Did You Know?
$5,000 × 22% ÷ 12 = $91.67 per month.
That's over $1,100 per year in interest alone. Compound interest is the 8th wonder of the world — but when it's working against you, it's a guaranteed negative return.
At 10% annualized returns, $200 grows to roughly $3,490 in 30 years.
Every purchase has a future price tag. This is The Waiting Tax — the real cost of spending instead of investing.
Take your biggest monthly expense. Divide it by your daily take-home pay. That's how many days you work just for that one bill.
A $600 lease at $100/day take-home = 6 of your 22 work days. Most people have never done this math.
