I think you're forgetting about high yield savings accounts. You could easily have 603$ by the end of that time

I'm 45 and I have ~$10k in savings.

I'm a driver, I'm a winner. Things are gonna change, I can feel it

This strategy does work, but only if you've been spending $100,000 a year on lattes.

I think you mean "less debt" not "$600"

For the literalists out there, the $600 amount is actually irrelevant. The joke is that there would be an amount of money that won't do anything truly life changing for you.

Life is like one of those free to play mobile games that’s fun at first, but then turns into a pay to progress or just endlessly grind once you get to the buy a house part of the game.
