When I was 32 I quit my job, sold everything, and traveled the country in an RV with my fam for over 2 years We were not millionaires. Or financially independent Our net worth wasn't even $500k But we knew we could do this without wrecking our future Here's the path we took🧵

💥Cracked phone screen? Amex Platinum to the rescue! @RoadmapMoney saved $500+ using his card's cellphone protection. Pro tip: Pay your phone bill with Amex Platinum (or another w/ cellphone protection). Via @forbesadvisor: forbes.com/advisor/credit… #AmexPlatinum #CreditCardPerks

@WalletHacks 💯

@RoadmapMoney And you don’t get upset if it gets messed up in some way, especially with kids

Dad Hack: Drive a beat up car As a dad, I have less than zero capacity to care about how my car looks So my dad-mobile (minivan) came scratched up when I bought it - Cheap - Zero stress - No one will ever steal it - No idea if I get new dents - "Struggle Bus" sticker is meta

@TheFMadventure My van, in fact.... Does have Stow n Go. 💪

@RoadmapMoney Bonus points if it has Stow-N-Go

@JLCollinsNH @awealthofcs Love @awealthofcs take on basically everything investing. Perspective is so important for investors....but it's not sexy.

"From 1994 to 2023, there was the dot-com bubble, a 50% crash, 9/11, a housing bubble, the Great Financial Crisis (which came with another 50%+ crash), a handful of wars, 3 recessions and a pandemic. …stock market was up 10% per year." @awealthofcs awealthofcommonsense.com/2024/04/30-yea…

"Bitcoin is designed to be self-custodied and used independent of traditional financial markets—and spot Bitcoin ETFs are simply wrapping self-sovereign assets into the very same market it was designed to avoid." - Me, in an upcoming article for @GOBankingRates

"But—in a way—spot Bitcoin ETFs undermine the mission of Bitcoin in the first place. Bitcoin was created in response to the Great Financial Crisis and to give owners access to a trustless monetary system that doesn’t rely on government or third-parties to facilitate transactions"

You should have a healthy distrust of these industries: - Healthcare - Education - Technology - Financial services Any I'm missing?

@SMB_Attorney $2.5 Million ($100k/yr). But requires paid off house. $5 Million is my "never think about money again" number.

How much money is enough? Today someone said $5 million ($200k per year at 4%). Makes sense to me. You?

@Hasizzel @WhiteBoardFin Except the spread on RH is no good 😕 and orders are externally routed so they can earn rebates. Shady stuff...

@WhiteBoardFin It’s cheaper to buy on Robinhood unless river is buying it with no fees fyi

Crypto bull run starts wen this happens again...

@Budgetdog_ Judging by the responses here....top happening in 6 months or less.

@WalletHacks But there are so many options for high fee alternative investment managers to take advantage of you! You're missing out!

As an accredited investor, I have access to investments that non-accredited investors cannot invest in. But most of them are trash! They’re worse than a similar low-cost fund from Vanguard or Fidelity or Schwab. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.
