Before I understood the almost-unbelievable magic of exponential compounding, I thought becoming a millionaire was an almost-impossible goal only achievable by the highest earners or people who were already rich. Granted, inflation has certainly shifted the meaning of a million dollars over the last 20 years-but it’s still no small potatoes.
Fortunately, we can calculate this path to the magic million with relative ease-so that’s exactly what we’re doing on the show today. If you’re trying to reach a $1 million net worth with a partner in 10 years or fewer, good news-neither partner even needs to make six figures.
Of course, the temptation is strong to try to time the market in the context of our current volatile shitstorm. We’ll address why that’s a fool’s errand, historically speaking, and discuss some ~alternative options~. (And reminder: Past performance is not indicative of future returns.)
Finally, we're joined by my friend Delyanne Barros, otherwise known as The Money Coach ( / delyannethemoneycoach ) and host of CNN's Diversifying (www.cnn.com/audio/podcasts/di.... Delyanne shares her path from being a high earner and equally high spender to becoming a millionaire on track to retire by age 45.
