currently

0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:29.360
<v Speaker 5>with Ally Bank a L L Y right. But here's

0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:32.000
<v Speaker 5>the thing. Ally Bank, back in the day they had

0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:35.680
<v Speaker 5>the best They had the best interest rate. They don't anymore.

0:22:36.320 --> 0:22:37.840
<v Speaker 5>Their interest rate is okay. I think last why I

0:22:37.920 --> 0:22:40.240
<v Speaker 5>check it was like well one point five percent. But

0:22:40.280 --> 0:22:42.040
<v Speaker 5>there are banks out there. There was a Credit Union

0:22:42.040 --> 0:22:44.199
<v Speaker 5>when I looked at Magnifying Money the other day, that

0:22:44.320 --> 0:22:48.320
<v Speaker 5>was given two percent. So I definitely say go for

0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:50.240
<v Speaker 5>the bank that's giving the highest interust rate. There's also

0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:53.359
<v Speaker 5>Goldman Sacks has a has a bank account called like

0:22:53.440 --> 0:22:57.040
<v Speaker 5>Marcus my Goldman Sachs. You know, that's another one. So

0:22:57.720 --> 0:23:00.840
<v Speaker 5>you know, I say that there isn't a best bank.

0:23:01.160 --> 0:23:03.240
<v Speaker 5>If the bank is FDIC insured and they're paying you

0:23:03.280 --> 0:23:06.280
<v Speaker 5>the highest interest rate, that's the best bank. Like I said,

0:23:06.280 --> 0:23:08.520
<v Speaker 5>I like Ally but I'm only there now because I

0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:11.159
<v Speaker 5>signed out with them originally. But best believed. Go with

0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:13.159
<v Speaker 5>the coins are you don't have to be loyal to

0:23:13.200 --> 0:23:16.320
<v Speaker 5>your bank. They're not loyal to you, you know, go

0:23:16.480 --> 0:23:18.280
<v Speaker 5>with who's give you them coins. Yeah.

0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 2>One of the things you said about having a joint account.

0:23:20.359 --> 0:23:21.199
<v Speaker 3>You know I can attest to.

0:23:21.280 --> 0:23:24.399
<v Speaker 2>I think it's a great idea, especially for married couples.

0:23:25.119 --> 0:23:27.879
<v Speaker 2>I heard you preach about prepared to invest, right, So

0:23:27.880 --> 0:23:29.480
<v Speaker 2>if you have that a joint account, what is something

0:23:29.520 --> 0:23:31.760
<v Speaker 2>that couples could think about investing?

0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:36.359
<v Speaker 5>So this is great. So people ask me, like, here's

0:23:36.359 --> 0:23:38.679
<v Speaker 5>the steps to prepare to invest so you don't have

0:23:38.720 --> 0:23:41.159
<v Speaker 5>to wait to invest for retirement. So to be clear,

0:23:41.560 --> 0:23:44.679
<v Speaker 5>when I say retirement is an investment, the purpose of

0:23:44.720 --> 0:23:46.720
<v Speaker 5>retirement is not so you're going You're not gonna live

0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:49.960
<v Speaker 5>on no private island in retirement unless you're living on

0:23:49.960 --> 0:23:53.280
<v Speaker 5>a private island now. Retirement is so you can maintain

0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:57.000
<v Speaker 5>your current lifestyle. If you set aside twelve to fifteen

0:23:57.040 --> 0:24:00.560
<v Speaker 5>percent of your income now your gross income now, and

0:24:00.600 --> 0:24:03.399
<v Speaker 5>that's all you ever do. What that will inability to

0:24:03.440 --> 0:24:06.240
<v Speaker 5>do is maintain your current lifestyle. So if you don't

0:24:06.280 --> 0:24:08.000
<v Speaker 5>see palm trees next to you now, you ain't gonna

0:24:08.000 --> 0:24:11.000
<v Speaker 5>see palm trees when you eighty, right, So then so

0:24:11.000 --> 0:24:13.080
<v Speaker 5>if you do that first and foremost, because you must

0:24:13.119 --> 0:24:16.040
<v Speaker 5>set aside for your future self and it's your younger

0:24:16.040 --> 0:24:18.000
<v Speaker 5>self job to look after your future self. So that

0:24:18.040 --> 0:24:21.680
<v Speaker 5>comes first. Then after you're doing that, then you have

0:24:21.800 --> 0:24:24.640
<v Speaker 5>to have a budget, right, you have to have some

0:24:24.680 --> 0:24:28.600
<v Speaker 5>sort of physical plan of what your money is doing.

