If you spend 35 years to accumulate money and never earn interest on it, yeah, if somebody is that stupid, your comment is correct. That’s nothing I ever claimed though, I assume people who save aren’t total dunces.

All you ever said what not everybody can do what I said some can do. I already knew that.

I’m so glad you finally made a minimal effort to understand what I wrote! Congrats!

you never really give an intelligent response beyond this

You obviously don’t read what I write. Compound interest, go look it up.

Lol, knowing what some people can do is privilege? That’s some khmer rouge level ideology, you’re delusional. Also I’ve lived long enough in abject poverty that I think you should fuck off.

The math in my first reply showed you were wrong, that “saving a few hundred” wasn’t enough.

You can’t even do basic math, https://www.investor.gov/financial-tools-calculators/calculators/compound-interest-calculator, but thanks for playing.

Lol, you’re the one twisting everything I say. I say “people can do X” you answer with “I don’t wanna do X”. You don’t have to do what other people can do, I’m not suggesting you do what others can do. I get it, you sound angry and bitter, probably because you see no perspective for yourself. As somebody who has been sober for more than six years I’ve seen a lot of people who feel attacked when simply shown that different lives exist. I feel you.

I’d rather slave to own a house than to survive, but I don’t because I’m self employed and work for myself. Each their own. However, it’s good that you’re aware of inflation, maybe you can use the fruits of your slavery to do something against it.

I was writing about people who earn enough to save, just read my comments.

I’ve got 70 years? At 500 per month and 4% interest that’s 2.3 million, with a contribution of 0.42 million. https://www.investor.gov/financial-tools-calculators/calculators/compound-interest-calculator If you start with 210k and never input anything else you’ll even end up with more.

I know it sounds like magic, but it’s just simple math.

Yes, 2500 are not a few hundred, nobody ever said that, you’re just stating truisms while ignoring the context. You might want to read about what compound interest is.

Your comment shows exactly why not many become millionaires, because many people don’t know how to invest.

“Can be” does not imply it’s happening for everybody, are you asking me to confirm what I already said?

Not sure what you’re trying to say with this comment, except to elaborate on “can be a millionaire”?

So? Anybody who works their entire life and can save a few hundred bucks per month can be a milliionaire. You make it sound like those working people are you enemies.
