Break it down into achievable milestones (first $10K, $100K, etc.).
Set SMART goals: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound.

Step 3: Increase Your Income
Maximize your 9-to-5: Get promotions, negotiate raises, or switch to a higher-paying career.
Develop high-income skills: Coding, sales, digital marketing, investing, etc.
Start a side hustle: Freelancing, consulting, e-commerce, content creation.
Invest in yourself: Continuous learning pays off exponentially.

Step 4: Live Below Your Means
Follow the 50/30/20 rule: 50% needs, 30% wants, 20% savings/investments.
Cut unnecessary expenses: Avoid lifestyle inflation.
Avoid debt (except for good debt like real estate or business investments).

Step 5: Save and Invest Aggressively
Emergency Fund: Save 3-6 months of expenses.
Invest Early & Often: Use compound interest to your advantage.
Stock Market: Invest in index funds, ETFs, and growth stocks.
Real Estate: Rental properties can generate passive income.
Businesses: Start or invest in a profitable business.

Step 6: Build Multiple Streams of Income
Earn money from different sources: Job, side hustle, investments, and passive income.
Examples: Stocks, real estate, royalties, online businesses, dividends.

Step 7: Protect and Grow Your Wealth
Get the right insurance (health, life, disability).
Diversify your investments to minimize risk.
Work with financial advisors or tax strategists to optimize wealth.

Step 8: Think Long-Term and Stay Consistent
Patience is key: Building wealth takes time.