0:24:28.760 --> 0:24:31.120
<v Speaker 5>This much is going to build, this much is going

0:24:31.119 --> 0:24:34.199
<v Speaker 5>to spend him something. So that's step two. Do you

0:24:34.240 --> 0:24:35.879
<v Speaker 5>have a budget? Check before people say or I want

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:38.919
<v Speaker 5>to invest, I'm like, slow down, slow down, Sun, You're

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:41.119
<v Speaker 5>killing them. Who's filling them? What I obtained? You didn't not

0:24:41.240 --> 0:24:46.640
<v Speaker 5>have bods? Right, So that's too. Do you have a budget? Great? Now?

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:52.240
<v Speaker 5>Step number three? Right, do you have savings? Right? So,

0:24:52.680 --> 0:24:55.760
<v Speaker 5>do you have emergency savings at minimum minimum minum during

0:24:55.760 --> 0:24:58.600
<v Speaker 5>the recession I say six months. During a nonversession, I

0:24:58.600 --> 0:25:01.959
<v Speaker 5>say at least three months of your noodle budget? Meaning

0:25:02.040 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 5>do you have three months of your essential bills saved?

0:25:05.000 --> 0:25:08.480
<v Speaker 5>Because we already talked about if you were to lose

0:25:08.480 --> 0:25:10.000
<v Speaker 5>your job, you're gonna drop down to get your noodle on.

0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:11.720
<v Speaker 5>You're not gonna be living at the same You're not

0:25:11.720 --> 0:25:13.360
<v Speaker 5>gonna be living at your three thousand dollar bus. You're

0:25:13.359 --> 0:25:15.159
<v Speaker 5>gonna be living at your twenty five hundred dollars budget.

0:25:15.440 --> 0:25:17.320
<v Speaker 5>So do you have at least three months of your

0:25:17.359 --> 0:25:20.639
<v Speaker 5>noodle budget saved? That's important because that is going to

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 5>help you if times get rough and tough. Do you

0:25:22.880 --> 0:25:27.280
<v Speaker 5>have that great? Then number four, do you have high

0:25:27.320 --> 0:25:32.120
<v Speaker 5>interest debt? Meaning how are you going to invest when

0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:36.480
<v Speaker 5>you owe visa at eighteen nineteen twenty five thirty percent?

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:40.720
<v Speaker 5>Do you think you're gonna get a return of fifteen thirteen?

0:25:41.240 --> 0:25:44.879
<v Speaker 5>You know, thirty percent? No? On average, the market yields

0:25:44.880 --> 0:25:47.280
<v Speaker 5>about seven to eight percent a year. So what that

0:25:47.320 --> 0:25:51.240
<v Speaker 5>means is you put your money in the market, on average,

0:25:51.359 --> 0:25:54.400
<v Speaker 5>you're going to get back eight cents. Let's just say,

0:25:55.200 --> 0:25:58.600
<v Speaker 5>but because you have credit card debt, you're losing eighteen

0:25:58.800 --> 0:26:03.160
<v Speaker 5>cents or year. So you make it eight cents and

0:26:03.200 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 5>losing eighteen cents. The best thing you can do is

0:26:05.920 --> 0:26:08.080
<v Speaker 5>pay off the credit card debt, the high interest credit

0:26:08.160 --> 0:26:10.919
<v Speaker 5>card debt, because you're losing more than you're likely to

0:26:11.080 --> 0:26:13.679
<v Speaker 5>gain in the market. So before you start investing, you

0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:16.639
<v Speaker 5>and your boo like, get rid of that high interest

0:26:16.680 --> 0:26:19.320
<v Speaker 5>credit card debt first and foremost. So that's four. So

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:21.680
<v Speaker 5>now you've done all those four things. You feeling cute, okay,

0:26:21.720 --> 0:26:24.840
<v Speaker 5>you feeling spicy. Now we can leap into investing for wealth.

