This Financial Advisor of 15 Years Says His Wealthiest Clients Have The Same 3 Habits
Based on the insights shared by a Certified Financial Planner (CFP), Malik S. Lee, with nearly 15 years of experience, he walks us through the common habits among his wealthiest clients that contribute to their financial success. (Business Insider)
Key Takeaways
Aggressive Saving Habit:
Wealthiest clients save at least 25% of their gross income annually, which is notably higher than the typical recommendation of saving 10% to 15% of gross income.
Despite the allure of big-ticket purchases, the most significant yearly expense for these individuals is savings.
Proficient Risk Management:
Understanding and managing risks is crucial, especially when it comes to preserving wealth against bad investment decisions, market volatility, overspending, longevity, inflation, and legal threats.
Utilizing insurance products like long-term care insurance, disability insurance, life insurance, and umbrella insurance to mitigate various risks.
Engagement of Expert Teams:
Wealthiest clients often have a team of financial professionals including attorneys, tax experts, insurance experts, and financial advisors or planners.
These experts provide not only tangible action steps but also help in controlling emotions, providing a clear financial roadmap, and keeping up with the rapidly changing financial and legal landscapes.
Amazon is Investing $4 Billion into AI Startup Anthropic
In a strategic move to bolster its standing in the competitive AI landscape, Amazon has earmarked up to $4 billion for investment in the AI startup Anthropic. This partnership not only signifies Amazon's aggressive stride towards AI supremacy but also highlights the burgeoning value and capabilities of Anthropic in the AI domain. (Forbes)
Key Takeaways
Strategic Investment:
Amazon plans to invest up to $4 billion in AI startup Anthropic to bolster its position in the AI domain, aiming to compete with tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Nvidia.
Technology Integration:
The partnership will see Amazon integrating Anthropic's AI technology into its products and services, while Anthropic will utilize Amazon Web Services as its primary cloud provider and assist in developing custom AI chips for Amazon.
Ownership and Valuation:
Amazon will acquire a "minority ownership position" in Anthropic through this deal. Anthropic, a key rival to Microsoft-backed OpenAI, was valued at around $5 billion in its recent fundraising round with backing from Google.
Previous Partnerships:
Despite a previous investment of $300 million from Google and a partnership with Google Cloud, Anthropic's new alliance with Amazon and preference for AWS as its primary cloud provider may alter its existing arrangements, although it's stated that the arrangement with Google remains unchanged.
