1
the other thing that people often talk about
2
and you cited earlier is the mobility
3
that renting gives you yeah your son was here a second
4
ago he's 16 years old yeah soon he'll be at the age where he's got his own place
5
and he's thinking about different career opportunities and i got ai's this big thing
6
so he might want to go to san francisco then he might want to go live in florence
7
and wherever else if he's bought a place there is a interesting sort of psychological
8
but also financial component to the fact
9
that it makes it harder for you to move with the opportunity of life
10
and if we are if if what people say about the future of work is true
11
that we're going to have many more careers in our lives than we did in the past one might assume
12
that we're also going to be more mobile and
13
so is there an argument to say
14
that buying a house might hurt my professional opportunities my ability to pursue professional opportunities the answer is possibly right
15
but here's the thing about rent rent's interestingly enough a major obligation right usually
16
when you go
17
and you do a lease you lock yourself into a one-year lease sometimes you lock yourself into a two-year lease
18
when you buy something and this is assuming
19
that you have the money to buy something steven look up
20
because you've got all the data at your fingertips here look
21
what the average length of time it takes to sell a home in the united states just just google
22
that right now
23
because what i will tell you is in certain markets you can put your home on the market
24
and you can sell it in less than 90 days now
25
some markets you can sell your home in less than 30 days in many cases you actually have more flexibility
26
when you own something than when you rent and that's
27
if you want to sell it it says the average time
28
from listing to sale is about 47 to 62 days from
29
listing to closing in 2025 including 16 days on the market and 30 to 45 days to close
30
That's called less than two months.
31
Even in hot markets, the process from putting a house on the market to legally selling it can take 1.5 to three months, meaning home equity isn't a quickly accessible investment.
32
Yeah, but do you think that's pretty quick?
33
90 days?
34
No, it is.
35
It is.
36
I mean, it takes you that much time to get out of a lease.
37
Exactly.
38
So here you've got a piece of property that you can turn around and sell in less than 90 days.
39
Now, this is the US.
40
You can't do that.
41
Like, for instance, I live in Italy.
42
That could be very hard to do that in Italy.
43
But in the US, you've got something that's in a good market.
44
It's liquid.
45
The other thing is you can rent it, right?
46
You're actually not trapped.
47
If you start to build equity in your home and you pay your mortgage down slightly, next thing you know, you're able to rent that property and you can still move.
48
Today, people are taking their homes and they're Airbnb-ing them.
49
What I really want for people is the chance to be financially free.
50
There's also an age at which it doesn't matter if you own.
51
You know, once you start to get older and you've built financial security, you get in your 50s or your 60s or your 70s
52
and you just want to travel and you don't want to own anything, that's a different stage of life.
53
So the question just becomes, the money that you make, I go back to the 90,000-hour comment.
54
When you work 90,000 hours over your lifetime, what's your plan to keep some of this money?
55
You have to have a pay-yourself-first plan.
56
That has to be your number one priority, is that when you earn money, the first person who you're going to pay is you.
57
if you say you know what i watched steven
58
and i saw david and i've seen a bunch of other people on his show
59
and i'm not going to buy a house okay then you
60
have to pay yourself first more now i go around the
61
world for the last 30 years starting with oprah with the automatic millionaire i launched this book on oprah
62
and i talked about you have to save one hour day of your income
63
and people will get on these social media boards and be like i can't save 10 of my income
64
I can't live off 90% of my income.
65
It's not possible I have to spend all of it, right?
66
Well, then that person who's renting and not buying a house, which is forced savings, is clearly never going to save.
67
So the other thing about buying a house is it does require forced savings because when you have a mortgage payment, part of that mortgage payment is paying down your debt.
68
And I teach you how to use a biweekly mortgage payment plan.
69
So you take a 30-year mortgage and you pay it off five years earlier.
70
And doing that can save you, depends on the size of the home, can save you $50,000 to $100,000 just in interest payments.
71
You talk about having a savings mindset
72
what is a savings mindset and how does one go about saving
73
if they are one of those people
74
that says listen i'm barely getting by as it is david
75
yeah how the hell am i going to save money
76
when i'm actually increasingly getting into more debt right now
77
so the first thing is you have to find your money right
78
so what i what i find steve is
79
when i talk to people most people don't know where their
80
money goes literally they don't know they're like i'm like how
81
much money you spend a month well i'm not really sure
82
how much money you spend a year well i'm not really sure you need to be sure
83
so you should be doing something to track where your money
84
goes now you can be sophisticated you can use an app
85
that will track where your money goes you can also take out a pad of paper
86
and i give people a seven day financial challenge for seven
87
days just bring a little pad of paper with you
88
