Day 71 4 Millionaire mountains

The four millionaire mountains are The internet, The stock market, Business, Real Estate. The odds are that if you make a million dollars, it's through one or a combination of these mountains.

Tonight I spent time with a friend learning to pick Mutual funds. The point being to obtain a return of 10% per year for 56 years by putting away 1dollar or Euro per day. With compounding, this equals 1 million dollars. A goal is a to have picked a portfolio in 3 weeks time.

This sets the definitive path to 1m dollars, and mentally it goes from "if I become a millionaire", to "when I become a millionaire". Sure it's 56 years away, but once on the path you can work out ways to bring the length of time down.
