It can be hard to know what makes someone “wealthy” depending on where they are in their journey; a $100,000 portfolio at 20 is a lot different than a $100,000 portfolio at 60. Beginning with the end in mind and breaking the wealth-building journey down into smaller goals per decade can be a valuable exercise in triaging your situation. In this video, we lay out some wealth checkpoints you could shoot for by the end of each decade (20s, 30s, 40s, 50s) to assess where you are on that curve.