and write down every single day where your money goes now why do i want people to do
89
that because most people today are spending money unconsciously i go back to these phones the fact
90
that i don't i don't even have to carry a wallet anymore right it's just click click click
91
and pay for things we've lost touch with spending money so
92
when people start to see what they're really spending it's a
93
wake-up call the biggest thing i've been sharing lately is what
94
does it take to blow ten thousand dollars a year per
95
day in terms of spending how much money do you need to spend a a day to blow $10,000.
96
Now show us the per here.
97
Now we happen to have these are we have pounds today, right?
98
So I'm holding, Stephen, right now I'm holding what is known as a brick.
99
So I don't know if your staff told you how much I'm holding here.
100
You know what, what'd you guess I'm holding?
101
It looks like maybe $5,000.
102
Okay, so this is a life-changing amount of money.
103
Stephen, this is $10,000, right?
104
And what does it take to blow $10,000
105
in a year per day how much money you have to
106
spend per day to go through ten thousand dollars i'll make
107
it easy for you the the answer is 27.40 a day
108
27.40 a day adds up equaling ten thousand dollars over the
109
year now before we go through where do you where do
110
you spend this money how do you waste 27.40 a day the question becomes if you didn't waste 27.40 a day
111
and you were able to get yourself to invest $10,000 a year, what could this be worth over time?
112
And the answer is in 40 years, if this was in the S&P 500 fund, which you quoted earlier, and you earn 10% annually with reinvested dividends,
113
that stack there would grow to over $4,400,000 if you invested $27.40 a day.
114
Pass me this big, Brett.
115
Yeah.
116
So if I save half of this a day, then in, did you say 40 years?
117
In 40 years.
118
So let me give you the math on a couple of different ways of doing this.
119
Okay, so what would happen if you invested roughly half of this a day?
120
The number I use is $27.40 a day.
121
It's the magic number.
122
That equals $10,000 a year.
123
If you invested that a day for 40 years, you'd have over $4,424,000.
124
If I invest $27 a day, in 40 years, I'll have $4 million.
125
Over $4 million.
126
Let's go through the yeah buts now, because people are going to hear this.
127
Some people are going to go, wait, what?
128
And then we'll talk about where you find $27.40 a day.
129
Yeah, but $4,400,000 won't be worth a lot of money in 40 years.
130
with inflation it won't be worth that much it won't have the same purchasing power
131
my answer would be it's worth a whole lot more than zero right
132
if you're not saving any money
133
if you can't save 27.40 a day you won't have four million four hundred thousand dollars yeah
134
but with taxes you know it won't grow that much well it could
135
if it was in a retirement account you wouldn't be paying taxes on the money yeah
136
but it's not possible to earn 10 on my money Well,
137
the stock market for over 100 years has averaged over 10% annually with reinvested dividends.
138
Yeah, but the stock market's risky and complicated.
139
Well, no, it's not.
140
If you bought an index fund, it's actually not that risky and complicated.
141
Yeah, but I don't know.
142
I don't know how to get started well you could start
143
really easily you could open up a brokerage account you could
144
go to a charles schwab fidelity i mean i'm literally gonna go through them all vanguard robin hood coinbase acorns
145
and in less than 10 minutes you could open up an account
146
and be saving pick a dollar amount five dollars a day ten dollars a day 27 a day and
147
that could change your life now why is ten thousand dollars
148
steven such an important dollar amount here's what i can tell
149
you having done this for 30 years this dollar amount right here first of all this is
150
one in two americans don't have a thousand dollars in a bank account right now
151
so this is 10 times what one out of two americans have
152
but more importantly ten thousand dollars when we do surveys
153
and we ask people how much money would it take to totally change your life
154
the answer is not a million dollars the answer is not a hundred thousand dollars
155
the answer is actually ten thousand and the question is why is it ten thousand
156
and the reason is is that's about what the average person has in credit card debt
157
and they feel like they're drowning like you talked about earlier
158
and they know that that could pay off their credit card debt
159
or they have a job they don't like and they if you knew that if they had ten thousand dollars
160
in a savings account they'd quit that job
161
and they'd be free they'd have to go find another job
162
or start a business or something or start a business
163
or god forbid they're an abusive relationship and they can't leave
164
but if they had ten thousand dollars they'd leave
165
so you know a lot of people go david just make this all too simple
166
and it's true i do because when it's simple people take action on it
167
so for years i have taught this concept called the latte
168
factor a lot of people love me for it now i have a lot of people hate me for it
169
and i have taught
170
that you know we waste small amounts of money on little
171
thing i had your staff bring me a nice coffee um
172
when i started teaching the latte factor i would talk about the idea
173
that we waste five bucks a day on coffee and that
174
if you don't believe you can start saving
175
and investing at least save five dollars a day make your coffee at home
176
and people would say
177
but i don't want to give up my coffee okay well
178
then figure out another way to save five dollars a day
179
