 Hey, what's up YouTube? I'm Zeke and welcome to The Dream Green Show. Today, I just reached over 2,300 roundups on my Acorn account. So I'm going to go over my full account and show you guys exactly how much money I saved up with over 2,300 roundups. If you guys don't know what Acorns is, the Acorn app is an app that helps you save money. Every time that you spend money on your card, you swipe your credit card or you swipe your debit card, it'll round up to the nearest dollar and invest your change into your Acorns account and then it'll invest it into the stock market. For example, if I was to buy something that was $1.50 at the store and swipe my card, it'll round up to the nearest dollar, which would be $2 and invest that 50 cents into my Acorns account and then eventually all the change will add up and then they'll start investing your money into the stock market. I've been doing this a little over a year now and I just reached over 2,300 roundups. I'm going to show you guys exactly how much money I saved invested into the stock market from using my Acorns account. And also Acorns is running at special right now. So if you sign up and fund your account, you'll get a free $5 and I'll get a free $5. And if you tell 5 EVL friends to sign up for Acorns, right now they're investing an extra $300 into your account. So this will be a great way to kickstart your account where everyone's locked up in the house. Under quarantine, you guys can start investing and getting ahead of your friends and then you could be the one to actually put your friends on. If you're the first one to it, don't let your friends beat you to it. But enough talking, let's get straight into the video. Here we go, guys. I have my Acorns account pulled up. As you guys can see over the last 30 days, I invested $209.90 from investing $10 every single week and also rounding up my pocket change when I swipe my card to my roundups. And I have that on a multiplier times two to find out what that means. Make sure you stick to the end of this video so you can find out exactly what does that mean. If we click on view my roundups, I'm going to show you guys I have over 2300 roundups so far in my lifetime of using Acorns. 2302 to be exact. So I just surpassed the 2300 mark. The total amount of money I have invested into Acorns from just my money alone is $1,970.01. That is money that I invest every Friday and from my roundups. And as you guys can see, I do a horrible job at cooking. I eat out at H.E.B., Chick-fil-A, Water Burger, Home Depot, McDonald's, going to a bar to get a drink. So yeah, I've done a horrible job. I need to cook more and eat out less. Picking up burgers at all of these spots, especially the bar and grill. Just drive through, pick up the burger. I'm not sitting around a whole bunch of people doing quarantine. I just go pick up a burger, swipe my card. And as I swipe my card and invest that change into the Acorns account, putting me above 2302 roundups. So if you guys are wondering exactly how much money does that add up to be, let's back out and scroll up. So I have $3,450.77 invested into my Acorns account. That is a major profit for me. I do tell a couple of my friends to sign up. So I do get $5 here and there from my referrals. And then the other amount is from my roundups, my Friday investment and from the dividends from Acorns investing into it. And then also the appreciation. My portfolio is an aggressive portfolio. I started off on aggressive and I never changed it. I never went to conservative. I probably should have. If if someone had a conservative Acorns account, let me know how did the stock market crash from the quarantine news? You know, you can't say the word on YouTube. How did that affect your account compared to my aggressive portfolio account? I want to see how did it affect your account because it affected my account in a big way. I am just now bouncing back into the positives on my Acorns account from the market going down from us being in quarantine. But I do have an aggressive portfolio. Like I said earlier, I have my roundup settings on automatic times two. You have the options of having on times two times three or times 10. That means if I have to round up 50 cents and multiply that times two and invest a dollar into my Acorns account times three will be a dollar 50 cents. And then times 10 will be there invest five dollars into your Acorns account. If my math correct, I could be wrong. All right. So I got two cards linked into my Acorns account. That's all I need. I don't need to link any more cards. I'm doing enough saving right now on my Acorns account. I'm pretty satisfied with where it's at. If you don't want to leak your credit card and you just want to get your feet wet into the stock market, you can also click right here one time. You click on the one time investment and you have the option to invest a minimum of five dollars up to any dollar amount that you want. So five dollars, twenty five dollars, fifty a hundred. But if you want to come down here and just invest five hundred dollars and say, hey, Acorns, here you go, grow my account. You could do that if you don't want to leak your card. But if you're going to invest that way, you might as well just go and buy stocks on your own. But Acorns for me is a great way to save money without you even noticing that you're losing money coming out your bank account just based on the fact that it's just investing your pocket change. If I click on recent activity, I have two thousand nine hundred and seventy five dollars and nine cents dividend. So far, sixty one dollars and thirty five cents found money. That mean I use that platform. I bought something on that platform and then they reimbursed me for using their coupon six dollars and forty cents. Referrals. I've been telling friends for about two years now to sign up on Acorns. A couple of my friends have signed up. If you guys also want to sign up, the link will be down in the description. So I got a hundred and fifty dollars for my friends. And the last month was my first time getting four friends to sign up in a single month. And I'm going to show you guys right now that they did credit my account two hundred and