How I Retired at 30 Years Old (with a Day Job)

I retired when I was 30 years old, and today at 39 I make over $1M/year. In this video, I share my story of being a corporate slave and the exact steps I took to retire by 30. By the end of this video, you'll have a game plan to do the same!

Even with 100K+ subs, this still may be one of the most underrated channels out there!
So many knowledge gems 💎

I love that: "finding work you never want to retire from"

I'm 26, turning 27 this April, and currently living with my grandparents(my mom is a single parent but she married 4 years ago). I want to work as a farmer but here in the Philippines, being a farmer sucks because our government doesn't give a crap about farmers. Now, I'm currently studying to become a front-end developer and a video editor because my mom is doing some YouTube videos about cooking and vlogging some stuff and I want to help her with that. I want to be able to work from home by being a farmer and helping my mom do the things that she likes doing.

I don't know who Needs to Hear This but " Greatness is often built when no one is watching ". So don't give up and keep going

Watching this now as a 30-year-old intern making minimum wage

😅😭

This is why I'm changing the name of the FIRE movement to Financial Independence Recreational Employment. No one really retires at 30. I live on a Caribbean Island and even I don't just want to sit on a beach all day. You should interview me about it 🤑😛

Inspirational video Noah! Tons of practical advice. I’m also 39, still far from retiring early. 2:32 Hey, I’m based in Thailand.

Launching my 5th side hustle/business in a few weeks after four failed past attempts. Videos like this inspire me to never give up! We increase our luck each time we try.

I'm not interested in retiring young, what I want is the freedom to do what I enjoy every day. For me, that's building my digital agency!

My wife and I want to have the ability to give to churches, fund orphanages, start schools, help free kids from sex slavery, and help people. My wife is diagnosed with multi mental illnesses and we been together for 20 years with 2 children. I am the only one who works. So, I work a job and have a few side hustles that aren't going anywhere. I Have been working so hard to build a life of freedom (which hasn't taken off) that I am struggling to enjoy the life I have. But I am determined to see this through! Thank you for the video!

I want to work in the movie industry. This year I’m starting a YouTube channel to free up my time. You have been doing incredibly helpful!

[WillsThoughts]

Watched it all. I agree and love your philisophy here. The one point of feedback is The title can be overpromising. I followed most, if not all of these tips, but maybe I’m just not a good entrepreneur and I can’t get any of my side hustles to takeoff after five to six years and ten on youtube. I think a more realistic route for me is to live below my means and choose a job I love and try to grow my salary, while seeking remote opportunities that allow for travel.
I think a lot of social media hypes Tim Ferriss and all the success stories like ali but there’s a survivorship bias there. Not all of us are great entrepreneurs or great on YouTube. I’ve put out over 1500 YouTube videos and started many hustles, but I still suck at it. I’m trying to improve. I haven’t given up. I’m patient. But I think the lesson is that sometimes the employee route may be a more viable one that still allows you to find your passion. Not saying that is easy either. It’s tough to find work you’re passionate about that pays well for many normal citizens. They often have to choose one or the other to compromise. But it’s a struggle worth overtaking

I’m taking this to heart. I’m starting my YouTube channel and documenting my journey in entrepreneurship and personal finance. Planting this seed early!

Hey, Noah, 20 year-old engineering student here. Discovered your channel through your conversation with Richard Bald Bearded Cooper and couldn´t be happier to be watching your content. Thank you for all the information you give. It is much appreciated. God bless you

Dropping bombs as always, love these kinds of videos, Noah. 25 now and aiming for retirement at 30 as well! Wife and I are building up our cash flowing rental portfolio as well as other more passive income streams to supplement our passion project businesses that we want to do til we die. Your videos definitely keep the fire lit and get the wheels turning, thanks man.

This was way better advice than 98% of what is out there.

Sometimes having your back against a wall can be a good thing. I worked as an employee for 20 years, always made decent money (85-90k), and I ended up getting arrested and facing some serious charges. Charges were dropped but the employer wasn't interested in waiting around to find out, they bounced me. So now I was in my late 30s with a family to support, lost my job, no college degree, and experience in one specific field that would never hire me again with felony charges. I was completely screwed. I had no idea how to start or run a business and no skills outside my very narrow experience. Thankfully I had some money in the bank. I took several courses online, studied for months, and threw my money at my business idea. The business did 2.5 million the first year and now I'm making more money than I ever thought possible

Excellent content Noah! It feels like an updated summary of 4HWW for 2021. Much needed and well done.

[majormaximus]

I think the videos where you talk from your OWN experience and lessons are way more powerful than all the other crap. The ones chasing the tail of celebrities.

[Candide]

I'm turning 43 later this year, and I am definitely interested in how I can retire by 30. Saving this one to watch later!
