"We have $30k in cc debt but insist on sending our son to private school"

Alexis, 55, and Olivia, 54, are working towards their retirement so they can spend more time with their son. On paper, they’re in a good financial position, with a net worth of over $3 million… but they’re spending more than they make every single month. And, there’s a big secret to their wealth that they didn’t realize until this conversation.
