The only thing based on luck is which part of the world you are born in. But for 330 million in America, everyone can get consistent results from following basic and boring personal finance rules.

Most people with high income have a net worth far below where it should be because they don't follow that last rule. --- Do good. Eat communists. ... Copied to Clipboard! |
