10 Money Moves Gen Z Should Make Before Turning 30
The episode provides aggressive financial guidance tailored for Generation Z, arguing that the decade between ages 18 and 30 offers the highest leverage for building substantial wealth. While acknowledging challenges like inflation and high debt, the text outlines ten "non-negotiable" moves designed to accelerate financial independence. These foundational steps begin with the immediate elimination of all high-interest consumer debt and the establishment of a robust emergency cash buffer, referred to as a "F*ck-You Fund." Further strategies include consistently maximizing tax-advantaged investment accounts and negotiating salary fiercely, treating it as a compounding lifetime asset. The guide also encourages readers to prioritize jobs that yield career capital over immediate high pay, while suggesting specific real estate acquisition methods like house-hacking. Ultimately, the text warns against lifestyle creep and underscores the critical importance of selecting a partner who shares the same strict financial philosophy to ensure long-term success.
“If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die.”
