The 'consumerism' trap, explained
About this lesson
2014-2017: Graduated with an accounting, finance, and business education degree, but overspending on fine dining every week, in love with credit cards, knew nothing about investing 2017-2020: Moved abroad, became religious about lean FIRE, had an 80% savings rate, but had no social life and was desperate to get rich - bought into " get rich quick" courses (while I had shiny object syndrome) and kept losing money in the stock market because of information overload and not knowing the best way to financial freedom. 2021: Met my wife, committed to give her the best life I could, learned about financial planning and investing that actually works from books and real financial planners 2022: Closed my first rental property after saving over $300k (while taking my wife out on vacations) 2023: Crossed $100k in income, while working a LESS demanding job. 2024: Monetized this YT channel, building a financial coaching business to help families become wealthy while enjoying their money guilt-free. Now and onwards: helping you give the people you love the life they deserve. #personalfinance #moneytips #buildingwealth Disclaimer: The content in this video is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as financial, investment, tax, or legal advice.
