I see money claims online that sound brilliant, impossible, or too good to be true.
So I run the numbers.
Bitcoin. Investing. College savings. Real-life money questions.
No guru talk. No fake flexing. Just the math.
You bring the claim. I’ll bring the calculator. ⚡️
MarketWatch says here's the net worth you need to "get ahead" by decade.
Ran the numbers a different way: what if that same money had gone into Bitcoin instead of sitting in a savings account since 2020?
The "getting ahead" number changes a lot depending on where you put it.
Some of these students didn't owe Howard money. Howard owed them.
They still got the unenrollment email.
The problem was never "kids not paying attention." It's that most families have no way to see the real, final number until it's already too late to fix it.
5/ "How much do I actually need to retire? "Not "a million dollars." Not a number you saw on TikTok. Your number is a function of your monthly spend, not your age or your salary.
Two people making the same income can need completely different amounts.
Most people carry all 5 of these questions around for decades and never actually run the numbers.
That's the whole point of this account.
4/ "Am I saving too much or too little for my kid's college?"
Everyone panics about the sticker price.
Almost nobody pays the sticker price.
You're probably planning around a number that isn't even real.
Public college tuition is now $11,950 a year.
That’s the sticker price.
Families need the planning price:
what college may actually cost,
what they want to cover,
and which paths could lower the bill.
The sticker price starts the argument.
The planning price starts the plan.