0:26:25.400 --> 0:26:28.760
<v Speaker 5>So investing for wealth if you are a couple, if

0:26:28.800 --> 0:26:30.239
<v Speaker 5>you don't know how to do nothing else, like, you know,

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:31.800
<v Speaker 5>so most people are like they're not really willing to

0:26:31.840 --> 0:26:34.440
<v Speaker 5>do like everybody wants to like trade options. They don't

0:26:34.440 --> 0:26:35.679
<v Speaker 5>even know what that is. They want to, you know,

0:26:35.760 --> 0:26:37.720
<v Speaker 5>everybody wants to buy stock. Then you bought Delta. How's

0:26:37.760 --> 0:26:38.720
<v Speaker 5>that working out for you right now?

0:26:38.840 --> 0:26:39.640
<v Speaker 3>How's Delta doing?

0:26:39.920 --> 0:26:43.560
<v Speaker 5>It's doing terrible. I can tell you because I have Delta,

0:26:43.600 --> 0:26:45.560
<v Speaker 5>and so most people want to do that. But truth is,

0:26:45.600 --> 0:26:47.520
<v Speaker 5>most people are not willing to do the work for investing.

0:26:47.560 --> 0:26:50.840
<v Speaker 5>That's okay, So this is what I tell people that instead,

0:26:51.320 --> 0:26:55.919
<v Speaker 5>you can invest in a mutual fund. I prefer target

0:26:56.000 --> 0:26:59.600
<v Speaker 5>date funds because it's like super super handholding. A target

0:26:59.680 --> 0:27:04.040
<v Speaker 5>date fun is a mutual fund that you pick the

0:27:04.040 --> 0:27:06.119
<v Speaker 5>target date the date you want to pull out that money.

0:27:06.480 --> 0:27:10.200
<v Speaker 5>So typically most target date funds are the date that

0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:11.680
<v Speaker 5>you want to pull out that money. Typically is the

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:14.200
<v Speaker 5>date that you want to retire, So you might say

0:27:14.240 --> 0:27:17.040
<v Speaker 5>twenty fifty, twenty forty five, twenty thirty five. They're usually

0:27:17.080 --> 0:27:19.320
<v Speaker 5>five years apart. So you're going to pick a mutual

0:27:19.359 --> 0:27:22.840
<v Speaker 5>fund that's a target date fund, right, a mutual fund.

0:27:22.880 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 5>Just so you know, for those listening I'm sure you know,

0:27:24.840 --> 0:27:29.320
<v Speaker 5>but you never know. It's a collection of investments. I

0:27:29.400 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 5>like mutual funds that tend to be index funds, so

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:33.720
<v Speaker 5>they follow a particular index, like the S and P

0:27:33.840 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 5>five hundred, which is basically like the market. So that

0:27:37.000 --> 0:27:40.960
<v Speaker 5>means you're invested in a mutual fund that's an index fund,

0:27:41.440 --> 0:27:45.000
<v Speaker 5>and it follows the market and your money. The reason

0:27:45.040 --> 0:27:47.639
<v Speaker 5>why I like target date funds is that it rebalances

0:27:47.960 --> 0:27:50.600
<v Speaker 5>like a true investor knows that they have to shift

0:27:50.800 --> 0:27:54.160
<v Speaker 5>based upon how life like where they are in life.

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:56.680
<v Speaker 5>Most people don't do that, so a target date fund

0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:58.760
<v Speaker 5>does it for you. A target date fund says, you

0:27:58.800 --> 0:28:00.840
<v Speaker 5>pick the target date of twenty fifty. It is now

0:28:00.880 --> 0:28:03.520
<v Speaker 5>twenty twenty. We have thirty years. We got time, so

0:28:03.560 --> 0:28:06.280
<v Speaker 5>we the target day fund is going to be invested

0:28:06.320 --> 0:28:09.280
<v Speaker 5>more aggressively because you have thirty years. The closer you

0:28:09.359 --> 0:28:14.760
<v Speaker 5>get to twenty fifty, the more conservative automatically your investment

0:28:14.840 --> 0:28:17.280
<v Speaker 5>is going to be invested because the target day fund

0:28:17.320 --> 0:28:20.560
<v Speaker 5>is aware of twenty fifty is coming up. So the

0:28:20.600 --> 0:28:23.160
<v Speaker 5>closer we get if it's twenty forty nine, then you're

0:28:23.280 --> 0:28:27.320
<v Speaker 5>super You might be invested in all cash accounts in bonds,

0:28:27.520 --> 0:28:30.639
<v Speaker 5>super super conservative investments, right, so you don't not do

0:28:30.640 --> 0:28:33.800
<v Speaker 5>anything else. You can buy mutual fund that that's that's

0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:35.919
<v Speaker 5>that follows an index fund like I said, the S

0:28:35.960 --> 0:28:38.960
<v Speaker 5>and P five hundred. Typically you can you can follow

0:28:39.000 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 5>you look for a mutual fund. That's that's called a

0:28:41.200 --> 0:28:46.600
<v Speaker 5>total market fund, meaning that your fund mimics a particular market,

0:28:46.640 --> 0:28:48.360
<v Speaker 5>like I said the S and P five hundred one hundred.

