I’m 34 and my net worth is 112k. I’m so fucking behind.
>you can let your foot of the gas bro
No the FUCK you cant. I’m not letting my foot off the gas until I’ve got like 300k. This dumb boomer retard was gaslighting everyone just like that fucking BITCH who wrote “the simple path to wealth” and recommended 100% VTSAX despite getting rich by stockpicking.

a) if you adjust his $100k figure to inflation it from the time he said i would be about $300k+ in today terms

I'm 43. My net worth is about 1.1 million, 1.4 if you include my house. I have a wife and 4 kids. I essentially have a middle class life circa 1995and consider myself lucky for it and thats how fucing bad it is.

The new figure is 1million.
An 8% return is 80k a year so that's when things start to take off.
8% of 100k is 8k and this isn't enough compounding for lift off.

That quote was from the 90s. Inflation has made that 100k become at least 200k. Is the VTSAX guy wrong even though he made money from stock picking? He eventually came to the conclusion that you can't beat the market, which is true for 90% of retards.

He STILL became rich from picking stocks. He didn’t start off that way, and wouldn’t have made it starting off that way.

The ancient boomer creature is referring to 100k cash. You need 100k of real fucking money to invest and build wealth. The 100k figure is significant in that is the sum of money that allows you to quickly build wealth with the sort of gainz you can realistically expect to get out of th3 market. Your """net worth""" isn't money and it will always be fake and gay.

>>61625256
That was said on May 3 1999. "CHARLIE MUNGER: Yeah. The hard part of the process for most people is the first $100,000. If you have a standing start at zero, getting together $100,000 is a long struggle for most people."
https://buffett.cnbc.com/video/1999/05/03/afternoon-session---1999-berkshire-hathaway-annual-meeting.html
S&P adjusted close price was $1,354.63 then and is $6,982.42 today.
So that would be $515k now.

>>61625256
Am i crazy , ive been comparing cash on cash returns for Zillow properties , and its quite rare to get anything more than 8%. Where as even a standard snp 500 etf will generate around 10% with honestly less risk overall. Considering its a matter of time that a AC system breaks or you have a tenant who squats in your property. I feel as if the better strategy now is the stock market.
>>
>>61627978
it always has been. the difference comes from leverage: a bank will not give you $500k to buy VOO, they will absolutely give you $500k to buy a goybox.
>>
>>61627995
i have around 250k liquid in a taxable brokerage , was looking at going in on a property for rental payments - but literally nothing that has been proposed does better than what my stock returns will be. approaching it mathematically really prevents the over emotional partners who want to slap money at a gem that hardly ever higher than neutral/break even returns. With my dividends in the stock market now im generating around 2.7k in a stable portfolio , nothing real estate compares.

real estate is a full time job and the flywheel really only starts rolling once you have multiple properties that you flip for 1031 exchanges (no such tax benefit for stocks). RE only beats the market if you are willing to use leverage and scale treating it like a business rather than an investment.
if you don't want to deal with tenants then you should simply own primary residence (for various legal and privacy protections) and chuck everything else in equities or crypto.
>>
>>61625256
You misunderstand the quote, it's about getting from 0 to 100k just by saving(because at that amount, savings will be far greater than investment returns), which takes a lot of self discipline, if you can do that then at 100k your investments will start pulling their share of the weight.

yeah we were going to buy a couple of 125k to 150k singe family homes, generating an 1.2k-1.4k ea per month - even with a significant down payment (40-50%) its not that good. Im only in my 20s and i dont want to do something idiotic ; however the idea of having an equity stake is alluring - especially if doing minor cosmetic upgrades can increase rent payments pretty significantly.
>>
>>61628100
it doesn't matter when he made the quote, when do you think he made his first $100,000? in 2000? His decrepit brain is thinking back to the 50's or something. By 2020 he didn't even know what $100,000 in 2000's dollars was even worth.

At best you should only include th purchase price of your house in net worth. It’s a use asset and you can’t live off of it. There’s a large difference between 1 million liquid, and 1 million including home equity. It’s just a better measure of net worth to either exclude or limit your primary residence.

