| 0:06.6 | Dave, I had a call with you when I was 22 years old. |
| 0:09.6 | Am I going to be better off 20 years from now if I attacked my house if it was consumer debt? |
| 0:14.9 | Or should I just speak to the plan and invest the 15%? |
| 0:17.7 | I want you at your young age to get, you know, to get the advantage of those investments |
| 0:21.8 | starting to build. And so I would stick with a plan putting 15% of your household income away |
| 0:26.8 | in retirement. The typical millionaire pays off their home in 10.2 years and they have two primary |
| 0:31.3 | areas of their balance sheet that show up that make them millionaires, a paid for home |
| 0:36.2 | and a steady, constant investing |
| 0:39.8 | in a 401k in Roth IRAs since they were young. And they'll have seven, 800,000 bucks in the 401k, |

| 1:25.0 | So we're worth the right at about a million |
| 1:27.8 | one, maybe maybe a little bit less than that. And we have 15 acres of property that we want to |
| 1:32.8 | build a house on. My house currently is paid for. And the issue is I just bought this house two |
| 1:38.6 | years ago new. And then of course, we have a guy moving next door with his mom that just got out of prison after 20 years |
| 1:45.6 | for child crimes and it really freaking sucks that I can't let my kids in the backyard to play |
