- 0:00SPEAKER_00: I hired a great personal trainer.
- 0:01SPEAKER_00: It changed everything.
- 0:03SPEAKER_00: Better form, better results.
- 0:05SPEAKER_00: It was amazing.
- 0:06SPEAKER_01: I didn't hire anyone.
- 0:07SPEAKER_01: I watched YouTube, read the books, and did the research myself.
- 0:11SPEAKER_01: I'm good.
- 0:11SPEAKER_01: I hired a trainer too.
- 0:13SPEAKER_02: And we mostly ate pizza at Planet Fitness.
- 0:17SPEAKER_02: He called it a recovery meal.
- 0:21SPEAKER_02: This is triple the money.
- 0:22SPEAKER_02: And what we just told you about personal trainers is exactly how most people handle their money.
- 0:27SPEAKER_02: And it will cost some of you millions of dollars.
- 0:31SPEAKER_00: Okay, so here's how it works.
- 0:33SPEAKER_00: When it comes to getting financial advice, there are exactly three types of people.
- 0:37SPEAKER_00: You hire someone great, like Arnold Schwarzenegger, as your personal trainer.
- 0:40SPEAKER_00: He comes up with a perfect plan.
- 0:42SPEAKER_00: There's real accountability.
- 0:44SPEAKER_00: The results?
- 0:45SPEAKER_00: Exceptional.
- 0:47SPEAKER_01: That's not realistic.
- 0:48SPEAKER_00: It's an analogy.
- 0:49SPEAKER_00: Stay with me.
- 0:50SPEAKER_00: Type two, you do it yourself.
- 0:52SPEAKER_00: There's no trainer.
- 0:53SPEAKER_00: You watch YouTube videos, you read, you learn the fundamentals.
- 0:57SPEAKER_00: You make decent progress.
- 0:59SPEAKER_00: Slower, but you get there.
- 1:01SPEAKER_01: That's literally me.
- 1:02SPEAKER_00: We know.
- 1:03SPEAKER_00: Type three, you hire someone.
- 1:05SPEAKER_00: They look official.
- 1:06SPEAKER_00: They even have a website.
- 1:08SPEAKER_00: They sound confident.
- 1:10SPEAKER_00: And then they take you to Planet Fitness and tell you pizza's a good recovery meal.
- 1:18SPEAKER_00: We know.
- 1:19SPEAKER_01: So, which one wins?
- 1:21SPEAKER_00: Type 1 wins.
- 1:22SPEAKER_00: Type 2 wins.
- 1:24SPEAKER_00: Type 3 wins absolutely nothing.
- 1:28SPEAKER_00: They actually go backwards.
- 1:29SPEAKER_02: Wait, I went backwards?
- 1:32SPEAKER_00: Financially speaking, yes, backwards.
- 1:35SPEAKER_02: Wait, I ate so much pizza though.
- 1:37SPEAKER_00: Now, this isn't just a gym analogy.
- 1:39SPEAKER_00: This is happening with actual money to actual people.
- 1:42SPEAKER_02: Like who?
- 1:43SPEAKER_00: Nicholas Cage.
- 1:44SPEAKER_00: He had career earnings of$150 million.
- 1:48SPEAKER_00: He had a business manager managing his earnings.
- 1:50SPEAKER_01: $150 million?
- 1:52SPEAKER_01: That guy's set for life.
- 1:53SPEAKER_00: His manager made some terrible investments and he lost it all.
- 1:57SPEAKER_00: He had to sell his property and pay a lot of money to the IRS.
- 2:00SPEAKER_02: His properties like his apartments or his castles.
- 2:05SPEAKER_00: He owned multiple castles.
- 2:07SPEAKER_02: Castles?
- 2:08SPEAKER_00: And dinosaur bones.
- 2:09SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry.
- 2:10SPEAKER_02: What?
- 2:11SPEAKER_00: He had a collection of dinosaur bones.
- 2:14SPEAKER_00: Real ones.
- 2:15SPEAKER_02: He had dinosaur bones and he lost them?
- 2:18SPEAKER_02: That's genuinely upsetting.
- 2:20SPEAKER_00: 150 million dollars.
- 2:22SPEAKER_00: Castles, bones, all gone.
- 2:25SPEAKER_00: Just because he didn't vet his guy.
- 2:27SPEAKER_00: Do you guys remember The Wolf of Wall Street?
- 2:28SPEAKER_00: I'm sure you've seen it.
- 2:29SPEAKER_00: It's based off a real person.