Moving to india sounds like a nightmare. It's not a country I'd willingly travel to, let alone start a business in.
I have $700k at 34 and I rent for $1320/mo with utilities. The cheapest house around me starts at 400k, and nothing is really worth moving into until the 500k+ price range.
I make $82k/year and every day I dream about quitting my job and just working on my solo indie passion gamedev project.
I feel like I've been close to making it for years now but it just has never been enough. My NW number is way above Charlie's 100k or 250k or 515k inflation adjusted number, so maybe it's really what he thought 100k was in the 50s as anon said>>61628183 which is somewhere between 1M-1.3M.

idk I'm just tired of waging, but the risk of trying to go my own way is so high.
My cost of living is 38k/year, so I'd need to make at least 10k/year from my gamedev project just to not drain my savings, plus whatever I spend to make the games. If I had to go back to work there's no way I'd make as much as I do now, not to mention the process of finding a job has never been harder.
Maybe I could really cut my expenses by getting rid of my car and not having to pay maintenance/insurance on it would save me ~3k/year, and selling it would give me another ~10k cushion. Just cooking all my own food and being more price conscious on food sales would probably save me a few thousand a year as well.
At the same time half my NW is in crypto, so there's some risk of it crashing 50%+ if I continued to hold it. Ideally I'd sell enough to reach 25x my expenses and keep 1 BTC indefinitely but I need a big pump. I'd feel like a retard to not hold at least 1 BTC forever.
I've thought about moving to Thailand, but between getting a visa and headaches of moving across the world and losing my rent controlled apartment, cost of flights back home once a year, it's not too attractive.

The moment I hit 150k I get a multi-family home in my town, start collecting rent, and am basically retired. And I only need like 20% for a downpayment +10k set aside for emergency expenditures.
>BRO you need 2.5 million to retire!
I live off 6,000 a year sharing a house with family members, no car, don't go outside. I can retire off one single multi-family home, which eventually I'd snowball into two using leverage.

No you still gotta hustle every day but 100K gives you opportunities to make it. Imagine if you put 100K into silver eight months ago you made a fuckin years salary for many people on that. 60-80K. Once you start doing shit like that you are ballin imagine your next trade is on Sexrobots.com it does a 300% in three years. You took 170K to 510K and now 25% way to a good retirement in two moves.

With 10K you barely have 51K in the same two moves it barely matters. If your next move is another triple you just got maybe after taxes 1.2 million. Seven years you made more than most boomers made in 20.

I started saving and investing hard in the beginning of 2021 at age 34, now at 39 I have a liquid net worth of $360,000. $110,000 is in a money market fund (VUSXX), so basically cash, and $250,000 is in an index fund (VTSAX). I did not do any stock picking, just straight up purchased VTSAX with every paycheck and let it grow and compound with the overall market. Do not shit on VTSAX, if you stay consistent you will break $300,000 in no time, no need to pick stocks.

According to various sources he said this quote at a Berkshire Hathaway annual general meeting some time in the "late 1990s" with one source I found stating that it was in fact 1999

Therefore if we take the most conservative quite date estimate, as well as listen to the probably-cooked official inflation data, pic related shows that the bare minimum amount at which you can "START to ease off the gas a LITTLE BIT" is $200k

and this of course doesn't take into account the fact that he was probably referring to $200k saved, not simply your absolute net worth after investing gains
>>
>>61625256
Did your stupid pancakes for brains ass understand that he meant 100k in HIS timeline? Accounting for inflation it IS like 300k. But you didn't think about that while you were cooking up this post because you were so convinced you knew better than him. Well guess what? You're still a retard.

Do you take short-term or mid-term positions where you take profits and move on to the next thing, or just invest and forget?

I have a NW of 43k between semi liquid assets, cash, crypto and stocks. Started with 20k of inheritance. I'm not the greatest trader but at least I haven't burned it all.

I did that in small bits towards the beginning when I was still learning. I bought and sold (at a loss) tiny amounts of shitty stocks like RAD and ET. But later I made very nice short-term profits on some stocks I bought during the pandemic like ROKU, CTSO, and SPCE.

Overall, my investment thesis has been to buy and hold long-term. I recommend setting up weekly or biweekly buys to DCA into any ETF that tracks the the S&P 500 (or skip that altogether and just DCA into BTC). Maybe set aside a little bit of fun money you don't mind losing if you want to test your luck on short term plays.

im 33, have a net worth of about 450k conservatively, dick size is 6.5 inch x 5.5 girth, and im 5'10''.

i can honestly tell you even after 300k, is there a point in letting off the gas? by the time you got there inflation would have halved its true value.

OP here

Guys I wanna say thanks a lot. I’ve never had a thread get this many replies. Usually my threads get max 10 replies because crypto ZOOMER FAGGOTS and lilys coin fucking dogfaggots let it die.

