Enjoy More 30s: Family Finance

Recapping easy traps people tend to fall into when it comes to money and saying good bye to Joe's game show voice!

  • Someone who saves $500 a month at 10% for 30 years, winds up with over $1.1 million. Someone who waits 10 years and then starts the same exact program would wind up with less than $400,000. (01:44)
  • For a young family, your future income potential is your greatest asset. If you make $100,000 now, then over the next 30 years at 2% wage growth, you would bring in over $4 million. A huge asset that is exposed by not having disability insurance protection. (03:18)
  • Spending a greater percentage on our budget on cars and houses and other shiny objects can feel great and simultaneously, it can push us farther away from being millionaires. (07:14)
