the
2:58
sam i'm to survive and
3:00
know got to two young kids at home
3:02
ah spent two more than two years
3:04
writing the book by this not that finally
3:06
coming out july nineteen so i'm really thrilled
3:09
about bad it's kind of like earning a child
3:11
maybe maybe harder or maybe the equivalent
3:13
for male birth of child and
3:15
i'm happy to take break after
3:18
august and take back again i was curious
3:20
to ten years ago you were in finance and york
3:22
was it about ten years nineteen ninety ninety
3:24
two thousand and one i was in new york city up
3:26
to about twenty years ago i mean that's crazy right
3:28
twenty one year yet more than twenty years ago
3:31
i think i'm curious three to reflect on that because
3:33
like what an interesting journey you had very traditional
3:35
what everyone expected of your life like you're going to
3:37
go finance do stocks do some and then
3:39
you you're like i'm gonna blog and an avid
3:42
this kind of alternative approach that that
3:44
seems like it's working out like other for up to hear your
3:46
your reflection that i mean yeah now that
3:48
bring about the topic topic twenty
3:50
plus years it's crazy how quickly it's
3:52
gone and yeah i mean i got lucky getting
3:54
a job at goldman sachs in york city
3:56
was seven rounds fifty five interviews
3:59
and i had a [unk] go to ah
4:01
schengen which is southern china to
4:03
work at a father's friends
4:05
eyeglass factory and of all places
4:07
and my kind of manage that operation and
4:09
was just you know china's opening up and
4:12
i thought and i studied chinese in
4:14
college as minor and thought man what great
4:16
opportunity to go there because i've always want
4:18
to do something entrepreneurial and jump off d
4:20
plan then when i got this job
4:22
that took seven months you
4:24
like seven months and seven rounds then
4:26
you know can't pass up his job he
4:28
notes that this the stable path to riches
4:31
are you majoring com or that yeah yeah
4:33
that and so i didn't the
4:36
and it worked fine i immediately
4:38
didn't like it because i'd get into the office at
4:40
five thirty am and another to leave like
4:42
a pm just ridiculous right the
4:44
i get in way before the your senior
4:47
seal traitors come in before the market
4:49
and and yet to stay late because asia
4:51
opened up and had correspond with my colleagues in
4:53
asia the really quickly i realized
4:55
couldn't last so that's a good thing about
4:57
having terrible job is it makes you want
4:59
save and invest aggressively to get
5:01
hell out right granted out for thirteen
5:04
years and said you know odd i gotta do something
5:06
else and during the financial crisis i started
5:08
financial semi two thousand and nine exactly
5:10
at the bottom of the market july two thousand nine
5:13
then started growing in it just became such a
5:15
passion project and was so fun but
5:17
as i get on this could something good after
5:20
finance i think what what i'd like to providing
5:22
people is kind of the time frames sometimes
5:24
is helpful sometimes not been like how long did it take
5:26
to finally make that real thing into that that kabir
5:29
national income and full time yeah so
5:32
down and in i started financial samurai then
5:35
by a twenty twelve i left my
5:37
banking job which paid well i'm in paid
5:40
half a million dollars more of an upright
5:42
in big risk obviously but my parents
5:45
supported the the yeah okay you'll find
5:47
something do and you like what you doing like right
5:49
and by then mean find a samurai was
5:51
something i really enjoy doing would do it for fried
5:53
and really matters so fun connect it
5:55
was probably making seventy
5:57
eighty grand a year from advertising
6:00
but then i have had passive or investment
6:02
income rifle real estate rental rental
6:04
properties and dividend stocks so
6:06
had probably another seventy eighty
6:08
thousand dollars there so i knew
6:10
that no matter what i would be
6:12
okay if i left and then
6:14
i also negotiate severance so the severance
6:16
was key tatler to escape banking
6:19
because when you work banking as you work
6:21
tech you get deferred compensation and
6:23
this more senior you get more deferred
6:25
compensation you get the by the time
6:27
want leave and twenty twelve i had three
6:30
years a deferred compensation plus this toxic
6:32
as an investment they force us to buy
6:35
back in two thousand and nine and ten
6:38
that how much a seven year vest so it was
6:40
coming out and twenty seventeen and
6:42
if i quit would have lost three
6:44
years of worth of deferred compensation which was
6:46
a lot of money and then i would have missed
6:48
out on this so this toxic
6:51
as an investment that actually turn out quite well because
6:53
it bought like all these mortgage backed
6:55
securities in tokyo goes your
6:57
seventies was like wow like mighty
6:59
took it as a okay if don't leave
7:01
now to do something that i want to do
7:03
that i'm never going to leave at thirty four how
7:05
was that i'm is great it scary
7:08
as you do a lot of hesitation in
7:10
what you doing walking away from multiple
7:12
six figure income the be to stay the course
7:15
until you're forty you'll have x
7:17
amount money the time it know
7:19
just realized a finance was
7:21
no longer fun the financial crisis
7:23
made it you know where everything
7:25
was very scrutinised you became
7:27
public enemy number one if you work in finance
7:30
the no more money wasn't motivator and
7:32
saw my bosses you know them a more
7:34
money but like they weren't really happy
7:37
so i don't want to go down that
7:39
path and just be like them so i
7:41
want do my thing even though it meant like making
7:43
eighty plus percent less at
7:45
least for the first year would think people
7:47
in their twenties or people and and people
7:49
inner cities can learn from that i think your
7:51
twenties you don't want yolo it too
7:53
hard because i
7:56
mean it's just yeah i think we're
7:58
all the specially now your influenced
8:00
by social media and everything but think
8:03
that's the time where you want learn the most
8:05
and work your hardest because
8:08
you have the most amount energy and the least amount
8:10
responsibility
8:11
you can take crazy amount risks
8:13
start your business start your side also
8:15
apply these jobs wire on world we
8:18
job whatever of take more risks is
8:20
what i'm saying because you have so much time and energy
8:22
to make up any losses the
8:24
people in their fifties and above
8:26
i would say take more risks
8:29
and just don't waste their time to
8:31
time as most precious commodity absolutely
8:34
the man the korean forty
8:36
discern forty have resorted to thank you or
8:39
a made me realize it's like the literally
8:41
this week that i probably thirty years
8:43
of thirty usable years like i can live
8:45
till nine years one twenty but realistically like
8:47
i'm gonna be a chair watching wheel of fortune
8:50
eating like wave dinners like you know collector
8:52
doing much to like my body will be goods
8:54
or eighty and some like i know like was debating
8:56
getting a i just bought fifteen thousand or by and
8:59
i know postman few months thinking about it and
9:01
that you know in the business will spend twenty
9:03
thousand on add the day but did think like
9:05
what i bike lot this is an important
9:07
to me and like a dandy like
9:09
after two years left when i enjoy the thing if
9:12
i give when i can't not just a indulgent
9:14
going death but i can afford to there
9:16
was good reminder for myself absolutely
9:18
i mean older we get the faster time
9:20
goes literally because each year
9:23
last they got greater percentage
9:25
of your remaining years right the
9:27
letter you live to eighty you the first
9:29
year as one alias but then you're forty
9:31
first years like one fortieth so literally
9:34
double the value and time
9:36
so i mean we've got thing about accumulation
9:38
mode and i'm thinking about accumulation mode at
9:40
age forty five which is spend down
9:42
your wealth seat on diet with so much
9:45
and think lot of us were so focused
9:47
on saving investing building business
9:50
that we just makes so much more
9:52
money than we need and then we'd
9:54
end up dying with all this money this like what what
9:56
like instead of spending five hundred
9:58
thousand dollars extending out in our lives
10:01
by six months towards the end we could have
10:03
spent less time not making that five
10:05