I’m so happy :)

I'd say three things for me:
- I lived with my parents for years when I was working. No rent then, and I pretty much set aside 90% of what I was earning it makes a MASSIVE difference.
- I basically dropped 20k in bitcoin like 7 years ago.
- I live in europe, but I make okay money, which allowed me to get a decent flat and rate on my mortgage.

I fucked myself over badly, my life is nothing like you guys. Tell me is there even any point in the struggle for me? I'm 35 and single with a nw of -60k in student debt living with parents because I can't afford to move out. Absolutely nothing to my name, pissed it all away in bad investments and crypto.
>>
>>61625375
This. You need far less money to live an actual 90's lifestyle. A typical 90's house (i.e. ones most people lived in at the time, not houses built in the 90's) were like 900 square feet and built in the 70's, you drove a ten year old station wagon - possibly shared between two adults, ate meals like meatloaf or mac n cheese, had one television, wore the same clothes for years, etc. If people were still capable of living like that they wouldn't require nearly all much money as they think.

100k on robinhood is 400k buying power

if you really cant do well managing a 400k book then you're retarded and his quote doesn't apply to you because you can't even outperform the SPX yet.
>>
>>61625321
I understand your frustration. I’m 31 but should be in a similar, slightly lower net worth in another 10ish years. Either way, good job anon. You’re doing better than most and have a large family. That’s the dream.

>>61627865
This stat is bullshit, it’s based on net worth that includes the home value(literally all boomers)
The number of liquid millionaires is closer to 3% at most

No you didn’t. If you did and aren’t dumb, you know that’s not sustainable and wouldn’t act like it’s repeatable enough to rely on.

>>61625431
Depending on when Munger said this, yes. Munger was a fucking dinosaur.

I’d say at least $500k is the new $100k. At that point your returns will exceed new contributions by a good amount.
>>
>>61626069
It’s illiquid. If you plan on selling it soon, then sure include it in your net worth but also reduce it with whatever your new house purchase/down payment would be.

It’s not generating any cash inflows and isnt likely to be sold at a profit until you are already old/retired/dead, so it doesn’t gain you anything by included it.

Kill yourself. Either because your a street shitter and moved to Europe when you never should have left your quarantine zone, or because you are dumb enough to think India is a viable place to live.

Oldfag here. That was literally my life in the 90's. You are welcome to seeth at your inability to afford the lifestyle to which you would like to be accustomed, but don't expect me to have much sympathy for you. It was your choice. You did this to yourself.

100k then is 300k now according to CPI, but consider how inflated assets like housing have been (at least up 6x since the early 90’s) you need about 500k-1M until you can actually relax a bit

I am almost 25 and have a net worth of around 4k, half in silver, some XMR and rest boomer stocks

It's so fucking over for me it's not even funny. When the Leviathan comes for my ass I won't give it up easy tho.

>until your first million.
yeah, boomers just don't understand that due to boomer inflation,
$100K when boomers were not old is the same as $1 mln now.

>Munger made this statement in the mid-1990s, and when adjusted for inflation, $100,000 back then translates to roughly $200,000 today
You're halfway there!

>a) if you adjust his $100k figure to inflation it from the time he said i would be about $300k+ in today terms
Nah,
Of course the inflation in US wasn't 2% for the last 25 years. More like 8-9%.

I hope both you and your wife work ,
or we'll eventually push some type of free college here in US, or it'll be brutal.

doesn't seem realistic y our 1k investment in BTC would become 100k so fast.
>>
>>61625481
See, it's easy to take 1k then x100 it to 100k then x2.5 it to 250k then x4 for 1 million. 1k is life changing money.

I’m at 2.2 mill and there are no breaks on this train. That is not a good thing. I could lose it all if I let off the gas for one second. It’s basically my collateral for leverage and I’m still poor in the eyes of every bank.
>>
>>61625256
This was said in the 1990s and was probably referring to his time in the 1970s. So 300K-400K is probably accurate.
You need to reach the point where investment returns outpace your ability to investment. After that things skyrocket.

> Wait until they all are going to go to college......
>I hope both you and your wife work
Having a wife stay home and raise the children is far more important than paying for their college and not being around them as much. At least until they get into middle school or high school.

Also, if they get good grades and go to an in state college it’s really not that bad.
>>

More like 300k adjusted for REAL inflation
