Wealth-Building Made Simple

Podcaster: Phillip Washington, Jr.
“The stars will never align, and the traffic lights of life will never all be green at the same time. The universe doesn't conspire against you, but it doesn't go out of its way to line up the pins either. Conditions are never perfect. 'Someday' is a disease that will take your dreams to the grave with you. Pro-and-con lists are just as bad. If it's important to you and you want to do it 'eventually,' just do it and correct course along the way.” - Tim Ferriss

Spoiler alert...Security does not comes from having cash, a certain amount of money in your 401(k), or any other outside expression. 
It must come from within.  Only then can we be assured that it cannot ever be taken from us under ANY circumstances.