0:28:48.400 --> 0:28:50.600
<v Speaker 5>So when the when the market goes up, your money

0:28:50.600 --> 0:28:52.480
<v Speaker 5>goes up. When the market goes down, your money goes down.

0:28:52.680 --> 0:28:55.480
<v Speaker 5>But we like we, like I mentioned before, on average,

0:28:55.880 --> 0:28:59.800
<v Speaker 5>the market yields about seven to eight percent a year.

0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:02.760
<v Speaker 5>You will you will over the over the next thirty years,

0:29:02.800 --> 0:29:05.480
<v Speaker 5>you're gonna see about a seven eight percent game, which

0:29:05.520 --> 0:29:07.680
<v Speaker 5>is great, you know, even like that's for people who

0:29:07.680 --> 0:29:08.959
<v Speaker 5>are like I, don't want to do nothing else like

0:29:09.160 --> 0:29:12.360
<v Speaker 5>And so when you're looking for a target date fund

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:15.360
<v Speaker 5>or mutual fund, you're looking for something called the expense ratio,

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:18.840
<v Speaker 5>and that is the fee that that fund is charging

0:29:18.880 --> 0:29:21.680
<v Speaker 5>you the percentage of the money that you have invested

0:29:21.760 --> 0:29:24.400
<v Speaker 5>with that fund. And so right now, like a Vanguard,

0:29:24.440 --> 0:29:26.960
<v Speaker 5>they have one of the lowest expense ratio. So the

0:29:27.000 --> 0:29:31.160
<v Speaker 5>brokers accounts that have mutual funds and target date funds,

0:29:31.160 --> 0:29:35.400
<v Speaker 5>and these total market funds are like Vanguard, Fidality, child Swab.

0:29:35.840 --> 0:29:39.120
<v Speaker 5>So you're gonna google expense ratio for First Fidelity, expense

0:29:39.240 --> 0:29:41.720
<v Speaker 5>ratio for child Swab. I think, like, right now, it's

0:29:41.760 --> 0:29:45.000
<v Speaker 5>like the target fund for a total market target date

0:29:45.000 --> 0:29:48.680
<v Speaker 5>fund for Vanguard. Right now, it's like point zero six percent,

0:29:48.720 --> 0:29:51.920
<v Speaker 5>which is great, right, not even point zero zero six percent,

0:29:51.920 --> 0:29:54.480
<v Speaker 5>which is like something ridiculous, like a piece of a

0:29:54.520 --> 0:29:56.960
<v Speaker 5>piece of a piece of piece of a penny. And

0:29:57.040 --> 0:30:00.320
<v Speaker 5>so that's great because the average financial advisor is going

0:30:00.400 --> 0:30:03.080
<v Speaker 5>to charge you one percent of the assets of your

0:30:03.200 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 5>of your money that they've invested. So the financial advisor

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:07.400
<v Speaker 5>is gonna charge you one percent. Bandguard's going to charge

0:30:07.400 --> 0:30:09.680
<v Speaker 5>you a piece of a piece of a piece of

0:30:09.680 --> 0:30:11.440
<v Speaker 5>one percent, so you get to keep more of your money.

0:30:11.720 --> 0:30:16.600
<v Speaker 5>Fees are the biggest hindrance to earning money. You know,

0:30:16.640 --> 0:30:21.360
<v Speaker 5>I'm not anti financial advisor, but you're spending a lot

0:30:21.360 --> 0:30:24.360
<v Speaker 5>of money sometimes for them to do automatically what some

0:30:24.400 --> 0:30:26.440
<v Speaker 5>of these automatic funds can do. Unless you have other

0:30:26.440 --> 0:30:28.320
<v Speaker 5>things your financial advisor's doing for you. If there's just

0:30:28.320 --> 0:30:31.000
<v Speaker 5>investing your money bruh sis. Just put it in a

0:30:31.560 --> 0:30:34.360
<v Speaker 5>target day fund and let the fund automatically balance for

