• Future Self Visualization: Viewing an aged version of yourself can increase savings by making the future feel more personal and immediate.

• Rich Habits: Investing in experiences and relationships can provide more long-term satisfaction than material possessions.

• Target Audience: The book and app are particularly useful for individuals aged 25-45 with household incomes between $75,000 and $250,000 who are looking to take control of their finances without dedicating excessive time.