hundred thousand dollars or million dollars
10:07
while we're in our thirties forties and fifties
10:09
right one i love effort garlic bill perkins
10:11
not that i was zero one exactly yeah
10:13
which is great i guess how have you change
10:16
behavior and how you d humiliating so
10:18
i'm going be forty five this
10:20
june twenty twenty two and
10:22
i haven't accumulation plan
10:24
and it's going start small and it's gonna
10:26
work it's way up selling i like every like
10:29
big financial decision you want to start
10:31
small see how you feel you know and
10:33
then go from there so my plan i'm
10:35
i'm very done a lot of the calculations and perform
10:37
analysis of what my neck with will be you
10:40
know and five ten thirty forty years
10:42
right there's some different return scenarios
10:44
and saving scenarios what is start small
10:46
first you know
10:47
no you go to get goober eats a new instead
10:49
of ordering like kentucky fried chicken he
10:51
orders and toros assuming you know instead
10:54
of spending twenty bucks you sound like hundred bucks
10:56
and start with food right and
10:58
then you eat your food don't have to stand
11:00
up in hundred dollars on dinner and and you're like okay
11:02
how did feel spending that and facilitate
11:05
and to continue spending more the we're
11:07
gonna try to conquer food we've already
11:09
conquered twisted and we're spending lot money on
11:11
our kids and
11:13
maybe we'll conquer housing next maybe we'll
11:15
live it up and try to buy a house we don't
11:17
new need i don't know and then after that
11:20
will try to do more philanthropies that's
11:22
just giving money away to friends and family
11:25
which is actually the easiest is the give
11:27
money away to good causes beyond
11:29
your friends unfair there is a process
11:31
that i'm gonna try to implement over the next forty
11:34
years of live for years and the sail
11:36
goes this is very and talked about
11:38
because it's it's a small percentage of population
11:40
but i i do think there's some issue that
11:42
people don't know to spend money oh yeah my parents
11:44
worked twenty five years hard
11:46
years ago i don't work hard to i'm like hanging out with
11:48
you talking about financing this is find catholic
11:50
like this like career sorts the
11:53
art my parents like hated their jobs
11:55
and always been a lot of time made all this money
11:57
not a ton but it at a good amount your and
11:59
they're like we're gonna go seven eleven by
12:01
an extra large coffee and encino
12:03
divvied up for the week or a catholic
12:05
not just like the amount of frugality
12:07
and and it's funny that they should look whatever
12:09
make them happy but think there's ways that they can
12:11
save time or they can do a little
12:13
bit more luxurious so i'm i spend my money
12:16
to do that for them like
12:18
bought a first class tickets monolithic now just adjusting
12:21
coach and then i'll come visit you and they were
12:23
after him first class to
12:25
liquid doesn't give me the food on my mom others
12:27
get offended so i think it
12:29
is actually challenging for them and lot people
12:31
even if you don't make a lot to africa
12:33
how to enjoy and yeah to despite
12:36
being we talked about earlier and it seems like with you that accumulation
12:39
i bet in three to five years
12:41
you gonna look back and say the sitting
12:43
down dollar bike bought it was like the best
12:45
fitting thousand dollars you spent and you will
12:47
have know you will not miss the fifteen
12:50
thousand dollars at all the
12:52
all so then you're
12:54
good either think i mean your company's doing
12:56
well something goes gilded so
12:59
that's why every part of that is like spending
13:01
like think like things you spend time on
13:03
are things are in in you heard this is my new be like
13:05
your bed like activity just and
13:07
lot of time on like and i do lot tennis you
13:09
know like go get the nice thing where you're already spending
13:11
that kind time absolutely it
13:14
is hard once you're in accumulation
13:16
mode for and twenty thirty
13:18
years to then flip the switch you
13:20
know you gotta practice convincing
13:23
someone to date you are
13:24
hire you you've got to practice
13:26
convincing someone to let you go the
13:29
break up with you that negotiate
13:31
sorenson let you be free is
13:33
just a practice in in reverse effect
13:35
my brother has like i have five hundred dollar
13:37
geo tracker okay with the dragon
13:39
know geo tracker like car and
13:42
in know what you call it piece crap what it
13:44
is it that the category okay i think what
13:46
you said i really liked to is that using don't know
13:48
how many rid of it i'm like are using is no
13:50
but i just like maybe one day and
13:52
and i was a kid maybe think it is not much like
13:54
us analogy but as practice like you
13:56
don't want it you don't you that you're spending a lot of cycles
13:59
on you have one forty if left to live
14:01
like practice medina go a practice
14:03
indulging a bit like i practice getting a nice
14:05
current like at little he does zero from am
14:08
got nicer bike i'm pretty sure going
14:10
be stopped i spent just went like fifteen thousand
14:12
on art and i'm like so felder
14:15
as year like others are please come in here have
14:17
like have few other ones and ones don't have to be
14:19
worth it might appreciate your best the
14:21
addiction so you but if we if you can buy it and
14:23
but when you appreciate that old the
14:25
appreciate in value i mean that's a double
14:28
when which is why gonna real
14:30
estate has been such that addiction for me
14:32
because you enjoy it you make memories
14:34
and then hey you wake up five ten years when ends
14:36
up fifty percent and value like i should
14:38
i am them for free that making
14:40
money i
14:41
mean to do things on that is like i did as you tube
14:43
videos when outs gone viral about i'm asking
14:46
super car owners like how to make money
14:48
the make million and damn lot
14:50
of them like oh yes investment like these these
14:52
cars go up there on the other part of that i will
14:54
say same as i always was an accumulation mode and so
14:57
private to date when coded can
14:59
hit a little bit before in a
15:01
family got a nice houses like a multimillion
15:03
dollar house and you don't need multimillion there
15:05
has been like a never had anything nice even
15:07
as gonna it it made my baseline
15:09
happiness like ten times happy the
15:11
your point of house
15:13
the earth and love people coming i
15:15
love people staying here like i've a friend coming today
15:17
and and like an hour he's gonna sleep over and
15:19
light on i'll have sharing it with our
15:21
noses interesting the things that we can buy
15:23
that give us a baseline happiness you know
15:25
increments on a on the x axis of waxes
15:27
absolutely and then maybe go there are no
15:30
i really care that night or whatever when it's felt
15:32
as if us or did you ever get your house
15:34
in hawaii you you need to add you talk
15:36
about it so much it's annoying every time i
15:38
try to lose poorly
15:40
back in the san francisco know
15:42
i never got my house and why but it's interesting
15:45
there's a house that i wanted buy and hawaiians likes
15:47
sweet house and it's was
15:49
on the ocean front is
15:51
where are my favorite beach really secluded beach
15:54
and i really want to buy it but in a coffin
15:56
cropped out money then i saw
15:59
it five years later fifteen
16:02
feet of it's beachfront had eroded
16:04
away into the beach and so
16:06
what used to be like fifteen foot buffer to
16:08
the gate to the sandy beach became
16:10
like a two foot buffer where pool
16:12
is and anymore for the poor for
16:14
hello to the beach fla
16:16
, was a are maybe or maybe a good that the
16:18
by beachfront property and hoy i
16:21
guess of answers would have been some your best purchases
16:24
and then what some your irrational spending
16:27
things like things you to you don't spend don't the irrationally
16:30
when irrationally mean by that is sometimes
16:32
you know at the airport i still can't buy the water
16:34
or like you know you buy some effort like had to double
16:36
bloody mary the like thirty dollars on like the
16:39
school police manning something at
16:41
such huge margins profit margins
16:44
ah man it's so the principal
16:46
a i guess i'm just richer see some your best purchases
16:48
that your give you joy or that worked
16:50
