Building wealth takes time. 15 years is an aggressively short period to build an Engine (Capital that can earn enough to cover your expenses). Unlike saving with a picture of what you are going to spend your money on, building an Engine aims to build an ongoing source. You can’t build wealth without a source. You can’t build wealth if you consume everything that comes from the source. You DEFINITELY can’t build wealth if you consume more than what comes from the source (and live off increasing debt). Most people live hand-to-mouth. A few manage to build capital to finance their retirement. This will never change if we consume everything we produce. Time and space is needed. Establishing sources of wealth. Then creating space between our hands and mouths. Then giving proper time to let capital work. Till we can live off the fruit rather than shrinking the number of trees.
