how one saves $100k at 24 yrs is the big question? I barely got done with my studies at that age! Is this an inheritance?

Not that difficult with a decent tech job and being a miser.

Not that difficult? I think it is impossible.
Graduate with 4yr degree at 22, so are you saying in 2 yrs he saved 100k?

I just wanted clarification with his statement of "saved up", getting an inheritance is not "saving up".

I misread, my apologies. For some reason I thought he said he graduated for 4 years with a tech degree on some other thread. 4 years with a tech degree (right tech degree) and living extremely skippy is entirely possible, including your 401k. I did at least. I was also assuming the person doesn't have student loans. If one does, that's not that easy either. BTW: at 22, I was almost done with a masters if I stayed an extra 6 months, so there are people who get finish 4 years of school and  and through in a 1 year masters program. if there's enough AP credits going into your first year, your first year really becomes your second. I got tired of studying so I opted to enter the workforce. Back in the good ole days when rent was $660/month.Then again, I hopped around, so my salary went with wherever i went (not proud of it now).