out and then maybe some irrational spending
16:53
habits will my best purchase
16:55
is also curiously equivalent to
16:57
the price your bike fifteen thousand dollars
16:59
and it
17:02
was my hot tub that i bought
17:04
years ago like six seven
17:06
years ago when you know how to create us cement
17:08
platform a flat cement platform with rebar
17:11
i'd wire extra wires years
17:13
ago thirteen thousand six hundred dollar hot tub
17:16
and it's like what the san francisco giants use in the
17:18
club room just like six people
17:20
and it is absolutely the best purchase
17:23
especially during covert the walked over to
17:25
the hard was only like couple blocks away in a rental house
17:27
i took my son there three four
17:29
times a week would hang out we have fun
17:31
and i don't know if remember when you're kid everything
17:34
looks huge was huge
17:36
when you're a kid then withdraw the you like
17:38
all that said the sick so small but i think it's
17:40
like is provided the best memories
17:42
the best relaxation time the best
17:44
time to think about new ideas
17:46
new posts on a good stuff
17:48
so hot tub was is number one
17:50
and fifteen thousand dollars in terms of
17:52
bad purchases made terrible
17:55
investment in two thousand and seven and bought a vacation
17:58
property and that was you're
18:00
obviously one year before the finest crisis
18:02
i thought was getting good deal down fifteen percent
18:04
but it went down another forty percent spells
18:07
a terrible a terrible ah
18:09
but bought it kind of others nostalgia
18:11
biggest dusty place and like tower i
18:13
took my girlfriend at time
18:16
and then where i propose then
18:18
thought i would be nice to bite us to bet m
18:20
to cut back and condo and bring our
18:22
future kids one day kitten com or
18:24
ten years old like really miss
18:26
time purchase i also was kind
18:28
of delusional and twenty seven to think
18:30
that my income and my my
18:32
growth at my from would continue go higher
18:34
and i would extrapolate that income and growth
18:36
for like five ten years out and said no
18:39
problem by a vacation property that the
18:41
counter for like thirty five percent of my network then
18:43
of course everything went to hell couple years
18:46
later i am yours what other any other
18:48
decisions like as you you do
18:50
put out amazing stuff on financial semi
18:52
your that probably you're the only financial news are still
18:54
read and i you know your book coming
18:56
out deathly recommend amity buying it by
18:58
this not that i think what i'm curious about
19:00
those that have you been wrong or
19:02
what have been wrong about recovered until
19:04
today so from in twenty twenty twenty eight units
19:06
were out like are how's your mindset shifted
19:08
somebody cumulation motors is one them
19:10
as anything that you've changed your mind on
19:13
i'm in a different change my mind on continuing
19:15
to grind to
19:17
try to make more money
19:19
which would endless amount of money and think
19:21
i'm so burned out and i'm so tired
19:23
and twenty twenty i'm writing
19:25
boxing care of two little kids running
19:28
on finances m i want to break and
19:30
think lot of people are burned out as
19:32
well so my mindset is
19:34
definitely shifting towards accumulation
19:37
in terms of errors i'm gonna have many years
19:39
i have well you know besides a vacation
19:41
property losing forty plus per cent of it's value
19:44
since i bought it if i could do it over again
19:46
i might not have quote they retired
19:49
twenty twelve it it's thirty four we'll
19:52
probably grind it out like maybe one more
19:54
year two more years really gotta live
19:56
it up because what happened was i decided
19:59
you know what january twenty twelve
20:01
i'm gonna i'm gonna get outta here and then by april
20:04
and of april i was outta there right
20:06

20:08
in and to enjoy the give you remember back
20:10
when you're in high school and a some kids
20:12
like smart kids senior year
20:14

like for the remain of senior the have so much
20:21
fun any care about grades they're just stupid
20:23
enough like with an upright and
20:25
so for me if me if planned even
20:27
better would have planned my ex
20:29
maybe twenty thirteen or twenty fourteen
20:31
a one or two years later then i would
20:33
tried to really enjoy the time
20:36
they're build better relationships plan the
20:38
transition better with financial samurai maybe
20:40
relocate to the hong kong officer
20:42
the london office and gone on added censure more
20:44
images make a living on a lot of
20:46
adventures in since twenty seventeen
20:49
now since my son was born yeah take
20:51
more risks i is just nothing is
20:53
scary as in your head
20:56
know his usually recover from from
20:58
com any mistakes unless
21:00
their fatal think the the to things their
21:02
for me was i did have know my similar
21:04
to you i think everyone should not quit their day job
21:06
until their side hustle his working or
21:08
if you like both do both i do know steve
21:10
chew for my wife quit job that com you
21:13

21:15
money in his ecommerce business in his blog and he
21:17
didnt quit his day job for like five years you like i do i like
21:19
my friend their and its fun then eventually
21:21
like i its other two much in a but
21:23
really admired that think the other thing
21:25
for me was i mistrust you like
21:28
when i went solo you don't have structure
21:30
like when i'm in like mount up sooner com it's like we
21:32
have a team meeting here and then we thursday thing here
21:34
and i check in here and there to do this thing here and
21:36
it's like it's good it makes measures
21:38
different were when you're solo or small individually
21:41
you have kind of create your own schedule it would sure
21:44
i found little harder yeah i
21:46
mean you'll figure it all right everybody kind of figures out
21:48
what works for them like right now what works
21:50
for me as i gotta wake up likes six
21:53
try to write and do stuff until eight thirty
21:55
and i take my son school because can't can't
21:57
focus there's like noise and then
21:59
it's just the are like i'm pm and
22:01
i'll start doing some stuff actually i'm
22:03
truce for apps uma what was
22:05
the company that sold from mega billions
22:07
dollars your space oh mail
22:10
chimp sober the mail chimp the
22:12
eight or twelve billion twelve billion
22:14
okay though the when you're
22:16
in that space then you guys are private
22:19
and he was doing well going crush
22:21
him and so how do you see
22:23
that remember this
22:25
wealth creation and how does
22:27
make you feel and how does it change your minds
22:29
the a doesn't really add a new i tweeted
22:31
about mail chimp today just like that their
22:33
lifestyle business and i was actually kind
22:35
of surprised they sold because i i believe
22:38
what from what i've heard they were making billion dollars
22:40
a year profits really
22:42
i some some insane number right some
22:44
insane or of but founders of a three worth
22:46
billions dollars cash like renner
22:49
the doing i don't have their profit with that but they're very
22:51
very high in so that doesn't really
22:53
make me jealous or inspire me the
22:56
i you know we talked about team think question is what really
22:58
what are really think about you wake up know like
23:00
today it soon i think i'll share of
23:02
like roughly we helped partners
23:04
and be promoted things like today we did two hundred thousand
23:06
dollars in revenue we gave out
23:08
half that almost to partners promoting
23:10
the different products and wiki after season or thing we
23:12
kept in a little less than half and
23:15
i don't really care
23:16
that's cool i were if it goes down i'm definitely like
23:18
mindful but goes up it doesn't change my
23:20
level of happiness like i've much more excited about
23:22
like what products to we promote
23:24
my where he would call people are we launching new products
23:27
like now i think with reality for me and
23:29
in this a masters feel like i have more
23:31
than enough yeah and so that their motivation
23:33
have billion it's like will do have to do a lot more work
23:35
to get because don't want to deal with other
23:37
i don't to work out of like okay well what
23:39
is required what's the sacrifice like this than i
23:41
thought about for was creation of like what is
23:43
sacrifice required for that the
23:45
i really wanted outcome willing to do sacrifice
23:48
and think most people want the outcome without
