1. I have built up over 200k portfolio before i ever needed to borrow anything from my parents.

2. If i really wanted too i could buy multiple properties right now, with minimal effort. you don't have any dependents and you are 43, one wold think would have accumulated more wealth given having such low expenses month over month despite having your time worth minimal value.





did you go to the opera with your girlfriend?

Spoiler!
240k Canadian $ is 144k British£. That would barely get you half a property in my area lol

Maxed out TFSA, have 150k~ in various stocks/bonds, 25k in regular savings, 15k~ across various other accounts.

I also own my property, mortgage-free and rent out a room to a friend, so a bit of extra passive income. Tempted every day just to sell everything and travel for the next decade or so and bang escorts/sloots then die at like 40.

I opted for the pension instead of our version of a 401k, but I have my own voluntary 401k as well that is pretty poverty for my age bracket. But jakes on them as 90% of them will have to live off their 401k while I'll be leaching off the taxpayers well into my 90's blowing my poverty 250k retirement 'savings' on hookers and ****.
Poverty gov retirement

I have pension and TSP

I have poverty savings but I will have my home mortgage fully paid not long from now so I'm probably ahead of the curve overall.

Retirement accounts hovering somewhere around 155-160k USD right now.

EDIT: This thread is inspiring. After skimming through it and seeing all these young guys with high numbers, it makes me want to hustle harder and patch holes in my own financial game. Just these past few months I increased my salary by over 100%, but I could be doing more in terms of passive income. I am saving about 65% of my over six figure salary right now, and will be saving more in the new year. I am invested in cryptos and other risky ventures, but most of my money is in index funds. I need to find other income streams.

Sorry, but there are plenty of people whose parents help them and they still amount to nothing. A bunch of kids I went to college with had parents paying for every cent, big monthly spending stipends, one kid even was given 50k cash to get his "adult" life started. Not one of them is doing better off financially than I am right now because they don't have a concept of hard work, money management, investing, or responsibility.

Does having well off parents help? Yes. Is it an automatic path to success? Absolutely not

You seem low-key obsessed with another dude.

Doesnt change the fact that it is still more than what you have accumulated in a retirement/saving account.

Excellent point except that it's not remotely true. No mortgage on my other property, this one is 55% plus a bunch of other stuff. I'm not rich and never likely to be but got 3 times what you have

Not even going to lie, Damn near $0. I've lived my adult life so far in debt and buying chit and putting it on credit/financing it. So a good portion of my money went to bills to pay off **** i already have and am bored with. I had an epiphany and downgraded to the basic essentials, moved into an room in a house and going into extremely saving mode. I should be putting away close to $1000-$1500 a month easy with my current income. Have a side business going that i'll be working with aswell.

~100k in total assets cash/401k.
Just turned 27.

I've read the idea is to have about a years salary saved up by the time you are 30.
