Many by their late 50s or 60s are millionaires especially based on the home they bought and if it's mortgage free since lets face it for our generation 20-30 years from now the same house is going to be a lot more. Inflation!!!

It's doable but not what prospective retirees hope for. --- 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 53 ...

Yeah North America is all about spending especially how each month there tends to be a holiday where you spend money and factor in buying shit for kids, parents and other people due to birthdays it adds up quickly. Luckily I don't give a shit about that stuff. There's more to buy now than compared to like 40-50 years ago especially cheap crap. I stopped buying dumb stuff now in my 30s. I can't stand junk. I only buy when I need stuff.

We probably should add more finance education to school curriculums. As long as you don't get fucked with something like medical debt, a middle class person can build their wealth over a few decades to something substantial as long as they're not constantly buying bullshit and are reasonably smart about what loans they take. --- <insert sig here> ...

psh tell that to all the people retiring broke or forced to work until they die.These days there's so much readily accessible information on how to manage your money for retirement, there's not much excuse for young to start aside from "i didn't care at the time" or "i got fucked by student loan/ medical debt" or something along those lines. Unfortunately you really need to start in your 20s for the whole thing to work well, so a lot of people miss the window. But if you do start early enough, it is easy unless you're totally screwed by a huge, unforeseen expense. Some people have proposed basic money management be part of the high school curriculum. And seeing how many people have fucked up finances, I've come to agree. A basic hs course could probably save a lot of people from financial tragedy. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!