- 2:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I love Leonardo DiCaprio.
- 2:34SPEAKER_01: That's genuinely the best movie ever.
- 2:36SPEAKER_00: They thought they had Arnold Schwarzenegger, but they had the pizza guy.
- 2:39SPEAKER_00: He stole millions of dollars from his clients.
- 2:42SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 2:43SPEAKER_01: So how do you know who's who?
- 2:45SPEAKER_00: Here's what nobody teaches you.
- 2:46SPEAKER_00: Before you follow someone's financial advice, a YouTuber, a TikToker, or someone's uncle, here's what you have to know.
- 2:53SPEAKER_00: First question Are they making money from you or with you?
- 2:57SPEAKER_02: What's the difference?
- 2:58SPEAKER_00: A great personal trainer makes money because you get results and come back.
- 3:03SPEAKER_00: They need you to win.
- 3:04SPEAKER_00: The pizza trainer makes money whether you get results or not.
- 3:07SPEAKER_00: They don't need you to win.
- 3:09SPEAKER_00: They just need you to keep paying.
- 3:10SPEAKER_00: So in finance, that would be A fiduciary advisor is required to act in your interest and not their commission.
- 3:21SPEAKER_02: Fiduciary.
- 3:22SPEAKER_02: That's a word I need to know.
- 3:23SPEAKER_00: Write it down.
- 3:24SPEAKER_00: It's the most important word in personal finance.
- 3:27SPEAKER_00: Question two.
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: Are they showing real results or do they just sound smart?
- 3:31SPEAKER_02: How can you tell?
- 3:33SPEAKER_00: The pizza trainer will tell you all the right words.
- 3:35SPEAKER_00: Recovery, macros.
- 3:37SPEAKER_00: It sounds like he knows everything.
- 3:39SPEAKER_00: But Warren Buffett, the greatest investor alive, gives advice so simple that it sounds boring.
- 3:45SPEAKER_00: He tells you to do things like buy good companies, hold long term, and don't panic.
- 3:50SPEAKER_01: That's it.
- 3:51SPEAKER_00: That made him worth over a hundred billion dollars.
- 3:55SPEAKER_00: Boring works.
- 3:56SPEAKER_02: My trainer used big words and I ate pizza.
- 4:00SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
- 4:01SPEAKER_00: Big words, bad results.
- 4:03SPEAKER_00: Simple words, great results.
- 4:06SPEAKER_00: That's the pattern.
- 4:07SPEAKER_00: Simple works.
- 4:08SPEAKER_00: Question three.
- 4:09SPEAKER_00: Would the GOAT approve of this?
- 4:11SPEAKER_02: The goat of what?
- 4:12SPEAKER_00: Whatever you're doing.
- 4:14SPEAKER_00: Would Arnold approve of pizza at Planet Fitness?
- 4:17SPEAKER_02: No.
- 4:18SPEAKER_00: Would Warren Buffett approve of a guy charging you 1% every year to put your money in the same fund that you could do yourself in three minutes?
- 4:25SPEAKER_01: No.
- 4:26SPEAKER_00: Ask yourself that question before you follow anyone's advice.
- 4:29SPEAKER_00: Now let's talk about why this matters so much.
- 4:32SPEAKER_00: Austin, you do your thing.
- 4:33SPEAKER_00: What would that look like?
- 4:34SPEAKER_01: I put my money in an index fund.
- 4:36SPEAKER_01: Low fee?
- 4:37SPEAKER_01: I don't touch it.
- 4:39SPEAKER_00: Good.
- 4:39SPEAKER_00: That's type two, the self-taught guy.
- 4:41SPEAKER_00: Let's do the math on that.
- 4:42SPEAKER_00: You start at 17,$500 a month.
- 4:45SPEAKER_00: A simple low-fee index fund, 10% annual return, no advisor.
- 4:50SPEAKER_02: For how long?
- 4:51SPEAKER_00: 40 years, and guess what?
- 4:53SPEAKER_00: By that time, you'll have$3 million.
- 4:56SPEAKER_02: $3 million?
- 4:58SPEAKER_02: Did it all myself.
- 5:00SPEAKER_00: Now what if instead of doing it all yourself, you hire someone and they charge 1% a year?
- 5:06SPEAKER_01: It's 1%.
- 5:07SPEAKER_01: It can't be that different.
- 5:08SPEAKER_00: Same input for 40 years,$500 a month at a 1% fee.
- 5:14SPEAKER_00: That's gonna be just over$2 million.
- 5:17SPEAKER_02: Wait.
