I never said rich, not even one time in my post.
Listen white guy, stop trying to throw my black people off. I'm only talking about raw numbers and giving out basic information.
A lot of which is dead wrong.
This thread is about making a million dollars. You're talking about
saving 500k by 60.
Everyone understands compound interest little man.
And me being white is irrelevant
Exactly. Having 500K or even a couple million for "retirement" at 60 isn't an accomplishment. You have a million at 60, now guess what, you're 60 and life is effectively over for you.
There is some good info in the article, but the author is not accounting for income tax, living expenses, student loans, etc., expects you to get a $100k job right out of college, and basically requires you to put all your focus in to gaining revenue in your 20s.
So this is very unrealistic unless you're in NYC or the Bay and you're willing to live with your well off parents for most of those years.
It's definitely for top-tier cities (who would want to live anywhere else?), it's definitely for top-tier people (doesn't necessarily mean the most educated). You're right, it isn't for the "average" guy or "regular" people. Nothing about success is aimed toward those folks though. You sound like a real "average" guy, giving advice based on your zero success at life.

To reiterate. This blog is *
not* for
regular people. We want to help those that are *willing to help themselves*. These people will win. We believe everyone deserves access to the tools for success. What you do with those tools is entirely up to you.

A lot of dreams being sold here
First you need to get an education and employment that will allow you to bring in at least 100k if not more........
Regular guy logic. Cats haven't put in the time or effort necessary to succeed at anything in life then want to come online and offer "advice."
Funny thing is these guys are dead on with pretty much everything they talk about. Money, relationships, lifestyle, health, "game" and so on.
Again, zero competition out there for those that listen.
