Want to enter the top 1% of wealth in your 50s? The numbers might be bigger than you think.

According to the latest data from the Federal Reserve:
- Age 50-54: At least $13.23 million net worth
- Ages 55-59: At least $15.37 million in net worth

This is not a get-rich-quick number. Those who reach this level usually share several common points: high income + decades of compound interest accumulation + property appreciation or business success + inheritance or lucky breaks.

But here's the reality: the median net worth for those aged 50-54 is only $288,000. So you don't necessarily have to aim for 1%. The key is:

✓ Store it clearly: Automated investment, investing regularly every month.
✓ Invest Smart: Let Compound Interest Work for You
✓ Don't go into debt: High-interest debt is a wealth killer
✓ Build an emergency fund: Don't let unexpected events knock you down

The key to becoming rich has never been a number, but rather continuous good habits.
