Ramit Sethi explains how boomers built wealth through pensions, cheap housing, and favorable policies that no longer exist. Millennials and Gen Z face a rigged game, but Sethi offers a new framework for building wealth anyway: alternative retirement strategies, modern housing approaches, and updated financial guidance.
Why is it that boomers were able to buy houses on a single income, but for young people, even saving for a down payment feels impossible? The truth is boomers built wealth in a system that no longer exists. And the worst part is after they benefited from it, they changed the rules to make sure that other people, younger people, could not do the same thing. I'm going to show you how boomers locked you out of the wealth building opportunities that they themselves had, including pensions, housing policies, and outdated financial advice. And then I'm going to walk you through the exact steps you can take to build wealth today, even in a system that was not designed for you.
