What's the Ultimate Financial Goal? [How to Prioritize Money]

Which are the most important financial goals and how do you prioritize your money? Should you pay off debt before investing or can you spend a little to create that business to make extra money? We're tackling the most important questions in financial planning and personal finance in today's livestream!

With all the financial advice coming at you from TV and online, it can be confusing to make sense of it all. Should you listen to the people like Dave Ramsey and pay off debt before doing anything? Should you invest in stocks and hope you earn more than the interest on debt? What about making enough money to make the other two financial goals easier?

In this live stream, we'll talk about the biggest money tips in personal finance and how to prioritize your money. I'll show you how to find balance in your financial future and manage your money better. It's going to be a great video on reaching those best financial goals and I'm excited about answering your questions.

We're doing these live streams every weekend, Sunday's at 1pm eastern/10am pacific. I love the interaction with community and it's a great opportunity to answer your money questions. Join the community and join us live!

The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when you finally achieve! But do not rush things. Anything worth having is worth waiting for. :D Hi guys! It's me again. You might have seen me before but my desire to inspire more people is what keeps me pushing to reach out more. We own a cookie shop business in our college town. When we first started it, we just graduated college and were living in our car with very little direction, just a huge passion to be successful. I started it out of a local bagel shop in their off hours at night with my boyfriend, Bran. It was a crazy experience but it worked! We became a success! And how we have our first storefront location (a second one currently under construction but launching soon!) We started it to fund a year long backpacking trip around the world and to be successful while living the life of our dreams.

I wish I had seen your original analysis for these 10 stocks you have in your M1 portfolio. Do you have a video that you've covered your vetting process for choosing these? You've got such a great knack for balance and growth that I really want to emulate. Thank you so much for all your videos!

I will like to see you do a video on stock vs Rental ...investing cash in the stock market vs loans for rental from the banks... inconsideration of my first comment...

Congratulations on the channel growth! I recently subscribed to your channel, looking for ways to get my finances & investments in check. Especially since I started a family late in life, I'm 47 now with a 3 & 5-year-old and plans to have a couple more children.

I really like how you are educating people what to look for in stocks and investing. Do you do emails or phone calls? I want a true guide to getting started in the markets for a beginner such as myself.

Hi Joseph. Thanks for the video. Love your content as usual. In your next Q&A could you discuss the potential impact of dollar cost averaging impact of etf investors on the broader market. Do you think that the popularity of this strategy may act as a mechanism that slows down stock market declines?

Beating market by 10% and making a 1000.00 a year I get it. I think it’s better than have a rental with a mortage 550.00 and renting it out for 750.00 or 800.00 and you only making a return 200.00 or 250.00 and pray nothing doesn’t break...

Hey Joseph, I was wondering if you can give me an opinion on the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX). It seems to be hovering around its support level but has not reached its all-time low yet. Is the risk high if i hold it for the next 6 months? Thanks for all the great tips!

Hi please tell us if it is a good idea to buy timber and gold, silver, etc and or real estate for rentals for someone 58 yrs old rather than stocks or not. Thanks a million !
