Another amazing video on retirement savings or financial freedom. Great info.
Good stuff. I liked the Top Gun quip, lol. Can't wait for Maverick 🙂
Great! learned some new things again, thanks.

First time I hear this concept, the rule of 25. True, an expert in your own personal finance. Awesome break down of the breakdown.
I do a monthly budget and a Bi weekly budget. Nice video.
Uhhh! Like this Rule of 25. I read it previously under an article based on the Trinity Study. Which states we can safely withdraw 4% of our investment w/o ever running out of money. This rule of 25 is much simpler to understand. Since it's simple math not using percentages which some people are bad with. HAHA. Thanks for posting your personal simple rule!
Ohwait obviously I was typing while hearing you speak. HAHA.
Yea. The 4% rule!
Thanks still for making this 4% simpler for many of us out there!
Good informative video buddy 👍👏
Rule of 25, 4% rule. I was confused at first and thought they were different and now I always wonder why both names are so commonly used. Also gotta remember you probably won’t have the mortgage payment in retirement 🔥
Got to keep track of my monthly budget. Great video 👍
So great, some call this the 4% rule! I'm on the way; my number is pretty obtainable! Might just go for the 3% withdrawal rate to be safer
Nice video. One note: I dont think the 4% rule is applicable for dividend investors. We never sell the nest egg, as we receive dividends. Rather, a future yield on cost is applicable in my opinion, which could be higher than 4%.
Sweet! Never used the "rule" really, but basically 250K portfolio at age 55 retirement/ age 62 portfolio will be 100K/ Wife collects SS at 62/ I collect SS at 70…easy peezy lemon squeezy
The rule all F.I.R.E members use
Great video

Another way to look at it: 4% dividend is fairly easy to get, so once you are in retirement your money stays at the same value and you live off the dividends. My number was 600k however I have had to change it, since I’m already there, I multiplied my number by 4 mainly to ensure that my kids have a better future also. Great video as always!
lol, i had a pup names maverick when i was growing up. this was a fun one for an investment beginner like me. my number is about a million, which works out for how long i have to build wealth before i'd like to be retired. thanks for this useful video.
I was looking forward to the Bigfoot, I mean Goose sighing. lol. I think the 4% rule 25x was made popular in recent times by MMM. For me, I'm targeting 3.5% withdraw rate. I think it's safer for someone FIRE'ing in 30's to do 3%, 40's 3.5% and 50's plus 4%. But maybe I'm too conservative. This is assuming no pension. 🙂 Love your work Ricky.
Classic rule that people need to know about
I never heard of the rule of 25 thank for this! I been budgeting a lot lately and trying to save every penny and invest it so I can become financially free, calculated the retirement fund I need and I am nowhere close, still, lot work needs to be done!
Hiya Ricky and Happy New Year! I've been away for a while and I'm having a great day checking in with some of my fave YouTubers. Your content is sooooo helpful and specific and relatable. Thank you for these four steps. Now I'm off to watch your video on debit vs. credit cards – eeps!
Rick you did an excellent job explaining this rule. You share the most applicable info on how to prepare financially for retirement
Solid video Ricky. And I like the new edits. Expanding that production tool bag
Never knew about rule of 25! But I already figured what my monthly expenses when I retired. So I build my best eggs to generate enough income to cover more than what I need just in case. Good video Ricky.👍 Learn something new everyday!😁
You had me cracking up at the beginning of the video Ricky 😂
Very cool video, liked your transitions. KEEP CALM and COLLECT DIVIDEND$
My number is $900,000. I was aiming for 1.25 million using the 4% rule but I like this even better. Thanks for sharing Ricky!
The rule of 25 something Im hunting for myself. Good video! almost 400 subs. Your going hard 💪
Great video Ricky! I didn't know much about the rule of 25! Always great information here! Have a great weekend my friend!

Join you hope you will also support me
It's definitely a good method for that ball park figure. I like 3.5% or even 3% as my rule of thumb. Just like that buffer
Ahh yes, the rule of 25. Like you mentioned that and it's better known cousin the 4% are good solid indicators to go buy when accessing where you stand with your financial freedom goals. Also, gotta love Tyrone Biggums! Good video 👍
Awesome, another great analysis, i heard about the rule of 25 but you actually explained it well. dividend i think is the best way to make money. keep it up. thumbs up. i like them , happy new year.