fifty dollars for getting four of my friends to sign up. This month is even better. If you get five people to sign up, you will get a free three hundred dollars credited to your account. So that Acorn are true to their word. If you get your friends to sign up, they will credit your account. And this is a great way to boost your to to kickstart your Acorns account. All right. So let's get into the nitty and gritty. If we click on performance, my all time performance. I am up twenty nine dollars and fourteen cents. Yeah, it would be much, much higher if the bad news never came out right around here. It took that big dip right there. And now, like most accounts, even my Robin Hood account and many other investors, we are just now getting out of the red and back into the green. Okay. So I'm actually up twenty nine dollars and fourteen cents. But remember to add on my referrals and then I told four friends about it and then I also get my dividends into it. So it would be a little bit more than thirty dollars, a lot more than thirty dollars than I made from Acorns. I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but at one point I was up almost seven hundred dollars from Acorns and now we're down and now we're back up. So don't let that scare you right now. This is a great way to save money for your vacation or if you're trying to save up to buy something. This is a great way to save and also a great way to invest not only just save, but a great way to invest. So now let's take a look at my account value breakdown. If we swipe down right there in dollar amount. Remember, this is an aggressive portfolio and dollar amount. I have six hundred and ninety three dollars invested into large company stocks. If we click on that, let's click on that. It is a ETF is a Vanguard ticker symbol VE a Vanguard FTS E over the last year. They're down two dollars and ninety nine cents seven percent. The fifty two regrange their lowest twenty eight dollars and forty six cents and that high is forty four dollars and sixty seven cents. So it went all the way down real low. That's when everybody account had took a big hit, but now it's starting to recover. It is at thirty eight dollars and seventy two cents in the last all-time high of the last year is forty four dollars and seventy sixty seven cents. So we got a little waste go before we recover, but it's doing pretty good so far. The next one I have the most money invested into is one thousand three hundred seventy six dollars and that's my large company stocks. If we click on that, that is ticker symbol VOO. I actually have this one in my Ryber hood account as well. This is a great company of the last year. They're up nine dollars and fifty nine cents. So even with the bad news, they are still up fifty two Reek range. The low was two hundred dollars and fifty cents in the high was three hundred and eleven dollars and fifty nine cents. The next one is six hundred and ninety four dollars is sixty small company stocks and that would be ticker symbol VB Vanguard small caps of the last year. There are down eight percent thirteen dollars and thirty eight cents fifty two Reek range ninety five dollars for the low and one hundred and seventy dollars for the high. So that is a big swing right there. It's looking like they're starting to recover right here if we're looking at the chart of the last six months and then one month they're up. So they got a little waste to go before they fully recover but that is a part of the risk you take when you have an aggressive portfolio like I have the next one is emerging market stocks. I have three hundred and forty eight dollars and fifty eight cents investing to emerging market stocks that is ticker symbol VWO is a Vanguard emerging market stocks right now over the year. They're down six point five six percent fifty two Reek range. The low is twenty nine dollars and ninety six cents and the high is forty five dollars and ninety two cents. So that is the fifty two Reek range on ticker symbol VWO and the last one that I have is real estate stocks three hundred and thirty eight dollars and ninety four cents. If we click on that that is the Vanguard Reek index ETL ticker symbol VNQ. They are down eleven percent the fifty two Reek range the low is fifty five dollars and the high is ninety nine dollars. So real estate is taking a big hit in the market. It looks like it has a long way to recover from all of the stocks just looking at the charts alone today they're doing pretty well the last six months they're doing horrible and over the last year we have a long way to go to we fully recover in the real estate market. So yeah there it goes my account is at three thousand four hundred fifty dollars I've been doing this a little over a year now almost two years I when I look at my bank account I rarely notice that three or four or five dollars a week is getting pulled out of my account to go find my acorns account. I mean I know it's gone there but you really don't see the big lump sum hey let me deposit three hundred dollars into acorns or three thousand dollars into acorns to invest into the stock market. No it takes a little bit at a time as you swipe your car if you don't use your car don't you want to invest but if you swipe and keep using your change eventually the little acorn that's the hall model the little acorn will eventually grow to be a great big oak tree. So that's a part of their big investment strategy over on acorns is to invest a little at a time and eventually and eventually the exponential growth will will outweigh the little investments that you're doing over time it will start growing at a curve very very fast. So that is my acorns account. All right guys there we go that is my full acorns account with over two thousand three hundred roundups into my acorns account I've made I will have three thousand five hundred dollars into my acorns account remember you could probably catch me if you have way more friends to me I don't have that many friends so you if you're one of the first of your friends to get someone to sign up you can you can get three hundred dollars and catch me and pass me up so much quicker than I could even grow my acorns account.