23:50
sacrifice and i've done a lot in my twenties to
23:52
get to where i am
23:53
but i don't i'm not his motive him and i'm motivated
23:55
by more by progress like idea
23:57
of like we can progress and he noise
24:00
enough said it's also sort of someone came in offered
24:02
billing for epsomite i would serve as
24:04
day where we can worth that amount like i think we're doing
24:06
lot interesting things from owning software products and
24:08
helping launch companies and hub you'll find good deals
24:10
tools think we can get there isn't there
24:12
true north star from i think we all
24:14
have to be with listen to ourselves
24:16
like when you said try it out like aren't going to make billion
24:19
dollars like i'm barely spending as
24:21
much as and then what is it you know this this
24:23
pursuit of more as think as call that is yours
24:25
is a very misguided thing lucky will but
24:27
here's a here's some and was in that same thing that i'm curious
24:29
about how you think about i see real estate
24:31
my cousin austin i'm in austin
24:33
i saw this place another guy should bought this place
24:36
shit about this that actually drives more jealousy
24:38
yeah and then i try to mindful
24:41
okay liked are you jealous of the money
24:43
or would you really jealous of because if it's really about money
24:46
you should just do apps uma
24:47
your opportunity cost of up to missouri and seventy
24:50
eight figures like minus house you make like
24:52
at most two thousand dollars a month
24:54
profit ago and ah
24:56
maybe appreciation to and so
24:58
that's where find jozy but i have to remind
25:00
myself like well how do you really like how much do you
25:02
want to live how much you want to have to live and how
25:04
do you want to spend your time now because that's where i
25:06
had this internal struggle were like i
25:08
will or property because like was go urban
25:11
been stay there he did you have to own and on
25:13
so that's something i'd i have little bit more
25:15
a struggle with them how much money
25:17
or company can be making like of want to be out of get paid
25:19
well i'm here to well and mixture partners or well
25:21
and that stuff with and really tickled on a
25:23
political on his realists a sophomore one
25:25
the thing with real estate is the easiest way to feel
25:28
poor is to look in real estate
25:30
listings because unlike buying
25:32
a car like you can probably buy ninety
25:34
nine percent and cars out there so that's
25:36
why you don't have car formal you
25:38
can buy ninety nine point nine percent of
25:40
all the bikes out there which why don't have fights
25:42
former for was real estate there's
25:45
limit to how much you can buy and
25:47
the price real as it is almost unlimited
25:49
right that goes into the hundreds of millions
25:51
dollars in like muchas obama your
25:54
weather in the mumbai as a billion
25:56
dollar property to so it could go to billion
25:58
the real if it is the one thing
26:00
where we imagine ourselves
26:02
owning it throwing parties
26:05
raising family living life of our dreams
26:07
and if we keep on looking will
26:10
eventually find that property that we cannot
26:12
easily a comparably attain which
26:14
is what drives us half
26:17
and which was is what drives us to feel
26:19
the way we feel of where we're just now i got
26:21
were would feel a little bit of envy
26:23
and jealousy and we wanna like strive for
26:25
more to make that to to buy that but
26:27
everything else everything is affordable is asked
26:29
affordable friend of mine and he's probably
26:32
worth half billion we
26:34
try to figure what was what does the net
26:36
worth amount where the marginal
26:38
joy there's just no
26:40
more like zero doesn't really matter
26:43
then we came out to conclusion that was that number
26:45
was like fifty million image
26:47
thirty million but it was a fifty million for sure
26:49
so at fifty million dollars you can still buy
26:52
ten fifteen million dollar home in
26:54
fly private everywhere
26:56
in send your kids to private school corals
26:59
issue me every single day and
27:01
you can get trainers personal chefs you
27:03
look good feel good you're good
27:05
at thirty to fifty million that's like equipment
27:08
and ninety nine percent
27:11
of i think doing realized for half
27:13
a billion realized and what your thoughts
27:15
that i think they'd take away for me there
27:17
how much do we actually need to live the life we want yeah
27:20
it's different for everyone right i think the biggest surprises
27:22
it's much i think people don't get this but it's so
27:24
much lower than we think than we realize
27:26
people like i need big this money like how do
27:28
want live like and could you can have this us
27:31
public it's actually low
27:32
i think people work at like it we should accumulation
27:35
like you're working so much harder maybe
27:37
and it's okay you were hunted with you like it but if you're
27:39
doing so you don't like like that's know
27:41
that i'm have i mean and for think like my
27:43
network doesn't need segars i don't
27:45
like private and southwest you know
27:47
want to get away tickets in
27:49
, upper i have added
27:52
have pretty damn happy i wouldn't mind playing private the time
27:54
as if it's little to save ten thousand
27:56
dollars hour you can do it and gonna
27:58
have had don't like when i've lifted six six
28:01
to ten thousand and our i was just trying to think like
28:03
if i could sell up similar to make fifty million today would
28:05
i make that call the interest probably know
28:07
that him what i get a do for work in who i go
28:09
to work with honestly like right now is now
28:11
is highly valuable what are you really
28:13
lucky would say most people don't
28:15
enjoy their work or just checked out
28:17
or that there's some thorn in their side
28:19
some colleague your boss to just drive him crazy
28:21
the disavows with me in two thousand and twelve
28:24
it out you know i don't barring like
28:26
sixty seventy percent call is pre core by
28:28
like twenty thirty percent gonna drive me
28:30
to be unhappy i saw the ceiling
28:33
of the i don't want do this anymore the slightly
28:35
shorter or five days
28:37
and misery for two days of freedom right
28:40
you want to flip that equation did you can flip that equation
28:42
i think that's pretty good work today is raymond
28:44
too hard the issues maybe three days and then
28:46
is really does have oftentimes
28:49
the rest the way
28:50
pretty good yeah i'm in i think it's like crazy
28:52
that people don't realize they can like and think people
28:55
wanting at richard a job we had a lot
28:57
of not lot of good amount people mean million
28:59
dollars recap zuma which i'm like that's crazy
29:01
in our partners or maybe you can get rich
29:03
have a day job that you actually like
29:05
i think that it's a little bit of a fallacy that you have
29:07
be in a founder yeah i mean that's the
29:09
best combination of you like job you can still
29:11
make bank awesome i just
29:13
don't think that most people have found that was
29:16
scary it's scary in an inert adding my
29:18
twenties i i live so cheap that i was able
29:20
to eventually find it in took me to let the gotta
29:22
thirty i think other thing that you're saying that i really
29:24
think is inspiring for me and seven authors just
29:26
like you may not make as much money but if can find
29:29
the thing it might even make more when david
29:31
just find thing that years like do this fun
29:33
i'm enjoying this like i like showing up every single
29:35
day for better least two you twice yeah
29:37
i mean is if you stay consistent work
29:40
with any prop passion project you do
29:42
sooner later something good gonna happen
29:44
sooner or later you're going attract someone
29:47
was going to help you are some
29:49
recognition and some bigger publication or whatever
29:51
sooner later you can for tested but he
29:53
stick with it and you like it'll show a
29:55
d c can people tell your phoning
29:58
it in like ilan said in terms work that
30:00
debate camp and people who
30:02
actually just really put everything they have into their
30:04
project the mean i started the you tube thing
30:07
for free again in march
30:09
twenty twenty and now june of twenty
30:11
two and finally it's making like you know
30:13
fifteen twenty thirty care month wasn't
30:15
a goal islamic money was just regular the
30:18
bad and so mean team costs i think our team
30:20
