MYTH: A six-figure salary = wealth (Vanderbilts, anyone?)

🔥

I've heard this many times: “If I just made more money, everything would fall into place.”

The truth is that high income doesn’t guarantee wealth. Habits, systems, and consistency do!!!

There are people making $250K a year living paycheck to paycheck, and people making $65K who quietly build their six-figure net worth.

Wealth grows from intentional choices: saving, investing, spending with purpose, managing credit, and preparing for the unexpected. It's what you keep and grow that matters, not just what you earn.

Most millionaires didn't hit the lottery or strike gold on crypto. They did BORING things consistently: lived below their means, invested regularly in index funds, avoided lifestyle inflation, and stayed the course through market ups and downs.

Wealth is built through small, repeated decisions over decades, not one big break. Yes, you COULD win the lottery or get a large inheritance. But discipline beats luck almost every time. Just ask the Vanderbilts. We talk about those small, consistent actions inside the Wealth Warrior Community.
