    He’s got extra money in the bank:

    All you young single guys should take a listen. This is your future when you never get married and have kids. The guy doesn’t know what to do with all the money he has.

    Spot on TaxGuy,

    Save your money to blow on stupid stuff later, than to blow it on stupid stuff now and have no more money.

    Kill debt and build security sounds pretty f~~~ing smart.

    Interesting video, thanks for posting. I am still relatively young at 28, taking those early baby steps to set a up a foundation for the future. It is a slow grind sometimes but nice thought that I could have serious bank behind me later on.

    Nothing creates wealth faster than removing the waste. It’s easier to not spend than it is to earn.

    If you rescue a damsel in distress, all you will get is a distressed damsel.

    Definitely. I’m trying to taper back my spending where possible. It’s actually the small stuff which adds up for me. A little mental trick I’m employing is to estimate what each small item costs me per month as a repeat purchase.

    Helps me break the cycle when I go to buy something for $10 but stop and estimate that it is costing me $40-50 on a monthly basis. The second figure is much more likely to stop me lol

    You start with a plan, you can’t go wrong. Sounds like you’re on the right track.

    It is funny when you think about it that people have two mindsets:
    1. Save for tomorrow, keep part of it in a bank.
    2. Default on everything (student loans, national debt).

    Who do you think will be the loser here?

    Yes, debt free is a step, but a 401k? Not so sure about that one. Id definitely not have ALL of my retirement there.

    I have spread myself into 6 different areas that are insulated from each other, and in fact if one of them fails, the other one gains value.
    In this time, with negative interests rates, bail-ins, terrorist alerts/big government…
    You gotta be rather flexible.