all a and plus expenses maybe like twenty
30:22
km on oh that looks like a little bit profit but we're
30:24
trying investments in on like but it wasn't to make
30:26
money was like i just beautiful and make videos
30:28
and that you know the on how we get the upper productions
30:31
yeah what financially are you jealous
30:33
of his or things like you like you some
30:35
foul stuff austin and your car shit about a lake
30:38
house the guy i'm little i don't really regret it but
30:40
my gosh isn't that isn't jealousy it's
30:42
are missing out on all
30:44
the lifestyle i could live and so real estate
30:46
i'm a roasted addict than
30:48
recently with the interest rates go up i
30:51
thought a let's go take a look more aggressively cause
30:53
i bought my are temporary forever
30:55
home and twenty twenty in mid twenty twenty
30:57
as a temporary firearm and
31:00
i love it but any again
31:02
real estate just look at a higher price for
31:04
you see what else is out there new down the
31:06
back yard as you don't like those
31:08
amenities are massive a great and
31:10
so i recently experienced that with is
31:12
amazing house in as it's
31:14
just like dreaming i just dream about
31:17
a better life and that's dangerous
31:19
right it's it's actually disappointing because
31:21
i'm satisfied with my life would
31:23
you start dreaming about better better than you'd become
31:25
dissatisfied with what you have any just never ends right
31:28
and to really for me assist assist
31:31
real estate and maybe and maybe sites
31:33
i had a friend in high school he didn't work out but
31:35
he was always does fit you know
31:37
that many look good am i
31:39
was never that kind of her body type or
31:41
metabolism whatever maybe that
31:43
maybe fitness and fucked other states
31:46
are two things and would be nice to have
31:48
more of that i'm partially
31:50
true actually battle real estate addiction
31:53
and i'm doing a good job battling
31:55
being sit by not access
31:57
to the editor
31:59
seen in earnest
32:00
the triggers of and not to say we have to change
32:02
and but just be mindful of on and how he how do want
32:04
react to him and i it's funny with this i
32:06
live in the south austin i'm so
32:08
content like don't i don't even look the
32:10
i found my wife this is my wife house yeah
32:14
i do every saturday morning my favorite thing
32:16
to do is read wall street journal real estate section
32:18
you ever read that there was was labor
32:20
does evolved are so sick it's always like the craziest
32:22
like ron burkle bought neverland and you
32:24
know of march as i i think the one thing
32:26
you said that i i really did resonate with as well though
32:28
that it's not bad not bad good and the costs
32:31
from wars never ending like the classroom a followers
32:33
are subs are money yeah but
32:35
do think what is what is actually helpful
32:37
as to know what levels are out there like
32:39
if you actually can dream like
32:41
you can see a tenant our house and you
32:44
go in the house i are being beat a nice house two
32:46
years ago and that's with only made me realize like shit
32:48
like you're over alleged better so i
32:50
think it be able to experience the dream or have
32:52
big dreams or see them you could
32:54
be great inspiration like a drive ferrari
32:56
on tuesday this guy came by for
32:59
an interview want to do sanders and fries and
33:01
driven for another do the stresses me out like
33:03
i really miss my miata know what each
33:05
from you have to be learn of meat for i
33:07
like dude i'm gonna work hard one day and and get strong
33:10
yeah i think that's just me or two years
33:12
like the door dang there you go through a pothole
33:14
a booth blow the actual a
33:16
something out of my brother was stressing
33:18
about a hoardings in his minivan like is two
33:20
thousand fifteen minivan and compiler
33:24
what i'll get to rent get around for
33:26
around relic weekend the for our in the center
33:29
with nice yes the
33:31
how could someone who doesn't have doesn't have of money
33:33
get into real estate can i can i own few
33:35
properties and it it it's fun when you could share
33:37
it people can use it you can you make
33:39
this money on it in for thing i will say to sink
33:42
in a as an investor would in stocks
33:44
so if you are renter
33:47
actually short the real estate market because
33:49
your praise take it right your price take
33:52
her to and and at mercy to inflation
33:54
and rising rents you're only really neutral
33:56
real estate when you own your primary residence
33:59
your the up and down with the real estate
34:01
market but you're not benefiting
34:03
so much because you have to live somewhere right
34:06
you're only really long real estate if your own more
34:08
than one property or least if you're
34:10
you know renting out many of your rooms and center
34:12
make it as business terms of getting
34:14
long real estate is not easy
34:17
because prices have gone up and mortgage rates have gone
34:19
up it's simple framework where
34:21
you look at the property that he could conceivably
34:23
by take twenty percent of that maybe
34:25
ten percent for the down paint with the to
34:27
twenty percent look that target number
34:30
then calculate how long it'll take for you
34:32
just get their based on you're saving rate
34:34
and how long you're working so it has to
34:36
be really methodical that way you can dream or
34:38
you want but unless you start crunching the numbers
34:40
and looking at the math and and what is
34:43
it you exactly could be
34:45
happy buying ah you're not going
34:47
to get really anywhere but for me it was
34:49
a mission to try to get neutral real estate
34:51
as soon as possible because i knew that
34:53
dub if i could get neutral real said life
34:55
is much easier if you can control
34:58
costs living you can take more risks whether
35:00
it's their business or your job
35:02
or whatnot and i wanted to build
35:04
that property ladder where every
35:06
three to five years i'd buy peace will say that i
35:08
would live in and then i would rent it out
35:10
for passive income and then would buy a new
35:12
property and then if can do that over
35:14
twenty thirty year period you could easily build
35:17
a organic three to five rental
35:19
property portfolio and have them hey
35:21
for your retirement when your fifties
35:23
or sixties would you say that your real estate
35:25
playbook it's the easiest playbook
35:27
that i found in terms of saving
35:30
for the down payment buying property the you
35:32
light because if you like it other people didn't like
35:34
it you know the probably more than anybody
35:36
and then you rented out by now the ones i've done that
35:39
i'm four times already so do
35:41
have a for rental properties the
35:43
for half of my passive investment
35:45
income it's been great but i
35:47
reached limit recently because
35:49
don't want to deal with tenants are made and issues anymore
35:52
so i i reached the limit of for so
35:54
three and services for one in lake tahoe and
35:56
decided every casual dollar
35:59
allocated real estate after we'd
36:01
go into public real estate funds
36:03
or private real estate for like
36:05
reach for example so it's hundred
36:07
percent passive or private funds
36:09
which invest in the sun belt resemble fund
36:11
rise has funds that do that a lesson single
36:13
family homes in the heartland to sunbelt
36:16
and that's way to diversify my over
36:18
exposure to expensive san francisco real safe
36:20
recap rates are low and i'd rather
36:23
take advantage of higher capra
36:25
lower evaluations the sun
36:27
belt right and one hundred percent passes user
36:29
the vacation property total the new
36:31
but not as much as i want but
36:34
it's coming because of my daughter's
36:36
two and half hi so
36:38
we'll start going to more often the
36:40
funny thing about a vacation property is
36:42
that i bought it in two thousand seven
36:44
right that's fifteen years ago when my financial
36:47
profile was different so what imagined
36:49
then turn out be different than
36:51
the reality right so that's another
36:53
caviar if you're thing about buying a vacation
36:55
property your tastes are
36:57
your family situation might change in future
37:00
though it's pretty hard to port
37:02
as schooling now it's really
37:04
it's i as a two bedroom two bath canner right and it's much
37:07
smaller than my existing house
37:09
right now so like when we got
37:11
occasion we're going to going from our house
