Stuck in mediocrity.

No matter what you try, you just can't seem to escape it.

Well, it's not your fault, and I'm going to tell you why.

And I'm also going to tell you how to get out of your mediocre financial

rent on today's episode of Financial Freedom Friday. Go to school, get good grades, get a high paying job, buy a house house max out your 401k and here's the latest recommendation being

piled on top of all that mediocre advice. You see you could save 10 bucks a week every

week for the rest of your life if you just cut out

two lattes per week. None of that old antiquated device is going to make you

wealthy, none of it, especially eliminating the coffee thing. I don't know why everyone's piling up on coffee.

And I'm more than comfortable saying that this advice won't get most people even to a comfortable

middle-class status either. You know, when you consider the median income in America is $48,000 per the Census Bureau

and in their latest report it's also pointed out that 15.2% of Americans live below the poverty line.

Now that's a snapshot of today, but over a lifetime it doesn't get

any better as per the Department of Health and Human Services shows in their

studies that 95% of today's 65 year olds are not prepared to retire and that includes all demographics from all levels of income

That crappy advice to work work work and save save is part of the typical mainstream mediocre BS that you're fed daily. This advice is everywhere.

You can't escape it.

You know, radio personalities and TV and magazine articles, the front of a page of a Bloomberg

and the bloggers. it's a daily

bombardment of mediocre advice streamed from mediocre people that leads

95% of the population to their 65th birthday
