This is why the rich get richer.

Not because they're smarter, but because compounding is doing the heavy lifting.

And now you're on the right side of the equation.

Your first 100K will feel like the longest, slowest, most frustrating phase of your financial life.

But after that, finally, finally, the math starts working for you.

As long as you stay consistent, keep lifestyle creep low, and

keep your eye on that long term game, you will get there.

For today's tip, you can take straight to the bank.

If you want to make your own plan to 100K, you can use the free compound interest calculator that I have on my website for my course, The Money School.

You can play around with different monthly investment scenarios or different time horizons, and the calculator will do the math for you.

And again, this is completely free just for you to use as you are plotting your six figure life.

I recently went on a quick beach trip with my husband for a little couples time, and it was perfect.

Do you know what else can give you that feeling?

Co-hosting with Airbnb.

Trust me on this one.

Hosting your home on Airbnb while you're away from home is a great way to make some extra cash and make sure your home is working as hard as you do.

But knowing where to start can feel overwhelming.