37:14
to a seventy percent smaller property
37:16
and as kind of like a mismatch right so
37:18
it it's kind interesting winter sisters
37:21
how life turns out i think the other thing that you've done
37:23
really well that i admire his i also think you
37:25
are looking at some properties based on really
37:27
seen attributes just never three articles really articles bought
37:29
this place because as close the ocean has view in there
37:31
was there was attributes i thought other people didn't
37:34
appreciate you know if you go to any
37:36
international city in the world any property
37:38
with view ocean view lakeview
37:41
river do what kind of water view treated
37:43
premier
37:44
superintendent cisco our biggest
37:46
the ocean is to the west side san francisco
37:48
and downtown is on the side
37:50
so during the west or your farther away from downtown
37:53
and also in your website it's cooler temperature
37:55
because you're close to the ocean so there's the saw
37:58
this bias against or and leave
38:00
that it's always fog year on the west side though
38:02
i'm in l like wanna clear
38:05
arbitrage opportunities that i saw and i still
38:07
see today listen services goods
38:09
a potion be properties you should buy
38:11
that all day long because they're
38:13
going out and besley trade at par as not
38:15
at premium to the median home price and
38:17
so they're like these little arbitrage
38:20
i to i would say opportunities in any city you
38:22
go to you such kind of recognize what
38:24
could be the next opportunity you're gonna forecasts
38:27
were you think demographics will
38:29
go in were tasteful chef and so obviously
38:31
the pandemic really accelerated at least
38:33
desire to buy properties on the west
38:35
side of san cisco near the ocean with use
38:38
because people don't have to go downtown and more
38:40
right but also luck as or any other opportunities
38:42
you sing in real estate or in financing
38:44
business today this a very small audience
38:47
like normally you'd charged for this this is free for
38:49
them i mean for for six years i believe
38:51
the heartland and sunbelt were no
38:53
brainer opportunities to buy right
38:55
at why san francisco new york city
38:57
have to have monopoly on you
38:59
know being the tech hub or whatever i say you seen as tech
39:01
hub spread out like austin right now
39:03
i'm awesome has done a great but since the
39:05
pandemics this the thing is so your
39:07
city and other some are you know heartland
39:10
cities they didn't phenomenally well right
39:12
twenty thirty forty percent annual
39:14
increases whereas the big cities manhattan
39:16
seven disco seattle to less
39:18
than you they've actually done they underperform
39:20
rights are only have five fifteen
39:23
percent year and so it
39:25
to me seems like there's been a back to normalization
39:28
little bit where i think there's
39:30
lot more opportunity back in
39:32
san francisco and new york city again
39:34
tissues one thing that actually people don't
39:36
realize what one the income
39:39
is very high in places
39:41
like sam just right leg you got like thirty five
39:43
year old techies making three unaffected foreign
39:45
fifty thousand dollars thousand year a shack
39:47
up with someone out there making seven hundred eight hundred thousand
39:49
dollars yeah right like dime dozen engineers
39:51
who are manager level or what so the
39:54
income supports these valuations
39:56
but one thing people don't talk about i've
39:58
not heard anybody talk this that
40:01
or the past two years the pandemic
40:03
has throttled foreign
40:05
investor demand of us realistic
40:08
and before the pandemic right foreigners
40:10
were boring like a hundred billion dollars
40:13
plus of us real estate every single year
40:15
but during the panelling you couldn't come shiny the
40:17
russian the couldn't come we couldn't kick the sheet
40:19
rock they couldn't buy the property right
40:21
so if you think about it over
40:24
the past two a half years there's pent
40:26
up demand of over two hundred billion dollars
40:28
in foreign demand for you as assets
40:30
real estate and so at the pandemic ever
40:32
subsides which it seemed like it subsiding
40:34
even though the case counter really high and
40:37
of borders reopen you could
40:39
see a massive flood of capital
40:41
come to united states to buy at first
40:43
cause the city real estate and then slowly
40:45
go inward in i think this is gonna
40:47
happen because usa
40:50
we allow performed the world during the pandemic
40:52
our stock market are performed the ability
40:54
to acquire vaccines outperform
40:57
so rich people or anybody
40:59
overseas on you what maybe we should plan
41:01
some assets in america is there any
41:03
way you can take advantage of that yeah so
41:05
the way you take advantage of that his first
41:07
by looking at underperforming
41:10
coastal city real estate markets and
41:13
they've ended performed the heartland cities because
41:15
i think there's a normalization here like heartland
41:17
has gotten very expensive incomes have gone
41:19
up but the coastal cities which were used
41:21
to be very expensive are relatively less
41:23
expensive especially khmer two incomes
41:26
and see you want to position yourself to one these properties
41:29
before the foreigners sop up
41:31
all the coastal city real estate again
41:34
we have any ups i gotta go gotta go until
41:36
or unless i
41:38
have been the funny thing is like is like i've loved away
41:40
from the bears similar to you and you know
41:43
i'm from northern california then i went to so com
41:45
u ten years ago like this is so much cheaper than
41:47
san francisco so much cheaper than but like that
41:49
not up to even been higher now but
41:51
the i think that's a real into the inside is that the
41:53
california real estate is not
41:55
that much more like now the housing you know in austin
41:58
like were up the area minutes about of thousand two hundred
42:00
square foot that's california some california
42:02
primary not california i'm not big city california
42:04
thousand and twelve hundred so there's
42:07
relative value on the coasts right now so
42:09
if you by san francisco to l a
42:11
real estate you're basically trying to buy ahead
42:13
of is your money coming to
42:16
west coast rights you buy new
42:18
york boston the remaining
42:20
real see you're you're trying to front run the
42:22
european and russian money trying
42:24
buy east coast it just takes time
42:27
it's just money so fungible just flows to
42:29
where there's the best option in the best returns
42:31
and i think system slowly go inwards in the
42:33
country because we we were have had started america
42:36
we we know america better than foreigners foreigners
42:38
know the coast then a disconnect slowly
42:41
go to the center that's my
42:43
belief in long term trend and if if you look the
42:45
property in hong kong paris london
42:47
so expensive compared
42:49
to most big city
42:52
cities in america it's just nine and
42:54
we have like some the best income
42:56
opportunities best wealth creation opportunities
42:59
this also like a thing that i've really learned about two
43:01
months ago my property tax bill as
43:03
thirteen last year which it's higher this year masters
43:05
thirty nine thousand as lot don't
43:07
get of cap in austin where it's like there's
43:09
a homestead exemption that limits of some exotic
43:12
if it's your haunted been not it's rental property but
43:14
my homestead it's now it's hamster to have will
43:16
be lower in california the
43:18
property taxes are much lower so it
43:20
actually is going to retire in california when your
43:22
income goes down boy you know why
43:24
income is high theoretically you want be
43:26
not the no income tax state so yeah like
43:28
don't point out to ah the outcome interesting
43:30
arb on years location with
43:32
age yeah i mean let's
43:35
not kid ourselves california taxes overall or or
43:37
hi i'm in your property tax rate like
43:39
one point two four percent in his prop
43:41
thirteen which keeps the property
43:43
tax from rising no more than more than
43:46
like two three percent a year so that's good
43:48
but and acid property values
43:50
are high so
43:53
yeah i would love to pay no income specific
43:55
of dogs and the in taxes than another
43:57
relocate to texas which is fine but it's such
43:59
pain now with family should have done things
44:02
younger so that as another things like
