When trying to become financially savvy.

No I know your reading the above title and thinking to yourself did this man just write savvy. Sometimes I feel like I’m older than I really am. Anyhooo lets get down to it. For some of us finances were a far far away topic depending on where and who was raising us. Money has been a sore topic for most families because even some of our parents didn’t really know much about it and or how it works. Outside of getting a job the idea of using money as a tool was pipe dream. That’s partly because some of our ancestors and parents weren’t able to get that outlook on life. When you’re only taught one way of earning this tool we call money it places cap on how much we can utilize our wages. The way that the world works now is completely foreign to most because people see that these social media influencers and other make it seem like lightwork. Not completely understanding what it takes to build a brand, become consistent in what you’re doing, and not being afraid to fail. If you pay close attention subscribers are the way of life now. To make it plain let’s say your charging $20 a month for each subscriber on a platform. We would simply need 1,000 peoples support which would earn us 20k a month. Most of us don’t even scratch half of that a month. So my challenge to you is to see where you can be a service or guide to mankind without retirement being your end goal.

Will you be left out again?

Some of us still are skeptical about crypto. While crypto isn’t easy to grasp it may be more simple than trying to understand our current tax system in my opinion. If you have ever taken the time to check out how many law terms and legalese the system has to innodate us with unnecessary terms and crypto isn’t that complicated. Now I’m not trying to say that certain cyrptos are the next best thing compared to the dollar but some can definitely help with keeping your money from loosing all of its value the longer we save it in certain institutions. Educate yourself in the financial realm and work to fortify your hard earned funds to insure than you have a better opportunity to increase your chances at becoming wealthy. Never forget to do your own research trust no one on what to invest in.

Is It The Right Game?

Looking at the way the world works. A main question that I ask myself daily is have I been playing the right game. For some of you who don’t know I love video games mainly because of my interesting imagination and I like challenging myself against others ideas. By ideas I mean their finished products in the medium of a video game etc. God of war series. Then like most of us we revert back to what our parents or the people who were raising us told us. Got to school then college then don’t live above your means etc. Those were great for their times but like all humans we have to adapt to the current markets. Watching people spend upwards of 15 years at one company and then hearing about them getting fired with little to no experience elsewhere is heartbreaking. So if your like me I’m always curious about other means to providing for myself family and loved ones. Sometimes to my detriment because of my extremely high optimism. Now with the a little bit of experience of living on this beautiful marble I realized we have to pave our own lanes. It doesn’t mean that we have to completely reinvent the wheel. When you think about it most of the ways to make money are a remix of other things that have already been proven to work. The main problem is some of our inability to remain ourselves for financial gain. Stocks, real estate, streaming, reviews, blogs, websites, and affiliate marketing are just a few examples where being whoever you are authentically can payoff in the long run. Are you ready to press start and learn along the way? Or will the barriers of your mind, teachings, fear, and financial situation continue to stall you out.

Stocks and Etf Assets.

Ahhhh the beauty of financial literacy. I’m still a noob in this category so this will be a very simple explanation. I get straight to the point in my content. Stocks are based on the individual company value your doing your research on. A etf is a group of stocks inside of an index so that if one stock goes down it doesn’t heavily effect your portfolio if one company takes a massive hit.

Procrastination is Harmful.

Some say that its the rush and pressure of waiting until the last minute. I think that its the ability to continue to make said thing or task less important than it is. Sadly it leads to more anxiety and clouded thoughts. Yes I do it sometimes depending on the severity of what it is that needs to be done. Even though procrastination is not the best way to knock out a to do list but in my mind it feels right. So take the necessary steps to get rid of this horrible habit. My first and most important step is to do whatever it is that needs to be done ASAP. Regardless of how we feel about it. The task doesn’t have to be perfect by any means. As long as it doesn’t look like a 2 year old put it together and its professional get it done! You’re going to make mistakes and that’s alright. Be comfortable being uncomfortable and watch the leaps and bounds you make over time. Always be learning but don’t get stuck into information overload. Learn then execute. Baby step life and you may be surprised in how fast you will go from scooting, crawling, stumbling, walking and to eventually running. We maybe uncoordinated for a while but eventually some form will kick in if you have a mentor around to coach us along the way.

Be safe out here.

A little adds up.

The older I get the more I learn about money. I was taught that you had to work hard to get it and that it doesn’t come easy. Most of that framework came from many sources in my community. The real game is how much time are you putting in to learn about it. Some of us weren’t taught the value of trades relationships trust and juys being a good human. We live in a world where its eat or be eaten theoretically speaking. Its me against the world. Its doesn’t have to be that way. I you’ll have noticed there are plenty of people making a great living doing what they love. What most don’t pay attention is the time it took them to develop what they needed to be successful. Anything worth having isn’t easy to obtain. Building a community of trust around many subjects is key. Find something you like or love and have experience in that could help someone else. We have to escape our comfort zones to be better and level up! Also come through and see how $20 can turn into a $1200 investment into your personal portfolio.

Is it all worth it?

Now what I’m saying is a bit broad but may be something to ponder upon. Most of us leave home daily to make money to bring back home to provide for our family, loved ones or whomever we deem need our provision. Looking at the price to maintain living its getting harder and harder to live a life we can call worthy. Working just to survive isnt worthy to most of us (it may just be my own outlook). Many say all I do is work eat shower sleep then repeat. I don’t know about yal but life can be much more than that. We just have to decide how to get more out of living on the daily basis. When is the last time you’ve literally just done nothing all day to rest and clear your mind. Its healthy to do so and no I’m not a doctor but I think we can all agree that a clear mind and rested body does wonders for longevity. Money makes the world go round and if you don’t have it your personal world starts to spiral into a vortex of nothingness. This is where having that burning desire to do more and be more kicks in for most of us. I’ve been a entrepreneur all my life I just never took the time to hone in on that part of myself because I wasn’t always around people who wanted to think outside the box. Therefore I’ve stuck to depending on jobs to get me through instead of betting on myself and educating myself along the way. Now yes I’ve tried a few things here and there but without the mentorship community and other essentials they never took off because I wasn’t moving correctly. That’s when I took the time to develop the skills I need within me. Its a never ending process and the more people we come in contact with the more experience we gather along the way. So let’s get back to the subject above. A job is worth it as long as we are making moves along the way. Jobs are using us just like we are using them. Make the most of it. Use those same resources your making at work to dive deeper into what you want out of life. Look for different jobs. Budget better. Start investing. Check to see how much you can put into your 401k and see how much the company matches. Slow n steady wins the race. Consistency determination and your why will keep you moving forward. If those don’t work don’t be afraid to ask for help from people who want you to do and be better. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

In elon we trust?

So if you guys have been paying attention. The entrepreneurial mongol may have just bought twitter. Now with this being another tech space I have a theory that he may bring his coin into utility. Now I don’t have any evidence on this just simply looking at the way that he makes his moves in business this would add to his wealth. By no means is this financial advise. Still choose wisely and with creditable financial people and institutions before making any investments.
