 What would it take for you to feel financially secure? When you think about your life and your financial security, what number comes to mind? Like, how much do you need to pay all your bills, buy a latte without feeling guilty, and maybe have a little leftover to squirrel away for a rainy day? Would you be shocked to learn that number is $186,000? That's the number most people associate with financial security. Only 6% of us actually make that much or more.