44:04
if you're unencumbered move
44:06
travel optimized take uris
44:09
but once you get older
44:11
your family gets to care your elders
44:13
and the young kids man it's it's tough
44:16
it's tough how you find good rental property
44:18
because looking for one in l a i mean love
44:20
looking for properties that still fish listings
44:23
it's all like listings because that
44:25
they they price too high because
44:27
they were thinking that they're going to get january
44:29
twenty twenty all time or whatever it is
44:31
rights they just mispriced it and so what
44:33
happens is when you price too high you miss price
44:36
is sits on the market and then what happens
44:38
is people start circling like vultures
44:41
like or the start wondering what's wrong
44:43
why doesn't anybody else by right it's like
44:45
a it's a game of them as a mental
44:47
game and so what happens is then
44:49
you can actually underbid the
44:51
law market because it's so much
44:53
stain on the property and so basically
44:56
i try to look for properties that are have been listed
44:58
for over thirty days and stolen market like
45:00
longer the better try to understand what's
45:02
wrong with it is a really something round and or the
45:04
just you know just the heard to
45:06
suddenly striking against it and then
45:08
you go in and you underbid if
45:10
think market is one hundred you go ninety
45:12
and you see what happened i'm each or be vulture
45:14
because right now we got doc he signed now and you
45:16
just click some buttons it takes like one two
45:18
minutes so been an offer a and so use
45:21
you can spray and pray on these stale
45:23
fish listings is kind of like numbers game
45:26
sooner or later someone's gonna bite
45:28
and be like okay this is interesting
45:30
and because you know the market so well i think
45:33
you can find a good deal that way i still think one
45:35
of the craziest things that
45:37
are real estate is that be
45:39
submitting an offer cost us a solo the
45:41
fact you can submit offers for like a d
45:43
there's not really discouragement from had just
45:45
make stupid offers it's like dating
45:48
like if you don't ask like
45:50
if you don't ask anybody on new never gonna go out
45:52
road so you should look at
45:54
one hundred potential partners and ask
45:56
one hundred of them out even if even one percent chance yeah
45:59
the hundred the get one of those you knocking
46:01
and any so sprained right i'd
46:03
love this i think where i come back to his
46:05
like id one another thing to deal with am
46:08
i do you really go to l a enough or do got like
46:10
utah colorado some these places where you're
46:12
not going again enough to justify
46:14
the cost power it'll just by
46:16
of it's a raging bull market goes up another ten
46:18
templars percent year for years but you
46:21
know that's when you gotta i think go light
46:23
and and just rents and enjoy a
46:25
scanner yeah the by this not bad
46:27
just like your book them times are things are easier just
46:29
to at not by it i did when i ask
46:31
you about recession if there's one who's
46:33
it's happening for a happy have really care and on
46:35
of i really believe in recession like people
46:37
still eat people what you're getting toro
46:40
people still drink people so sweet she's
46:42
but what i'm curious about is how
46:44
do you think people can play offensively like in
46:47
some things that could do offensively and defensively
46:49
you know if the markets and things are tightening up because
46:52
like wanting someone said to me recently the like you
46:54
know interprets going up which means everyone's the gods
46:56
becoming more sense you get house and
46:58
like was less you are buying houses i'm gonna go
47:00
and see i could buy more houses nothing that's kind of
47:02
like a little counterintuitive offensive
47:04
thing to do during a potential pullbacks during
47:06
just need you deftly and financial experts
47:08
me that financial love your your suggestions
47:10
or thoughts or the army the ideal caused
47:12
outperform on way up and lose less on the
47:14
way down right so during
47:17
a recession cast becomes more viable
47:19
even though inflation as eating with the cost
47:22
of your true buying parva cash but
47:24
in recession you cash out there
47:27
will be buying opportunities you going to take stock
47:29
of cash understand you
47:31
know what you can liquid aid to raise cash
47:33
if necessary because if things
47:35
get really bad mean because we can actually
47:38
be in recession right now we had negative quarter
47:40
in the first quarter of twenty two and to i believe
47:42
so another quarter that's technically recession and
47:44
this is it right down twenty percent stocks percent
47:46
ten percent of bonds real estate of front of
47:48
the last man standing it's up
47:50
right up up when every other as class including
47:53
crypto down so in that
47:55
sense i don't these be chasing real estate
47:57
now as the last man standing it's
48:00
men are fully outperform instead
48:02
you should be really i think looking
48:04
cash schumlin cash and just being
48:06
that and adopting a vulture mentality
48:08
and waiting to see if there's gonna be great
48:11
great buying opportunities and should
48:13
always be doing that actually in bull market
48:15
or bear market i was looking at
48:17
you know real estate listings because rates
48:19
have gone up right and if you have cash you
48:21
can be more competitive in your
48:23
offers to get better price but
48:26
the key here is if you have cash
48:28
you're you're going to outperform and wait for
48:30
those opportunities had known threat opportunity
48:33
it's hard job he also one
48:35
of the key pieces a thesis
48:37
he is that right in my book is think
48:39
in probabilities not absolutes
48:42
because if you think and probabilities you'll take
48:44
more calculated risks i have
48:46
like a seventy thirty to be decision making framework
48:49
that's as if you believe there's a seventy percent chance
48:51
greater going to make right decision go ahead
48:53
and make that decision with the humility and understanding
48:56
you're gonna make the wrong decision thirty percent time
48:58
and you're gonna learn from your mistakes too many
49:00
people wait until they have ninety one
49:02
hundred percent certainty before starting that business
49:05
find that real estate doing whatever and
49:07
then as result they never do anything
49:09
right and then they look back on their lives with
49:11
regret and so mad i wish i did this
49:13
and i wish it did that and whatever and
49:15
so you will never one hundred percent
49:17
know when it's the right time but you have
49:19
to create a decision making frame or
49:21
were you believe at least with seventy percent
49:24
or greater chance probably you will when you
49:26
gotta continue to make those decisions as
49:28
positive expected by decisions because over
49:30
course your lifetime you're gonna win if
49:32
you really truly are accurate
49:34
those decisionmaking forecasts and your beliefs
49:37

50:03
small hole think big ships that is
50:05
good good business with this thing i
50:07
haven't looked at credit card bill i
50:09
mean go beyond isn't many years
50:11
because i'm on automatic
50:14
pilot were in terms of saving and investing
50:16
is that i save invest person that i'd spend
50:18
whatever it is thus left over such as
50:20
canon thing about it that way but that's
50:22
good to should remind to go through your
50:24
credit card bill our household and business credit
50:26
card bill and see what kind the recession
50:28
does come if it does doesn't listen the
50:30
thing though you gotta i think people change
50:32
their mindset if the recession com people
50:34
think are bad know less earnings whatever
50:37
the way you are outperforming recession is
50:39
to continue to live your best life you
50:41
continue to do whatever the hell you want
50:43
and makes you happy and then that is you
50:45
really be the recession you like pay recession
50:48
stock market down twenty percent stop biting
50:51
your one hundred miles asked hurts
50:53
are you know you're drinking a beer at the top of mountain
50:55
with your friends will buddies it's good like who
50:57
cares about resistance will exceed sit
50:59
in recession is making sure you're financially secure
51:01
enough to do what you want to be
51:04
doing what you are you gonna be doesn't have
51:06
you made any changes based on things are
51:08
