What's up, Mitu Familia?
00:01
My name is Tomas and we're out here at Zuma Dero Fest
00:04
and we're just gonna be asking people what financial advice they would
00:07
have told their younger selves.
00:08
Let's go. What's one financial advice that you would give your
00:30
younger self? Think about budgeting.
00:31
I never had a budget when I was younger.
00:33
I literally just spent and spent and spent.
00:35
00, I got a high credit card this month.
00:38
So I think the idea of planning is really,
00:40
really important when you're younger.
00:41
Don't be afraid to ask questions.
00:43
Not everybody knows even the basic terms,
00:45
just ask interest stocks,
00:47
all of it. Just go ahead and ask people ask everybody
00:49
actually save, save,
00:52
just start saving, save that money.
00:54
Even if you are only saving $2.05 dollars over a course of
00:58
time that is going to compound into financial independence and impact in
01:03
a way that if you wait until you're in your thirties or
01:05
forties, I would have loved to start investing as early as
01:08
possible and to really learn that magic of free money with compound
01:12
interest, compound interest.
01:14
Can you tell us just basic what it is.
01:17
Tell the viewers what it is.
01:18
It's like interest on the interest.
01:20
So if you invest $10 in 10 years,
01:24
It could be $1000 100,000 dollars,
01:27
depending on what interest rate you have,
01:29
the interest that you keep gaining,
01:30
that keeps reinvesting itself.
01:33
And then all of a sudden you're like,
01:34
oh my God, I'm a millionaire.
01:35
And you can't imagine that if you're just been saving like $20
01:39
but never under the mattress,
01:42
Because that will never grow.
01:44
Justin invested all the money spent on shoes and cars and girls
01:49
20 years ago. I mean,
01:51
I don't think I'd be in a much better place right now
01:53
If you could have received any financial advice when you were
01:55
younger, what would you have liked it to be?
01:59
Receive the money you deserve for the effort and the energy that
02:07
Mitu familia, you heard it here first.
02:09
Learn how to say properly,
02:10
get you some of that compound interest and know your worth.
