I am not lucky, I am smart.
I set aside close to 16% of what we make each month. In 6 years that means we have one years pay set aside. In 12 years that is 2 years pay.
Actually I am in year 10.7, and have 3 years pay in the bank, so I guess compounding really works.
If someone wants to "get rich quick", luck has more than anything to do with that.
If someone wants to "get rich slow", no luck is needed, just be smart.
