If you've figured out how to make $300k by age 25, you might as well continue what you're doing and become a millionaire+ by 30.

You need to gain more then 8% a year from you money, because of anual 2% inflation. Not sure where you can get 8% a year. Guaranteed. Maybe there are some good preforming ETF's but is that a guarantee?

Why? Maybe you enjoy your work, or want to enjoy things that actually money, or want to have better financial security, or want to give back to family or friends who helped you along the way, or generally have higher aspirations than being a lonely hermit for the rest of your life following your mid-20's.

Because doing on //only// 300k (which is more than most Americans can reasonably be expected to save) requires living very poorly and in specific conditions.
Where I live I know a guy who lives on someone else's property in a boat. He has 750k locked up in investments.

Why the hell do I need gigabit internet?

Shit - I’ve been around the internet since what seems like birth. Nothing really cool to do here anymore. Get out in the real world.

An amount of money that allows you to not work ever again can in fact, buy freedom.

>> No.16732115

Touché

$300,000 can in fact buy your freedom from the consumer driven, materialistic, debt laden society we live in.

Start saving young and control your time.

Your brain will work on a level you never knew before.

Don’t let Retirement be something you do at 65 when your body is about washed up from working 40 years.

This is massive cope. The real red pill is that working isn't that bad and actually provides decent structure. I mean look at your life, you're obsessively bumping your shit thread at 2:51am (according to where you live) on a weeknight. You should be sleeping or you will get into neet mode which is depressing as fuck. Staying up all night is not good on the mind.

Reevaluate what you are doing. You are going to miss out on massive compound interest by not working and stacking assets.

>> No.16732179

Prove me wrong.

I’ll pay anyone $5,000 to convince me of why I can’t retire on my suggested net of $500k.

There’s a difference between work you’re forced to do and work you do because you’re doing something you want to do.

I’ll spend hours working on my lawn...but that’s something I enjoy.

Take the landlord pill and amass a few millions of real estate. For a few hours a month of work, you will have 3X the passive income. I can consistently generate 12%+ cash on cash returns. This guy would be lucky to get 4-5% from the market right now.

Confused with an influx of free time, he turns on the television set.