0:30:34.440 --> 0:30:36.560
<v Speaker 5>you and you can keep most of your money. So

0:30:36.720 --> 0:30:38.840
<v Speaker 5>if you're investing with your significant other, what I love

0:30:38.920 --> 0:30:40.760
<v Speaker 5>is that you can literally say, hey, Vanguard, we're going

0:30:40.840 --> 0:30:43.680
<v Speaker 5>to open up a mutual fund. Well prefer a target

0:30:43.760 --> 0:30:46.280
<v Speaker 5>day fund that's invested in an index. So do you

0:30:46.320 --> 0:30:48.600
<v Speaker 5>have like I know, Vanguard literally has one called their

0:30:48.640 --> 0:30:50.840
<v Speaker 5>total market fund, or you have a total market fund, Okay,

0:30:50.920 --> 0:30:53.000
<v Speaker 5>open it up. We're gonna putting two hundred dollars a month.

0:30:53.640 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 5>Just you can have that transferred automatically from your savings account.

0:30:57.040 --> 0:30:59.240
<v Speaker 5>Transfer your two hundred bucks a month because you already

0:30:59.240 --> 0:31:01.600
<v Speaker 5>have your three months of savings trets for your three

0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:03.320
<v Speaker 5>hundred bucks a month or two hundred bucks a month

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:05.280
<v Speaker 5>into that account and let it grow. You kind of

0:31:05.320 --> 0:31:07.160
<v Speaker 5>set it and set I forget it. So that's like

0:31:07.200 --> 0:31:10.240
<v Speaker 5>the easiest possible way to start investing. If you do that,

0:31:10.320 --> 0:31:12.800
<v Speaker 5>you will be better off than ninety nine or nine

0:31:12.840 --> 0:31:15.480
<v Speaker 5>point most people. And just keep it really simple. I

0:31:15.480 --> 0:31:18.480
<v Speaker 5>think investing should be really simple unless like you really

0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:21.120
<v Speaker 5>are interested in learning how to buy individual stocks, but

0:31:21.240 --> 0:31:23.240
<v Speaker 5>you have to when it comes to investing, like in

0:31:23.240 --> 0:31:26.160
<v Speaker 5>the traditional sense and like the market, keep it simple.

0:31:26.400 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 5>And then you can also invest by starting a business.

0:31:28.560 --> 0:31:31.160
<v Speaker 5>You can invest by writing a book. There's other ways

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:33.640
<v Speaker 5>to invest. You can invest by real estate like I

0:31:33.680 --> 0:31:36.360
<v Speaker 5>do all those things. I have residual investments where I

0:31:36.360 --> 0:31:38.520
<v Speaker 5>have books that pay me a few thousand dollars a

0:31:38.560 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 5>month from books I've written years ago. I have a

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:43.280
<v Speaker 5>business that you know, that's an investment as well. I

0:31:43.320 --> 0:31:45.480
<v Speaker 5>put money into that business and it yields money back.

0:31:46.040 --> 0:31:48.400
<v Speaker 5>I also have real estate. You know, even in your

0:31:48.400 --> 0:31:50.480
<v Speaker 5>primary your primary residence, you have to think about that

0:31:50.480 --> 0:31:53.320
<v Speaker 5>as an investment, and you have to understand that the

0:31:53.400 --> 0:31:57.200
<v Speaker 5>key with investing is you should make money on the buy,

0:31:58.320 --> 0:32:02.200
<v Speaker 5>not necessarily the seal. Meaning this is then if you

0:32:02.240 --> 0:32:04.440
<v Speaker 5>always make sure you make money on the buy, you

0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:07.880
<v Speaker 5>never lose. But it's time to sell. So bought this

0:32:07.960 --> 0:32:11.600
<v Speaker 5>house that living in now cash SLFE flex but it

0:32:11.680 --> 0:32:14.680
<v Speaker 5>was a foreclosure so it was worth at the time

0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:17.160
<v Speaker 5>maybe three twenty because it was kind of like a

0:32:17.200 --> 0:32:20.280
<v Speaker 5>little bit beat up, and we bought it for one eighty.

0:32:20.760 --> 0:32:23.800
<v Speaker 5>So we made money on a buy even if nothing

0:32:23.800 --> 0:32:25.240
<v Speaker 5>else we didn't fix it up. We're like, you know,

0:32:25.240 --> 0:32:27.200
<v Speaker 5>we tired, we ran out of money to fix it up.

