Brian and Bo explain why ages 32–48 create a powerful “wealth window” where rising income, compound growth, retirement investing, and smart financial planning can work together. You’ll learn why reaching your first $100,000 invested matters, how much to save for retirement, why a 20–25% savings rate can be so powerful, and how lifestyle inflation, credit card debt, housing costs, and missed 401(k) opportunities can derail your progress.