this iced coffee i don't know what cost you're in london in new york city
180
that coffee right there is nine dollars and fifty cents
181
plus a tip it's over 11 bucks i know
182
because i was just in new york
183
so today we had a bunch of props here
184
and i said well let's try to show like what what is 27.40 like
185
when i go to my hotel later
186
when i leave here a cocktail is going to be 30
187
bucks right i was just in new york city cocktail i
188
had a cocktail my hotel was 31.50 wine 50 eating out you go and have lunch today it's going to be $25.
189
And people say, well, I have to eat.
190
And I go, I know you do, but you could also ground bag your lunch.
191
It's what my grandmother did.
192
Now her friends teased her, but my grandma was able to retire to California and her friends all got stuck in Milwaukee,
193
Wisconsin where it was cold because they couldn't afford to retire the way she did.
194
How many people could actually save $27 a day?
195
Because if I go back again, just over 10 years of my life, I mean, there's no chance I could to save $27 in a day.
196
There's just no, there's just no, there's no way.
197
If you go back to what age?
198
If I go back to between like 18, 19 years old, roughly that period of my life.
199
Yeah.
200
There was no way I could have saved $27 a day.
201
Here's really the question.
202
Do you have friends
203
and do you think you have people who work with you who are making more than $50,000 a year
204
and they're not saving $27 a day.
205
They're not even saving $10 a day.
206
This is true.
207
I actually did a bit of research on this and it says approximately 40 to 50 million families, if we just take the United States, where I think there's what, 330 million people roughly?
208
Approximately 40 to 50 million families in the US can realistically save $27 a day.
209
This represents roughly the top 30 to 35% of households.
210
For everyone else, the bottom 65 to 70%, Saving that amount would require either extreme poverty-level budgeting or is a mathematical impossibility.
211
Over 40 million people they think can afford to save $27.50 a day?
212
Yes, it's based based on income and expenditure data from 2025 to 2026.
213
Approximately 40 to 50 million families in the U.S can realistically save $27 a day.
214
So for those 40 to 50 million people in the United States, that would be life-changing.
215
Now, are there people who can't afford to say that?
216
Absolutely.
217
In the United States, I was just in Arizona.
218
I just did a keynote speech.
219
I asked the audience, this is when the government was shut down.
220
I said, how many people do you think in America are taking and receiving snap checks?
221
What's that?
222
Thank you.
223
Because by the way, most Americans don't even know what a snap check is.
224
That's a check that the government gives to people for food
225
and the dollar amounts a little over six dollars a day
226
so smart people in a room by the way i didn't
227
know the answer to this a week prior either the answer is about 41
228
and a half million americans get a snap check
229
when i told the room that the room gasped i said
230
so when you wonder when you hear that the government was shut down for six weeks that was three pay cycles
231
well the average american doesn't have two weeks of expenses set aside
232
i mean i don't think everybody fully grasps the problem right
233
now four out of ten americans can't get their hands on a thousand dollars in case of merge purposes
234
if you actually dig into the federal reserve data, it's 37% of Americans can't get their hands on $400 in case of emergency purposes.
235
So there's a whole section of America that's truly struggling.
236
But there's a whole lot of America that is still struggling.
237
They're living paycheck to paycheck, but their money's being taken from them all the time because they don't have a plan for it.
238
For that bottom 60% of Americans that my research says wouldn't be able to save $27 a day.
239
The data reveals a discretionary income cliff once you drop below the top 40% of earners, the money available after bills vanishes rapidly.
240
The top 20%, which earn I think $96,000 per household, are in a surplus.
241
The middle 20% have a $15,000 surplus, which the $27 a day takes 66% from.
242
But the bottom 40% often have a roughly $2,000 surplus
243
so it's impossible for them to get to the $10,000 for that bottom 40%
244
what's the advice for them start with something okay it's like we took this 50
245
and we said cut it in half 25 i would say
246
can you save a dollar a day i have actually talked about this idea
247
really simple could you save ten dollars a day for 100 days
248
so like if you're listening to me
249
and you happen to really be struggling right now my question
250
would be could you save ten dollars a day for 100 days why
251
because it would get you your first thousand dollars
252
and you now have more than 50 of americans who don't have savings
253
and i can't tell you how many people have come back after 100 days
254
and said okay i did it wasn't easy for some people
255
saving ten dollars a day could be really really hard
256
but you're you're into fitness you saw my son who just came in here
257
fitness is built through daily action right it's built through daily
258
action daily eating well going to the gym doing certain things on a regular basis savings the same thing
259
there's a company called acorns i invested acorns back in 2015 acorns came up with an app
260
that helps you roll your change up so if i go to starbucks
261
and i spend nine dollars and fifty on a coffee, you can round it up where the 50 cents to 10 bucks is put into investments.
262
Just rounding up your change.
263
And people have saved tens of thousands of dollars over the last 10 years by just rounding up their change.

