The aveage age is like 70…
Great duo amazing episode so much gems
Elderly people might be able to downsize their home to get equity out, or even do the reverse mortgage equity release. I worked in that industry years ago and would one day consider doing that myself.
I just saw another podcast, in England, where they said that life expectancy had gone down to an average of 63?
The Rebel Finance school is FREE, their course started again this week much recommended.
great insights
Now this is SOLID Financial advice????????????
I only have a mortgage and probably will pay it off before I'm 40
This guest is not here to solve your financial problems; they are here to harvest leads for their ecosystem.
The content is a "Gateway Drug" strategy. They offer common-sense, high-level behavioral advice (don't spend what you don't have) to build trust, then lock the viewer into a proprietary system (their apps, their books, their courses) that creates long-term brand loyalty.
Howes asks questions that are essentially prompts for Kamel to recite pre-rehearsed soundbites about "inner peace" and "financial freedom." It is a scripted interaction designed to create social proof, not to stress-test the advice.
I still use a Mr. COFFEE from Walmart. And, it is fine. ??
You can't buy a house with 25 percent of take home ????unless you make 200k and buy a 300k house
Appreciate you guys for this one. Lord knows a lot of us needed this one. ????????
Debt freedom starts when you stop trying to look secure and start making decisions that actually make you secure.
Thank youuuuuu so much ????????
Hiiiii ??????? I had told you about the Mercedes, hadn't I? Yeah. That's it. ?????????????????????
I am glad to know that I am doing better than most, according to this guy. I never downloaded Tiktok and live well below my means.
One of the few podcasts I'll still watch because the podcast is actually positive and not consistently doom and gloom. Thanks for not adding to that noise
16:30 "Good, I didn't want you to go." ???? girl that would break my heart!!!
Thank you. It's great to see your videos
Lewis Howes is a good guy too
Fro. Free freedom
Awesome guy
