I never set goals, that would imply priority or importance.
I set rules, that if followed will improve my financial health.
The $ will be a consequence, not the reason.
Work hard in a job you like.
Never turn extra work down.
Be frugal, sacrifice, save something every month.
Incur debt only for a home or car, save enough down payment to prevent going in upside down.
Max out 401/IRA, at least to matching limit.
More important imo, learn to say no...to yourself. Being raised poor helps in 2 ways:
$ means nothing since you never had any
You can be happy without it
I plan on leaving nothing behind other than making my wife secure. It only causes problems. Family infighting over $ is common, no one ever thinks it will happen to them, but it does. I started out with zip, my kids had a good start, no college debt, $ for a home down payment.
I never understood this $ centric society.
Especially considering when you're sucking your last breath you'd spend every $ you have for one more. A lifetime of 'wealth' for a few seconds and a liter of air. lol!
