How much money do you really need to retire, and what does a $1 million, $2 million, $3 million, or $5 million retirement actually look like?

Plus, see how much you may need to invest each month to reach these retirement savings milestones by age 65. From sequence-of-returns risk and healthcare costs to inflation, RMDs, tax planning, and estate planning, this is a practical look at building wealth, finding your retirement number, and planning for financial independence. ⁠⁠⁠⁠

⁠⁠⁠⁠Sports betting has exploded in America—but can you actually make money betting on sports, or is it quietly hurting your ability to build wealth? We look at the rise of online sports gambling, why Gen Z and young investors are increasingly drawn to betting, how sportsbooks make money, and what the numbers reveal about long-term sports betting profits. Then we compare gambling with investing, retirement savings, Roth IRAs, 401(k)s, index funds, and the opportunity cost of losing money while you’re young. If sports betting is part of your entertainment budget, here’s how to think about it without sacrificing your financial future.

Is TikTok money advice actually helping you build wealth—or encouraging costly investing mistakes? Financial advisors Brian and Bo react to viral personal finance advice about saving money, emergency funds, Roth IRAs, index funds, stock picking, taxes, entrepreneurship, and financial independence. From investing $50 a week to claims of turning $2,500 into $100,000, they separate useful financial principles from risky shortcuts. If you’re wondering how to start investing, how much to save, whether the S&P 500 can build wealth, or whether you need to own a business to become wealthy, this breakdown reveals what smart long-term investing actually looks like.

⁠⁠⁠⁠Retirement planning may need a major rethink as longer lifespans and earlier retirement stretch what was once a standard 30-year retirement into 40 years or more. Rebie and Bo explain how longevity risk, inflation, bear markets, healthcare expenses, required minimum distributions, Social Security taxes, Medicare IRMAA surcharges, and the widow’s tax can affect your retirement income. Plus, learn how tax diversification, the three-bucket strategy, HSA investing, and strategic Roth conversions can help create a more resilient retirement plan. If you’re wondering how much you need to retire, when to retire, or how to make retirement savings last, this is where to start.
