1
casio f91w used toyota that's fully paid off fidelity brokerage account roth ira
2
that's fully maxed out costco membership amex food cash preferred
3
if you have any of these things
4
or combination maybe even have all of them
5
that's basically the full financial freedom starter pack of 2026 this tells me
6
that you know you are very serious about investing
7
and having a good future providing for your family
8
and your kids one day while still being able to enjoy your youth enjoy your time
9
and have fun it shows me that you have a balance you're not
10
so overly hyperly fixated on money
11
and locked in to the point where you're not enjoying your life where you're just a slave to money
12
and not doing anything else
13
but you also are having a good outlook on life having
14
a good balance being able to still enjoy your time you know go
15
and seek new opportunities travel explore create good memories with your friends
16
and enjoy the life you have found the middle ground
17
which is right where you want to be at
18
and the younger you get here the longer time you have for your you know money to compound
19
and grow in the market and just accelerate your financial freedom
20
and these are the kind of markers
21
that just show me value in a human being
22
when i see someone young who has these kind of things
23
they have a used kind of beat up car
24
they have a fidelity account they have a roth ira
25
you know they wear a casio watch they might not wear the nicest clothes
26
they don't drive a bmw they don't have a house
27
that they can't afford they have a credit card that they're capitalizing their points off,
28
this just shows me that this is someone that I want to spend more time around.
29
This is someone that knows what they're doing, who has a good head on their shoulders, and just does the right thing,
30
even when other people aren't watching.
31
That's exactly what this tells me about other people.
32
Maybe I'm overanalyzing it, but I think more people need to start having this approach, especially the younger generation, right?
33
I'm 23 years old.
34
I was born in 2003.
35
A lot of people in my generation are so hyper fixated, obsessed with Instagram, social media, Snapchat, flexing their APs, Rolexes,
36
BMWs, Mercedes, buying a house at 23, you know, investment properties, real estate,
37
all this mumbo jumbo, like they're so obsessed with this stuff that they lose focus of what actually matters.
38
Take inspiration from people like Adam Sandler, people like Bill Gates, who they might have a lot of money,
39
but they live, they clearly do live so far below their means.
40
And they've mastered the craft of finding a balance between enjoying your money
41
and taking you know investing and saving seriously but not letting it control
42
and dictate your whole entire life and when you're at a young age
43
when you're starting off in your journey to financial freedom it's really hard to find that balance
44
and me myself i'm even struggling with it right i have all these things i was talking about
45
and i've done pretty well for myself up to this point
46
so much so like i've focused on investing and saving
47
so much the past couple years
48
that I do have this weird strong desire to just reward myself
49
and spend a large lump sum amount of money on like a new car
50
or like an investment property or like just something right I just
51
or a tattoo like I have this desire to do it
52
but I know in the back of my mind
53
that this desire giving into this desire is what sets people off right
54
they're on a good track you've already built the foundation in my opinion I've already built a very good foundation
55
and now that I have this foundation it's so easy and
56
so tempting to just just to stray off just a little bit
57
but straying off just a little bit can just lead to
58
a path of just making the wrong decisions buying the wrong
59
things putting money in places where it really shouldn't be going especially at my age especially
60
while i'm living at home and it's so challenging with social media
61
and seeing all these people all these kids flexing these nice stuff
62
and even though you know realistically a lot of them probably
63
aren't in the best financial situation even though they have these things
64
that doesn't make you want it any less right like let's say
65
i see someone with a kid
66
you know like 25 years old with a bmw m3 with a rolex living in brickle miami
67
you know he has a modded out you know uh valvetronic exhaust
68
and you know he's living at the beach eating all these
69
nice meals going to steak dinners every night obviously like in my mind i know
70
that even though this kid has of stuff he's probably not necessarily financially free i know
71
that but that doesn't make me want any of these things any less just
72
because i know that if
73
that makes sense right it's some it's like this weird psychological thing where even though you know
74
that that there's some lies behind that image that persona that
75
that person is giving off it still is attractive right it's there's still something attractive
76
and desirable about that lifestyle that we can't necessarily get rid of
77
but understanding what is behind that just makes it a lot easier to stay on track
78
and that is kind of the battle
79
that i'm facing right now i you know
80
i have a really good uh foundation for investments
81
i'm closing up on hitting 100k net worth at the age of 23
82
i have a fully paid off car you know
83
i don't dress super nice i don't spend a ridiculous amount of money the thing
84
that i spend the most amount of money on is literally groceries and food
85
and um i feel like i live a relatively frugal lifestyle given my financial circumstance
86
i live at home i save and invest two thousand dollars every single month
87
and i try to um only spend my money on things
88
that matters like i'm willing to spend a decent amount of money on food traveling new experiences
89
and creating memories with friends all right to me those things have always been worth the money
90
that doesn't mean i'm going to overspend
91
and you know put all my money towards that but it means
92
that when opportunities
93
that satisfy those criteria come up i am going to jump on them
94
i'm going to take advantage of them even if
95
that means spending a little bit extra money to achieve those things
96
and get those memories
97
because i know based on past experiences those things will always be worth
98
it to me whereas you know having a nice car having nice shoes having nice clothes
99
and buying a house those things aren't going to matter in the long run
100
i have experienced it myself i went from driving a 2005 honda civic
101
that literally broke down on the highway to getting a brand new 2023 toyota camry off the lot zero miles
102
and guess what it was fine it was cool for the first two weeks you know no one really cared
103
because it was a camry obviously
104
but like it was cool having a new nice reliable car
105
for the first two weeks for the first month for the first two months
106
and then it just becomes normal it becomes your everyday thing
107
and you start to appreciate it less and less and less
108
and even though you know
109
that's not the right way to go about it your brain psychologically cannot deter you from that path
110
when you have an old beat up used toyota that's fully paid off you don't have a car payment
111
and you're young automatically tells me
112
you don't care what other people think about you you care more about doing the right thing
113
and creating the steps in order to work towards financial freedom
114
and work towards your dreams rather than the image that you give off to other people.
