About this module
This is the module everything else was building toward. Long-term wealth is not about getting lucky or earning a huge salary - it is about the patient, systematic application of everything you have learned. We cover retirement accounts, real estate, and the fundamentals of building something that outlasts you.
Key takeaways
- Contributing enough to get your employer's 401(k) match is an instant 50–100% return on that money.
- A Roth IRA grows tax-free - $6,000/year starting at 22 can exceed $1 million by retirement.
- Real estate builds wealth through appreciation, equity paydown, and rental income simultaneously.
- Generational wealth is built through assets, not income - focus on what you own, not what you earn.
