333: YH "Why Your Goals are Too Low"

Published: June 7, 2018, 4 p.m.

$1 million is not a big enough goal because it doesn\u2019t give you enough money to live on if you live 20-25 years. If you just want to make $10k a month, you give the government $4k a month you spend $6k on house, car, insurance and you\u2019re out of money.

Here is the plan we made for Jarrod that made him a millionaire:

1. The right target is $10 million: Don\u2019t be selfish and say you don\u2019t need a lot, you owe it to your children and your parents.

2. No consumption at this level: Don\u2019t buy stuff to show off, Jarrod buys suits for less than $500, he leases his car, he rents his home\u2014he's not driving around in a Lambo.

3. Stay broke: Use the 40% rule, you need to make as much income as necessary to store 40% of it.

4. Invest: This is the only thing that multiplies your money

5. Repeat: Earning money and investing it isn't a one-time thing, it needs to be an on-going thing.
