Episode description as stored
Most people never find out when they'll have $100,000. Not because it's impossible, but because they never actually run the numbers. In this bonus episode, Ramit walks through the full picture: the compound interest math that most people ignore, the six-step system he recommends for getting to $100K, and the calculator that shows you the exact date it's going to happen for you. He also covers the four mistakes he sees people make over and over, including one that affects people who are otherwise doing everything right. No couple on the couch. No Conscious Spending Plan breakdown. Just the map.