0:32:27.240 --> 0:32:29.000
<v Speaker 5>We bought it for one eighty a house that's worth

0:32:29.040 --> 0:32:31.440
<v Speaker 5>three twenty, So we made money on the buy, no

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:33.440
<v Speaker 5>matter what. So even now they're talking about the market

0:32:33.480 --> 0:32:35.640
<v Speaker 5>it's gonna drop, I'm not worried about it. Would have

0:32:35.680 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 5>to drop a whole hell of a lot for a

0:32:37.440 --> 0:32:40.280
<v Speaker 5>house worth three twenty to drop down to one eighty,

0:32:40.640 --> 0:32:45.120
<v Speaker 5>you know, exactly, so we so then we then we

0:32:45.200 --> 0:32:47.120
<v Speaker 5>renovated the place. So now I just got the house

0:32:47.120 --> 0:32:49.520
<v Speaker 5>of praise. We renovated it. The house is now worth

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:52.840
<v Speaker 5>three ninety. So it's like even if we never renovated,

0:32:52.920 --> 0:32:55.280
<v Speaker 5>we was gonna win. So same thing with stocks, you

0:32:55.320 --> 0:32:57.720
<v Speaker 5>know that, like you make money on the buy, you know,

0:32:58.600 --> 0:33:00.840
<v Speaker 5>not necessarily, like you don't want to have to wait

0:33:00.840 --> 0:33:02.280
<v Speaker 5>for the out. But not enough people do that. They

0:33:02.320 --> 0:33:04.720
<v Speaker 5>want to jump into the market right now because you know,

0:33:05.160 --> 0:33:08.400
<v Speaker 5>your your neighbor's like, oh I bought, Oh you're not in,

0:33:08.480 --> 0:33:11.400
<v Speaker 5>but yeah, I me h, oh little bitcoin. Meanwhile, you

0:33:11.440 --> 0:33:13.720
<v Speaker 5>don't know nothing, know what they're talking about. Don't jump

0:33:13.760 --> 0:33:15.440
<v Speaker 5>in and lose your money. Like if you're not going

0:33:15.440 --> 0:33:17.600
<v Speaker 5>to do the research, you're going to be broke. Get

0:33:17.640 --> 0:33:20.000
<v Speaker 5>you an index fund, you know, invest in things that

0:33:20.040 --> 0:33:22.280
<v Speaker 5>you're willing to do the research on, or invest in

0:33:22.360 --> 0:33:25.600
<v Speaker 5>semi automated, super simple investments, and you'll be fine. You

0:33:25.600 --> 0:33:28.360
<v Speaker 5>don't have to have your investments so honestly largely be boring.

0:33:28.400 --> 0:33:30.080
<v Speaker 5>You don't have to have the hottest stock.

0:33:30.680 --> 0:33:34.080
<v Speaker 6>So, Coach, the energy out there felt different. What changed

0:33:34.120 --> 0:33:34.840
<v Speaker 6>for the team today?

0:33:34.960 --> 0:33:37.120
<v Speaker 7>It was the new game day scratches from the California

0:33:37.160 --> 0:33:38.160
<v Speaker 7>Lottery players.

0:33:38.200 --> 0:33:40.880
<v Speaker 3>Everything. Those games sent the team's energy through the roof.

0:33:40.960 --> 0:33:42.920
<v Speaker 6>Are you saying it was the off field play that

0:33:42.960 --> 0:33:44.120
<v Speaker 6>made the difference on the field.

0:33:44.200 --> 0:33:46.960
<v Speaker 7>Hey, little play makes your day, and today it made

0:33:46.960 --> 0:33:49.320
<v Speaker 7>the game. That's all for now, Coach.

0:33:49.200 --> 0:33:49.880
<v Speaker 5>One more question.

0:33:50.040 --> 0:33:52.880
<v Speaker 8>Played the new Los Angeles Chargers, San Francisco forty nine

0:33:52.960 --> 0:33:56.000
<v Speaker 8>ers and Los Angeles Rams scratchers from the California Lottery.

0:33:56.120 --> 0:33:59.200
<v Speaker 8>A little play can make your day. Peace may responsible.

0:33:59.200 --> 0:34:00.760
<v Speaker 8>You must be eighteen years old older to purchase plate

0:34:00.800 --> 0:34:01.080
