Techlead : retiring form youtube
Techlead : how i retired as an ex-youtuber

[agoogleviewer]

"How I retired..." I worked for 5 years, (not counting the 20 years of education that gave me those 5 years of job) and now I'm still working as a youtuber, here is me selling me for a sponsor

[mrwoodcat]

the sudden change from a depressed ex-google, ex-nasa, millionaire asian stuck in the middle of las vegas to a traveling self-helf guru feels so uncanny

Here is the answer to the video title. How I retired in 5 years:

1- I knew exactly what I needed. specific goal or vision.
2- I figured how much I need to sustain this goal or lifestyle.
3- Once I got to the amount of money I needed, I quit the full-time job.
4- I focused on something I prefer doing, which is making youtube videos which in itself a full-time job but at least I'm really passionate about.
5- Now I make money regardless and I also have enough originally to sustain my original goal or vision which is literally
(living on my basic needs like any man on earth, knowing luxurious products are pointless/ it's only for women or kids, so spending only on basic important needs
such as food and house)

So therefore I'm free early in life, enjoying and I don't give a F what other people do running in circles to gain pointless stuff and sustain BS lifestyle, instead of living the
moment and enjoying the actual life.

Am 58 retiring next year but the thought of retirement gives me weakness. My apologies to everyone who have retired and filing social security during this time after putting in all those years of work just to lose everything to a problem you never imagined to happen. It’s so difficult for people who are retired and have no savings or loved ones to fall back on.

His ideas are soo all over the place it feels like a rant more than anything else

It's recommended to save at least 15% of your income in a 401k. You can use online calculators to estimate how much you should save based on your age and income. Saving at least 15% of your income in a 401(k) can help ensure that you have enough money to retire comfortably. By saving this much, you can take advantage of compound interest and potentially grow your retirement savings over time.

Love that you edit your videos with your own footage and not that generic stock video crap most youtubers use.

The average retiree, I believe, should have been able to have enough to last the rest of his days. I t just depends on choices during your working days, just as I came to realize later. Surprising how I still netted more $2m. by retirement. And this is while living in New York!

After he had promised us no more productivity stuff in his last video.

My strategy combines ETFs for dividends and growth, including JEPI, DIVO, QYLD, SCHD, and JEPQ. Last year, my dividends totaled $102K. but not sure how to mitigate risk thus far for this year.

This video was exactly what I needed. I've spent too long procrastinating by watching tutorials without ever executing on any of my ideas. I need to let go of perfectionism.

[jdsartre]

did he answer the question in the video "How to actually make money"?

all i heard was be a full-stack developer and make an app when the opportunity presents

This is actually solid financial advice lol and probably the best financial advice summarized in a 10-minute video without all these long, drawn-out answers that these finance/lifestyle gurus feed you on those 2 hour long podcasts rambling on. Thanks TechLead!

I really see what helped him be successful was starting and finishing projects end to end, and being aware of opportunity when it was there. It's like setting up a faucet and letting all that gold flow through. And enjoying life day to day.

You’re lucky that you are a very good communicator. Even employees who can communicate well gets promoted at work more than employees who have more experience. Successful business men are good communicators. Your YouTube channel is successful because you communicate very well.

It has become harder to retire now than in the past. I was saving instead of investing for a very long time, and now I just have about $516k and I don't know how to make it grow, with all the inflation, into something tangible I could retire with. Any ideas?

[mrmovas]

I am from greece, I hope you had an amazing and relaxing trip here.
Funny to see that I am living like 10 to 20 minutes away from where you shot your videos.
