I am sorry- I am sure you mean well, but exactly what decade are you living in?



You also need to make tough choices early on, as a dollar saved today will multiply to more in the future. These tough choices include living well below your means, with regards to housing, clothes, eating out, etc.

It may be tough to hear, but you aren’t going to be rich passively sitting by getting a nice liberal arts degree and working for someone else. You either need to start your own business with a good idea or work long hours in business.



I know many who have tried to start a business in the last decade and if they havent’ gone under they are struggling mightily.
Savings- just aren’t what they used to be- Cost of Living goes up much faster than many investments & much faster than income.

Our buying power for my H & I is less than what we experienced thirty years ago & that is not because of a lack of hard work or effort, but comparing our income to basic expenses.
