Making a Millionaire

What It’s REALLY Like to Build Wealth in the Military

Matt and Alex’s story is proof that financial independence is possible, even when starting in the red. After beginning their marriage with $35,000 in debt, they worked multiple jobs, embraced a 50% savings rate, and built a rental property portfolio across several states. Now, with a $4 million net worth before age 40, they’re planning for financial independence, legacy goals, and life beyond the military. Hear how they navigated debt, fought over pillows, and ultimately built a thriving financial future together.
