>b-but 5% rule

putting 40-80% of your wealth into a single asset is ALWAYS a terrible idea. The 5% rule completely ignores something called RISK, these made-up rules and calculations completely ignore risk. You may be buying the tip of a housing bubble, you don't know, none of us can predict the future. Take that extra money you aren't spending for a house and invest in multiple assets, REITs included.

Your train of though holds almost no value because with today’s low rates you’ll probably pay the same or even less monthly than what you’d pay rent. Even if you factor the extra cost of interest you can always just pay it off quicker. In your case you get nothing back on rent.

that's a bad argument as you can (and should) simply buy stocks monthly such that even if you started buying near the top of the bubble, you'd still make a huge profit long term. And you wouldn't be paying any interest, you'd be EARNING interest on them long-term.

i don't think that's cherry picking. that's actually going back further 10 years and the performance speaks for itself.

sure you can live in a house. but it's an illiquid asset. you can't sell it quickly enough if you needed some liquidity. sure you can get an heloc but you would need equity on that property.

stocks generally they are VERY liquid AND they pay dividends. you have more flexibility with an equity portfolio.

I'm not a wagie. I run an online business. Of course you won't become a multi millionaire in your 20s by playing by the rules and becoming a wageslave. Wages/ careers aren't designed to make you work for a few years and then retire lol. You will slave your youth away dreaming about how great the future will be once you get X promotion and Y raise. Then suddenly you're 30 and you FINALLY start making somewhat decent money (assuming you have a good career). But of course you can't slow down now, you'll have to keep working hard if you want to get promoted to a senior position. So you slave away your 30s too..
If everything goes well and you're a good wagie you might have a job that pays well ($150k+ post tax) by the time you're 40. So after 20 years of slavery you can finally start putting a decent amount of money into investments. But of course you can't quit your career now. By the time you're 40-50 yo you'll be wearing golden handcuffs and you'll have deluded yourself into thinking that work = life. So actually you don't even want to be free!! You want to keep being a wagie!! So you keep waging until you're 65 and now you're FINALLY rich and can start enjoying your life a little. Maybe you will start working part time... maybe..

I did the math at an early age and realized that it's extremely unlikely you'll become rich while you're young if you choose the wagie path in life. And the few wagies who do make good money in their 20s/ early 30s are never the types of wagies who end up retiring early/ working less hours. They live and breathe for their careers.

With a few exceptions (inheritance, lucking out on gambling/ "investments" etc.) all the people who make it in their 20s AND have time to enjoy it are self-made. But of course it's not easy.

If you're smart/ talented, have a good idea/ can think outside the box and you work hard then there's very little luck in starting a small/ medium sized business. It's just that most people simply don't have what it takes to make it on their own.
And that's why they become wagies. It's the simple path through life. Of course some people become wagies because they genuinely are really passionate about a particular subject (e.g. philosophers, phycisists etc.) and don't care as much about money. And that's fine.

But if you're smart, hard working and can think outside the box then the wagie life is almost never the best path to getting rich early on in life (unless you luck out on equity in a succesful startup or something like that).

yea, there's a bit of luck involved there. But you don't always have to reinvent the wheel. You don't have to come up with a revolutionary idea to start a succesful business.
Something as simple as copying/ adjusting a business idea from a different country/ city/ market to your market or spotting inefficiencies in exisiting businesses can make you succesful.

Imo coming up with good ideas isn't the main problem. A lot of people could probably come up with some half decent business ideas if they spent a lot of time researching/ thinking about it. The biggest bottleneck is not having the balls/ willpower to take the first step and a lot of people simply just suck at running businesses.

retail investors only make more with real estate compared to stocks because they buy real estate heavily leveraged (i.e. with a mortgage),

I'm actually looking into buying an acre or two of land in PA and build a home on it. It seems cheaper even if its involved and i get a new custom house out of it.

USDA does 0 down low interest mortgages in town less than 35k people which is a lot of people. Anyway, on their website calculator, it said I'd be approved for a $120k loan @ $500/month. Im looking at eastern PA and found lots for $5-20k, then use the rest on the build.

I was looking at what regular banks do if you wanna build and basically it works is ypu get a short, one year construction loan with 20% down required. Then when it's done you mortgage the finished house. I feel like kikery happens this way.

Anyone with experience can shoot me some tips or in the right direction?