are turning or not i mean my main st is
51:10
that gonna spend more money because i'm going use my
51:12
money to try to improve
51:15
quality my life in the things that i on
51:17
to counteract a recession the
51:19
i also plan to use my money because
51:22
hey the market are going take away my
51:24
money i better try to spend my money before the market
51:26
takes it was assessed it's like a
51:28
race to see you can spend adaptive ah
51:30
you know sometimes that's how you feel marched down
51:32
lot right sizing change my mindset
51:34
live your best live use your money actually
51:37
to counteract negativity others
51:40
and i like that because think recession is lot about
51:42
plan and could be as a it's plan what
51:44
is your plan like what's plan on defense
51:46
with keeping your money in cash i'm like to your
51:48
point what's your office of plane were wonders a
51:50
lot whistle have a great lifestyle automate with once
51:52
you buy the bike it doesn't cost me money to drive by
51:55
maybe for tire or two girls
51:57
i think is a lot of really affordable fun way to to keep
51:59
live in a great life the recession thing is just
52:01
like what what's your plan to do stuff about i think
52:03
people kind of are waiting for someone to tell
52:05
them are like our in a whole fleet so little
52:07
get work out and they it's not florida
52:10
but you have to make work out you to make a plan
52:12
on a subset anchors so
52:14
the average bear market last about a year
52:17
and as a thirty five percent drawdown though
52:20
what you can do to front runner recession is too
52:22
what your positions and stocks for zap
52:24
on and as cut off thirty five percent and
52:27
then does reflect how you feel and how
52:29
you'll change your lifestyle whatever and said okay
52:31
that's a realistic downside scenario hope
52:33
it doesn't happen but if it doesn't happen
52:35
then you're happy to does happen you expected it
52:37
right and just adjust your life quarterly
52:40
loss of for me i've i've laughed
52:42
off thirty percent of my network okay
52:44
dirty was oh no it's done gone incinerated
52:47
into thin air how
52:48
will i changed the way i live and i decided
52:51
i'm actually gonna spend more money because that pisses me
52:53
off and i'm losing all that money determinant i'm
52:55
gonna try to spend it on my experiences and things
52:58
side i dollars into the market as much
53:00
it's everybody's different but said anchors
53:02
said goals you plan accordingly like
53:04
the better the anchors thing we can have similar you're
53:06
talking about revenue growth yesterday was like you
53:08
have revenue growth for you to have we have revenue
53:10
goal and it's like what we do need anchors
53:12
on profits can always revenue in your profit
53:14
or negative profit he campaign you know
53:17
as you need to have some much counterbalancing
53:19
mattress i guess is what people are conte because the colonists
53:23
i won't cure some roughly
53:25
how much money comes from financial samurai
53:27
versus the you know passive income
53:29
stuff on side like real estate and whatever
53:31
your comfortable sharing the have never
53:34
revealed financial samurai as part of myself
53:36
wealth mantra well enough to take care
53:38
of family for san francisco and then
53:40
so have my path of investment
53:42
income is estimated to be bought
53:44
three hundred forty thousand and twenty
53:46
twenty two said this would be like a third year
53:49
of investments generating over
53:51
three hundred thousand and that's been my goal my original
53:53
goal was hundred thousand so i left in thousand
53:55
twelve of eighty thousand just means
53:57
who cares totally live of eighty thousand
54:00
anybody can and then when my life left
54:02
also at thirty four thirty four and half
54:04
forty five and twenty fifteen our
54:06
goal is do one fifty i can make
54:08
sense or a kind of dublin
54:10
then once we had kid and twenty seventeen our goal
54:12
to go to two hundred and wants we had our
54:14
second and twenty nine chinos go to
54:16
two fifty three hundred sauce that's it
54:18
dot because we're not having any more kids three
54:20
hundred thousand is good enough for
54:22
a these are my style with family
54:24
for in san francisco and so that's
54:26
about it so right now i see fine if samurai's total
54:28
gravy which is why you know you see my
54:30
writing or just writing about whatever my
54:33
i'm experiencing not trying to optimize
54:35
first search engine i'm not trying to like about
54:37
on the products i'm just writing about life and maybe
54:39
what some people were you don't feel
54:41
my the experiencing and so i see
54:44
as gravy and good thing about seeing funny
54:46
samurai's gravy is because i reinvest
54:48
everything or most of it and some more
54:50
investments right then because it's
54:52
gravy i'm not home
54:54
and for money right i don't have to
54:56
do anything with the hire anybody or
54:58
do this whatever there's rocket
55:01
and have some fun talk about real life is
55:04
think that's a differentiating factor right like i'm
55:06
running a real life i'm not writing about the
55:08
latest product review or something right a part
55:10
of with what said i think lot people can learn from as
55:12
yet goal like i've never my passive income goal
55:14
was like ten thousand a month or hundred twenty
55:16
thousand year and it was ok cool i something
55:18
to work toward yeah it feels
55:21
good to worked have that goal even if like
55:23
it's are super stretch school even if you feel
55:25
you're gonna do lot of things to make yourself
55:28
achieve that goal was as if you had no go
55:30
right you'll go much farther if you have
55:32
that goal one thing i realized
55:34
is that oh there's saying have kids
55:36
and money will come and the reason why is
55:38
because you end up loving your kid more than anything else in
55:40
the world's you're not gonna mess it up you're
55:42
going to try harder right to be a good
55:45
parent and you're probably going try
55:47
harder to eat better try harder to exercise
55:49
more seat on waste away and then
55:51
died too young that's something and single
55:53
out clearly learn twenty seventeen
55:55
people tell me about that but you gotta experience
55:58
with herself on though those
56:00
goals but man you
56:02
gotta figure when is enough like i'm so
56:04
happy i wrote this book in the pandemics

56:44

entrepreneurs this feels great to create
56:50
reporting from nothing and so and test on an
56:52
idea and see if it works on us and pivot
56:54
and entering that's fun side such as
56:56
you get rewards get all like if it
56:58

the final say on tuesday with by this not that
57:13
would put the show was coming july
57:15
mid july july nineteen seventy
57:17
two what is your hope for the
57:20
by the sniper my hopes the
57:22
to provide people more courage
57:25
the do what they want the thing about
57:27
all the stresses in your life as
57:29
big as people people not enabling
57:31
you are allow you to do what you want
57:33
whether your boss your business your client
57:36
the side he i think there's more people need
57:38
the courage and you gain that heard
57:40
you game that purge my understanding
57:42
your finances by building those finances
57:45
to level that can provide enough
57:47
livable passive investments
57:49
so you can do what you want and book
57:51
is not just about achieving
57:53
financial freedom sooner rather than later
57:56
it's really about tackling some have lice
57:58
biggest decisions the dilemmas
58:00
that we face so someone dilemmas
58:03
might be marrying for love
58:05
or marrying for money or
58:07
having kids later are having kids
58:10
earlier joining start a war working
58:12
in an established from lot of these
58:14
dilemmas i think many us will go through
58:16
and i'm trying to provide a framework
58:18
so that a lot people think if i knew then
58:20
what i know now things would be better rights
58:23
to the key to never saying
58:25
that again is to listen
58:27
or learn from someone who's been there or who's
58:29
gone through that experience before and
58:32
, listening and being open to other
58:34
perspectives so i'm really excited about
58:37
the practicality of by this not that is
58:39
just not about making money passive
58:41
income building or not worth but it's been making
58:44
better optimal decisions can live your best
58:46
life or pickers for two thirds
58:48

58:58
they're afraid of losing their job are afraid of losing
59:00