Video consigliato

Per chi è questo video?

Questo video è perfetto per chi vuole migliorare la pronuncia inglese e la comprensione conversazionale, soprattutto a livello intermedio o avanzato. Ideale per chi cerca spunti pratici su finanza e vita quotidiana, ma anche per chi vuole esercitarsi con dialoghi reali, fluidi e ricchi di espressioni colloquiali. Se il tuo obiettivo è parlare inglese con confidenza e capire discussioni spontanee, questo è un ottimo materiale per la pratica di conversazione in inglese.

Parole e modi di dire da rubare

  • Lock yourself into: "Impegnarti a" o "Bloccarti in". Esempio: "Non vuoi lock yourself into un contratto a lungo termine".
  • Home equity: "Valore netto della casa" (la differenza tra il prezzo di vendita e il mutuo rimasto).
  • Liquid: "Liquidi" (riferito a un bene che si vende facilmente). Nel video: "In USA, le case sono più liquidi".
  • Airbnb-ing them: "Affittarle su Airbnb". Un verbo creato dal nome della piattaforma, usato spesso in contesti informali.

Come migliorare la pronuncia: focus sullo speaker

Lo speaker ha una pronuncia chiara e veloce, tipica del inglese americano. Per imitarlo, usa la tecnica dello shadowing: ripeti le frasi subito dopo di lui, cercando di seguire il ritmo e l'intonazione. Nota come "mobility" (mobilità) e "opportunities" (opportunità) hanno una accentuazione sulla seconda sillaba. Per esercitarti, usa un shadowing site o un app come shadowspeak per registrare te stesso e confrontarti. Ricorda: la chiave è la fluidità, non la perfezione. Prova a ripetere frasi come "the process from putting a house on the market to legally selling it" (il processo dal mettere in vendita una casa alla vendita legale) per esercitare la connessione tra le parole. Con la shadow speak, migliorerai non solo la pronuncia, ma anche la comprensione auditiva in tempo reale!

La grammatica di questo video

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.
