Ep199 - How to Reach Your Number

So much of the anxiety we feel around money doesn't come from a lack of income, it comes from a lack of clarity.

In this practical and grounding episode of Money with Alpha, Alpha walks you through a simple but powerful exercise to help you identify your retirement number. Not to overwhelm you, but to give you something solid to aim for.

If the future feels like a big black hole…
If you're doing "all the right things" but still feel unsure…
If money feels like one more thing you don't have the mental space to deal with…

This episode is for you.

Alpha breaks down:

• Why uncertainty fuels money anxiety

• How having a number changes your present-day decisions

• A simple, step-by-step way to calculate your retirement target

• How to assess your current net worth (without judgment)

• What to do once you see the gap, and why it's not as scary as it sounds

• The small, realistic money levers that actually move the needle

• Why momentum matters more than perfection

This isn't about scrimping, sacrificing, or living a joyless life now for a future that may never come.
It's about clarity, intention, and balance, so you can enjoy your life now and later.
