Key Insights

  • Track monthly: Small changes compound over time. Even a 1% monthly increase means significant growth annually.
  • Focus on what grows: Prioritize investments and retirement accounts over depreciating assets like vehicles.
  • Attack high-interest debt: Paying off credit cards is often the best return on investment available.