- 5:18SPEAKER_02: You paid$760,000 in fees?
- 5:26SPEAKER_01: Did the guy that put me in the same index fund I was already in?
- 5:29SPEAKER_00: Most of the time, yes.
- 5:31SPEAKER_00: Over 30 years, 90% of fund managers fail to beat the index fund.
- 5:36SPEAKER_02: They charge you more and they do worse than what you could have done yourself.
- 5:41SPEAKER_00: For most people starting out, yes.
- 5:44SPEAKER_00: That's the math.
- 5:45SPEAKER_02: So what is the move?
- 5:46SPEAKER_00: The crockpot move.
- 5:48SPEAKER_00: You pick a low-fee index fund, something like the Vanguard Target Date Fund.
- 5:52SPEAKER_00: Annual fee, 0.08%.
- 5:55SPEAKER_01: How much is that actually?
- 5:57SPEAKER_00: 1% of a million dollars is$10,000 a year.
- 6:01SPEAKER_00: 0.08% of a million dollars?
- 6:04SPEAKER_00: That's about$800 a year.
- 6:06SPEAKER_02: 800 versus$10,000 to do the same thing?
- 6:09SPEAKER_00: The fund diversifies automatically and rebalances itself.
- 6:13SPEAKER_00: It gets more and more conservative as you get older.
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: You don't call anyone, you don't pay anyone 1%.
- 6:18SPEAKER_01: You just said it?
- 6:20SPEAKER_00: You said it.
- 6:20SPEAKER_01: Like a crock pot.
- 6:22SPEAKER_01: Okay, what if you find a great financial advisor?
- 6:25SPEAKER_01: Like genuinely great.
- 6:27SPEAKER_00: If you find the Arnold, yeah, it's worth it.
- 6:31SPEAKER_02: Wait, you're agreeing with him?
- 6:33SPEAKER_00: A truly great advisor, one who's a real fiduciary, is fee-only, and has a truly great track record, is worth every penny.
- 6:40SPEAKER_00: They keep you from panic selling when the market crashes.
- 6:43SPEAKER_00: They optimize your taxes, they have a real strategy with genuine value.
- 6:47SPEAKER_01: That's what I've been saying.
- 6:49SPEAKER_00: The problem is, the pizza guy wears the same outfit as Arnold.
- 6:52SPEAKER_02: Well, do I need one right now?
- 6:54SPEAKER_00: You don't need to find an Arnold right now.
- 6:56SPEAKER_00: Just make sure you don't hire the pizza guy.
- 6:58SPEAKER_00: The crookpot works, so just do that right now.
- 7:01SPEAKER_02: You can do this yourself, starting right now at 17, and you don't need anyone.
- 7:06SPEAKER_02: And if you do hire someone, make sure they're a fiduciary.
- 7:10SPEAKER_02: Or you'll lose your dinosaur bones.
- 7:12SPEAKER_00: Here's the thing: Nicolas Cage had$150 million and lost all of it.
- 7:17SPEAKER_00: Castles, dinosaur bones, everything.
- 7:20SPEAKER_00: Just because he didn't properly vet his guy.
- 7:22SPEAKER_02: Oh, the dinosaur bones.
- 7:24SPEAKER_00: The wolf on Wall Street stole millions of dollars from his clients.
- 7:28SPEAKER_00: He sounded like Arnold, but he was the pizza guy.
- 7:31SPEAKER_01: So how do you protect yourself?
- 7:33SPEAKER_00: Three questions.
- 7:34SPEAKER_00: Always.
- 7:34SPEAKER_00: Is this person making money from me or with me?
- 7:38SPEAKER_00: Are they showing me real results or do they just sound smart?
- 7:41SPEAKER_00: And would the goat of this field approve?
- 7:44SPEAKER_00: And if you're 17 with no financial advisor in your life yet, that's fine.
- 7:48SPEAKER_00: You're actually in a great position.
- 7:50SPEAKER_00: The crock pot move.
- 7:51SPEAKER_00: Low fee index fund, couple hundred dollars a month.
- 7:54SPEAKER_00: Don't touch it, and just wait 40 years.
- 7:56SPEAKER_02: We're triple the money.
- 7:57SPEAKER_02: We know more than your financial advisor.
- 8:00SPEAKER_01: Don't get wolf on Wall Street.
- 8:02SPEAKER_00: Vet your people, find fiduciaries, get your crock pot if you want to.
- 8:06SPEAKER_02: And don't lose the dinosaur bones.
