27 years old, $1 million net worth
I am a 27 year-old black woman who moved to the U.S. at 12. It has been month since I opened my empower which I finally did today and just saw I surpassed a million net worth. I invested heavily in my stock portfolio when the stocks was down since the tariff war and war with Iran so the stocks has gone up so much now especially today which I believe helped a lot.
(4 rental home equity, 401k, Roth IRA, HSA, Brokerage Account, cash), and my net worth officially surpassed $1 million in net worth (Asset - Liability) .
This doesn’t feel real because I don’t have a million dollar cash and still have to continue to save, budget, work 9-5 and invest but I thank God.
I literally did this through God and no inheritance or parent’s money. From gradually paying my student loans during my 4 years in college, working 4 jobs while being a full time student and graduating with $13k student loans in 2020 to this. I could not attend middle school graduation because my parents could not afford it. I had to travel 6 hours on a bus to college alone with two big luggage’s while I saw other freshmen parents drop them off and help them decorate their college dorm room during move in day. I am glad my children will have it different from me
Right now, I am focused on looking for a business I can start that will replace my full time job and scale exponentially and also, becoming a multimillionaire
For those that went from 1 million to multimillionaire , what business did you start and how were you able to scale ?
