For what it's worth, a spare $500/mo is never going to happen. I think I was 33 before I had an extra $500/mo.

- damon_c 6y agoIf you had reduced your latté consumption by just 5 lattés per day you'd have had that spare $500.
- selcuka 6y agoThat means I have to make and sell 4 lattés per day, which doesn't seem probable.
- annoyingnoob 6y agoYou just need to invest in an automatic espresso maker to have your 5 lattes a day at a reasonable price.
- loeg 6y ago$500/mo is $6k/year. There are definitely people for whom that is not possible, but there are a lot of people for whom that is possible. If you work in software, odds are pretty good you're in the latter category, even at the start of your career. $1M as a target is chosen arbitrarily, and often people save less earlier and more later; it's a simplistic model. (As financial advice: you should still save, even if you can't save $500/mo.) "Never going to happen" is probably overstating it.
