👤 Your Timeline
At 19 with $10,000 saved, you have a massive head start. This calculator explores the three main paths to financial freedom discussed in a recent r/personalfinance thread: passive investing, real estate, and starting a business. Compare how your $10k and future savings could grow depending on where you focus your energy.
💰 Investment Details
Whether you buy index funds, save for a duplex, or fund a startup, consistent capital is key. Since your construction job is ending, focus on what you can realistically contribute from your next income source.
📈 Growth Rates
Index funds offer a passive, historically reliable return. Real estate can yield higher returns through leverage and rent, but requires active management. A successful business might return the most, but carries the highest risk of going to zero.