115
When you have a Casio F91W or any Casio in general, it tells me that you don't care about having this Rolex.
116
You could probably go in debt to buy this Rolex, to buy this
117
Omega Speedmaster or whatever, show off to other people.
118
You care more about practicality, usability, while you still have some level of class and fashion to yourself.
119
When you have a Fidelity traditional brokerage account
120
that you're putting money towards every single month it tells me
121
that you're locked in and that you understand the value of sacrificing now
122
so that you can have more later
123
when you have a Roth IRA that's fully maxed out
124
or you're working on fully maxing out every single year tells me
125
that you have the ability to critically think
126
and to save now even you know you're saving
127
and putting in money now for something
128
that you can't touch until like you're 65 until years and years 50 years plus down the future.
129
That tells me that you have financial discipline.
130
You understand the value of a dollar and you understand
131
that sacrificing something now can give you 10 times that return in the future when it's more valuable as well.
132
And it just shows me so much about the type of person you are.
133
When you have a Costco membership, it tells me that, I don't know, to be honest, I don't buy that much stuff from Costco,
134
but I have it under my mom because I get gas from Costco.
135
So that one doesn't really tell me much, but it shows me that you also understand the value of money, that you understand
136
that buying things in bulk keeping it in the freezer using it over a period of time
137
if you do the math is actually cheaper yeah like you can go buy a ribeye for twenty dollars
138
or you can buy you know the whole entire free uh ribeye
139
that isn't cut yet from costco for 120 get like 13
140
to 12 steaks from it for ten dollars a steak same quality
141
but you save money and
142
that just says a lot about the type of person you are especially
143
if you have these things at a young age the next thing is amex blue cash preferred
144
now it doesn't necessarily matter what credit card you have but
145
if you have something that's you know a little bit more niche like not i'm not like an amex gold
146
or amex platinum those are all kind of like flexor cards in my opinion they're not actually
147
that good but
148
if you have something like amex blue cash preferred uh chase sapphire preferred chase freedom flex discover
149
it secured all of those cards tell me a lot about the type of person you are honestly
150
if you want to know the type of person you are just tell them to pull out their wallet
151
and see what credit cards they have because
152
if they have all these flexor cards a lot of people have amex platinums
153
but they don't own a business a lot of people have amex golds
154
but they eat out all the time like a lot of these things just aren't adding up
155
they're getting the card for the wrong reason
156
and recently i actually switched credit cards um to the amex blue cash preferred
157
because i looked at my finances
158
i was like what am i spending the most amount of money on every single month
159
i realized it was food and gas mainly food and
160
when i say food i don't mean eating out i mean groceries i spent a lot of money in groceries
161
so i found that the amex blue cash prefer gives me six percent back on all groceries
162
which is insane very low annual fee
163
and you know i just decided it was the best card for me it's the way
164
that i'm going to be able to maximize on the stuff
165
that i already buy a lot of people buy these credit cards travel credit cards
166
and then they start traveling a lot of people buy these
167
credit cards that are good on gas
168
and then they start going on you know using more gas get a card
169
that already supports what you already spend the most amount of
170
money on without having to pay extremely high annual fees
171
or having to go out of your way to get all these incentives like
172
if you have to spend five thousand dollars in the first month
173
but you normally only spend two thousand dollars in the first month is it really worth
174
it to spend you know 50 more just to get
175
that bonus probably not
176
and that's why this card works perfectly for me you know
177
i honestly haven't heard a lot of people talk about this card either amex blue cash preferred um
178
if you're someone like me who spends a lot of money on groceries on eating shows me
179
that you're probably locked in on your diet locked in on your fitness
180
and you should probably consider getting a card that maximizes the groceries
181
that you buy or you know the food that you eat out
182
or the gas that you get so yeah i mean i've loved this card
183
so far and
184
if you guys want to get a card i think
185
i'm pretty sure i have a um not an affiliate link
186
but like because i got the card
187
if i share a link it gives me some money it gives you guys some extra money i believe
188
so i'll put that link if in the description
189
if you guys uh do want to get the amx blue
190
cash preferred just like a shared uh friends referred link but yeah
191
if you have any of these things you guys are already doing good just keep it up stay locked in
192
and just do the right thing

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
