Can we just stop it with these tweets? It's completely fine to see the value in a reliable safe car but to equate it with being a "dream" is just downright silly and quite frankly sad.

Hot take - Children over 21 should pay a portion of housing expenses if living with parents once they either graduate college or start working a job. The amount does not necessarily need to be an even division but the principal is an important one.

Unpopular opinion You're better off buying more expensive clothing. They last longer and look better. Thr key is knowing how much you need. Usually it's not as much as you think. A few nice clothing items go a long way. I'm talking stuff like @lululemon or 7 jeans.

I worked at an employer from 2014-2018. During that time I maxed my 401k and received a 8% match on contributions. The account is now worth 275k. If it grows at 8% over the next 20 years it will be worth 1.28 Million. 75k of my earning will balloon to 1.28M!

The way I read it, you can essentially set your kids up with a 35k roth ira when they turn 18 with this new 529 provision. With compound growth, this 35k could be worth 1 million when they turn 68 (assuming 7% annual growth) with zero taxes due.

A Million Dollar networth for someone in their 30s places them in the top 5% of their age group. By 65, a million places you in the top 20% of your age group. Both are very impressive, but begs the question, where will 1M place the 30 somethings in 30 years?
